What amount of salary is "enough"?

It reaches a time in our lives when we decide , it is time to look for another job that pays well. We start applying for jobs that seem like they pay much better than what we are currently earning. So you get excited when called for an interview, then later on being told you were successful . So the job pays you a net salary 500,000/= more than your previous salary.

At first you think now I can manage to live comfortably! Maybe you will be able to save more than you previously did. After 2-3 months you start feeling the same way you felt in your previous job. The money is not enough!

What amount of salary will make you comfortable? Will your pattern of spending remain the same as it was like the day you got your first job?

With additional income comes additional expenditures. All of a sudden you want to eat at good restaurants, you want to visit high class hotels and joints, because now you can afford it .

At the end of the day you go back to the same place you were before you got a salary change. Waiting for the paycheck at the end of the month.........

Changing your attitude can change your life

We come across a lot of people in a day, week, month. People of different backgrounds with different ideas and plans.

Some have reached where they are but they do not know the direction f their lives. You have your whole life ahead of you and yet you seem stuck in the present "hoping" and wishing you will be somewhere but not really making any effort to reach there.

Attitude plays a big role in becoming what you want to be.

 If you want to be a busy and good businesswoman or man you have to start with your attitude. Do not think of failure. Think of success. Change your environment to be the environment you want to be in.

It all starts with the right attitude......
