ATTITUDE TOWARDS YOUR MONEY

I love watching the Nascar races and have heard drivers give descriptions of their attitude towards speed and the cars they drive. The main word they all have in common is RESPECT. They have learned about the cars they drive and what the cars will and can do when the driver handles them on the race track. But it also gets a little more philosophical when it comes to this word respect. It includes the respect for themselves and how much confidence and belief they have in themselves as race car drivers. So does this go in just about anything in life, including money. If you respect yourself, then you will respect how you get your money and how to properly handle it's existence and how you make it work for you. In other words, you would not do something to get money that would hurt you or jeopardize your position in life! If you have respect for yourself as to how you are in life and keep a positive attitude, then your money will be controlled the same way and that shows respect for your money. When you look at what you have achieved, you gain pride and know it deep down inside where it counts. If you happen to accomplish a better way of life in the world for others along the way, then humbly that's also rewarding. But confidence is knowing inside you are where you want to be with yourself and like yourself for it without depending or relying on others for this gratification.
PEOPLE USING OTHER PEOPLE to gain "anything" is a lazy way to get to their goal unless the people they use also gain from this procedure. Like the Ford's making cars only to turn around and sell the cars right back to the person who worked on the car which appears to have a justifiable end. The person making the car also got compensation for his time and used the monies for whatever; i.e.( paying for rent, food, etc.). In other words, neither of the two got hurt in this process of making money. However, if a person earns money by robbing (stealing) or the selling of drugs; well you can see what the result of this choice will lead in the long run. Someone getting Hurt!!! And it shows a lack of confidence and respect for ones self if they don't believe in themselves. Also this choice could become costly not only money wise but could take away the time one has to live and enjoy life by being locked away and losing their rights.
WE'VE COME ALONG WAY BABY but the pay status is still unbalanced when it comes to gender. So in reading this blog, it may have sounded one gendered, and I apologize for that interjection. But fact is fact. The guy still gets more income for most of the menial positions than the gal and that means he will be relied on for the better income. That doesn't mean the gal goes off tangent and spends the income recklessly and doesn't have the respect for money. If there are two of you, more income to "play" with, i.e. spend, invest and save! And ladies, there are many rich and successful women out there who had to start somewhere before the male became part of the equation. So include yourselves in this Account 4 your money and hopefully all suggestions and recommendations can apply to you. After all, I am women and have tried to follow all of this as I earned my way in life. However, I wish I had done it sooner and then I could have been well set in life or a lot more comfortable than I am right now. But, thought I knew it all then and was too stubborn to take any hints to heart. This is where having a good attitude comes into play. Try to be happy and not too serious about life or yourself. We can actually blame this on how we were raised and the world environment (laws and guidelines we were suppose to follow which have changed drastically). It can be controlled by you and your choices and the following of legitimate guidelines. And if you have any bad habits, you can choose to change them and become what you believe you can become. This can be the start of something new and fun and wonderful!
