Hi, Anthony Moore, this article was so timely as I made a commitment today to reassess my relationship with money. As you’ll see from my Medium profile I am the co-host of a podcast called “What Is Money,” that aims to unlock what we affectionately refer to as the “knowledge currency of economic freedom.” Yet, selfishly we could would both admit that part of the reason we launched the show was for the very purpose of examining “what we don’t know that we don’t know” about money.

While journaling today I was reminded of something that wealth guru Robert Kiyosaki constantly preaches, namely that most of us “work hard for our money versus allowing our money to work for us.” This is a paradigm I intend to embrace — the proverbial right side of the Cash Flow Quadrant which involves redirecting ones focus to that of a Business Owner and Investor.

Your article also reinforced the importance of nurturing one's thoughts and growth mindset pertaining to money. I’ve determined that this is a much better use of my time than spending on Instagram posting pictures for likes about my Paleo lifestyle. LOL

In any event Anthony, great piece. — Michael
#30DayWritingChallenge (Day 19): If Money Was Not An Issue, I’d Be Beyonce

I’m kidding. Well, only half kidding. If I didn’t have to worry about money ever again, I’d take a break. I’d take my first real break in six years, and then I’d travel for at least the next one year.

I’d travel and then I’d write about it. I’d write about the people, the food and what it feels like to live a life of luxury because if I’m not worried about money, I must have a lot of it.

I’d take that one year to really breathe and just chill. I wouldn’t worry about my bad habit of procrastinating or spending way too much time on Instagram. I wouldn’t care that I have responsibilities and that I need to be a provider for my family. I’d forget about everything the world has told me about being an adult and I’d just enjoy my life for the first time in God knows when.

If I’m lucky, maybe I’ll have a partner to spend this one year with, a partner who also wants to take one year to just chill. That would be heaven on earth.

After our sabbatical is over, I will come back rejuvenated and ready to prove that Nigeria’s problems don’t need rocket science to solve. They just need people with money and power who care enough. That is who I need to become.
3 Bad Money Habits You Need to Get Rid Of
By: Anggun Bawi
Tags: Self, Money Mindset, Self Improvement, Habits, This Happened To Me

Sometimes we don’t realize our bad habits are the ones preventing us from making more money in life. I’ve seen all the time that people tend to underestimate the power of their mindsets and beliefs when it comes to money.

If you’ve been wondering why you are stuck financially, it’s time to ask yourself whether you have any of these bad habits or not.

You Have Negative Thoughts About Money

“We all have the ability, through our thoughts, to harness the power of the Universe.” — Jen Sincero

Most people have a love and hate relationship with money. They love it when it’s around and hate it when it’s nowhere to be found. I used to be of those people until I realized this habit didn’t serve any good purpose in my life, and instead, it drained my energy.

So if you want money to be on your side, you need to stop thinking negatively about it. Because the more you curse it, the more it’s hard to come to you. What you focus on becomes your reality, remember?

You Hold Tight to Your Old Limiting Beliefs

Have you ever questioned your deep beliefs about money? If you come from a background that thinks money is hard to find, and there’s only so much you can do to get it, then you need to let go of those old limiting beliefs. Recreate new beliefs about money that’s healthier and making you feel good every time you think about it.

“One of the biggest obstacles to making lots of money is that we refuse to give ourselves permission to become rich.” — Jen Sincero

You Keep Saying You Are Broke

If you take a closer look, rich people don’t like to say something that makes money works against them. They are very careful with what comes out of their mouth. This is because they have a healthy mindset about it, and talking bad about ourselves or about money wouldn’t help them get far in life.

So before you say something like “I can’t afford it” or “I’ll never have that much money,” think again and change with something more positive instead.
Money is a Tool

Daunting.

Starting a business is daunting. There are so many things I don’t know. Some days it feels like there are even more I don’t know I don’t know yet!

What I do know is God called me to start this business. So, I keep saying yes.

I’ve always had ideas for making money. Most have not really produced.

A little over a year ago my husband and I had a hard conversation about finances that started me on a prayer journey with the Lord.

God has been challenging me to dream bigger, way bigger than I can do on my own. He has been challenging me to stretch beyond what I think I can do, beyond what I see myself doing, way beyond the impact I believe I can make.

He gets the credit

There’s none of it He wants me to do on my own and none of it He wants me to take credit for. He wants to build a business and an influence through me.

