How To Makeover Your Money Mindset

How To Makeover Your Money Mindset

Money is a highly charged issue for most of us, which means most of us have also got a big ol’ pile of money blocks to match. Watching your parents struggle to survive imprints a powerful message onto a young mind: money is hard work to get and even harder work to keep.

But even if your family had a healthy relationship with money when you were young, you may have still unconsciously picked up a negative attitude towards it. Society often unfairly paints money as being evil or wrong. Just think of all the common money sayings you’ve heard over the years: “money’s the root of all evil”, “money doesn’t grow on trees”.


Internalizing all of these messages is what creates a money block.



As with any block, the most important thing to do first is realize that you have one.

So let’s stop right here for a quick money pep talk:

Money is a necessary element of modern life. Needing or wanting more of it doesn’t make you a bad person! You no longer need to justify yourself. It doesn’t matter if you’re supposed to be too spiritual or artistic to care. We all have to care about money to some degree and having a healthy relationship with money is just part of healthy self-esteem. You deserve to get everything you want in this life, money included.

So if you’re reading this article, you’ve got my explicit permission to begin to boldly seek attracting more money into your life. Now let’s begin the journey with these 5 money mindset tweaks:


5 Ways To Flip Your Money Mindset


Money Mindset Tip #1:

Forgive Your Past



There’s no use in beating yourself up for all of eternity about that $100 you foolishly spent on shoes three years ago. The past is over and all we can do is learn from our mistakes and move on. If that involves dealing with debt, aim to take the emotion out of it. Try treating it like just another bill, not yet another opportunity to ponder exactly how much money you spent on booze back in college.


Money Mindset Tip #2:

Get Grateful



There’s a saying for that: First World Problems. Despite how poor or stressed you’re feeling about money, try to remember that 80% of the world’s population lives on less than $10 a day. If you’re able to read this article, you’re already one of the lucky ones. Your laptop, phone, car, bed and even the clean water from your tap are all things worthy of celebration. (Could you imagine going even one day without them?)

Not to mention the fact that gratitude is also a great way to tell The Universe: “Hey this is awesome! I want more of this!”

Remember energy goes where attention flows!

So try to get pumped about what you already own. Look around your home or take a peek in your closet. I’m sure there’s something you already own that makes you deliriously grateful! Now hold onto that grateful feeling for as long as you can and as often as you can.


Money Mindset Tip #3:

Use A Money Mantra



Our brains are creatures of habit and they cling all too stubbornly to old thought patterns. Mantras offer an easy way for us to rewire and retrain our brain over time.

So if you experience pangs of guilt or fear about spending your cash, then using a mantra is an awesome way to snap out of that bad habit. Instead of falling into those comfy old thought patterns, try thinking “There’s plenty more where that came from!” as you pay your bill.

You can also use gratitude as a mantra in itself. Train yourself to always thank the bill you’re paying, even if it’s for something you’re not all that keen about (dentist bills, speeding tickets, etc.). “Hey thanks dentist bill for cleaning my teeth!”


Money Mindset Tip #4:

Pay It Forward



There’s no more abundant action that treating a friend or making a charitable donation. Giving stuff away feels really good and we’re typically more inclined to do it when we’re feeling flush. But you don’t have to wait for the money to show up first.

If you’re feeling poor, it’s time to take positive action. Try forking out a little extra cash to pay for your colleague’s Starbucks order. Or go bigger and set up automatic monthly donation to a charity of your choice. Actively choosing to spend your money on something bigger than you is the ultimate sign of financial control and abundance.


Money Mindset Tip #5:

Declutter



What does getting rid of stuff have to do with money? Well a whole lot as it turns out! The first thing to understand is that it’s important to make space for new stuff to come into your life. There really shouldn’t be room in your life for things that no longer serve you, whether that’s your old trainers or your ex-boyfriend. (Ha!)

The second thing to understand is that money is attracted to both positive action and free space; it naturally wants to flow in and all around you. Decluttering ticks both boxes! So no more excuses: take an afternoon and tackle your closet, the garage, the junk drawer in the kitchen. It will always be worth it.


A Caveat


Money is one of the most popular manifestation topics for a reason: we all seem to want more of it. But it’s a good idea to remember that money is only a tool and what we really want goes a lot deeper than plain ol’ cash.

