Financial Advice: Why is the Future of Your Finances Determined by the Way You Think?
Written by: Stacie Walker
If you have taken the step of going into business for yourself, there will be a major shift in your thinking.
For a lot of women, this transition can be very uncomfortable. It is another adjustment that has to be made in addition to the challenges of being a mother, wife, and a daughter.
You are not alone.
Every prominent and successful leader has gone through this same transition. You must think and act like a business owner, not like an employee.
Between the two roles, there is an enormous gap in thinking and acting.
The one definite way to hinder your success as an entrepreneur, is if you continue to think like an employee.
Especially, when it comes how you manage your money.
This shift will make a huge impact with the future of your financial development, as well as with your desired career.
You cannot ignore learning how to manage your money, especially if you are expecting to build a thriving and profitable business.
Most of us dread hearing the word “budget”, but after you learn some simple techniques, it's not so bad.
Actually, managing your money responsibly can be fun.
You must seriously learn how to create a budget. For your personal finances, it is important to know how much money is coming in and out of your pockets.
To be outstanding with your business finances as an entrepreneur, you have to understand the importance of tracking your money efficiently.
When you are making financial decisions in all areas of your life, ask yourself, "Am I using my money in a way that is supporting my business?"
If your purchases, small or large, do not contribute to building your business responsibly, then you are not practicing good spending habits.
It is unnecessary to live beyond your means and purchase things you don't need.
Actually, most millionaires do live below their means.
Yes, there are individuals that love to show off how much money they have, but a majority of millionaires do not own expensive apparel, cars, homes, etc.
Acquiring financial abundance will come to you as soon as you master your thinking ability to succeed. Only through practice, the evaluation process with your finances will become second nature.
Best of all, you will be consistent in making smart financial decisions.
