I focus mostly on increasing my productivity, rather than focusing on finances. A key thing to understand is - finance is the consequence, rather than the source. The practical sequence is productivity -> performance -> wealth. And as a habit, I tend to be quite frugal, and always ensure I spend way less than I earn. And whatever "spends" I do, 80% of them are of investment type: 1. Building businesses 2. Building teams 3. Acquiring new skills 4. Helping others 5. Serving customer better 6. New projects As long as I remain highly productive, remain frugal, and keep investing time/energy/efforts into useful things, there haven't been any big financial troubles.
