Your relationship with money determines your ability to achieve financial independence and shows what you think about yourself and your self-worth.
Culture, religion, gender, family, childhood upbringing, and education all play an important role in your relationship with money.
What are your thoughts and beliefs about money? Do you tell yourself:
I need to save for a rainy day.
There is never enough money, too many bills.
I’m always broke.
Money controls my life.
I can’t afford nice things.
I am inundated with debt.
I need to make more money.
Money is stressing my out.
Money comes out of my account as fast as it comes in.
Money makes me powerless.
I can never get ahead financially.
That’s way too expensive.
I need to find a better deal.
Not being able to donate to charities makes me feel bad.
I’m not deserving of the money.
Digging deep down into your childhood can be a great way to learn about your current relationship with money and gain awareness about yourself, your beliefs, behaviors, and habits. Understanding your relationship with money will enable you to make the necessary changes towards abundance and prosperity.
If you constantly focus on financial lack, financial shame, or feel financial worry and anxiety, you will keep on attracting those situations causing lack, shame, worry, and anxiety. Changing your mindset and beliefs about money will create new basic thoughts and momentum that will inundate your life with positivity and good.
We are all worthy of abundance and prosperity.
Learning the effect of your financial behavior on your life and those around you, you start uncovering that you are truly worthy of everything in life. Your past does not define your worth.
As Robert A. Russell says… "You too can be prosperous!"
