The Mindset of Money Management Part II

There is an energy to money and how it responds to the actions of an individual. You may have read and heard studies regarding this topic; while it may seem like some hooey...there is allot of truth to what transpires when money is not handled properly. People lose money all the time and money is made somewhere in the world by someone. All this is incredibly true and we know this because we "see" it. We see people making money doing all kinds of things. What we don't see is their habits, their conditioning, their actions and their resources to achieve the results their getting. In this article post, I am going to outline some tools I know that work and you can use to establish a better connector to your efforts in whatever goals you are after. This is part II to another article that was featured in HBA magazine and you can read that here.  

It has been well documented that what you think about it, you truly bring about in your own life and circumstances. Where money is concerned, that would be also true because in the lives of people I coach and mentor, they are often afraid about their future, their job situation, their finances. The fear they focus on so much, destroys the good in their lives in such a way that they overspend and when that money passes through their hands, it sends an energy to its destination and the results can be not so good. How can you stop this ugly wealth cancellation in your own life? Consider these tips to start.

1. Recognize YOU deserve to have money and what it can provide for you.

• Families often pass on the broke money mindset to their children. They must know that they can have and become what they dream about. That sneaking guilt kills the potential and robs the joy in discovering what their future could mean for them and you.

2. What YOU do today, directly impacts YOUR tomorrow.

• If you chose to not carve out time to read and educate yourself on why an extra $50 a month can help you pay off your car, your not taking your situation seriously. That same $50 which you would otherwise spend on Happy Hour once a week, could be your ticket to a better life and some greater opportunities.

3. Failure is simply another "F" word in the dictionary. It never defines you in the way, your own mind may think it does. Failure means:

• Not now
• Not with that person
• Not in that way
• Not by yourself
• Not your way
• Not forever

Failure destroys faith, focus, finances, friends and family because of the way YOU you look at a given situation. Money responds to all these things and we can control allot of this, by taking some personal inventory of what we want and need. After that is identified who and where can we get those needs from crucial. All the while, a certain level of responsibility exists for YOU in every area. 

Some key points to keep close in development:

Failure does not own you. Money can control you if you let the failure mindset in. 

Focus on your true desire with what that money can bring YOU and those you love; from there balance sets in at the core of your most intimate existence.

Finances are the overall result of your planning and commitments. They represent a broader effort.

Friends need to supportive of YOU...period.

Family is the ultimate to see any aspiration through. They will work your nerves and often challenge your core values. They may or may not understand why YOU are the way you are, but that is why they represent the hardest test you may ever face. Find a way to bridge the gap. Money and family can be a tough road, but in that test, you'll learn more about the world and how to be successful in it with what you earn and invest.

Money can be your greatest asset if you work on how you use it.
