You’ve probably heard me use the phrase “Money Story” recently.
It’s one of the main focuses of my current Radio Show, STOP Money Anxiety Now!
It’s also the topic of one of my most popular keynote talks, “Re-engineering Destructive Money Stories”
What is a Money Story?
“Money Story” is the story that you learn about money growing up. It’s the story that you learn before you even had a command of language. And it’s the story that has helped create results over and over again.
What I’ve found in a lot of our clients and students is that your “Money Story” dictates your decision-making process when it comes to money.
Whether you’re asking for money in a sales conversation or making an offer in a presentation, or asking your boss for a raise, it’s this story that dictates whether or not you get it and how much.
Why would I want to change my Money Story?
If your money story has always worked for you, if working great for you now and will continue to work for you regardless of any changing circumstances in your life (i.e. job changes, marriage, getting a house, having kids, retirement, etc.) then great!
More often than not though, there will be a story you don’t want running for the rest of your life.
There will be moments in which you notice patterns, undesirable patterns, when it comes to money.
And changing the story, or even a part of the story, will have an immense effect on your life, not only as an entrepreneur but in many other ways as well.
