Mind Your Money ~ Transform Your Life
Why do some people earn as though they were born for wealth while others barely manage to fill a savings account?
Simon Sinek asked exactly that in this book, "Start with Why." His answer? Money is a mirror that reflects your purpose, your beliefs, and your values.
Your "why" means everything.
If you think you were born to live a life of lack it will find you.
If you think you will never have enough money to live an abundant and meaningful life, you will probably never track down that glittering savings account that inspires you to set money aside.
But if you believe wealth is an equal opportunity outcome, you can have it.
It Starts with Intent-
Before you start knitting a sweater, you consider your intent. Do you want a cozy winter garment or a refined, gorgeously-draped evening shawl?
Your intent helps you to find the right pattern and, without that, you can't know the weight of your yarn or the diameter of your needles.
Money relationships start in the same way: with a clear intent to show you where you're going and how you'll get there. Without a pattern, you’ll be left with a knot of wool that only a cat could love.
The world’s wealthiest people have a few thought habits in common, and intent is one of the most universal.
Writer, Tom Corley, found that 80% of rich people and only 12% of people with less are focused on a financial goal.
The wealthy knit according to the same pattern all day, every day while the others drop stitches and lose track of the shape they are trying to create.
Creating your Pattern
When Tom Corley set about researching the money habits of the rich, he found that wealthy people comparison shop for financial products and negotiate before signing their contracts far more often than medium-income earners.
While the wealthy are paying attention to the details, the rest of the world is focused on its fears.
Facing your financial weaknesses is a terrifying task, but money doesn’t forgive fear.
Once you have faced your financial reflection with all its flaws, and challenges, you will finally manage to match your intentions to your behaviors.
This isn’t easy work, but it is necessary work.
Of course, you should not focus only on your failings.
It’s your gifts and talents that will light your way into a glowing future, so you will need to take a long look at that part of your reflection, too.
Every positive thing you have today is the result of your best self, so take inventory of the most exquisite things you see in the mirror.
Which skills have rewarded you most so far?
What are your successes? List them and reflect on them every day to inspire you.
How can you leverage them to accomplish more than you thought you ever could?
What unique powers do you have to offer the world?
Those are the tools you will use to craft a new life. Wealthy people aren’t better than others.
They just found their super power and became aware of their kryptonite. No matter how carefully you handle the thread of your life, knots will happen, but if you plan how to untangle them ahead of time, you can have it.
