Learn a simple way to overcome limiting beliefs about money.
New listeners hit SUBSCRIBE!
One of the ways we get limiting beliefs is through good intentions. I mean our well-intentioned parents are trying to communicate with their children about money. Sometimes they forget that the perspective they are giving us is not going to serve us long-term.
I remember when I was invited to go on a swim team trip to Florida for 3 days. It involved a flight from Seattle, 2 nights hotel and money for meals, transfers and miscellaneous things. My mom wouldn’t let me go because she thought it was too expensive for a short trip. I was devastated because everyone else was going. It was embarrassing, heart breaking and it was hard to understand. At 16, it’s hard to understand the decisions parents make sometimes. As an adult, now I totally understand, but at the time all I knew was the rest of the team was going and I wasn’t.
Today we’re going to explore things our parents said to us because these things have a way of getting into our subconscious and creating block and limiting beliefs.
Write down some of your beliefs and possible blocks to money (hint: they may be subconscious) and think about phrases your parents said to you regarding money. Can you think of some? Did you ever hear:
A. We can't afford it B. Money doesn't grow on trees C. I'm not made of money D. We're not rich
...Which one did you hear or add another negative money phrase. Make sure you are writing down your progress toward building wealth in your Wealth Journal.
