Change and Mindset are Partners for Success with Money
We have often heard that change is constant. Everything changes but not always when we would like it to change. When it comes to money, many of us realize that something has to change so we can get more and/or keep more of our money. The most important thing that has to change is our mindset. A decision to change is good but change has to go further than a decision. That’s a great first step. Now, let’s talk about the rest.
A budget, planning, and goals are definitely very important. We are not going to abandon them. Goals help to determine what we want to do with our money. A budget helps us to reach our goals and see where our money is going. Planning works with a budget so our money “knows” where to go instead of just going. Many of us know about money going and not knowing where it went. If you don’t change your mindset, then none of these tools is going to help you to make a change with your money.
Your spending and use of money is based on how you value money. How you value money determines your money mindset. If your money mindset is not helping you to reach your financial goals and/or maximize your money, then you most likely have to change your mindset about money. Read more about money mindsets here. In order to increase your chances of success when you decide to make a change in your life regarding your money, make sure to include a change in your mindset too. All the best.
