TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE 1

Money matters, they say matter. I have met countless number of people over the years who claimed to be in search of jobs or greener pastures but have ended up in the rat race.The challenge is if you don't know where you are going, you will not know when you get there. If the rat race were the way to be wealthy, we would have few poor folks on earth. Many people labour endlessly and yet remain poor. What liberates is the knowledge of how to convert your labour to wealth and the understanding of what money is. In this post, I will be sharing on what money is.

So what is MONEY?
The starting point for anyone to be truly free financially is to have a clear understanding of money. This has remained a major missing link, and a lot of people mistake currency for money or the card and papers and wallets for money.

Money has been in existence before the ATMs, currencies came. If the ATM card is money, then just use the card to get anything you want. Currently, bitcoin remains the most valuable currency because of the technological solution it provides in curtailing recession. I will share explicitly on this in subsequent posts.

MONEY IS ANY MEDIUM OF EXCHANGE

Whatever you possess that you can exchange for what you need is money and not necessarily paper currency or cards. Therefore, change your paradigm from thinking of how to get 'money' to how to use MONEY(your skills, energy, ability and innate potentialities to acquire money. When you get to this level, innovation and idea will flow.

MONEY IS A REWARD FOR SOLVING A PROBLEM

Life rewards donations, not duration. There is a problem you were created to solve. Until you discover it, financial freedom remains a mirage. Nobody gets paid for identifying problems, but solving them. Become a problem solver today!

Manoj Arora in the book," From the Rat Race to Financial Freedom wrote, “Do not focus on money, instead focus on a problem that needs to be solved for the world..money will follow you as a bi-product.”

Do you get that?

In the next post, I will share on three wealth creation engines, and how to take advantage of them.

Thank you for reading and kindly drop your comments.
