Wondering why you cant seem to get ahead, why you cant seem to save any money? Well, maybe you are saving money and dont even realize it.
Do you have jars of change in your house? Is the ashtray in your car stuffed with coins? Do you have piles of change on your dresser?
Perhaps its time to change your focus.
Roll up those jars of quarters, piles of nickels and dimes, piggy banks of pennies. You can, of course, take the pile of change to one of those coin-counting machines, but I prefer the actual coin rolling myself. Besides, the machines charge you money and that takes away from your feeling of abundance!
When I roll the coins myself, I can feel the money, hear the money clinking together and I can smell the money (mmmmmmm what a lovely smell!). As I count it out into piles, I actually start feeling richer and abundant. And feeling abundant is where its at. And, as the coin rolls pile up, I can see how rich I am. More abundance! I am RICH!!!
Once your change is all rolled, take this found money and open a savings account. If you dont have enough to open an account save it somewhere safe until you do. Be brave. Dont spend it!!! Keep adding your change to this account and watch your money grow.
Many times an online account will give you a better interest rate. And sometimes they dont even have a minimum to open an account. Theres something about actually having a savings account and watching the money grow, even little by little, that creates a feeling of abundance, a feeling of Im rich! Im RICH!
Check around your home, your car. Gather up those quarters and dimes and nickels and pennies that are just sitting around, doing nothing. Use your change to start on the road to abundance. Put those coins to work for you. Roll em up and put em in a savings account!