That makes the task a lot less daunting. When I remember it’s for Him and by His strength I can relax. It’s up to me to obey, not to produce. I have to trust Him enough to do what He says no matter how much it stretches me. The current daunting area of stretching is pricing. This might scare a lot of you off but I firmly believe God has called me to make a lot of money. One of the verses He keeps highlighting to me is:

And thou hast remembered Jehovah thy God, for He it is who is giving to thee power to make wealth, in order to establish His covenant which He hath sworn to thy fathers as at this day. Deuteronomy 8:18 Young’s Literal Translation

He gives me the power to create wealth so He can expand His Kingdom!

Like it or not, we live in a world where money is necessary. I always wished it wasn’t, but it is. Money is a tool. Like any tool how it gets used is determined by whose hand it’s in. I want to always be humble and obedient so money will be a powerful tool for the Kingdom in my hand.

Is there a daunting task God is calling you to let Him do through you?

This is my 17th post in a writing challenge by Janis Cox. She has given 28 prompts. I have committed (being accountable to myself here!) to write for 15 minutes a day on one of her prompts (this one was daunting). I then have 15 minutes to polish and post so there’s not much polishing. As I said in my first post of this challenge it’s getting me back to writing instead of producing. Still, I hope my thoughts are a blessing and you’ll keep reading.

How To Make Money Online From Anywhere In The World
By: Sunganani L. Manjolo
Tags: Money, Money Management, Money Mindset

The Online Bit

When you are thinking of making money online, you are either integrating offline activity or entirely migrating it to online.

Making money online means you have moved it all to the internet. From product or service delivery, advertising, payment, shipping…the whole gamut.

Where Do You Start?

Photo by Dayne Topkin on Unsplash

Not to sound sassy but the answer is “start at the beginning”

Something made you ask the question you asked and there are answers in others who have gone ahead of you. What is it that you have in mind to do to make money online?

Make money on Youtube? There are others who have gone ahead and are successful. Many have made courses to help others to be successful as well. I will share one you can look at later.

(Disclosure: “Bear in mind that some of the links in this post are affiliate links and if you go through them to make a purchase I will earn a commission. The decision is yours, and whether or not you decide to buy something is completely up to you.”)

But perhaps you do not fancy Youtube for one reason or another. How about an Amazon-based business? There are people who have mastered the way to make money from this platform. Then there is Google, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and on and on I could go.

The point is, you will have to find those who have gone ahead and succeeded and learn from them. Yes, it will cost you but it will shorten the learning curve.

Why Do People Go Online?

Photo by Giulia May on Unsplash

That is correct. The internet is the information superhighway. It all starts with the information people want. They feed it into the internet and there are ways of getting to know that. It is that information that you will use to place your offering to them for a commission or profit. There are ways to do that.

But like I said before: all this has others who have gone before and have turned around to teach those who are coming from behind…for a fee of course.

It is wise to learn from them.

I should know

But that is a story for another day. For now, it is enough to say that it is possible to make money online from anywhere in the world.

Here is the resource I promised for you to look at and learn from

This is life chaning

All the best to you.
Importance of Savings and Investing !
By: Vivek Jadhav
Tags: Life Lessons, Money Mindset, Money Management, Financial Planning, Economic Development

Hey guys….! How are you all? I hope you are good enough. Today we are going to learn a very important in our life. Before going to our main topic just keep your hand on your heart and think about your entire life, up to which you can think………

Now think about the all assets and liabilities that you have with you now, check all kind of expenses that you have with you and as that of perspective do you have much amount of assets? If not then you are not on right track…..!

The last year 2020 have taught us a very good lesson of having prepared for economical crisis not only economical but also physical or you may say psychological crisis. Those people who were ready for that were served economically very easily and of course those people also who has lot of assets than their liabilities were also served very well. But everyone has not that much assets if would have then no one on earth become poor. So we must have a proper management of assets and liabilities, not only this but also of proper planning of “savings and investing”.

Here we come to our first topic ‘SAVING’. Saving is one of the most important part in our life without savings we can’t live our life in proper manner, for a proper lifestyle you must have to save at least 40% of your monthly income. By doing this, you will see a massive change in your life but that’s not enough……! By saving money or putting that money into the bank you will able to secure some part of economical crisis but not the full, because only savings or keeping money into the banks is not enough to become financially fulfilled because banks gives an interest of 6–7 percent and the inflection per year is 8–10 percent so keeping money in pockets or banks, it will make you a secured person with saturation and saturation in life means we are died financially…..