When we think about money, we’re actually desiring feeling respected or secure or free. It’s a good idea to remind yourself that those feelings are available to you any time, no matter what your bank balance happens to say.




I hope this post helps you zap a few of your money blocks. It’s an ongoing practice and I’m still working on getting rid of all of mine. But the more I work on it, the easier it gets and I’m sure the same will apply for you.

Thank you so much for reading!

Reminder: THIS ISN'T YOUR FOREVER PLACEMeaning: Reminder: THIS ISN'T YOUR FOREVER PLACEMeaning: whether good OR bad, this moment is only temporary.And even when the sh*t is hitting the fan, there's so MORE to your story than what's on the surface.Let me get personal for a moment.I've been pretty open here about my dark night of the soul story.(Basically, going from being married, living in a beautiful loft apartment, having a successful business with my partner to getting dumped, business dissolving & living in my parents basement. Overnight!)Way back then I was FIRMLY stuck on what was happening to me.The worst part was really the fact that I was telling myself I would never be happy again. I lost & game over.Looking back now, I can see how it was THAT particular story of mine that was the most painful and damaging.Feeling hopeless fed my depression and really made me feel like there wouldn't even be a point in TRYING to do anything great ever again.But I'm happy to say I was SO wrong about that!Back then I firmly FELT like I was in my forever place--even though it WASN'T.Bit by bit, I healed myself. I got stronger. I started listening to my soul desires and got busy with manifesting them all into reality.NOW I know that the lessons I learned back then have been my most valuable.They led me to TRUST myself and in the journey, even through fear, self-doubt and not always knowing WHERE I was going next.Without that moment, I'm sure I would NOT be here: with a book and business I'm so proud of, living out my dreams in Europe.So today I just want to REMIND you: there's more to your story only always.I know 2020 was tough for so many of us (Corona, BLM & more)And maybe you needed to read this today.So please know: you might not be able to see how it's all coming together right now.But trust that one day down the road, you'll look back and see:That THIS exact, with all the suffering and hardship WASN'T all in vain.It actually all came together to make me who I was ALWAYS meant to be.

Oh hey there friend! 💗There are lots of new f Oh hey there friend! 💗There are lots of new faces here & it's been a little while since I last introduced myself.So hello! My name is Jenn & I'm on a mission to connect you to your MAGIC.I teach you how to create the life you want by using your MIND.You might have heard that you can use the Law of Attraction to attract what you want through your emotional states.Which IS true.But most of us don't realize that our THOUGHTS create our emotional state.Repeated thoughts become beliefs.And those beliefs create our MINDSET.So when you have a low sense worthiness around ANYTHING you happen to want to manifest, you WILL see only lack and limitation.You WILL buy into the old programming that tells you you could never do/be/have that.You WILL secretly self-sabotage and get in the way of the very things you want so much.I used to feel lost and down on myself. And I used to HATE what my life was like.But something inside of me was pointing me in the direction of learning more about spirituality and personal development.The more I learned about manifestation + the brain, the moer the pieces began to click together.And the faster my life began to RAPIDLY change!(Check out my story on how I manifested my book deal for example.)I'm telling you this because I KNOW you can create so many of those dreams of yours, if you JUST learn how to get out of your own way.And that's what I'm on a mission to do, every single day.Want to work with me? You can get started with manifestation with my Manifestation Journaling Workshop.Or if you're ready to go deeper in a private setting, drop me a DM to learn more about my hypno-coaching program!AND PS - I'm also about to launch my Recode membership site (which I'm SOOO excited about). So stay tuned for that!But I'm SO DAMN EXCITED to have you here for this journey! And I thank you so much for being part of my little manifestation community. Now--let's TRANSFORM!
Getting on the manifestation train, who's coming? Getting on the manifestation train, who's coming?Emoji me below if you're part of Team Manifestation! 👇👇
What do YOU need to believe to create your next le What do YOU need to believe to create your next level-reality?Remember: your old beliefs created the life you're living now.But instead of getting upset about that, it's SO much more useful to think on where we want to go next.So what do YOU want to create?And what do YOU need to believe in order to get there?This is the CREATION part of being a Conscious Creator: meaning that YOU get to decide on what your life looks like. But you also have to do the work to CREATE it, starting from the inside out.So get excited about what YOU are going to start believing in next! &  happy weekend to you #teammanifestation !
