Take Off Your Rose Colored Aviators

Many people have a warped perception of what is actually going on in their world.

If you don’t stop deceiving yourself, you’re not going to achieve the success you want in your life.

I realize these are some pretty heavy statements but please let me explain. As humans everyone of us is guilty of this but here is how you acknowledge it and learn how to use it to your advantage…

I’m taking a course right now called Self-Made Wealth that has really shed some light on how people (including myself) behave and why, especially when it comes to money and success… I’d like to share a few thoughts…

When we are very young we become a product of our environment and are very impressionable… think back to the first thoughts and emotions you have had around money – are they positive?

The majority of people would actually say “not really NO”.

We create a story about money and most people have a negative interpretation about people who are wealthy. We create our own perception of what it means to have an abundance of wealth and actually work as our own worst enemy in creating a story with numerous limiting beliefs around why we are in our own current personal financial situation.

We like to put external blame on others instead of taking 100% responsibility

for our own decisions and behaviors where money is concerned. Awareness in this area is the first step to creating change in our financial situation and attracting wealth.
