Take Control: Developing Practical Frugal Mindset Habits
Today, Mansa Musa returns with eight practical habits to help you cultivate a frugal mindset, and it all starts with identifying your “why.”
For the past few weeks on Take Control Tuesday, we’ve been exploring what it really means to live a frugal lifestyle—and how powerful it can be when done with purpose.
Today, Mansa Musa returns with eight practical habits to help you cultivate a frugal mindset, and it all starts with identifying your “why.” For Mansa, that “why” was clear: he wanted to be financially independent. That deeper motivation gave meaning to every budgeting decision, every intentional choice to save, and every moment of discipline.
As you listen, take notes and reflect on your own reasons for wanting to live more intentionally with your money. And be sure to share this information—because living frugally isn’t about being “cheap” or depriving yourself. It’s about shifting your mindset. It’s about aligning your spending with your values and long-term goals.

Remember: when you change the way you think about money, you change the way you live.

About Randi Myles:
I am a child of God that has a lot to say.
Here you will find conversations with artists, authors, speakers, and teachers within the faith-based community. Also, my journey has been colorful, rich, and sometimes really hard so, I look for answers and respite through these posts. My mom wanted me to write a book and I'm working on that, so bear with me as I fumble my way through.
I am working on balancing my extremely fun work life with my personal life that is filled with challenges these days. I know that God will see me to victory so... welcome to my life.
