Mind Over Money: Elevate Your Money Mindset with Affirmations

Imagine waking up every morning feeling confident about your finances, knowing that abundance is within reach and prosperity is your birthright. Envision a life where money flows effortlessly into your life, bringing joy and fulfillment along the way.

Sounds pretty great, right?

At times, we all need a little boost to stay positive and focused on our financial goals.

And, yes, I'm including myself in that too.

A few years ago, I found myself constantly in scarcity mode when it came to money.

If you're a fellow entrepreneur, you know that there can be a TON of uncertainty around where your next sale will come from. And for us, sales = paychecks = food on the table, mortgage payments and heating bills. There is not an employer that will be paying us a steady check every other week, no matter what. (But trust me, I love it anyway and wouldn't change a thing!)

The one thing I did need to change?

My mindset.

Instead of constantly thinking "will I have enough to pay myself this month?" or "what if that client doesn't decide to move forward?" I had to replace those thoughts of lack with ones of abundance. One of my favorite ways to do this is with money affirmations.

What Are Affirmations and How Do They Work?

Affirmations are positive statements that you repeat to yourself regularly to challenge and overcome self-sabotaging and negative thoughts. When it comes to money, affirmations can help you reshape your beliefs about wealth, abundance, and your ability to attract financial success. By consistently affirming positive beliefs, you can reprogram your subconscious mind and align your thoughts with your financial goals.

Choosing the Right Money Affirmations

Selecting the right money affirmations is important for effectively shifting your money mindset. This isn't about gaslighting yourself into believing things that are too much of a stretch for you. Focus on affirmations that resonate with you personally and address any limiting beliefs you may have about money. Here are some examples to get you started:

I am worthy of financial abundance and prosperity.
Money flows to me easily and effortlessly.
I am grateful for the wealth that surrounds me.
I attract opportunities for financial growth and success.
I am in control of my finances and make wise financial decisions.

Incorporating Affirmations into Your Daily Routine

To reap the benefits of money affirmations, consistency is key. Here are some tips for incorporating affirmations into your daily routine:

Morning Ritual: Start your day by reciting or writing out your chosen money affirmations. This sets a positive tone for the day ahead and helps you focus on your financial goals.
Affirmation Cards: Create physical or digital affirmation cards with your favorite money affirmations. Carry them with you or place them where you can see them throughout the day. I have a set of printable cards for sale here.
Visualization: Pair your affirmations with visualization exercises to enhance their effectiveness. Imagine yourself achieving your financial goals and embodying the beliefs expressed in your affirmations.
Evening Routine: One of my favorite ways to incorporate affirmations into my life is to repeat them to myself as I’m falling asleep each night. Not only does it help calm my mind so I can actually sleep, I’m working on reprogramming my subconscious at the same time!

Tracking Your Progress with YNAB

As you integrate money affirmations into your daily routine, use a tool like You Need A Budget (YNAB) to track your progress and stay accountable to your financial goals. (You know YNAB is my favorite budgeting tool, right??) YNAB can help you allocate your income, manage expenses, and monitor your financial growth, providing a holistic approach to financial wellness.

Final Thoughts

Harnessing the power of affirmations and combining them with practical financial tools like YNAB can transform your money mindset and help you cultivate a positive relationship with your finances. By changing my own mindset around money, I was able to attract more abundance into my life.

Allowing yourself to believe in the next step. And then the next. And next. Until you have made significant progress towards your goals.

What's the next step that you can believe is possible right now? Making an extra $10 debt payment? Holding off on buying that shirt you don't really need? Simply enjoying a moment with your first sip of coffee in the morning?

The next step doesn't have to be huge or monumental. It just needs to move you forward.