So what to do to overcome such saturation in financial world? We have to invest our money in different platforms such as mutual funds, stock market, real estate, etc. and all other platforms. Here we have simple rule to invest is, “AGE TO RISK” rule. The great investor and trader Warren Buffet’s teacher Benjamin Graham has wrote a book “The Intelligent Investor”, in that book he gave the best formula about the saving and investing and that is, how much you are old ,invest that much percent of your savings, take risk of that much amount only. Let’s know this rule more with a simple example, if your age is 30 and your savings is 20000 rupees. Then invest only 30% of that amount and it is 6000 rupees. Only. Other amount keep at you for savings or for other purposes such as medical or else.

I hope you all enjoyed today’s session. Stay safe stay happy stay long

THANK YOU……!
‘Money Star’ Activation This Year (2020)
Tags: Financial Abundance, Feng Shui, Money Mindset, Money, Feng Shui Activation

Please welcome the famous money star, Star #8.

Star #8 original palace is in the Gen Gua, Northeast, part of the Earth Element.

Luo Shu box is the original placement of the Stars. Read this article to learn more.

The Luo Shu by Floustudio

Now you know why Chinese like this number, right. From choosing their phone number, their home address, office towers, and so on.

If you want to know someone’s financial condition, you could check their Northeast sector of the house. If the sector looks neat, airy, and bright, then we can generally say that this person’s financial condition is good.

Vice versa, if the by chance the Northeast sector is being occupied by the storage room or the area is full of unused things, then you can safely conclude that their finance is not in great condition.

Now onto the activate the Star #8 this year to boost your financial performance. Again, Star #8 is in the Northwest this year (2020).

What can you do with the sector?

First. Be there and do your work related to finance. You could contact your warm leads there (if you are working with direct sales), follow up with your clients, or do a brainstorming session while being there. You should do the activity according to the energy in that sector. Since Star #8 talks about cash flow and finance, you should do activity accordingly.

Secondly. Either install moving water in the sector by choosing a suitable date and time and take it out once it hits 2 weeks. When you are doing the water activation, the whole residence of the house will receive the same benefits as Star #8. While if you are doing the first method, the person who is in that area doing the activity will receive the benefits.
The Less You Have is Actually Enough
By: Alessandro Mulya

I remember being stumped the first I went in college — I was majoring in Multimedia. I got a crappy laptop whilst some of my friend has a gaming one, fetching a huge price tag at that and boasting bigger capabilities than mine. You guessed right. I got jealous. I always thought to myself, “If I had that laptop, I could probably get more job done than what he had done.” But is that really the case?

Nope. That’s the short answer, actually. The long answer starts with this logical fallacy that somehow if we had better equipment, we can get more job done. But being that, are you sure that will not make us lazier? Realistically speaking, if you are not able to have whatever it is that you want, then just by daydreaming and not getting any work done, you are NOT any inch closer to realizing that.

So instead of being grouchy all the time, we need to acknowledge. We cannot have all the things in the world, and trust me — some does not really spark joy at all, Marie Kondo style. Have you ever save money just to buy something that ended up being ‘meh’? That could happen again, maybe closer than you think. Maybe that will be your very next stuff on your wish list. Let’s start by looking at we already have; the less that we have is actually enough.

This is not, by any means, a demotivation to not getting what you need, however; just a clear, rational thinking before you splurge all that dolla-dolla bills unto impressing your friends or just to try and keep up with the social elites. Maybe that expensive laptop that my friend has, maybe he had saved a year for it or something. Maybe he really needs it that much, maybe his workload are actually that much more compared to me. The more we think about the positive side and let rational thinking takes over, the more we are going to cherish others for what they have rather than having a rat race of possessions.

So, always be wise in your spending and never be jealous of such things again,

Because the less you have might actually be better.
Absolutely Terrible Money Advice
By: Merle Van Den Akker
Tags: Personal Finance, Money Mindset, Money Management, Advice, Money

1. Getting into debt to consume

“Why would you have to save for a purchase if you could buy it now, and pay it off later?” Well, there are reasons for not taking out a loan or a credit card debt every single time you see something you like.

The most obvious reason this is bad advice is that debt is expensive. So, your initial purchase might end up costing you more than you intended. Think of interest payments, or if it gets really bad: defaulting and ruining your credit score.

The second reason this is bad advice is that consumption often doesn’t garner further earnings. As in, you’re buying something to have it, not to create a future income stream due to investment. A good example of investments that are often loan/debt-based is education. Buying education is an investment. It will increase your earning potential, enabling you to pay back the debt you have taken on. Buying a pair of really expensive shoes does not allow for this. Which raises the question: where is the money going to come from to repay the debt?

