One step one should take is the step inside. What do you think about that statement?? True or false??
In my opinion, that statement is entirely true. Disregard of anything you want to do, step inside yourself prior to actually doing it is an mandatory step. Including in this money making processes. Be it by shares and stocks, commodity, gold, oil, forex (foreign exchange) or simply just by doing marketing strategies for conventional businesses. Or else, I can assure you, failure is the only one waiting in the end.
Then, where does that inside?? And more, what kind of step taken inside?? Well, let's solve it one by one. Answer for the first question, inside mean yourselves' inside. You may call it your center, your peaceful mind or whatever. The point is inside mean you yourselves. Then, the second answer, steps to take inside. Okay, it's varied. It's different either for me or you. But here, you may take it as what motivate you to struggle in making some money. Nevertheless, there's some guidance you could use when doing this stepping. And I'm gonna give you some of 'em. If your objective is making your money works for you. Just like this blog's title impressed, enslave your money to keep more money comes.
First one you ought to see in your stepping is your mindset towards money. What kind of sight you have towards money?? Is it money is the root of all evil'?? Well, try ask that question to yourselves. And answer it honestly, again, to yourselves. Don't feel ashamed bout your answer. Be it yes you felt that money is the root of all evil. Or on contrary you felt that money is the source of happiness. Of course, You ought to remember, don't try to lie when answer it since it'll just kinda make you look stupid in your money making process.
But, whichever your mindset now, good or bad, is not a big problem for now. Though, if you really intend to enslave your money and make 'em works for you, you need to have right mindset. Pointing wrong direction and failure is again waiting in the end. You may expect that not only you are failing in enslaving your money, you might even find that money is enslaving you instead.
OK, to make things easier, I'm gonna list some things you can take into consideration while deciding what mindset about money you're gonna use.
1. Don't be afraid of money
That's the first and most important rule. Though it's seems easy to understand this rule, people tend to forget, or simply ignore, it. Now, what do you think I mean by afraid of money. If you just think about afraid to lose money, or doing bad things with money, well, that's partially correct. But the full elaboration about my word 'afraid' there is enough to cover anything. I mean don't be afraid of making abundant sum of money. I also mean don't be afraid of losing your money also. Well, you may find that latter one kinda awkward. But hey, I mean it. I'll even say it once again, don't be afraid of losing your money!!! Why you may ask. OK, losing money means nothing if you gain something more valuable. You can always consider money as something like energy. It can't be destroyed nor disappeared. It'll just transform to other form. So, your job, instead of trying not to lose your money, is to make sure that you gain something when you force that energy (which is your money) takes another form.
And then, this first rule takes us to the second rule.
2. Be very perceptive to yourselves
Hmm... this rule is inspired by famous quote of sun tzu in his art of war. 'Know yourselves and your enemy, then the victory is yours'. Yeah, he used it in war. But don't worry, we can modify it in our money-making process. Pay attention, first thing strongly mentioned is to pay attention to yourselves. So, this rule takes you to make better understanding about yourselves when you try to shape your mindset. You won't get anything if you don't even know what you doing right. You need to know how much money you have in your pocket at this very moment. How many of that sum of money that you'll be willing to invest. What's the consequences when you lose your money in the process. What kind of benefit you seek with your money. Such questions will give you better insight. So, by doing this step, you will try to help yourselves to realize what you really have inside you. Whether it's gonna help you or not. Doing this and you'll make very big step forward in your journey of money making.
OK, that's two rules are the ones I think anybody should know and do to ensure the success to come. Anyway, that's all for now.
