Money thinking: the enemy of thinking or the key to wealth? a dozen impossibilities before breakfast!" "Alice in Wonderland." L. Carroll There is a category of people who, dreaming of financial freedom, wait for a state of lightness, look for this state, buy books, trainings, and surround themselves with esoteric knowledge. They attract money through magical rituals, conspiracies, sentences, etc. This is neither bad nor good. The purpose of the article is not to condemn or criticize, but to show how you can look at money differently. I like the idea that money is a side effect of properly planned and predicted actions. Let's give an example. The child wants a toy. What is he doing? He is building a strategy on how to get this toy. Calls grandmothers. grandfathers, writes a letter to Santa Claus, throws tantrums in the store. It's all a strategy, it's a plan to get what you want. Fast forward to adulthood. First, the thought arises: “It wouldn’t be bad to get (become, have ...)”, Then: 1. Immersion in a dream to visualize the image of the desired future2. Setting goals using a formula, where: YOUR GOAL = Verb in the present or future tense (Make, sell, perform, do) + Noun - What exactly + Quantitative indicator - (in units, money, %) + Time, term - “in 3 month” +Why? For what? this goal. how to improve your life, condition, feelings.3. Drawing up a strategy and tactics for achieving the goal 4. Identifying blocks, fears, limiting beliefs and working through them5. Search for key competencies that will help you reach the goal + delegation 6. Following the chosen strategy, making adjustments at the moment as necessary. And that’s it... this is a secret formula by which the impossible becomes possible, and then I remembered a phrase from “Alice in Wonderland”: “The plan, needless to say, was excellent: simple and clear, it couldn’t have been better imagined. It had only one drawback.” : it was completely unknown how to carry it out" L. Carroll Why do some people believe so strongly in the myth of easy money? Why do they buy courses and trainings in which they are promised easy money in meditation, money candles, painting, etc. Why do they tie their success to external resources and not to their own resources? “I’ll buy a candle and if I think about money every day while lighting it, then money will come into my life” or “Thanks to money meditations, my life will be abundant.” The answer is simple - people are afraid that they will not cope with tasks, will not be able to justify whose then they hope they will receive refusals and it will hurt them and this will make them afraid in advance. It’s scary to take responsibility for your life, for your income, for your results, and that’s why they transfer it to the external environment, from which they expect help and support. If this works, then you can continue to burn candles, draw runes, etc. But if buying 100/500 courses did not help, money did not come into life in the promised abundance and ease, this is a reason to think about what is wrong in this beautiful story. To get out of the trap of the myth of easy money and start making money, you need to take responsibility for your life and your income. In psychology there is the concept of “Ukhtomsky’s dominant,” which is that a person’s life moves towards the strongest thought. This means that the thoughts and beliefs that occupy a central place in our lives have a great influence on our lives and our achievements. If you think that you cannot achieve a goal, then you are unlikely to be able to achieve it. But if you believe in your success, form the right thoughts, set goals, set tasks and go towards your goal, even if you encounter difficulties, then the goal will be achieved. Here, of course, we are talking about adequate goals, not from the category of “Become the mistress of the sea.” Although, now there are such technologies.. But let’s get back to money. I think it’s important now to emphasize that I don’t know what.