The last reason getting into debt to consume is a bad idea pertains to the emphasis it puts on having things now, but also having things beyond your actual budget. If you don’t have the money now, and you’re not entirely sure (or just overly optimistic) that you’ll have the money later, why do you think making this purchase is a good idea? This sounds more like impulsive buying than a well-thought out shopping trip. When impulse meets credit card debt, it’s time to learn some restraint. To exert self-control is a character trait that can in fact be trained, and will be very beneficial in aspects of your life far beyond personal finance. And you know, it’ll prevent you from having to suffer years later from terrible impulse decisions made now.

Overall, when it comes to getting into debt to consume, the better idea is to ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing. And once you’ve figured that out, you might be well on your way to leading a healthier (financial) life.

My advice: To cancel out the impulse wait and save up for the purchase for a bit. If you still want it days/weeks/months later whilst having to give up actual hard-earned savings for it, that seems like a fair time to buy.
I Can't Do It!
By: Benjamin Poulter
Tags: New Job Tips, Money Mindset, You Can Do It, Entrepreneurship, Hopes And Dreams

I remember my old PE teacher from school, Mr Clay he used to say

“There's no such word as cant”

So many people use the word I cant as a get out clause. I cant meaning — I cant be bothered!

You can if you only try! Then because you have to try, it takes you out of your comfort zone so another question pops up — What if I fail?

Fail — With each fail you will learn a lesson — no one makes the same mistake twice!

I think I have inherited this from my mother.

My mum and dad were married for 20 years, My mum turned round one day and said — I'm leaving.

Thinking back now, it must of took some guts to do it.

My dad didn’t really try to stop her so it was clear they both felt the same way.

We weren't rich, so it wasn’t like my mum could go and stay at the holiday home or just go and buy another house like in the movies.

I'm not completely sure how she managed it, but she did. She took the leap and moved to a rented house.

Admittedly I would think for a long time she though I can't! Then as soon as she changed it to I can it got the ball rolling.

She went through some tough times but came out the other side with the result she wanted.

He I can attitude must have stayed with her because recently she was talking about a new car she wanted, the next week, that car was on her driveway!

My mum and I are not millennials, so we have been around for a while to learn this lesson.

The younger generation today can change the I cant into I can easier! The internet opens you up to so many opportunity, to take advantage of.

I hate it when someone say “I cant”! NO!!!!!

Its you cant right now. You need a plan to change it to I can then I did it!

I cant stress enough (That cant was rhetorical) how the I cant is all in your mind, your mind is what stops you even thinking you can!

I was talking with my family last night, my girlfriend asked a question –

“if you could have anything in the world? What would it be?”

Well I though for a while and said “Wings” I want to be able to fly.

Tom my 13 year old said “A gaming computer(this is something he has been talking about for days)”

Tom told me you can already fly! Get on a plane and you fly to wherever you want, I can’t get a gaming computer — I can’t afford it.

Now Tom saw a solution to me wanting to fly, something mythical — I’m not going to grow wings one day, but couldn’t see a way to get a gaming computer.

So we explained this to him and he started with a plan. He made a chart to put on his wall in his bedroom, for the goals he’s aiming for to save for this gaming computer.

Proud moment there from young Tom — Now he is super eager to do jobs to fill his chart!

He turned his I cant into I can! Made a plan and aimed for the end goal.

A 13 year old lad!

So with a lot of things in your life, you may look at it at first and think I can’t!

YOU Can — you just need a plan to take you there.
WRONG MONEY MINDSET
By: Casafina Media
Tags: Money Mindset, Money Management, Money Mistakes, Change, Money

WRONG MONEY MINDSET

Mindset is very important, especially the ones you have about money. If your money mindset is wrong, it will be extremely difficult to get ahead with your finances, no matter how much cash flow passes through your hands on a weekly, monthly or yearly basis.

Here are seven wrong money mistakes you might be making and how to break free from them.

1. To be rich, you have to be corrupt. Not every rich person went the wrong route before they made money. A lot of people do not compromise on hard work and integrity. Quit joining the multitude to think that to be extremely wealthy cannot be right. Whatever you do not appreciate, you cannot attract to yourself. Associate yourself with the right thinking people at all time.

2. I deserve more than I am earning right now. When you keep delivering value, you will earn your way to wealth. Go over and above what you are being paid for. Constantly ask yourself what you need to do to earn more. You can double your income when you understand value deployment.

3. Not all of us will be rich. You need to know that everybody has the capacity to get to their fullest potential, which is capable of making them wealthy. Wealth currency is an exchange for value. If you give value, you will get wealth.

4. I will hit it big one day. Every overnight success has a lot of sleepless nights that have gone into it. Wealth is cumulative and takes a process. Resources will always flow from those who cannot manage it to those who can manage it.

