How can subconscious beliefs about money keep you broke?
I always look at two things. Let's say the goal is becoming rich. There's two parts of this. There's this limiting beliefs you have about yourself about being rich. And then there's the negative beliefs you have about the achievement. So both of those are in the mind. So think about limiting beliefs is like, well, I can't do this. I've never done this before. And I know the person has this belief if I hear the language. And you know what I'm talking about. This language like could, should, it'd be nice right one two yeah yeah that language has the expectation of failure built into it So that's the limitation beliefs. And then on the other side of the coin of the outcome is the negative beliefs. So what's the negative beliefs that keeps people broke?
The rich people are evil. There's no chance you're gonna wake up to try to be rich if you believe rich people are evil or rich people don't pay taxes or rich people took advantage of somebody or rich people are unhappy.
Because if you believe rich people are evil, you don't wanna become that belief of evil.
If I held a knife to your throat and said, step forward, You'll be like, well, I don't want to step forward because I'll hurt myself. It's like, yeah. So you'll never push for the goal if you think the outcome is negative. So until we work through those beliefs, I've seen that's what I call self-sabotage. The biggest work I do with entrepreneurs is understanding what are the unconscious beliefs they have that are literally self-sabotaging their progress to winning.
What are the beliefs that most people have around money that are holding them back then? Is it that money's bad or people with money are takers or what is it?
Yeah, I think it's anything negative. So, I mean, I know I had money beliefs around. I used to, I had this crazy belief that everybody had to go bankrupt. that everyone had to in order what? If you want to be successful. Really? It was this weird belief. I read Donald Trump's book, and I read a bunch of other people's books. And when you look at the history, they all talk about if you're really trying, you're taking risks, and at some point, you'll probably go bankrupt. So get used to it. so like well if i have that belief how hard am i going to push to try to be successful if i've got a young family and i'm trying not to create pain in their life yes so that one kept me playing small for a long time wow yeah the other belief is you know what will other people in my family say if i have money oh my gosh do you ever feel guilty about the money you have i i felt so guilty louis you've known me for a long time i didn't tell anybody i had money
What are the negative perceptions of wealth and how do they affect us?
I was quiet about it. I didn't allow myself to buy anything nice until I was 30. I made my first million at 27, multimillionaire at 28, and it wasn't until I was 36 that I allowed myself to buy a McLaren.
