Fitness Workout for Your Financial Muscles
by: Mayumi King
So you bought the financial freedom books, but your bank account has yet to reap the rewards? Consider this:
Your financial success can be developed just like a muscle... and if you're not seeing results, you may be on the wrong "financial fitness" plan.
You were running on a treadmill to trim some “financial fat.” The result? Your wallet got "skinny.” You weren’t building your financial muscles. Why not?
Much like a good muscle-strengthening or exercise program, you need expert training, inspiration, and a "financial workout" that's tailored to your specific goals.
Following are five of the Greatest Financial Challenges people typically face in their lifetime. Take the financial fitness challenge and see what muscles you need to start strengthening!
(Note: please consult a Financial Fitness Professional before attempting any of these exercises.)
Challenge 1. "I'm afraid to take financial risks."
Financial Fitness Solution: Develop your Courage muscle.
If you're sitting around waiting for the “right” stock or real estate to invest in, you're dealing with the symptom, not the source. Consider that people who have acquired wealth are not smarter or luckier. They have developed the financial muscle called Courage. Here, Courage refers to acting in spite of your fear. The fear doesn’t get smaller, your confidence gets larger. As your confidence grows... so does your ability to make financial decisions that lead to increased wealth!
Challenge 2. "I just don't have enough money to do what I want, when I want."
Financial Fitness Solution: Develop your Desire and Belief muscles.
There are many factors that are at the source of not having enough. For starters, the financial muscles to develop are Desire and Belief. The mere presence of your Desire is evidence that you have the capacity for its fulfillment. If you have Belief that your Desire is possible, then there is no question of "if," but rather “how” and “when”. How can I achieve what I desire, and when can I start seeing positive results? The best-laid plans for success begin with the Belief that you can do it and the Desire to make it happen!
Challenge 3. "I'm constantly worried, stressed and frustrated about money."
Financial Fitness Solution: Develop your Attention muscle.
If I told you that you had a winning lottery ticket and the numbers would be called someday this year, would you be worried or excited? Most would say excited. The financial muscle to exercise here is Attention: where are you focusing yours?
