[tweetthis]Money is a mind game.[/tweetthis]
It’s a mind game because what you think about money has a direct impact on how much money you make and keep.
We’ve all heard of the person who came into great wealth either by business earnings, lottery or inheritance only to lose all of it. The reality is that whether you earn it, win it or inherit it – if you lose it, the financial disaster is because of what’s going on in your head.
I once read that 1 in 3 lottery winners will end up in financial trouble or completely bankrupt! How the heck does that happen? It happens because they are poor (remember, poor is their mindset) people, trying to stuff big money into themselves. It’s about as effective as overfilling a balloon. Eventually the balloon pops and the water drains away. The same holds true for money. If the container (you) isn’t big enough to hold the wealth then eventually the money will disappear.
So what’s the problem? Thoughts. Thoughts lead to feelings. so if the thoughts are off, then the feelings of wealth aren’t there either and eventually money goes by-by.
Your thoughts come from your money story – that inheritance you were given. Change the story and you can change how much wealth you attract and keep. How’s your money story?
Remember, your wealth can only grow to the extent that you do!
