Are Your Parent's Beliefs Impacting Your Money?
When it comes to attracting money, it all depends on what you think and believe about money.
What do you think when you see wealthy people?
Do you see money as a blessing or a curse?
Do you think winning the lottery or inheriting money from some rich relative is the only way to change your financial situation?
Think again! Take note of what is going on in your mind and body when you answer any of the above questions.
Because answers to these questions indicate why you're in the financial state that you're in…and, if you're trying to get out of that state, why you haven't succeeded yet.
You may have tried a few things here and there for some time, trying to improve your financial situation. Or you might have changed jobs to get that pay raise, tried to save money, or cut back on your spending, but you have yet to see much difference.
Why ?
The simple answer is 'Your beliefs.' Your beliefs about money subconsciously affect it all. You won't get anywhere, no matter how much you change the outside patterns. You will only get somewhere if you change your thoughts.
It's like having your garage overflowing with stinking stuff. No matter how much you paint the garage door and spray perfume, it will change the situation if you CLEAN your garage.
You develop these beliefs at a very early age from other people and also through your surroundings.
Sit back and think
What did you hear about money when you were a kid? Is it 'We can't afford it,' 'Money doesn't grow on trees,' 'Rich are greedy,' or 'money is not essential?
Did you see your parents working very hard to earn money and mostly end up not having much? How did you see them manage their money?
What was your impression of people who have more money? How did you see them when you were a child? Did you think they were spoiled or greedy? Did they do something which makes you decide that 'You don't want to be like them?'
You are using all your senses to develop your money beliefs at a very early age. And the sad truth is these beliefs formed at an innocent age continue to haunt you throughout your life unless YOU CONSCIOUSLY DECIDE TO CHANGE THEM .
With professional help, you can completely overcome this lifetime trauma and change your financial belief system and Bank balance.
When you really understand money, you will know there is no scarcity. There is enough for everyone, including you. So it is entirely natural to want the best in life! That's how we progressed from cave dwellers to modern society.
Today I invite you to take account of your money beliefs, see where they come from, and what new thoughts you want instead?
Write them down. Make your new beliefs part of your life and see yourself soar to a new financial height.
And if you are a parent, think hard...
what money beliefs are you passing down to your children?
