Saving money is a vital necessity. A vital necessity in the sense that it is so important that one cannot simply live without it. We can create wealth by learning how to manage our resources. Or should we rather sit back and attribute our problems to our environment?
Know yourself and your Capabilities:
The first bold step you need to take is to discipline yourself in the way of meekness. Know yourself and your capabilities. If you only do things because others do the same thing without first thinking of your financial position, it is an easy way to turn into a beggar. "For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself." (Galatians 6:3). Spend wisely and save earnestly and acquiring wealth will be inevitable.
Save before Spending:
The power of positive attitude should not be underestimated. When you develop a positive habit in your life, like saying your morning prayers, doing exercise before going out of your house; it is worth more than a million dollars, believe me. Therefore I recommend that you develop the habit of saving your money first and programme the left over for spending-in a good way though. Don't ever spend all your money and save the left over. Believe me, next time it is either you have spent it all or you went ahead to spend the left over that you saved. Saving money before spending is the fundamental way of acquiring wealth via savings.
Don't ever think that Wealth is measured by how much you Earn:
More than 2,000 years ago, Jesus Christ (The Messiah) warned us about covetousness. "Take heed , and beware of covetousness. For a man's life consists not in the abundance of the things which he possesses. " (Luke 12:15). A lot of people believe that they are poor because they are lowly paid or their parents died without leaving any resources behind for them.
Yes it may be true that you are lowly paid or your parents died leaving nothing for you or your parents are still alive but they can't boast of anything worthwhile; whatever be the case, don't ever let it define you! I assure you that they don't define you, rather they are there to embarrass you. Just say to yourself that you refuse to be defined by your surroundings.
Michael Dell, when I read that he started the Dell company when he was a student with just One thousand dollars, I couldn't believe my eyes. You can agree with me that there are students with him whose parents have great resources and they can afford to give their children more than a thousand dollars for allowances. But what happened? A man life consist not in the abundance of the things he have. Don't ever belittle yourself or think that you can't make it because you are born in a less privileged family. All that counts is for you to believe in yourself and have vision that you will succeed in life.
These are the few tips I compiled and shared for everyone to learn. If you have anything to say, please feel free to use the comment box below. I wish you good savings and better life in Jesus name Amen.
