In order to be able to make more money, you will need to make some adjustments to your current lifestyle. As you are aware, taking thinks to the next step always requires a certain sacrifice and it usually involves more thinking, planning and working hours.
Here’s how you can prepare your mind to make more money:
Don’t Make Limits
If you ever state something like ‘I could never live with less than $1000 a month’, you are imposing a limit on yourself and basically you prepare for absolute failure. Because your aim is not to drop below $1000. Your goal is probably to make $5000 or something. If you are in position to negotiate your salary, use it! Always thing upwards and don’t put an end price to your work - ever!
And while it’s important to have a contingency plan, be detailed and express in making one and move on to creating a road to making more money. And this is great for any business! If you are working 9 to 5, but you still have a desire to earn more, you will simply have to do something before 9 in the morning or after 5 PM to make more money.
Forget Comfort Zone
Comfort zone is now being used to describe various aspects of life, but when it comes to working hard and making more money, you can simply forget about it. Comfort zone will completely kill your every chance on advancing in life, and if you have a mindset that says ‘I can do better!’, you will have to leave it!
You can’t expect to never work overtime, start earlier than usual, and have everything always mapped out. Also, no road to success is paved with laziness. And while some people are lazier than other and still make good money, you have to count their other qualities (intelligence, level of education or simply – privilege).
Never Give Up
While it seems like a tip that can be used for everything in life, never giving up is really important if you want to make money.
Let’s say that you have a 9 to 5 job that’s not too hard on you. So you want to give something else a go, but the working hours are from 6 AM. That will require a huge change in your life. Going to bed early, changing your morning routine etc. But if you give up, there’ no extra money.
Always think about the end goal and don’t give yourself a chance to find excuses all the time. Maybe this new endeavor didn’t work, but something else will.
Invest
You’ve got to spend money to earn money.
Make sure that you are constantly investing in improving yourself in a way that you will have to do an easier job for less time, but for more money. But invest wisely. Chase for discounts, choose courses that are good but are near you, check if there are hidden expenses.
First, always try to learn stuff that you need - but are free. There are now so many free ebooks, YouTube tutorials and courses that you can do.
Do You Really Want More Money?
At the end of the day, you have to think about what will all of this work and making money cost you. Your family time? Sleep? Parties? Health?
There are many things to consider, but it will surely cost you a lot of time and that’s something you can’t buy.
