Thinking on the things of earth and focusing on material goals is being earthly minded. However, Kingdom thinking seeks God's will and purpose, aside from the cost to self!
There can be a subtle difference between seeing God as a means of obtaining our will and pleasures and seeing ourselves as a means of accomplishing God's Kingdom will. The latter is filled with eternal rewards and elevates God to His rightful place in our lives.
Today I ask you, are you God's servant or is He yours? Does your view of God lean toward the temporal side or are you thinking on the eternal side and wanting to fulfill the purposes of God?
If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God (Col 3:1-3).
