These tips in the Single Mom Money series gets into the meat of how to be successful with money. Getting your head straight is another important key to attracting money into your life and making the most of what you already have.
1. Change your thinking about money. For many people, especially single moms, money has many negative connotations. You don’t have it, there is not enough of it, and you don’t know where the next batch is coming from. We have a tendency to think that it is out of reach we struggle with it.
2. Money is simply a tool to get the things we need and want. Of course not having it and thinking about your lack will not make it come to you any faster.
3. When you change your thinking about money, see its true purpose, and realize it’s abundance you will have more of it.
4. Remember that there is more money available for you. Whenever I have to pay a bill, write a check, or spend money I keep this truth in mind. I will have more, not because I am doing anything special but because I just know that it will come again.
5. Let the money go to receive more. Sometimes we get so caught up in holding on to money with such tight fists that we fail to understand that a closed hand cannot receive more.
