The Truth About Money Mindset

Money mindset is a big talk these days. 
​
Some people even believe that they can wish their debt away. I am not trying to pop anyone's unicorn balloon here but the truth is as much as the law of attraction is true there is a methodology to create the perfect money mindset. 

First let's be clear on the law of attraction. Our brains are like a WiFi device. We emit signals that the Universe (I call him God) has a way to bring those things into fruition  -  good or bad. The old saying that disasters come in threes comes from the mindset that as soon as something bad happens we are like 'OK, what is next?'. The opposite happens when we are on such a good strike that we are almost "high on positivity " that we attract more good things and tend to overlook the not so great things. 

Then there is the whole "money mindset" being used as a marketing strategy. Lots of gurus are teaching these money mindsets in order to sell you something that is out of your budget and unless you have these "money mindset hat" on you know better than buy it.  Just wrong. 

Here is what I do believe about money mindset: It will come once you get the practical side of money down. It is impossible to have a positive mindset when you can't pay your mortgage and are living paycheck to paycheck. You cannot thrive when you are trying to survive (someone said this - forgot who it was but I will credit them when I come across this quote again).

The mindset will come naturally when you feel more in control. When you have a budget, an emergency fund, and a cushion. It will come when you know where that next client will come from and what you should do today to make sure your tomorrow will be peaceful.  Most of the mindset will come naturally.

The part that doesn't come naturally you will have to dig deep and change the way you talk to yourself about money. You will have to change those ingrained thoughts that are mostly a reflection of our childhood and our struggles. 

All of that money mindset will be forever changed  when you realize that you are no longer that person - when you start believing that you have grown, you have flourished and you have done and will do amazing things!
