The 11 Best Tips To Save Money of All Time
Part 3 Tips 6 through 8 for great ideas on getting organized and increasing
savings by: Palyn Peterson
At any time in history, no matter what the current state of the economy, no
matter what the current trends, no matter what the unemployment rate is or
where interest rates lurk, some money-saving ideas stay true.
Some of you may have heard of these ideas before, others may be entirely new
to you. But whether you are familiar with these super secrets or not, it will
be well worth your while to put them into effect in your own life. The magic
they will work on your financial life is guaranteed. I urge you to put them
to work - any one of these could change your life! Big changes come from small
steps. One plus one does equal two, so if you add one from eleven different
places, you will see big results.
This is a four part series giving you advice on saving your hard-earned money
in a variety of down-to-earth ways. Nothing here is anything that anyone can't
do on a daily basis.
Amazing Money Tip #6
Do what you love and the money will follow. I think there's a book by that
title. At any rate, it's true. One of the primary reasons that many people
live paycheck to paycheck, and are broke despite working very hard at their
jobs, is the fact that they hate what they do.
If you hate your job, you will not have a positive attitude toward money.
You will associate money with that dreadful sound of the alarm clock every
morning. Once you tie up your source of wealth and income with drudgery, that's
exactly what the majority of your life will become: drudgery.
Starting today, you should begin planning your escape. The first thing you
should ask yourself is: "If money were no object, what would I be doing? What
do I like to do most for fun, and is it possible that I could get paid for
it?"
Sound ludicrous? It's not. In fact, if your work is not also your play, you
are fighting against yourself. You will eventually burn out and hate the world.
On the other hand, if you get up every day being exciting, positive and looking
forward to what you are going to be doing - and making money at it - you will
automatically move toward doing more and more of what you love, and making
more and more money at it. If your dream job means
starting your own business , don't
let that stop you either! It is much easier than most people think.
Look into it, it could literally change your life
.
Amazing Money Tip #7
You must get organized. Being a tidy, efficient person has more influence
on how much money you make more than you can ever imagine.
If you want to have a lot of money, you can't afford to be a slob. Think about
it. Let's say you are at your desk trying to get some work done. You need
to find the stapler, but because your office is such a pit, you spend 15 minutes
looking for it. You've just spent 15 unproductive minutes.
Next you may need to locate a file, and that takes you 20 minutes of sifting
through paper. Another 20 minutes down the tube. By the end of the day, you
may easily burn up two or three hours doing something as trivial as looking
for things.
The same goes for any kind of job you might have. If you are an auto mechanic,
how much time do you spend trying to find a nine-sixteenth wrench, when you
could have it at your fingertips.
It's disorganized people who are always saying at the end of the day: "I seem
to work so hard but get very little done!" Of course! You spent the entire
day looking for the Scotch tape!
The fact is, time is money. The more time you spend unproductively, the less
time you are earning money. Clean up your office. Organize your tool shed.
Get your bookwork organized. Think of every minute saved as a buck in your
pocket.
Amazing Money Tip #8
Make your own daily top 10 list. Speaking of getting organized, you should
sit down every morning with your cup of coffee and list the top 10 things
you would like to get done that day. Then organize them in priority of importance.
Start at item #1 and go down the list as fast as you can.
Make no doubt about it - this is a powerful way to get work done. It will
put hoards of cash in your pocket. The reason is that making money is all
about movement - forward movement. As the famous novelist Ayn Rand told us,
in a capitalist society the most important things a person can do is move
forward every day!
Having a top ten list will ensure that you accomplish something every day.
You may not get through the whole list every day, nor should you necessarily
try. Just do your best. At the end of the day, you should be able to look
at your list with pride, examine the scratched off items and say: "That's
what I got done today! I did something to better my life and create wealth!"
Again, this method has been used by a majority of the most wealthy and successful
people in history. Shouldn't you join the club?
The next of the 11 best money saving ideas of all time will be discussed in
part 4. Until then, take note of what you
have learned so far and put this information to good use. Read and reread
this article; I bet you will notice a difference sooner than you think.