5. There is an alternative to hard work. If you think you don’t have to do anything strenuous or extra, then you will remain at the bottom of the ladder. It takes energy to climb up.

6. I want everything but there is no time for self-development. It takes time to earn a degree. It takes time to learn anything worthwhile. However, it can be easier when it is deliberate. Spend every day getting better, read a book, listen to informative podcasts and generally guard your space and contents you allow around you. Who you are will determine what you attract.

7. The specialist will do it. We have said time and again that it is a poor mindset to give your money to a third party to manage for you. You should be interested in how your money grows and where it goes. Draw out your own investment plan and seek professional management. You are primarily the architect of your destiny. Take charge.

Let us see those mindsets changed for the positives from now on.

Let’s talk Fear of Selling for a minute!
By: Bansi Patel
Tags: Money Mindset, Selling, Sales, Fear, Mindset

Many a times, people are so uncomfortable Selling their services and products because they fear they might come across looking sleezy or salesy!💸⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

And my response to that is always ⬇️

1.People are not buying your products or services based on its logistics like hours of the programs or number of workbooks or number of live sessions you get, people simply want to "Feel a Feeling" and they are looking for services and products that will help them feel certain way, especially Women! 💛

2.So when you know what you provide people in exchange for the money they will give you, when you know it is going to change their life for better, when you know they are going to live their fullest potential by investing in you and your services, why would you ever Fear Selling?

3.Selling is simply you "Trying to Help". Its like if you knew you had a cure for a dangerous disease, would you be able to shut up? Ofcourse not, you would literally Scream and tell everyone about that cure because you know it will change their lives!💖

What’s wrong in that?🤷

In fact that’s the best thing you can do for the planet, help others!🥰

So, I want to ask you, how do you wanna make people feel by working with you? Share it in the comments below👇

Having more money won’t make you NOT happy.
By: Grant Cardone
Tags: Money Mindset, Income, Happiness In Life, Happy Life, Inequality

HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED TO BE HAPPY?

Time Magazine said that a study done on happiness revealed that the more people make above $75,000, the more they feel their life is working out on the whole — but that it doesn’t make them any more jovial in the mornings.

(Note the definition of Jovial: cheerful and friendly)

For many, it’s hard to be cheerful when you’re constantly stressed about money.

Money problems bring fights with your spouse, feelings of uneasiness because you can’t pay for things you want to give your kids, and the reality of being trapped, a financial slave on the hamster wheel of a paycheck-to-paycheck life.

With the cost of living in the USA, most people who make 75K or less have nothing leftover financially at the end of the month.

Who wants to clip coupons and pinch pennies?

Take my advice: You need much more than 75K, and for all those people who say money doesn’t bring happiness, how would they know?

Most people who tell you money doesn’t bring happiness don’t have money!

Get access at https://grantcardone.com/ppv

Think about it like this:

If I have never traveled to New York City, and I told you NYC sucks, would you take my word? If I’ve never been to New York, what business do I have of telling others about the place?

Years ago before I moved to San Diego, people used to tell me people in California were crazy. These people had never even lived in California! Personally, I found I loved California — except for the taxes.

So, why do people who have middle-class assets give others advice about having riches? I’ll tell you that not having money won’t make you happy either!

HOW HAPPY ARE YOU WITH YOUR FINANCIAL CONDITION?

Never let anyone tell you money won’t make you happy, especially when they make $75K or less.

Here’s what I want you to do — take areas of your life and measure your happiness in that area on a scale of 1–100. Marriage, finances, business, income, kids, spiritual, physical — rate each one. You don’t need to have a 100 to be happy; 90 and above is fine for me.

Anytime you are struggling in some area of your life, stop and ask yourself; where am I on a scale of 1- 100? If your response is below 90, then ask yourself, what can you do to increase your happiness in that area to over 90?

Where are you on happiness in regard to your finances?

If you are below 90, there is a problem.

Get access to the livestream of the 10X Growth Conference this weekend and let’s fix this.

75K may or may not make you jovial. But I’m willing to bet $1 million won’t make you less happy.

Be great,

The 7 Day Money Manifestation Challenge
By: Bob Baker
Tags: Money Mindset, Money Management, Prosperity, Affirmations, Abundance

Welcome to the seven-day money manifestation challenge.

When I first posted this video to my YouTube channel, I had no idea it would impact this many people.

With more than 125,000 views and 3,500+ comments, it’s become one of my most popular videos of recent months.

The purpose of this post and recording is to help you generate extra cash flow within the next week.

