Welcome back my friend.
I hope that this podcast has you feeling abundant. I love working with people in that area of balance and abundance and teaching them how to create the mindset that creates those exact results.
So let’s get started right now. This is episode 21 and we are going to talk about money blocking language from the way we think and speak. Why? Because it blocks the flow of money to you.
It would seem that they are just words so what’s the harm. That’s what I hope to answer for you today.
When you say that money doesn’t grow on trees, it sounds true because of course it doesn’t, but what it implies IS what makes this sentence harmful.
The implication is that money is hard
When we have a poor relationship with money, and we think that money is hard, it is difficult to see all of the opportunities available to us to create, invite or attract money.
Given the opportunity, we would all like to accumulate more money and live an abundant life.
It’s not just how we think that matters, it’s also how we speak, out loud, to others, how we think and talk about money.
The things that we think and how we speak about money IS what is creating our money result and has us living this money story.
In episode 18, Abundance Mindset, we talked about awareness, so hopefully, over the last few weeks you have become more aware of the thoughts that might be creating money blocks and other blocks to abundance.
This week I want to give some thoughts and language to exchange for the money thoughts that do not serve you.
Now, here is the key, you must also work on believing the new thoughts.
Here is why…
Remember, it’s our thoughts that create our emotions and our emotions become fuel for our actions. When we think a thought that does not generate an emotion, we are fueled to take action.
When you take action from a thought that you believe, you will be fueled by higher octane emotions and your actions will be more creative, thoughtful, productive and massive.
When you take action from a thought you just think, but you don’t believe, you will be fueled lower octane emotions like…disbelief, uncertainty, doubtful, hesitant, distrust, cynical…I think you get the picture.
Imagine if you are trying to create the outcome of a promotion or a higher paying job.
Now imagine applying or posting or interviewing, all the actions from not believing that you will create the result. Low octane emotions.
Probably not going to show up as you highest and best self.
But when you believe in the inevitability that you will create your outcome, you will invite, create and attract the result into your life…now how do you feel, now how do you show up.
That’s why just repeating mantra’s and positive affirmation don’t give you any traction when it comes to actually removing money blocks and creating different money results.
Just repeating the thought that you are a money magnet, and everything you touch turns to gold is probably not going to give you much movement emotionally unless and until you truly believe it.
So, that’s where possibility thoughts from episode 2 become very useful.
We can start by asking ourselves, “what do we want to believe about money?” “What is a thought about money that does serve me?”
Here are some thoughts and words that I want you to never ruminate on again these words put all together in a sentence and spoken in your life create money blocks.
- I am broke
- I can’t afford it
- That’s expensive
- I am terrible with money
- I got passed over
- Not in the budget
None of these thoughts serve you and they have you focusing on staying right where you are.
This week, go deeper into your money belief’s and rewrite the script of your money story with new thoughts.
Here are a few sentences that might be useful.
- I am learning how to write a new money story.
- I can afford anything; I choose not to make this purchase.
- That’s high end or premium or deluxe.
- I am figuring out how to be better with money.
- A better offer is coming my way.
- Doesn’t align with my money plan or money strategy.
These are great sentences to really sit with, practice, look for evidence of these thoughts already manifesting in your life.
Another exercise that I want to offer you this week is visualization. I love the idea of redesigning your life using the science of visualization.
Visioneering…I love that word.
Practice feeling how it would feel to have the exact amount of money that you desire.
Decide what that number is. Practice sitting in the space of already having it. We talked about this last week.
It’s important to access the “having” emotions so that you are fueled to take action that is coming from a place of abundance vs scarcity.
Remember, we create abundance from feeling abundant, it does not get created from feeling lack.
The mistake that people make is thinking that they must create the wealth first in order to feel abundant, the opposite is true.
You must access the fuel so that you show up as a vibrational match to whatever it is that you are trying to create in your life. This works for everything, not just money.
That’s the beauty of this work. You can start out working on one area of your life and apply it to all areas of your life.
Let’s talk a little about what it means to be a vibrational match to money.
Your thoughts about money create an emotion. An emotion is just a vibration in your body. Imagine feeling the feeling of guilt or shame as it relates to money. That’s a low energy vibration in your body.
On the other hand, think of getting a raise and feeling what that feels like, or a bonus or getting an unexpected check in the mail. That feeling has a totally different vibration in your body.
Between the two scenarios, which one has you walking a little peppier, showing up a little happier, being generous, feeling thankful, all the things?
That is why it’s important to work on the relationship that you have with money. If you are uncomfortable, it will create a block.
Think about how you show up when you are with someone and you start feeling uncomfortable. You kind of back away, get more quiet, sink back a little, maybe you even ignore them or excuse yourself from them.
Think about a situation in which you felt resentment for someone. How did you show up then? Maybe quiet, short, curt, snarky.
I know how I show up when I feel uncomfortable or resentful. It’s definitely not in a way that is a magnet for good time.
That’s exactly what’s going on with us and our relationship with money.
Ask yourself the following questions and get really honest about it.
- Do you resent money or people with money?
- Do you hold money responsible for your current reality?
- Do you believe money makes you greedy, or selfish?
- Do you have zero trust in your relationship with money?
- Do you ever feel like you have enough?
How strong do you think your relationship with your special person in your life would be if you felt like they were never enough or you didn’t trust them or that they made you greedy and selfish.
I know if feels odd to think about money like this but remember, this podcast is all about the mind shift that creates a different result. If you are digging your money results…rock on but if not dig in.
I want you to feel comfortable, enoughness, secure, safe, calm and peaceful about money. Generous and thankful. All of those emotions are possible as it relates to money.
I am living proof, my husband is living proof, many of my students are living proof so I know what is possible for you.
This week, when you pay your bills, I want you to practice being excited about it.
The bill is neutral…It’s the thought that we have that makes the bill good or bad, positive or negative.
Be excited that there is more where that came from. And believe that there is…
If you are ready to take this work deeper and apply it to your life, ping me.
Let’s rewrite your money story.
Alright my friends, have the best week ever!
