12 EASY WAYS TO BECOME RICHER THAN YESTERDAY

Most of us wants to become rich, it is what everybody is dreaming of, getting rich is not that hard. It just takes time, you need to work and be patient. Once you have the proper mindset for creating money... you will become rich. Time and hard work is the partner of money, you can't wish to become a millionaire if you want to get it in just a matter of weeks. Remember that those people who fall into the trap of getting rich fast end up being broke and sad. They lost a lot of money because they want to get it fast. It will take time, sometimes years or even a decade.

1. Save. As simple as it sounds but most people can't do it. It's because they don't feel good about saving, they feel poor whenever they can't buy what they want. They choose spending instead of saving. Saving is just a habit, once you do it everyday it will be easier for you to do it for the rest of your life. Save 5 dollars, 2 dollars, or even save 50 percent of your monthly salary. Whatever you can save... save it. It must be in your system. People who are broke can't even save 1 dollar a day even if they can save 10 dollars, it's because they were itching to spend all what they have. They can't even sleep without spending for something today, they feel that their money was made for buying something and the funny thing is... they are buying things that they don't even need just for the sake of pleasing themselves for just a short period of time.

2. Throw away your credit cards. Your credit cards are traps, it is tempting you to buy something even if you don't need it, you are spending money that you haven't earned yet. The result is you're already in debt before you even get your monthly salary. It feels like you're trapped in a quicksand and you can't get out of it. Having a lot of monthly payments for credit cards is suffocating, it will never make you breathe, you will feel that you're always running away from something. The bonus points that you are getting from your credit cards are useless, it is not making you earn anything, it's a trap to make you use your credit card all the time because you feel good earning some points. Those points can't even buy you a pair of shoes, it's useless, stop falling into the trap or credit cards because most people who use it are broke.

3. Cut your liabilities. You can have two cars in your garage but are you really rich with that? you're paying those cards monthly and does it really make you feel rich? I know sometimes you're hiding yourself away from calls of the banks. Appliances to be paid for two years, useless money loans, TV cables that you are not even using, gym memberships. Sometimes you think you need something but the truth is you don't need it, you need to be smart here. Some of the monthly payments you have are completely useless.

4. Look for side hustles. Side hustles are everywhere. You can have 2 or three jobs, I have a friend who's a civil engineer but is still driving a taxi. There's nothing wrong with that, if something is working for you and you feel good about it... it is right. Remember that you need to become richer than yesterday, and in the rule of money... there are no rules, for as long as you keep on putting some money inside of your bag... you are right. You can multiply your money however you want it. You can use any way, every action is the right action. You can be a gardener or a garbage collector, whatever works for you is alright, don't be afraid to take blue collar jobs if you need to. Pride is not a factor here, pride and ego will never increase your net worth so whatever job is available there... go for it.

5. Create passive incomes. Passive incomes doesn't mean you don't have to work anymore, sometimes passive incomes are not giving you money. But it is a way of creating money the easier way, there is little effort here. You can create a you tube account or a blog, or anything that generates income with lesser effort, you can use your creative side here, you are free to try something new. There is a time needed for this method and it will not work in an instant. But if you are patient enough and willing to work hard then you will become successful. All it takes is dedication and commitment, once you were able to build a passive income then it will be easier for you to create new businesses because there will be lesser pressure to create money.

6. Develop delaying gratification. Never spend your money because you think you have more, think again. Stop letting the signs such as "50% off" or "SALE" fool you. You are not saving any money buy buying items on sale because you are still spending your money. Think again if you really need the item, never let your emotions make decisions, use your brain, do you really need it? you need to be brutally honest with yourself. Always remember that you survive and live without those items so why even bother to have it now? Always look for the bigger picture.

7. Never count other people's money. Focus on your own money. The reason why it's hard for you to get rich is because you're counting other people's money, you can't appreciate what you have, you are jealous. Getting envy with other people's money builds bitterness, once you are bitter you will feel unmotivated to take actions.

8. STAY humble. Discipline yourself. Stay humble and low key, stop going to parties that has no business in increasing your money. Because most of the time, you go to parties just to show your Jordans and Nikes or trying to look rich. Stop trying to impress your chick and buying her expensive chocolates and flowers so that she will be happy. If she loves you she loves you regardless if you only have 2 under wears in you closet. If you want to become richer than yesterday then you need to develop a mindset of staying humble and not competing with the "Rich Kids". It's ok to look poor, for as long as you feel rich inside then you are good.

9. Appreciate what you have. Being rich is just a feeling, it's a state of mind. You can have ten thousands but if you really feel rich about it then you are rich. Some people have millions of dollars but still they can't feel rich, they still feel something is lacking. It's because they can't appreciate what they have and they were always comparing their money with the money of other people. They feel bad when they see somebody richer than them.

10. Avoid needy friends and family members. Toxic friends and family members who always ask or borrow money from you is not helping at all. They will create dramas to make you grant their requests but at the end of the day they can work hard too so why are they always asking help from you? it's not your responsibility to feed them or spoil them. You have your own life, if you want to become richer then you need to throw away things or people that is making your ship sink. Those people are drilling holes in your ship and if you're not strong enough to let them go then all of you will get drown in poverty.

11. Have a target. You can never reach something if you don't have a target. Target an amount and relentlessly chase it, get it at all cost. Target millions, target zillions, it's ok because at least you have a blue print, you have a direction and you know where you are going. Target the bog money and go hard for it.

12. Buy cheaper things. You can buy fake Nikes or Jordans, you can buy fake T-shirts and golds. Nobody will notice it, if you can rock an imitation then it will look original. Just be confident in wearing some fakes. If they ask you if it's original or not just laugh or answer YES. And when they tell you it's fake just tell them that you just pick it from the garbage. And then just laugh, you can feel confident wearing anything. You can feel invincible looking cheap, it's all about how you feel and not how you look. When I was in High School I was wearing fake Jordan 11's and they don't know that it's fake because I am so confident and not caring if they're looking at my shoes. I just walk it like a gangster and people were saying "wowww".
