You know I realized I slowly created this unconscious belief: I can’t trust myself with money
…Because of this addictive impulse.
I’ve done enough “inner child” work to break down certain phrases and ask where is this voice/belief/saying coming from? And see okay there’s my mother or father voice, and to an extent some of it is true and plays out unconsciously. And some NLP has helped but it’s not the everything … I dunno
I just want to say don’t let this become your unconscious mantra.
Be careful try the phrase “for now” is helpful
“For now, it feels like I can’t trust myself with money”
“For now, it feels unmanageable “
“For now, it feels hopeless”
But it’s not forever, it doesn’t mean you can’t change.
And to look at this as a form self preservation, a form self love, a form self boundaries. To also remember where you are good with money …
To an extent there is some helpful advice with the new age and manifestation stuff: like paying yourself first, or looking into what our parents said about money when growing up, or I affirming “I trust myself with money”
Now applying it is another
But yeah in the lows… I see how that phrase “I can’t trust myself with money” slowly sunk into my esteem and definition of worth
