In combat again with my poverty mindset

"Your world is a reflection of what you believe."




Just read this post: Poverty Mindset - read it!

It had so many useful points!

"How to Get Out of Poverty Mindset

"We all have a blueprint. It’s how we’re programmed, and it guides the things we do and how we live our lives. These blueprints come from our upbringing, likely from our parents. In other words, from the day you started earning your very first dollar, your future financial fate was predetermined. And unless you make some change to disassociate yourself from your preconditioning, your end result will be the same. And it will happen over and over again."


"How can you hate rich people and yet want to become one yourself?

Rich people admire other rich people. Poor people often resent rich people, so it’s hard to become something you resent."


"Your future success is predetermined by how your mind is programmed. If you subconsciously believe you’re destined to be poor, although you might say the words, “I want to be rich,” the actions you take will continue to lead to the same end result unless you fix the subconscious. In order to fix your relationship with money, you need to understand what that relationship is in the first place."

"3 Steps To Break the Poverty Mindset
1. Be aware of what’s holding you back.
2. Change your way of thinking regarding point 1 above.
3. Take action to achieve the desired result."





And THIS article about breaking the poverty cycle too: How to Stop Being Poor- Clever Girl Finance
"Many people are born into low-income families or families who lack generational wealth. If the habits of your ancestors continue in you, you could suffer from poverty too."

"When you are with people making smart financial decisions, subconsciously, you will too. When you inherently make wise financial decisions, you’ll break the poverty cycle without feeling overwhelmed—it will happen naturally."

Continuing to break the poverty mindset

Whuuuu.  I'm still processing the latest thought patterns.  We're going to an Open Home on Sunday. 52 Buchanan. Beautiful big house. Flashy, as Crystel puts it.  She wants to live in a flashy house.  I get it.  We've both been through some crazy trauma and deserve good things.  But inside me is also this niggling thought that makes me think I don't deserve to. That thought is holding me back.  I find it hard to see myself in a fancy, flashy, new house.  I prefer to see myself in a villa.  Part of that could be conditioning while growing up. Maybe it's to do with my preconceived notions and ideas about wealth.  Maybe I still have more work to do.  At present - my list of house options:  52 Buchanan Street Ōpōtiki * 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms * newer house * Not much section * Pizza oven * Big garage * Big white gates * Open plan living and kitchen 32 Potts Ave * 2 bedrooms, 2 toilets, 1 shower over bath * Co...

Sandy NanoWriMo 2014

Update: Quite a bit longer now...  #NaNoWriMo2014 She woke up just like any other day, with her alarm playing on her phone and her arm sprawled across her face. Her face covered from the overwhelming light that drifted through the non-existent curtains and onto her bedroom walls. She had been clever enough a year ago to begin mapping out the sun's cycle as it passed her little apartment and knew without even looking at her phone that she had overslept. Sandy Jenkins was no ordinary person. But she felt overly ordinary every single day. The problem was, she hadn't quite figured out her purpose in life, nor had she found the suitable (insert worm mating phrase here).  Unfortunately, Sandy had a couple afflictions. The first was that she was stuck in a job that she didn't particularly like. She had a range of talents yet none of these had anything to do with her current 'career pathway' or so her parents continued to call it. They said it was a stepping stone to a much...
