Do we love it – or do we hate it?
Maybe both . . .
The world we’ve created makes it so we need it.
It’s how we eat, sleep in comfort, stay clothed, and partake in experiences.
Everything around us is getting more expensive and our wages are somewhat reflecting that . . . but maybe not near enough.
Most of us are living paycheck to paycheck, working 2, 3 or even 4 jobs, just to pay rent.
Did it ever occur to you that we are the only species on this planet that p a y s to live here.
uuhhh what?! yeah . . hmm…..
Lets figure this out.
I’ve been working on this topic for a few years now . . . and with the help of many, we ARE figuring it out. So it’s my turn to guide you through this same process I went through, so money doesn’t have to be an issue for us anymore.
Yes, one person can make an incredible difference in the world. But it takes a community of us to get that ripple effect really going and that full shift to actually occur.
I’ve done a lot of work on my mindset around money over the past few years. Where my beliefs around money came from and learning how shifting my thoughts about it drastically shifted my reality with it.
I read so many books and attended seminars all about Money Mindset and how we can take back our control over it.
Right now money controls everything we do . . . or rather everything we don’t end up doing.
Here is a little bit of what I learned.
( there will be much more to come as this is such a focal point in our reality today that so many of us are struggling with. I offer coaching around this area as well if that interests you )
Money is energy.
And we are constantly printing and making more of it. It is endless and abundant.
Kinda of like how our skin is continuously replacing itself . . . just as the sun is constantly shining and giving us energy.
The collective mindset right now however, is not one of abundance. It is one of scarcity and lack.
Right now the energy around money is not good. We say it’s evil, people who have it are greedy, money is what ruins relationships etc.
We pretty much say we don’t want it.
If you’ve been following along with me for awhile now, you’ve heard me talk about the Law of Attraction. How what we think and feel is what we get. Like attracts like. Like vibrations, attract like vibrations.
Marinate on that for a minute . . .
or maybe a few
We are saying/thinking daily we don’t like money and how bad it is.
We don’t like paying bills. That meal was too expensive. I don’t have enough to buy that or do this.
We create our realities. By saying, thinking, and feeling these statements, we are attracting more of that back to us. ( like attracts like )
Are you following . . . ?
No wonder its not in our lives.
If money was a friend . . . it wouldn’t stick around either! At least I wouldn’t, and I hope you would’t either.
My money mindset has been the hardest thing for me to flip flop. I grew up doing things I didn’t want to do for money. It was ingrained at a relatively young age, that in order to make money I had to do something I didn’t want to do.
No guys, this isn’t true.
Once I fully understood this, and started playing with it and tried making money doing the things I DID enjoy that not only enriched my life, but others as well . . . the flip flop occurred. My perspective on money dramatically shifted.
Money does NOT have to be the root of all evil.
It is whatever we make it.
Money is what allows us to eat. To sleep in comfort. To enjoy the luxuries we do have.
It is about changing the story we tell ourselves.
Instead of ‘I hate paying rent’ —> I am grateful I have the money to afford a place to keep me warm.
Positive Affirmations will take you E x t r e m e l y far. And can do so VERY quickly if done consistently.
Look up Positive Money Affirmations on google.
Become consistent about repeating them to yourself daily.
Become aware of how you feel when you earn and spend money.
Change your actions to GRATITUDE.
and see how your life changes.
In a matter of just a couple months . . . sometimes even days . . . you will begin to see a shift.
And just to make sure we are all still on the same page . . .
This does not mean be careless. Like everything else this energy needs to be organized ( our universe is organized) and used for GOOD.
Our views on money are what they are today because we didn’t choose wisely in the past.
Be grateful we get the chance to choose again. This time with good intentions.
