When you work over time but don’t have money in your savings, then you’re not working smart enough. When you have two jobs but still can’t pay the bills, you’re not working smart enough. Sound familiar? If you want help, read on.

Maybe some of us have heard this term over and over again, and some have not. But what does that really mean?

In our life, we have usually heard of the old phrase from our parents that says, work hard, then you will live a good life. Nowadays, this old adage no longer works in today’s society. These days, hard working people can barely pay their bills and live loan to loan. Some of these people even work for two or three jobs to cover their living expenses.

First of all, the most important thing is time and money management. People who work smarter know how to manage their time and money. Time and money management is crucial. Successful people in this world know how to manage their time and money wisely.

What I meant by time and money management is to realize that by spending a little time controlling and managing a budget for your money, you will save a lot of money in the future. For example, let’s say you are trying to save $1000 each month. With an interest rate of 10%, you will have $400,000 in 20 years.

Now, do you see why the rich get richer? Because they know the value of time and money! Let me clarify this for you. Is it possible to save $1,000 a month from your unproductive habit? Many people will say yes. So, in shorts, you might want to revise your savings habits, to work smarter.

Second, find a job or business that can make you money, not the other way around. Hard working people always work for money, and if you pay attention to all smart people, money works for them. Please be careful that I am not saying rich people here.

Now you might think that you need a lot of money so that money can start working for you. Guess what, you are wrong! If you see in your society, there are many people who have the highest paying jobs, but still work for money, for example, doctors. There are many doctors who work for money. If they lost their job, they would go bankrupt, simply because they don’t work smarter.

With network marketing, the money will work for you once you put enough time and effort into building your network. It usually takes 2-3 years to build, depends on your performance. Once your network is built, the money will start working for you, and then you will work smarter. Compare it to your desk job that you have right now. After two or three years of hard work, what will you get if you are suddenly fired or quit your job? You will lose your income!

Moreover, with network marketing, you will use all your networking efforts and money to grow your business. So you don’t have to spend so much money on network marketing, but you use the whole network. That’s why you don’t need a big fortune to work smarter and make money work for you.

Now I’ve shown you a first step to working smarter. It’s your call, if you want to start working smarter or if you want to work harder. Life is about choices, and choices make this world wonderful.
