info_outlinePeople think about money in different ways. Our relationship, interpretation, and interaction with money play a significant role in our money mindset. Your views on money might have been created during childhood, but the people that you are closest to can also affect the way that you feel about it.
So, how do you change the way you think and feel about money? How do you shift your thoughts from a “scarcity” point of view to a mindset based on abundance and gratitude?
Today, I explain what ‘money mindset’ is and share the two primary mindsets most people have regarding money and finances.
