I'd go through your list, take all the limiting beliefs out (you have some positive beliefs in there around money, too) and challenge each of these limiting beliefs.

Like your last one, that people won't like you if you're rich. Well, there will always be people who will resent you - it might be because you have money, it might be because you have a good job, it might be because you're talented, it might be because you're wearing red shoes today.

The truth is, even though there are probably some people who don't like them, rich people have friends. Often their friends are other rich people. Having friends and being liked isn't about how much money you have, it's about who you are.

So now you've come up with exceptions to this particular belief. Now you know it's not universally true.

Ask yourself why this should come up as a true belief for you if it doesn't apply to other people? There really is no reason.

I think once you've challenged each of these beliefs, you can then work on rewording them into positive beliefs and focus on incorporating these new beliefs as habitual ways of thinking.
