There is a special habit that financially successful people learn or develop over time. It is the habit of responding to incoming money in a particular way.
People very early begin to associate spending with happiness and saving with pain.
Since the basic human motivation is to move away from pain toward pleasure, from discomfort toward comfort, and from dissatisfaction toward satisfaction, most people develop the habit of associating spending with enjoyment and saving with unhappiness.
Most people who become financially successful develop the habit of thinking in terms of the pleasure and satisfaction they get from saving, investing and growing their money. Most financial failures on the other hand get most of their pleasure out of thinking of ways they can spend their money as quickly as they acquire it.
