Determine your money mindset for financial success.

Do you know that your limiting money mindset could be the road block for your financial success? What is money mindset? It is actually your personal perception about what is money to you? Ask yourself, what money means to you?

Money is simply a tool for us to use for living. Just like knife, it must be used for the right purpose of cutting materials but used wrongly, it could kill people. The knife can also injure the person using it, if used inefficiently. As for money, it is a tool to be used to live a life or as a source of power, or to help people, but it could also consume and destroy you if used inefficiently. Money can help make your dreams come true or destroy you. Money influences everything and everyone.

All of us have experienced or have seen people who made so much money to live a luxurious life but later, you find them broke. How is possible? They must be a reason for their failure after great success. Some people struggle to make ends meet and you feel for them, then one day, you see them driving an expensive car, dressed up and living a thriving life. Was it their hard work? You will always see the cover of the book, only if you read it you will get the facts. You only see the outside of success or failure of a person but unless they tell you about what went through their mind to gain success or why they failed, you will not know.

You spend half of your life working to make money by giving up so much more valuable matters such as your health, your time, your family, your integrity, your dignity for a tool. Today, the tool called money is just a number in a banking system. It’s not gold or even paper. But, imagine what it does to your feeling, your thoughts and your perception. If you don’t have it, you get worried and stressed. The more you have it, you feel like you own this world. The reality is, you are not after money but you are after what money could give you, a good life, comfort and luxury.

You are chasing after money to make you feel great and satisfy your emotions. So, you must have a correct money mindset to be successful with your finances. It is the balancing of your money mindset that matters. Money could be a source of power to you, a source of security, a source contribution, a source for your success. A freedom to live as you wish.

Some people have a security mindset, that they are so afraid to spend money for even a small pleasure for themselves. When they passed on, they leave behind so much money that they did not really lived. There is no wrong or right here, it’s just that people concentrate one hundred percent on their security which prevents them to see other matters which are important too. There are people with a giving mindset and never worry to give their money away until they have none. They want to be contributors to society and they donate without much thinking. These are the type of people who attract others to come to them for asking money, for a loan and never pay back. Somehow, people know that you are the giving type.

There are others with a power mindset which makes them abandon their integrity; they are willing to take bribes or give bribes so long they achieve their wants. Without money, they feel useless, they feel like a complete failure. A power mindset could bring great success if used positively.

It is your money mindset which will determine the amount of money you will have. Look into yourself to find out what money is, to you. If your mind says that you don’t deserve so much, then you will never be able to make so much money. On the other hand, if you feel that you deserve to have plenty of it, you will attract that money to you. Your money mindset is very important for your financial success. Look at your mindset. Are you having the right money mindset?
