How to change your approach to money builds on last weeks episode. You can, and should change your approach to money to supercharge your finances. If you find you don’t handle money well, don’t save money, or just don’t know how to budget, here are seven ways to change your money mindset.1.      Firstly, Acknowledge your fearsWe all have fears when it comes to money. Ignoring them doesn’t help anything though. Instead, you need to sit with them and get comfortable with them. When you recognize your fears, you can find ways to push through them.If you let fear run your life, you won’t make good financial decisions or any decisions because you’ll feel stuck in your tracks. Instead, acknowledge anything you’re afraid of with money and take baby steps to overcome the fears.2.      Secondly, Set goalsYou can’t achieve financial goals if you don’t set them. No matter what you think about money and how you handle it, set financial goalsYou can’t budget or save if you don’t know why you’re budgeting or saving. Write down your goals, both short-term and long-term. Make sure they are SMART goals3.      Thirdly, surround yourself with like-minded peopleYou are who you surround yourself with so it’s important to spend time with people that have the same money goals as you.If you spend your time around people that complain about being broke and live a scarcity lifestyle, you’ll start doing the same. Instead, surround yourself with people that have the same beliefs about money that you do.They don’t have to be identical goals, but at least surround yourself with people that have a positive money mindset and aren’t negative in general so you don’t start acting negative too.4.      Fourthly, stop comparing yourselfIf you want to change your approach to money then don't compare yourself to others.  The only person you should compare yourself to is you. Don’t try to compete with anyone else or keep up with the Joneses. Set your own financial goals and find ways to achieve them.You do what’s right for you and find ways to make your goals happen. But don’t let other people’s successes or failures change how you think about yourself. For example, if your neighbor buys a BMW, don’t let yourself feel less than because you drive a Toyota. You never know what type of debt your neighbor put himself in to buy that BMW.5.      Dream big and make it happenEven if retirement is 20+ years away, dream about it. What will you do in retirement? At what age do you want to retire? Do you want to work or be completely free?Even if you’re drowning in debt and don’t have any money in your emergency fund, believe that you’ll get there and make it happen.6.      Learn to be gratefulWe’re all programmed to focus on the negative things in our lives, but what about the positives? Moreover, look for the positives you’ll find them, just like if you look for the negatives, you’ll find them.Take, for example, your debt. You might look at it and think ‘I’m such a loser, I have $5,000 in credit card debt and I’ll never get out of it’ or you could look at it and say, ‘I’ve knocked my debt down from $7,000 to $5,000, if I keep going, I’ll be out of debt before I know it.’7.      Know your whyYou can’t be financially successful if you don’t know your why. Think about the reasons you want to be financially successful.In your money mindset do you want to create a future for you and your family?  Does debt make you feel stressed? Write down your why and keep it posted so you can see it. When things get tough, always go back to your why.ConclusionKnowing how to change your approach to money, your money mindset has a positive impact on your personal finances. The way you think about money consciously and subconsciously has a big impact on how you deal with your personal finance.For more business and finance, news, advice and tips, don’t forget to subscribe and watch our weekly videos on I Hate Numbers, listen to our weekly podcast I Hate Numbers.My podcast will helpListen to find out more.Furthermore, my mission is to inform, inspire and educate you to get closer to your numbers.You can make more profits, save tax and time, improve your well-being and your money mindset.Help me to help you and others by subscribing and sharing this episode in your network.  Listen now and subscribe to I Hate Numbers, so I can send it straight to your inbox every week with all the latest updates.If you found this podcast useful then share this episode on social, leave a review on Apple podcast.  Connect with me on Instagram,YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook.

Understanding tax evasion and avoidance, is an essential piece of knowledge!

