You have to balance your thinking to become financially free
The current state of your life and your level of success is a result of your past actions.
Since in every situation you are faced with a choice, your actions are a result of your thinking.
Living financially free and clear of all debt is not about money at all, its more about your thinking. Its about the way you think about your life and your money.
Working backwards, you will find that where you are in life right now is all a result of your thinking. Therefor, by changing the way you think you can change your level of success.
When trying to cut down on their expenses, most people focus to much on spending less.
Living a frugal lifestyle is one of the major pillars to financially freedom.
But, when you are able to balance a frugal lifestyle with positive thinking you will have taken a giant leap toward being successful.
Your income does not determine your worth.
Instead your income is determined your thinking!
By thinking positively and creatively you will add value to yourself. You will realise that you are able to generate a greater income by acting on your creative ideas.
If you hold a thought in your mind long enough you will begin to act in that certain way.
If you find yourself in a dark place, be like a plant and grow a root. Roots are grown under ground, where the pressure of the soil is restricting, but that soil is also a stabilizer. Roots are income streams, they draw up water and nuritients that help the plant to grow. In the same way you can often use your difficulties to draw experience and knowledge that others will find helpful and VALUABLE.
Look of the value of where you are right now. Draw on that. Try to use it in a way that might help others.
To be successful you have to respect your money, think bigger and look to add value.
This article is completely superficial and lacks any real advice in assisting South Africans get out of debt. There are societal and political factors that must be considered, an individual cannot be viewed in isolation from their context. How do you sell the “think bigger” fad to South Africans who have very real contraints, i.e a lack of education, blame them for their current disempowered position and by doing this further marginalising the already oppressed. A disgraceful article, that really must be removed from this webiste, if any assistance is to be offered to patrons visiting the website.

Thank-you for sharing your views.
I respect that you might not have been ready to receive the message in this article yet.
But, some people are ready. There are those who just need someone to remind them that they are born with all the skills and ability needed to be a success.
They’re tired of hiding behind their excuses; they’re tired of disqualifying themselves.
This article is meant for that person who is willing and brave enough to take on his challenges, and use them as a spring board to a new life.
You are bigger than your circumstance. You been knocked down. You’ve been held down. But, you’re not broken!
You are tougher than that problem. You are wiser and you have something valuable to share.
