Poverty or lack of economic resources is a problem that plagues millions of people and this is seen with great frequency in the Latin American population. Many tend to blame governments for this problem, but what happens when we have been living with scarce resources for years and we cannot wait for the country to solve our lives? Will we sit idly by and do nothing to improve our circumstances? Or will we try our best to get out of this situation and improve our whole life?
At the Personal Improvement Center we always advocate for the second option: Personal development despite the obstacles and difficulties that may exist in our environment or country.
We are faithful believers that poverty, beyond being a lack of economic resources, is also a lack of certain aspects at the mental level, such as enthusiasm, ambition, positivism, among others.
Save and don't waste your money. To begin with, the crucial point from which it all starts is money management. It doesn't matter if our financial income is extremely low or limited, there will always be a suitable way to manage that money. Therefore, avoid at all costs making expenses that do not cooperate in your health and well-being. Save first and then distribute the remaining money on essential expenses for food, services and more. Also, if you notice that the money is insufficient despite the savings, it is time to look for extra income with small businesses or extra jobs.
Stop complaining and be enthusiastic. Most people only complain about their circumstances but do nothing to change them. In this way we will never get out of poverty, as it is necessary to put enthusiasm into everything we do and not carry out activities lazily and discouraged.
Educate your mind. Ignorance is, many times, one of the causes of poverty. Information on financial education or other areas of knowledge could help us not only to develop our mind but also to improve our circumstances and the handling of our money.
Live your life and respect that of others. Many people spend their entire lives judging the lives and actions of others, and this is because many times their life is not attractive or exciting enough to take care of it. But if our life is not exciting or satisfying, it is time to transform and improve it in all its aspects.
Do not seek to follow others or imitate them . If you want to get out of the state of poverty in which you are in, you will probably have to stop following and imitate what the people around you do. This, because the majority is usually also in this state of unhappiness and lack of sufficient resources; most may not have adequate financial education. Therefore, if we follow them, we will probably get stuck in the same situation.
