Inflation is all over the news recently and for good reason. At the moment, it’s at a forty year high. That’s something to be aware of.
It’s affecting everyone differently.
Some are fearful that what they have put away for retirement might not be enough now. They’re facing a reality of “what am I going to do?”
Others are feeling a bit panicked because they haven’t gotten to the financial status that they want and now it’s going to be “harder” to get there.
Whether you fall into either of these camps or something similar, you are going to have a reaction to the situation and how you feel about money.
For me, the solution is simple.
It comes back to the Attitudes of Money. When we know which Attitude to focus on, we are empowered with the knowledge of what to do so we can stop the worry and take action.
So let’s talk about the Attitude of Growth.
When we’re building a business, a wealth portfolio or some other means of income it’s common for us to hit certain “walls” or “ceilings” where we start to feel stuck. To me that’s always a good indicator that it’s time to expand out growth container, even if it comes with risks.
This can look like expanding business, finding new streams of income, hiring more people, opening yourself up to new opportunities, doubling down on investments instead of holding back, and more.
Which can all feel scary. I get it.
Outside influences are going to tell us that we’ve done as much as we can or that it will be too risky to keep pushing. “Why don’t we just stay where we are?”
But while the doom and gloom might feel like reality, it’s simply an illusion.
It’s time to challenge the talking heads and old stories keeping us stuck. When you do, your earning potential will change drastically.
Don’t let the outside influencers dictate what you can and can’t do.
You are in control.