And let me be clear, I’m not talking about just having an abundance mindset.

Don’t get me wrong. Your mindset is vitally important, but my ultimate goal for you is to have actual money in hand or in the bank within one week.

How to get the most out of this seven-day challenge

First, pick a seven-day period when you can commit to doing these simple activities every day for one week.

Listen to the recording every morning for seven days in a row. Even better, listen to and recite the affirmations multiple times a day.

For an even bigger impact, write down or print the affirmations and read them several times throughout your day.

That’s not a big commitment. It’s only one week. You can do this.

You can also download and print this one-page PDF of the affirmations and instructions.

Also — and this is really important — every day, leave a comment (on YouTube or here on Medium) with evidence of abundance in your life.

From big things like job promotions and new freelance gigs, to small things like finding $10 in an old pair of jeans or finding a quarter on the ground.

It all reinforces the fact that abundance and money are flowing into your life.

Okay, let’s jump into these powerful money manifestation affirmations. Check out the video version. You’ll find a list of the affirmations below.

I am abundant.

Today, I welcome money into my life.

Money flows to me in expected and unexpected ways.

Today, I am hyper aware of money-making opportunities.

I am open and ready to receive new streams of income.

Today I activate my wealth potential.

I am abundance personified.

Today, I see evidence of abundance all around me.

I am a prosperity magnet.

Today, I recognize money-making opportunities.

My inner guidance reveals countless profitable ideas.

Today, I act on my inspired ideas.

Be sure to return here every day and post a comment with evidence of how money is showing up in your life.

But remember, you have to look for it and stay positive.

Focus on the money you want, not the lack of it. That’s the best way to get more money to show up in your life.

This challenge is only seven days, so commit to the process.

Listen to the recording every morning for a week, and report your progress no matter how small or large your examples are.

Have an amazingly abundant day!
What’s More Scarce than Bitcoin?

This blog post will cost millionaires $12 to read

Time is more valuable than money.

So, stop being so willing to spend your time on just about anything.

This goes for your work and personal life.

Stop trying to get good at everything and just get great at ONE thing.

Maybe for you right now that means you need to get great at closing so you can make more money for your family.

Say your goal is to make $1,000,000 in 2020…

You’ve got 52 weeks (and over 5 of them are already spent)

If you want to set aside 50 hours a week for work, you’ve got 2,600 hours to make your milly.

$1,000,000 / 2,600 = $375.93

That’s how much you need per HOUR.

Next time you watch an hour of TV, remember that 60 minutes of TV TIME is worth $375, because that’s your going rate if you make a million a year.

That’s $6.26 a minute.

So if you waste time watching a commercial, that’s not just 60 seconds of your time…that’s a $6 commercial you just watched.

Understand?

That’s why when I watch stuff, I like to try and watch things like the 10X Growth Conference.

STOP being so willing to spend your TIME on anything.

Time is the only truly nonrenewable resource you have.

How you invest your time is more important than how you invest your money.

Reading this article is actually costing you money — but it’s been time well spent because now you understand the importance of how you are spending your time!

Now go make your milly.

Our relationship with money and our experience of abundance (or not)
By: Halina Goldstein
Tags: Abundance Mindset, Abundance Thoughts, Joyful, Money Mindset, Spiritual Awakening

The vast majority of people I have asked about it, experience abundance as something that they hope to achieve in the future.

They believe that there are things that they need to do and things that need to happen before they can experience it. But is it true?

Yes and no.

If you don’t experience abundance in your life, it is only natural that you try to do something about it, one way or another. In whatever way you do it, spiritually, workwise or financially, I salute you for doing it. And, I also know this:

You deserve abundance now, not just in the future. Why? Because you are abundance. Your abundance is here and now. You don’t have to do anything to make it happen. It has happened already, before you were even born.

You come from an abundant Source. You are One with it. Abundance is your very nature.

In a way, the only thing you need to do, is to DISCOVER that it is so. And as you discover it, to appreciate it and to enJOY it.

Look, it is great to have desires and goals, and to do something to reach it, financially too. But it doesn’t mean that abundance as such is a goal to be reached.

Rather, abundance is something to be discovered. It is here already, and it is yours.

Where do you experience abundance already?

Where do you experience your life as less than abundant?
We made mistakes at every stage of our life.

We made mistakes at every stage of our life. Either the mistakes were small or big, but when asked “what is the biggest mistake we made in our life”, the buddha replied, “the biggest mistake we made is that we think we have time.”