Making your business partnership work can be one of the greatest pleasures of having your own business. With that in mind, if you’re planning to start a business venture with a friend, family member or associate as your business partner read on.Don’t assume that everything will be hunky-dory from day one. After all, business partnerships go through rough patches too, just like marriages. So make sure you take certain steps to ensure yours doesn’t end in heartache and regrets.How to make business partnership's workTake the following steps and your business partnership should work from day one:Share similar valuesCheck beforehand that you and your business partner share the same vision, dream, goals, etc. A potential conflict where your partner does not share the same goals, core values and work ethic, for example, can spell disaster.A pre-existing success track record always helpsPlay it safeChoose a partner with whom you’ve had a past success track record and a generally positive business experience. Now, this doesn’t mean that choosing the right partner means having worked before is compulsory or you have to have a share with them in running a business in the past.It simply means that both of you have a track record of going through similar business experiences successfully. This will help relate to each other’s strengths, weaknesses or, say, limits. Plus, it’s best to look for a partner who can handle conflicts like you can, who has achieved similar goals and survived through rough patches, just like you.Explain and define each partner’s role within the partnershipThis helps to eliminate any potential disagreements, resentments, reservations or conflicts down the line. In fact, by clearing defining each partner’s responsibilities, scope, duties, etc. customers and employees can also benefit. Remember knowing who is responsible for overseeing which aspect of the business is very important.Choose the appropriate business structureA business partnership may be forged as a limited liability, limited or general one. However you may also organise it as a C corporation or S corporation partnership. Each one brings a distinct set of advantages and disadvantages, so talk to your business or financial advisor to determine the right one.Go with a partner who has a complementary skill setHaving a partner with complementary skills to yours means you can effectively double your strength as a team. For instance, if you’re a generally shy and somewhat introverted tech person looking to start an online business, it would be preferential to choose a partner who has good people, marketing and sales skills.Be honest with each otherDon't sweep matters under the rug!  you’re both going to hurt the partnership more than anything else. Talk things out openly but respectfully, sharing your opinions openly and honestly, and ironing out disagreements when they occur.Put everything in writingEven if your partner happens to be your closest mate from high school, you need to draft the appropriate legal documents and put everything in writing. This is a no brainer!These legal documents should have everything from the business structure and capital contribution to the business. Also, how decisions will be taken and how disputes will be resolved. Or, for example, what happens if one of the partner suddenly decides to ditch the business and move on. Consult a legal or financial advisor and put everything in there that could possibly go wrong. This way you’ll know exactly how to deal with it, if it ever comes to that.ConclusionSome of the above points can certainly be tough to discuss with your partner, especially when you just can’t wait to get the business going. However, you need to lay the foundation for a strong, fruitful and lasting business relationship.If you don't you may have to later deal with the heartache of a failed business partnership.For more business and finance, news, advice and tips, don’t forget to subscribe and watch our weekly videos on I Hate Numbers, listen to our weekly podcast I Hate Numbers.My podcast will helpListen to find out more.Furthermore, my mission is to inform, inspire and educate you to get closer to your numbers.You can make more profits, save tax and time, improve your well-being and your money mindset.Help me to help you and others by subscribing and sharing this episode in your network.  Listen now and subscribe to I Hate Numbers, so I can send it straight to your inbox every week with all the latest updates.If you found this podcast useful then share this episode on social, leave a review on Apple podcast .  Connect with me on Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook,https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/proactiveresolutionss-podcast/id1500471288https://open.spotify.com/show/5lKjqgbYaxnIAoTeK0zinshttps://www.stitcher.com/podcast/proactiveresolutionss-podcasthttps://tunein.com/podcasts/Business–Ec

Successful employee handbook is what helps reduce your business heartache. Problems within a business can occur because there is a lack of clarity on some subjects. Mainly, the issues which arise are around the expectations of the business. The employees and the owner may not have the same set of ethics either, or there could just be a communication barrier. If you are having any heartache due to employee relations and do not have an employee handbook for your business, it's a good idea to get one put into place and quickly.What is an employee handbook?They are a guide to your business. It is a way in which you can clearly establish the overall business mission and goals. Within your business’s employee handbook, you will define what makes your business great and then relate the various areas of your businesses operations to the employee to ensure that everything runs smoothly. Handbooks should lie out the procedures of your day-to-day and long-term procedures needed. You should also have a statement of ethics so that there are no issues between employee to employee or employee to management personnel.Apart from establishing the guide to your business, the handbook acts as a structure to the overall success of your business. In turn this can help alleviate stress and heartache in your business. First, your policies and values are given to the potential employee. They give a clear and direct approach to behaviour which will and not be accepted . Second, the business’s handbook also tells the employee of the culture of your business. By this, it means the overall feel and function of the business. Every personality is distinct. Therefore, you must account for there being potential candidates for a job whose work environment needs differ.Why are they useful?There are several benefits from writing your Successful employee handbook. However, there are three areas which are key. These are education, establishment, and explanations.EducationEducation is for the employee. This part of the manual shows the person the policies, the values, the expectations, the attendance policies, scheduling, and such. It is critical that employees know what is expected of them. But, you cannot just give them a quick lecture and expect the information to stick. Employees need to have a means of double-checking. An employee handbook is a good way in which you can ensure compliance across the board. Word of mouth could become distorted or misinterpreted. Only through having a written manual can you your intentions are clarified.EstablishmentThis highlights the behavioural and non-negotiable areas of the business. While there are some areas which can be negotiated (such as pay) there are others which are not. Behaviours which are common to businesses, such as a non-harassment section, should be placed within the establishment section of the handbook.ExplanationsThese ensure you are following all laws mandated. They should be just as the name states, explanations of all the laws and other mandates. These laws should be quoted. If there are any areas which may seem unclear, the employee handbook is helpful as it provides the clarity needed for then to maintain the laws and mandates. You could put a copy of these laws, procedures, and stipulations in the handbook.Now that you know what an employee handbook is and why it is needed for a business. The next step is creating one. But where do you start? Here are a few tips to get you on your way.Tips for creating your handbookCreating your successful employee handbook does not have to be a daunting task. There are a few tips which can be followed which will help you in making the best guide for your business.Work slowly on your handbook – avoid rushing writing it as you get lots of issues by doing this. Take the time to know your overall business goals and how you intend to meet them.Look for loopholes – A loophole in your employee handbook is an area where you need to define or expound upon information. If you have found a loophole eventually an employee will as well. By plugging the holes, you create clarity and consistency throughout your business.Make a code of ethics, an established hierarchy, and procedural guide – All businesses need to have a code of conduct, an established hierarchy, and a procedural guide. Ethics ensures that you have the right people working for your business. Hierarchy is necessary to keep problems from escalating, and procedures show how you will handle those issues.Overall, you will need to write clearly, avoid ambiguous statements, and have everything defined about your business’s operations so that there is no room for doubt.ConclusionIf you have questions after listening to this podcast, don't hesitate to reach out!  We're here for you every step of the way.
