After reading Steve's blog post on what he learned from being bankrupt in his 20's, I realized I had some bad financial beliefs. Well, I knew I had some, but I hadn't really examined it yet to see what they were
. Reading through his post really helped me see what those bad financial beliefs were. Thus I'm going to change them.
I thought I'd check in and see if my new financial beliefs are really good ones to have, if I'm not missing anything in adopting them, if I should tweak them or not, or adapt different new beliefs.
OLD BELIEF #1 :
“If I’m in Debt and Broke, my life is ruined”
NEW BELIEF #1:
“If I’m in Debt and Broke, that only affects on part of my life - the finances. The rest of my life can still be fun, joyous and truly amazing!”.
OLD BELIEF #2:
“If I’m in Debt and broke, that means I can’t work on what I love”
NEW BELIEF #2:
“If I’m in debt and broke, the only way I’ll get out of debt is by working on what I love”
OLD BELIEF #3:
“Working for what you love is more important then the money you make”
NEW BELIEF #3:
“Working on what I love is the best and only way to allow financial abundance to come into my life”