Time is something that we can’t own but we can use it. We can’t kept it but we can spend it and once it gone, it never comes back. Imagine you get ₹ 86400 in your bank account everyday and after 24 hours it all gone. What will you do ? Obviously you try to spend it. Same as this you get 86,400 seconds in your bank account everyday and once it gone it never come back and you will get another 86,400 seconds in your life account. You will never waste it when it comes to money so why when it comes to time. You can always make more money but you cannot make more time.

There is a good news and a bad news. The bad news is “Time flies” and the good news is “you are the pilot” . In every person there are two voices, one which push us, which tell us to do more, make more and don’t stop then there is one which tell us to stop. Everytime there is a battle between these two voices and guess which one wins, the one which you choose, the one you listen to the most, the one you give importance the most.

We think there are people who waste our time but actually there are you who waste your own time. As Steve Jobs said, “your time is important, so don’t waste to live it for other’s life”. Don’t make someone priority when you are only option for them.

Once William Shakespeare said, “time is slow for those who want, very fast for those who scared, very long for those who are sad, and very short for those who celebrate, but for those who love time is eternal.
3 Ridiculously Overlooked Skills You Need To Earn More Money
By: Jim Sullivan
Tags: Money Mindset, Money Management, Money, Life, Careers

Get an education. Get a job. Make money. Retire.

That’s the usual play-by-play society likes to throw in our faces. And, yes, a lot of people follow this tried and tested formula.

But some people don’t follow any set ‘formula.’ Not because they don’t want to, but perhaps because the specific circumstances of their career or life choices simply won’t allow it.

These people often need to rely on ‘outside-the-box thinking to earn some decent dough, which is why they’re pressed to learn and utilize different skills that the wider working world isn’t privy to.

These skills are often the last thing anyone would think of when it comes to earning some cold, hard cash. Heck, most people working a standard nine-to-five get away with following the same routine day in, day out, without ever picking up anything new.

But even those working more ‘traditional’ jobs could benefit from broadening their horizons in the hopes of potentially adding an extra zero to the end of their paycheck. Because going against the grain shouldn’t be exclusively reserved for the risk-takers.

If you think it’s time to try something new to boost your income, here are three ridiculously overlooked skills you should use to earn more money.
How to Make Money While You sleep
Tags: Financial Freedom, Finance, Money Mindset, Money, Life

Traf, an independent designer, published his iOS 14 custom icon pack on September 20, 2020. As of September 26, the sales spiked to $101,528. Six figures in six days.

Making money while sleeping tastes like that.

Sure this didn’t happen overnight. It took Traf a whole 7 years to come to this stage. But the point is it’s possible for anyone. Making money while you sleep is not rocket science.

Warren Buffett made this way of money making a household thing with his viral quote:

“If you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.”

Pessimists will say it's impossible. Don’t believe them. If you are a writer here or a Youtuber you may be already familiar with making money while sleeping.

The money you earn can put food on your plate. But if you want to own your freedom you have to generate money. You got to find ways to generate money. The ways that can generate money day and night without your presence.

This is not cheating or exploitation.

It’s a fair thing. No one wants to spend their days in the same cubicles every year, work on dumb things to get the monthly paychecks.
Being rich in the YouTube age

It’s not a new thing really, unfortunately as I’ve said in other videos, lately on Youtube you can find only adverts, promotions and so on.

Now it’s not rare to watch videos of content creator full of things they are trying to sell you in a way or another. People says it’s normal: no, it’s not. This is how we transformed Youtube and all the social media and internet in general: from a potentiality to a vehicle to sell crap, things you don’t really like but you really want because it’s cool and your favorite vlogger or streamer suggested you really need.

I don’t want to say that is a constant, but let’s face it: it’s quite common nowadays.

And the worst part is looking at all these people, that have plenty of money, they seems everything is fine but you know you are struggling to achieve what you want and they put on your face they made it in some ways. And this is making you sad and frustrated.

I have a good news for you: you can do it. If you really want, if you really desire to be rich, you will be!

Yes, because what is keeping away from your inner desire is sadness and frustration, exactly the same feelings you are perceiving from the online life, but try to separate that from your life. That is more or less life of other people but you can’t spend your time (life) watching the life of other people.

As soon as I realised I was doing this, I though that I was stupid to spend my time watching the life of an almost stranger. There was the turning point for me. No more time wasted to watch useless videos, only inspiring ones, videos and website could inspire me, could give me something for my time invested on that.

And doing this, I could raise my energy and have good examples of people made it and give me the boost to work on my life and future: and this is a golden ticket for the success.

And this is valid for everything really, we have to try to don’t be a slave of something or someone; you have to be the only one ruling your life.

