Look into the distance

When you buy something, always evaluate it in terms of its long-term effect.

That is, look not at how much you will formally spend, but at what resources, what investments this will require in the future (not only financial, but also labor or time).

Unhealthy attitude towards money

Many people experience two opposite emotions towards money - love and hate. They love it because they can make purchases and get positive emotions.

They hate it because when they don't have enough, they feel like money controls their lives. If they don't have money, they borrow or take out a loan. Avoid emotional shopping and credit cards.

Incorrect programming

Most people think that money is valuable. It is not. Money is just paper. If you set a goal "I want a million dollars" - it is meaningless.

What you are really saying is that you want a bunch of papers. Make it a realistic goal, not just money. That is why rich people don't keep their wealth in money.

Money vs. Value

Money grows on its own when we focus on creating value. We must learn to create value that others need.

Then you will earn good money. Why do many people who won money in the lottery quickly lose it? Because they did not know how to create and did not create value.

How not to think

If your environment has a negative attitude towards money, says that money is evil and wealth spoils people, the subconscious is programmed against achieving wealth. This approach needs to be changed.

Purchase Rating

One of the bad habits is that we never count how much a purchase really costs. We don’t know how many hours of work, energy and effort we will have to invest in order to afford this or that thing.

Build a habit of evaluating a purchase before you make it. Think about how much money you could earn by investing that amount wisely.

Using money costs money

There is a commission for the financial transactions we carry out. Many people do not pay attention to this, but it is often a large sum.

Are you ready to waste more than 15% of your working day just because you withdraw money from someone else's ATM?

Successful people don't keep their wealth in money

Rich people have assets, poor people have loans, debts and liabilities. It is necessary to keep the state in assets in order to save it from inflation.

Invest in your learning

Learning is your most valuable asset. By developing new skills, you can earn more.

Or learn business skills and make it so that it’s not you who earns, but others who earn for you.
