Have you ever found yourself speaking or thinking any of the following statements?
- “I’ve never been good with money”
- “I hate budgets”
- “I can’t afford…”
- “I’ll never be a 6-figure earner”
- “It’s hard to make money as an Entrepreneur”
- “People won’t pay premium prices for my services”
If any of these statements have ever come out of your mouth, or been a thought that ran through your head, you, my friend, are engaging in a damaging habit known as negative self-talk. By telling yourself these lies (and believing them) you are essentially reinforcing the negativity and will inevitably experience or see these things manifest in your life and business.
What we visualize and believe is what experience
For example, if you are constantly repeating the narrative that you are not good with money, or budgets are hard, or that you can’t earn a 6-figure income, then guess what… you will struggle to manage your money, and when the opportunity to make more presents itself, you will resist, sabotage, or run away from it all together. Now, who really wants to live life like that??
These negative words and thoughts become self-fulfilling prophecies that plague us and either keep us in cycles of poverty and debt or limit our ability to create wealth in our lives, so that we can make an impact and live the lifestyles we truly want.
However, in choosing to speak and think differently about money and your relationship with it, you can begin to shift your behaviors and the decisions you make around money. Your approach to handling money or managing your business can change drastically. In fact, not only will your confidence increase, but you will start to align your behavior with actions that allow you to keep or attract more money. Instead of approaching money management from a place of fear or disbelief, you will do so from a place of confidence and fact-based information.
