Home Business Expert: How To Overcome Poverty Consciousness

Poverty consciousness is the consciousness that you are poor. Now interestingly, this has got nothing to do with how much money you have because even if you have quite a bit, you might still believe that you do not have enough and this makes you an ideal candidate for poverty consciousness. In fact, poverty and poverty consciousness are two different issues and they may not be related at all. There are so many people who are not extremely well off financially and yet the material possessions do not seem so important and they can remain happy. And then there are those who are extremely rich but even then they are unhappy.

To become successful and lead a happy life, you will need to end your poverty consciousness. Here are some ways that can be useful.

Never brood over the fact that you may have so little. Just take a look around you there are so many people who have so little and you will see that you are much better off. Yes ambition is necessary and you should make the conscious effort to generate wealth, but while you are doing so, do not forget to thank God for what He has given you.

Never feel jealous about all those people who may seem to have everything in life. On the contrary try to get inspired from their wealth and achievements learn what they did and how they did it, and perhaps you may also be able to do the same things to amass enough wealth.

You need to change your focus from what you do not desire to what you desire. The human mind works in a way in which if you keep thinking about something and attach too much importance to, it will keep expanding. For example, if you give too much thought to scarcity, it is sure to grow manifold in your mind. So think of abundance instead even if you are not abundant because thinking of scarcity never helped anyone.

Do not nurture bad thoughts about anyone even those who owe you money. Pray to God so that they may become prosperous and if and when they make the payment, always end up thanking them but do not sound satirical when you do so.

Recognize that money is important in life but in the end money cannot buy you happiness. Even if you have the best luxuries in life, you may still be unhappy. So being happy is more important than being rich.

Thinking of poverty never did anyone any good. So stop thinking of all those things that are missing in your life remember that no one can get everything. Overcoming poverty consciousness has many benefits.
