Our beliefs about money shape how we make financial decisions and even view our self-worth. Many of us hold onto negative “money scripts” and while they may feel true, they keep us from reaching our full financial potential.
By transforming these negative beliefs into empowering mindsets, we open the door to a more positive and intentional relationship with money.
This post lists 14 common money scripts and offers reframed, empowering alternatives. Think about which ones you might take on, or you may even start to pick up common scripts from people around you. Shifting the scripts can help you build confidence, create a healthier financial outlook, and make money a tool that works for you, not against you. It may feel awkward the first few times you try it, but even trying these can expand your view of what is possible.
