Master your money and don’t be mastered by it. Part 1
Mindset
If you never change the roots, you will never change the fruit.
For so many people, your problem is your mindset.
No, someone will share, I do not have enough money? Or someone else may share it is their fault.
Perhaps you are right there. Maybe you are low on cash, and someone has hurt you.
However, the way to move forward is your mindset.
So many people have a defeatist mindset. It will never change, they say. Or we become so comfortable with being mastered by money.
As long as you think it will never change, it will not.
If we are not careful, we will comfortable, and someone will move the cheese.
We can pour our energy into complaining and whining, or we can begin to take steps to leave that exhausting life behind.
“Positive thinking will not let you do anything, but it will let you do everything better then negative thinking will.”(Zig Ziglar)
Things do not just happen. They come about by repeated, systematic routine.
If you are not willing to work, then you will not move forward. It is going to be hard work, and you will experience challenges. Welcome to life. We either learn from the trials, or we die.
What will be your choice?
Do you want to master your money, then choose to learn, choose to change, and master it, so it does not master you?
If you are going to master your money and master your life, it starts with the mindset.
Steps moving forward
1)Take a personality test and get to know yourself. Try this one. https://tests.enneagraminstitute.com/ or https://www.yourenneagramcoach.com/?vgo_ee=Kh0ZjJnubHuVQ1hg%2BftE7hwUnRnlmwiuCIJkd9A7F3A%3D
2)Reflection question –
- Growing up, who shaped your way of thinking about money? What is the view?
- What choices have you made that lead to where you are? Where do you want to go?
4)List out negative root mindset changes that you have to make?
