How many times did you hear in your childhood that "money does not grow on trees"? This is a phrase used in many cultures to refer to the difficulty of getting money.
But is it really difficult to get money? Definitely not. As I mentioned in my courses: that you do not know how to get money, it does not mean that it is difficult to get it.
The money is there, waiting for someone to come for it.
And if it's not you, someone else will. It is not difficult to get it, you just don't know how to attract it into your life.
Another deep belief consists in affirming that while one becomes a millionaire, another becomes impoverished, that is, to be a millionaire, one must impoverish another.
This wrong way of looking at life makes you afraid of getting wealth, because you suppose that you are taking away the money that corresponds to him.
Both beliefs are only confusing your mind, making it difficult for you to get wealth.
They are both beliefs and you must be aware of all the beliefs regarding money that you have. If you have limiting beliefs about money, you are going to have a lot of trouble getting it.
And those beliefs are also going to be installed in your descendants, making it difficult for them to achieve their financial freedom.
Imagine if you install the empowering belief that money does grow in trees, and in all parts of the world ... Nothing will stop you! That you install in your mind that anywhere there are possibilities to create wealth, and that anywhere in the world you can earn money.
If you install that empowering belief, you will not have a brake, because you will find opportunities where others find problems. You will go through life looking for opportunities and solving the problems of the world.
That's what it's all about: installing the beliefs that will help you be a better person and achieve your financial freedom.
If you grow up thinking that there are shortages, you will only limit your potential, if you grow up thinking that there are thousands of opportunities to build wealth, you will find them quickly.
There are two ways of looking at life: with abundance and with lack. Unfortunately, we have been educated from lack. For example, they tell you that you do not know mathematics, that is, you have a lack of that knowledge, therefore you must focus on getting them.
We focus on lack rather than abundance.
If you realized that there are thousands of options for learning math and you focused on the opportunities, nothing would stop you. But most focus on lack.
That is, you focus on what you don't have, rather than what you do have.
What if you focused on abundance? You would learn that you already have certain knowledge and that from them, you can develop your skills.
You should not focus on the scarcity, you have to focus on the abundant, so that you do not have a brake and look for more possibilities.
You must realize that everywhere there are possibilities and everywhere there are opportunities to build wealth.
Instead of thinking of lack, you should think of abundance.
You have to discover that the world offers you abundance, and you have to manage that abundance, to generate more.
Anywhere there are opportunities, just discover them.
But ... how do you build a belief? It is very simple, you only need an idea and three reasons.
For you to believe that money does not grow on trees (you know, it means that it is difficult to get it), you had to have an idea reinforced with three arguments.
Example: One of your basic education teachers arrived one sad day, because his daughter was ill and he did not have money to buy medicine. He mentioned to them that you - the students - had to work very hard, because money was not given in trees.
The idea is that it is difficult to get money, and the three probable reasons that he exposed to you:
1. You will never earn enough to cover the basic needs of your family
2. Even if you prepare academically, you will always have financial problems
3. Money is elusive, it hides from everyone
Before continuing, you should not blame the teacher, he received similar mental programming from his teachers, family and friends. He is repeating what he learned, without reflecting on whether it is useful or not.
This limiting belief was built this way, but the good news is that you can build an empowering belief in the same way, to reprogram your brain.
It starts with a clear idea, for example: "I can build whatever I want, I just have to learn how to do it."
Now build your three arguments to strengthen that idea:
1. Everything that exists was built by one person, therefore, anyone can do it.
2. I have to investigate how to build what I want.
3. If I don't know how to do it, someone else may know, therefore, I must find the right person and ask them how to do it.
Whenever you want to install a belief, you must take that formula into account: an idea and three reasons.
As you can see, it is not about repeating meaningless phrases or watching motivational videos, but installing the right thoughts.
We have incredible brain activity, so we must use it to our advantage.
What beliefs are you going to install from now on?
