Sometimes the answers to our problems are frankly so simple, that we miss them! Short on funds to buy gas for your car? Why not ride your bike to work or take the bus! Riding your bike could solve a number of issues actually in that the more exercise you get each day, the better you feel… The better you feel, the more you smile… The more you smile, the more people smile back and want to spend time with you, which altogether will lead to a healthier & happier life and will even effect your finances as well… After all you would have saved money on gas and you’ll also find that your boss will take a liking to your new found attitude of optimism and happiness. The clients and customers like it and that’s good for your boss. What’s good for your boss is good for your financial picture as well.
What’s that you say, you live too far away from work to bike? You don’t have a bus route near your house? Dig deeper and find a solution to your financial woe. These are simply examples for you to take what you wish from them. The bottom line is that every problem has a solution, it’s up to you if you choose to look for it or not! Sometimes we get so used to the pattern we’re in that we don’t break it and try something new, but yet as a wise man once said, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
Tired of being short on cash as you approach each payday? What are you going to do about it? Are you prepared to shift out of your comfort zone to help solve that problem? Change is hard, but as long as you are focused on your end goal, you will be very happy that you did.
Now, back to your finances… Take a second look at what is creating a struggle for you and write down any and every possible solution for it, no matter how crazy it sounds! When you are done, look at all you’ve written down, whatever came to your mind at the time and you may very well find that the solution was in front of you all along!