Time in your life is the only chance of making you happy, use it with heart, whatever and wherever you are.

I wish you to fall in love with your life.

Stay mindful 🙂

Rising Expenditure is an Opportunity, not a Problem
By: Ansh Mehra
Tags: Money, Money Mindset

I have been unlearning some unmerited beliefs that I had unconsciously picked up as a child.

The most recent one is complaining about the rising expense of living. Instead of seeing spending of money as a mere loss of capital, one has to view their spending as a contributing chain in the flow of energy.

Money is a tangible form of value. Value is generated by transmuting all sorts of energy. The entire cosmos is nothing but a consistent flow of energy and that is why money helps us keep a log of how value travels from one person to another.

Growing up, I regularly heard warnings like “Oh life is going to become so expensive” and “Why is nobody doing anything about the expenses”

The truth is that someone’s expenditure is basically someone else’s earnings.

If a group of people is spending a lot more than before, then it is fair to say that another group of people is earning a lot more than before. The transaction of money is a zero sum game.

Which translates “rising expenses” as “an opportunity to ask for more”

This one simple shift will eradicate our fear of rising expenses and replace it with the excitement of possible opportunities.

Many people want to live a life of abundance and financial freedom.

Including you, I assume. That’s why you’re here, reading this post. To learn and make it work. Because if it all worked like a charm, you wouldn’t be here — would you?

Don’t worry; you’ll learn how to ask the universe for money.

Before you ask the universe for money

As with any manifestation, it all starts with your desire. Asking the universe for money isn’t any difference between any other manifestations. The process is the same, so when you’ve learned to manifest anything — you can do it again, and again…

So, let’s talk about your desire. What do you want in terms of money?

What amount would you love to manifest? Write it down! Be as specific as you can.

Well, let me explain. Since like attracts like and your vibration has to match the vibration of your desire — start small.

It’s easier to vibrate and attract something you think you can manifest. If you’re setting the bar too high at first, you can doubt your manifesting ability.

It can be hard to get into the feeling of having your desire already when you don’t think you can. Actually, it’s impossible.

Asking the universe for money is super common, so you’re in good company when doing so!

How you ask the universe for money is exactly how you ask the universe for other things too. The process is exactly the same, no matter the manifestation. In short, it goes like this:

· You have to be super clear on what that is that you want. Since we’re talking about money in this post, be specific on what amount you want to manifest. Also, know why you want it!

· Close your eyes and imagine yourself having that money now. Beforehand. How does it feel? The feeling is key !

· It is so very important to let go of how and when it will manifest into your reality.

· When you get a nudge of doing something, going somewhere… It doesn’t have to be a big jump, a small step is enough. Listen inwards, how does that step feel like? The feeling is key here as well! Trust your inner guidance!

Be patient with yourself. Have fun, start small and raise the bar as you go.he

Are you Financially Literate?
By: Jennifer James
Tags: Financial Literacy, Money Management, Money Mindset

Hello everyone,

This is officially my first post on this platform, I hope you find it engaging and informative. Thank you Emmanuel Faith for the push to write this article.



When you hear the word “Financial Literacy, What comes to Mind?”



Over the course of time, I have noticed that many people have different understanding of what financial literacy entails or are ignorant about it. Hence, I have decided to write about.

Financial Literacy is the ability to understand how money works

In simple terms, Financial Literacy is the ability to understand how money works. It basically means you understand how to make, manage, spend and invest your money. You need to be financially literate to understand how money works and how it can work for you and to do this, you need to know common financial literacy principles like budgeting, setting and achieving financial goals, investing, saving and a lot more.



Now, why should I be financially literate? you may ask. Simply put, your level of financial literacy significantly affects the quality of life you live. It affects your ability to provide for yourself and family, your approach to money and investment as well as how you contribute to the development of your community. Financial literacy helps you understand what is needed to achieve a lifestyle that is financially secure, sustainable, decent and accountable. It also helps entrepreneurs leverage other people’s money for business to generate sales and profits.



Your professional background, academic qualifications and income level has nothing to do with your financial literacy level. An employee working 9–5 can be more financially literate than his CEO. An illiterate who has no form of formal education can be more financially literate than a PHD holder as long as he knows how to make, manage, spend and invest his money.



Always have it in mind that, to be financially independent, you have to be financially literate. The two concepts go hand in hand and cannot be separated.

My name is Jennifer Odimgbe-James and I am passionate about Personal Finance and Investments. Walk with me on the journey to attaining financial literacy and independence.

I would like to know what you are doing to boost your financial literacy level. Kindly share and don’t forget to leave a clap.
