Wealth Beliefs. How Effective is Your Money Blueprint?
Wealth Beliefs. What result is your money blueprint getting? Learn how your attitudes are affecting your finances and success.
What are your beliefs about money? Do you feel that money is good or evil? Do you think that you must work hard in order to get rich? Do you believe that for some reason you were destined to whatever financial situations you find yourself in?
Do you not know what you wealthy beliefs are? Well take a look at the financial results you are getting in your life and you will see a direct correlation between your results and your beliefs about money. Your beliefs about money, which T. Harv Eker calls your "money blueprint," really have a profound effect on your financial life. Therefore, knowing what beliefs you have about money, and therefore understanding why your financial situation is the way it is, is the first step in changing your money blueprint, your wealth beliefs, so that you can start having more success with money.
Let's take a look at some of the most common negative beliefs about money and wealth. These are what we call limiting beliefs because they greatly limit the amount of financial success you will be able to achieve. If any of these beliefs ring true for you, it will be your job to switch it for more constructive ones, which we will discuss shortly.
Limiting Wealth Beliefs
The pessimistic thinking that you do not have any control over your financial situation, that your future is predetermined.
The belief that having a lot of money makes you greedy or selfish toward others. That by having a lot, other people have less.
Thinking just because you do not currently have a surplus of money, that you will not be able to find opportunities to build wealth. That it "takes money to make money."
The limiting belief that you cannot get rich because you are not smart enough, educated enough, or experienced enough. Basically, thinking that you are not good enough to get rich.
The incredibly false belief that building wealth needs to take all of your time and energy. That it is simply not worth all the work that it takes to get rich.
The negative thought that if you get rich, other people will resent your or dislike you for it. Thinking that you will lose people because of your money.
Did any of these negative wealth beliefs ring true for you? If so, you have a "money blueprint" that is holding you back in your financial endeavors. The good news is that awareness of your negative and limiting beliefs is the first essential step toward correcting the problem. And it is a problem because no matter how hard you work and strive for wealth, if you do not have the right mindset, your goals will elude you endlessly.
Now that you may have pinpointed some negative beliefs that you hold about wealth, lets look at the positive sides to each of the beliefs that we mentioned above. These are the attitudes that make up a constructive money blueprint, otherwise known as the wealth consciousness that attracts money and opportunity into your life.
Supportive Money Beliefs
The optimistic attitude that you have full control over your financial situation, that you make your life as you choose.
Having more money yourself means that you can give more and share more with others. Who can you help if you are broke too?
Realizing that it does not take money to make money, that there are many wealth building opportunities that only require an investment of time, not money.
Knowing that you are not limited by a lack of education, intelligence, or experience. That anyone can get rich when they are motivated and optimistic.
Getting rich is not all about working hard, but rather working smart. Knowing that there are ways to automate your income so you can get rich without working.
Understanding that people who truly care about you, love you, and want to see you reach your potential will be glad to see you succeed. If someone doesn't want to see you succeed, should you even care what they think?
Can you see how these positive beliefs about money and wealth are much more supportive? Does it make sense that by adopting these attitudes in place of any negative ones will greatly enhance your ability to build wealth? Good, that means that you are on the right track.
Knowing this means that you can stop yourself when you are thinking negatively, and you can consciously change your thoughts to more positive and constructive ones. This will give you the courage, confidence, and positive mental attitude that will enable you to set grand financial goals, strive for them, and make them your reality.
