In the last blog, I talked about the 6 Human Needs and how they are stopping you from making money. If you didn’t read it, go ahead and read it. Today’s blog will make more sense if you do.
Now let’s look at how getting your needs met in a healthy way can help you to make money.
- Certainty—tried and true systems, consistency…Having a set time that you wake-up every day or a specific routine. Such as Monday, Wednesday, Friday are gym days. 15 minutes of aerobics, Abs on Mondays, Upper body on Wednesday, and legs on Friday—this frees up brain power because it’s one less decision to make and that gives your more space to make better decisions and to recognize ways of improving your financial health. Remember, this is a supportive routine or ritual that’s designed to help you grow.
- Variety—consciously shaking things up every once in a while, can lead to new and different ways of making more cash. So go ahead and give sky diving a try. If that’s too adventurous try a new place for dinner, take a different route to the grocery store, get a new haircut. You’re not trying to throw things into a tizzy. You’re just shaking up your routine a little.
- Significance—this is about showing up and owning your confidence. You can be an industry leader, a mentor, or simply someone who knows she’s good at what she does. Confidence allows you to see the world through the eyes of abundance instead of through fear and lack. You know you can trust your decisions. You know if something doesn’t pan out you can deal with the consequences. You know if it does pan out you can handle that too. And because of that, you are not afraid to trust your gut when you have the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a promising new start up.
- Connection—simply put-the need for connection can help you form lucrative partnerships, hook you up with people who have resources you require or who need a resource you have. Healthy partnerships and collaboration often make more money and they do it in a way that’s easier than doing it alone. This is one of the core benefits the people in my group, The Inner Empire: Money, Men, & Mayhem receive.
- Growth—learning about new ways of growing your money is imperative. Finding quality investment and time-saving opportunities are a couple of ways of doing that. And if you’re in business for yourself, conscious growth is sure to help you grow your income even during the leanest of times.
- Contribution—contribution is really a two-way street. It’s the opportunity to contribute to others through giving and an opportunity to contribute to others by graciously receiving. Let them feel your gratitude. Think about how good it feels for you to receive gratitude. Let others experience the same. And back to the original thought…allowing yourself to share your gifts with others without over giving and burning out is quite fulfilling. Plus, it puts you in a position where you can get paid to share your gifts. Ka-ching!
I’m talking major mindset shifts here.
Pay attention to which of the six human needs are playing the biggest role in your life right now. Be sure you are getting those needs met through positive actions. And remember- the more positive actions you use to get your needs met, the more you’re training your mind to see income opportunities as well as other opportunities. And the better you’ll be at fleshing out the good from the bad.
That’s it. Focus on getting your Six Human Needs met in a healthy way and you have a better chance of living a life of meaning and making money while you’re doing it.
