10 Bulletproof Ways on How to Change Your Money Mindset

Forget What They May Told You as a Child About Money

Ok, maybe not everything, but when it comes to our belief system, most of us have unfortunately often received an entirely wrong message.

Remember your parents telling you something like: “money doesn’t grow on trees? “

I do, and my parents may not have been wealthy, but they certainly weren’t stingy or negative people.

Well, it turns out I wasn’t the smartest kid; otherwise, I would have told them that money DOES grow on trees; after all, it is made out of paper.

But hey that’s not the point, I think people just use sayings like this to easily and don’t really understand the damage they can do with it.

→ So if you have kids, please don’t make the same mistakes. And please erase all the negative beliefs you had around you as a kid, no matter who this teacher was, your parents, or friends. These negatives beliefs towards money are worth nothing!

Forget About Your Past

It’s not only what others told you about money, but it’s also what belief system you created yourself.

If you have read my book about manifesting abundance, you know that at one point, I have already lost everything. If I were still living at that time, I would certainly not be where I am today.

For example, I had a business that failed, and I lost a lot of money. It took me a long time to get out of debts from that failed business. If that would now be my “new reality” that people fail when starting a business and losing a lot of money, I would have never started business again.

I would have never made six figures with my 9-5 or my own business. I would still be in debt and believe that’s the way it has to be.

Instead, I concentrated on people that actually had success with their business and made a lot of money.

So no matter where you come from or what happened to you in your past, your past does not define your current situation, nor your future.

We were all born rich.

That doesn’t mean we all come from wealthy families, but we all have it in us to make a lot of money.

So hit that delete button and forget about your past money problems. They are gone.

Change Your Money Story

You may find it easy to forget about a difficult situation you faced in the past, but how about your current struggles?

If you do have debts or find yourself in a problematic situation financially wise, it is even more important to change your feelings about this right now.

It is tough to attract wealth and abundance when you are in a state of lack.

The good news is, you can trick your mind into a state of abundance, regardless of the situation you are currently in.

By no means, I suggest you use your credit card to support a luxury lifestyle even when you have hungry kids at home.

But in case you have no one you need to take care of, why not?

My husband Tom and I used this strategy a few times when things got a bit tight. And it always worked out in our favor.

For example, we booked a luxury trip with business class flights, even though we didn’t have the spare cash for this vacation right then.

What happened then surprised me again every time. Out of nowhere, we suddenly got some extra cash, whatever this was through a salary rise, finding some extra money on a savings account, etc.

Once, I even found almost 1K in cash in a handbag I haven’t used for a while. Woohoo!

Crazy as it sounds, but just before we left for our wedding in Vegas and our honeymoon in Hawaii, my husband lost his job.

He didn’t tell me until we left for the airport. And at that time, he already had the offer for a new job. It turns out this new job he got was much higher paid.

This, very unusual, salary raise pretty much paid for our whole trip within the first months of working in his new job, and he was much happier in the new company too.

It only shows you how fast situations can change, so living in your past is never a good idea.

Fake It Until You Make It

When you feel confident with point 3, start talking to others about your situation as if.

You don’t have to lie to people; you can just say things like: “my money situation is great; I’m now working on my money mindset, and by the end of the week/month/year, I will make X amount.”

But sometimes it’s really ok to “fake it until you make it,” even if it means you are not 100% honest, but let me explain.

I loved to tell people that I randomly met, at a pub or on a plane, about the buy to let properties I own in England.

At the time, this was just a dream, my big goal. I didn’t have the financial resources to even look into such an investment.

But this little “faking it “didn’t feel wrong; it didn’t harm anyone, right?

I always believed that I need to save up a lot of money before I can make this dream come true. It turns out this wasn’t true. There is something called property crowdfunding that makes it possible to invest in properties with as little as a few dollars.

And only a few weeks after I started to tell people this little fib, a crowdfunding company called Property Partner approached me, and I began to invest in the UK property market straight up.

It worked! Today I own several properties in England as an investment, and I’m making good money with it.

Expert Tip: Your wealth starts in your head, see yourself as someone who has a lot of money and above all who deserves this abundance, and imagine how much good you can do with this money!

Create a Vision Board

As mentioned above, visualization is a very powerful tool when it comes to changing your mindset, and a vision board can definitely help you in the process.

Actually, my vision board is a topic I could talk about for hours. It is amazing what this powerful law of attraction tool did for my success and especially how it changed my money mindset.

I always added the amount of money I wanted to earn to my vision board, and when looking back, this number has changed dramatically over time.

In fact, I used the power of a vision board to grow my salary from what I “ordered” in my first vision board to three times as much in less than a few years.

If you are really serious about changing your money mindset, you should invest some time in leveraging the power of the law of attraction tools, such as a vision board. And I’m happy to teach you everything about it in my bestselling manifestation book.
