It is no secret that the rich and the poor live differently.

The habits of the latter prevent them from improving their well-being. Therefore, people are forced to live in poverty.

Let's look at just 9 of these, simply put, bad habits, but if you have them too, think about how you can save the situation.

Don't set a goal

Poor people are characterized by a lack of purposefulness. And if a person does not strive for anything, how will he change his life?

Many people find it easier to settle for little, but that's not always a good thing. Of course, global goals are scary, so it's better to start with something small, and gradually you can raise the bar.

Then you will feel that you are capable of becoming a winner, and this feeling is truly inspiring.

Fear of change

If a person chooses stability and is not ready for changes, he will never get rich. Because of this, people refuse to start their own business, because there is a high probability that the business will fail.

They don't try to find a better job, but continue to hold on to their current, hated employment.

They are afraid of the difficulties that come with leaving their comfort zone, but without them it is impossible to develop.

Believe the myths

People who did not want to take responsibility for their own lives came up with a number of myths. Poor people are used to blaming external circumstances for their failures.

They believe that only children of rich parents who were born in the capital and received a good education achieve success. Such examples can be combined in different ways, but in reality everything is different.

A successful person who has achieved everything he has could actually have been born in a small village and raised in less than luxurious conditions.

Spend more than you earn

Rich people are distinguished not only by high earnings. Such individuals know how to manage their money wisely.

As long as a person spends all his earnings on his own needs or, even worse, gets into debt, he will not be able to live in abundance.

Money loves to be counted, as they say. Discipline will help you solve your current problems. And while you spend money on impulsive purchases, you risk falling into a debt hole. Or you don’t know how to get out of it.

To be greedy

If you save on everything and try to buy something cheaper, you yourself put obstacles in your path.

As long as you constantly buy the cheapest goods and look for the best deal in everything, you are only making yourself an insecure person.

You involuntarily convince yourself that everything expensive must be earned. And this is already a point from the psychology of poverty.

A rich person is ready to spend a large sum of money if he really needs the thing. So at least sometimes pamper yourself, buy what you really like, despite the price. The main thing here is to know when to stop.

Think conservatively

It is easier for poor people not to change anything at all, just so things don't get worse. Such individuals tend to live in memories.

They are convinced that everything was better before, somehow simpler. But by focusing on the past, people literally get stuck in it.

Therefore, it is important to realize that that time has long passed and now it is important to learn to evaluate the opportunities that the present offers.

Envy the successful

If you envy rich people, it will not do you any good. While you are angry because your friends have a big house and a car in the garage, you are devaluing your own life.

You can look up to successful people, but it’s better to set your own goals and achieve them, rather than look back at someone else.

Shifting responsibility

Some people have decided that everyone owes them something. Therefore, they often absolve themselves of responsibility. Such people simply do not see the point in any actions on their part.

They expect support from the state, believe that their boss is obliged to pay them well for a job well done, etc. But as long as you think this way, you will not be able to improve your financial situation.

Be passive

The psychology of poverty leads a person to an apathetic state. Such people do not want to live actively, they prefer to stay in bed longer and constantly feel sorry for themselves.

They close themselves off from others and are not interested in their lives. Of course, they may be comfortable living this way, but it does not offer any prospects.

Earlier I talked about how to recognize that your boss doesn’t like you.
