Lost without a map? How to create more money flow

figure-1819243_640

 

I’m a little old school and still don’t have a sat nav.  Gasp!   There is the wiring for it but somehow I keep telling myself I’ve got this…

I prefer to think that I know what I’m doing.  That I can follow the signs and for the occasional time I might need it there is always a work around….

That work around normally involves me driving for a good few miles in what I hope is the right direction, typically down a narrow country lane, with the foliage so overgrown, you wouldn’t know if a ten ton truck was heading toward you.

You’ll see me frantically looking for a safe place to pull over whilst simultaneously praying that the phone has some signal.   Yep I cave in, I need a little help – google maps!

Now this doesn’t happen once, but twice or on a bad day three times….. And guess what? I’m stressed and late to wherever it is I’m going.

Being lost without a map is like being on holiday and knowing all the things you want to see and do but having no idea how to get there. You keep cobbling things together to hope it will all work out if you turn this corner or that corner, that the answer will be there but it doesn’t quite happen.

And this is how most of us treat our financial life.

We are pretty certain that we should be grown up enough to know this money thing by now – so why would we need a “Sat Nav”.  Best off to rely on our intuition alone and hope that we get to the destination.

I’m here to tell you now, that it can work out some of the time, but I promise you, you could get where you want to go a lot faster and smoother if you allowed yourselves some guidance.  (Take your own medicine Caroline!)

So how do you get that guidance?  Here are my top 5 ways of sorting your financial roadmap, both on a practical and a mindset level. (You got to address both – like a jigsaw puzzle it doesn’t work with just the edges or the middle)

Use your intuition

Your intuition can be useful to get you where you want to go when you deploy it well. We always can create more money flow when we work within our zone of genius – the bit that feels great! When you come across something that works really well for you – do more of it. One the same token if it doesn’t feel right it probably isn’t, so it’s time to turn those indicators on and make a change.

Use the signs

We can get further if we have some pointers along the way. We might not still be able to finally get to our destination but you can add to your knowledge bank. Challenge yourself to do one thing that will change your money mindset each day – here are free resources for you to do just that.

Use the A-Z

The good old fashioned paperback A-Z. Well worn where you have had to look at the little streets so many times, turning it round and round in your hands to try an orientate yourself.  Somehow though we still love the feel of a book in our hands – check out my favourite finance books here.

Use the Sat Nav

Love a bit of tech?  Check out the sat-nav I have set up for you.  Your online roadmap to up-level your income, upgrade your life, and being money confident.  Get where you want to go fast.

Have a co-driver

Sometimes it’s just easier to talk it through and have someone else do the thinking with you.  Check out how to work personally with me here.

Caroline!

P.s I’m off to order that shiny new Sat Nav!. (Time to use some of savings to spend jar)

P.p.s. Join us for the 5 day LIVE training to clear your money blocks.  I want you to feel the sand between your toes, book in that magic fairy of a cleaner, and stop wading through treacle with your finances.  It’s your time to feel better about money.  Register now!  (Starts 2nd October – don’t miss out).

35 days to your upgraded life, your income up-levelled & being money confident-7

My top reads to up-level your money mindset (& grow your bank balance)

I love reading, have done since I was a child, when I would be hiding under the covers with my torch at night, into the small hours with my latest page turner.

Now a days I read a few pages a day, and listen, listen, listen…great way to access a good book when you have limited time.

So if you are going to add one book to your list this year to boost your money mindset to attracting money in then why not choose from this list of my faves…

51Wwfp4t3NL._SX330_BO1,204,203,200_T Harv Eker – Secrets of the Millionaire Mind

I remember being at a networking event talking about what I do, and someone said surely you’ve read T Harv Eker?  Nope I said…I’m guessing I should.  He preceded to tell me that I was pretty much on his wave length when it comes to organising money and thinking positively!  My favourite bit of the book are the 19 mindset flips to help your think “rich”.

51pnCTbMqOL._SX331_BO1,204,203,200_

Robert T Kiyosaki – Rich Dad Poor Dad

A classic this one on how Robert had differing advice on money from his Dad and a friends Dad.  He explains how to invest in assets to further your wealth and to create passive income rather than just rely on a pay cheque.

I like this book because it is a straightforward read, full of actionable tips.

51lGi+Gb0ML._SX333_BO1,204,203,200_

Maria Nemeth – The Energy of Money

I picked up this book in a charity shop whilst hearing a lady telling her son he couldn’t have all the books because they didn’t have enough money.  (Read my thoughts on why I don’t agree with this statement in this blog post).

It sounds a bit woo woo the title but actually is a deep dive on the mindset with a sprinkle of practical advice.  Great book if you are in the spiritual field and find it difficult to align earning well with sharing your gifts.

51k7PlE3bLL._SX384_BO1,204,203,200_

Rhonda Byrne – The Secret

I’m sure you have probably read it but if not then the essential premise is we get what we focus on.  Learn how to think differently for your own abundance.

Moleskin Pocket Notebook

Not a book to read but for just for you to use.  I love Moleskin notebooks, they are fabulous quality and make me feel first class when I use them.  I use mine for tracking my income and value on a daily basis – it’s really important to acknowledge and give thanks for everything that comes into your life if you want more.

41mpJXwWG9LAmazon Audible

I’m also just getting into Amazon audible.  Really useful if you are short of time to actually read like me, but have time when you are doing stuff and could be listening too.  (Dead of the night feeding the little one for me!)

Let me know if there is anything else you have read that you have found inspiring – whether about money or not!  I’d love to know.

P.s You can also read my very own e-book here.

P.P.S If you click on one of the links above I may earn a small fee from Amazon, but it does not change the cost of your item at all.  I also ONLY recommend products that I have actually used and enjoyed!
