Recondition your attitudes towards funds
. Ulnearn what you have been taght or conditioned to believe about funds
. Accept that where you are at right now is OK and the n proceed forward without struggle. Struggle is created in our own minds and only our minds.
Im going to give you three definitions, and you guess what the word is. Are you ready?
1) to contend or fight violently with an opponent,
2) to make great efforts or attempts; strive; labor, and
3) to make ones way with difficulty. If youve guessed the word struggle, youre correct.
But why would we discuss struggle in an article about money? Because, so many many people
seem to struggle with moneythey struggle to build it, they struggle to keep it, and some even struggle with having too much.
I too, have struggled in my financial lifeuntil I made some changes. Not changes in my techniques of handling money or changes in my income, but instead, I decided to get off the funds
-worry rollercoaster. In other words, like a person who exits a fight, I stepped out of the ring.
First, I sat down and thought about some of the sayings Id heard in my own childhood. I quickly realized that I had been conditioned to struggle with money.
While growing up, I had been taught that it was noble to struggle. Unless there was blood, sweat and tears involved, things werent worth doing. The brain friendly way was the lazy way. After all, I should be pounding the pavement or hitting the books.
How many times have we heard these sayings, Money doesnt grow on trees! or Money is the root of all evil! or Do not
be funds
hungry!Hear me peopleweve been conditioned to believe that having funds
is hard work. That keeping money is hard work. That having too much money is hard work. In shortthat funds
is hard work.
In order to bow out of the struggle, I had to first, see that my beliefs we are
mere conditioning. Next, I just started to accept where I was at financially.
Like a dam that gives way and no longer has resistance, things began to flow. The excess energy that I used to expend struggling with money worries, I now put into actually generating funds
.
You can do the same. Stop worrying. Stop wrestling in your mind. Just accept where youre at now and then proceed ahead. Win the struggle with money by eliminating the struggle. It doesnt have to be hard, it just has to be.
Dont underestimate two things. First, do not
underestimate the amount of funds
conditioning youve received. It really has shaped your current financial position. Second, do not
underestimate the amount of energy you expend in the struggle itself. Remember, the old saying says, It takes two to tangle. If you step out of the ring, there is no struggle.
