MONEY MIND$ET:Uncovering and Eliminating the Blocks to

Making and Keeping More Money

WHAT money REALLY is (this may surprise you)

The DIFFERENCE between how MEN and WOMEN think about money

(this is why so many couples argue about money—even break up over it)

WHY you are having problems with money (hint: it doesn’t have to do with

your job, the economy, or anyone else)

What YOUR specific blocks are around money (knowing these will begin

the process of changing your finances forever)

The FIRST THING you MUST work on to CHANGE your relationship

with and experience around money (if you don’t work on this, you will

CONTINUE to have money struggles)

• 2006 launched my personal & professional development business, Life by

Design, LLC, full-time

• First 3 years, struggled with money, making “just enough to pay the bills” with

not much left over

• My yearly sales were stuck at $24-25k those 3 years

Once I started working with my own money mindset (techniques, coaches)

things started turning around

• In 6 months, made as much as I used to in a year (even during the recession)

• Have increased my yearly earnings every year since then

• 1st quarter 2013 earned as much as I used to in 12 months

• Learned to become a more purposeful and powerful manifestor, attracting—

sometimes instantly—needs or wants I have (and continue to work on my

money beliefs and barriers on a regular basis)

• Now teaching others to do the same, getting as good or better results than me

WHO AM I, WHY LISTEN TO ME?

What Money REALLY Is (this may surprise you)

$ A medium of exchange that facilitates trade (dict.)

$ymbol

$ ≠ Wealth – cannot make self richer by printing more money

$ A representation of value/worth

$ A way to make “perceived value” tangible & interchangeable

A means to get

what you want

Idea of “security”

Money is Energy – we trade our “life energy”

for this representation of its worth

Money is a representation of value/worth

Self Worth Net Worth

Low self worth =

low income/

low bank account

OR Low self worth =

overcompensation w/

money, NEED for status

boost with lots of $$

The DIFFERENCE between how MEN and WOMEN

think about money(this is why so many couples argue about money--even break up over it)

According to a combined survey done by Ask Men and Cosmopolitan:

45% of men have a plan for retirement and either are currently saving or will start

saving for retirement soon."

Men – traditional/cultural role of earner/provider bring home the bacon

taught about money/encouraged to learn about it; acceptable to discuss

Women – traditional/cultural role of caregiver, facilitator fry it up in a pan

not taught about money/encouraged to learn about it; discouraged

from discussing

Only 21% of women have any plan, and 45% of women surveyed said they

“have not even thought about retirement."

May want to take out stats and bullet point the elements of each

of differences

Money Relationship Assessment Score

0-10 You have a very healthy relationship with money. You likely have no or

few issues with money. Congratulations. Now make sure to protect it

so it can always stay that way.

11-20 You’re not doing too bad with your money relationship. There may be

occasional “spats,” but they usually don’t last long and you are adept

at working them out. Or there may be just a few areas that are more

troublesome to you. There is room for growth for a more satisfying

relationship.

21-30 Money is not your “honey.” Your relationship with money is in the dumps

or like a roller coaster with highs and lows. It feels unpredictable to you

or a constant focus and sense of worry/fear. It’s likely been a pattern with

you for some time. It’s time to establish a healthy relationship.

the economy, or anyone else)
