What’s in it for me? Overcome your financial inhibitions and get rich.

Do you sometimes wish you had more money? Of course you do! Who doesn’t? Even so, most of us harbor negative emotions about money and the people who make it. All this negativity is keeping you from realizing your economic potential. That’s a shame because, as you’ll see in these blinks, you have the power to change your situation.

All you need to do is get into the right mind-set and overcome the notions that are holding you back. Let’s get to work on making you a badass at making money!

In these blinks, you’ll learn

that wanting money doesn’t make you greedy;
why you have to get out of your comfort zone if you want to become rich; and
why Jim Carrey wrote himself a $10 million check.

Many of us have a conflicted relationship with money that keeps us from reaching our potential.

Money is a complicated subject. Some people love and obsess over it while others have come to despise the stuff. And while there are those who desire money, there are also those who feel ashamed over having so much of it.

Our culture has many negative beliefs about money, like it being the reason people turn into greedy and selfish monsters. But this is a myth.

Making money is what allows people to break free from financial constraints and use their time and energy for the things they care about. This is how philanthropists and activists are able to start charities and spread the word about important issues.

Often, our attitude to wealth will fluctuate between good and bad.

If you visit a friend who has an impressive widescreen TV, you might feel the desire to buy a similar TV. But then you might see a person you don’t like bragging about owning the exact same TV. In an instant, you feel disgusted with yourself for ever wanting such a pointless luxury item.

Another misguided belief about money is that if one person gets rich, it means someone else stays poor.

This idea stems from what’s known as a lack mind-set, which leads us to believe that there just aren’t enough dollars or resources to go around.

But think of it this way: If you eat a sandwich, do you think someone in another country is having their sandwich taken away?

No, the real scenario is that you eat your lunch to have the energy to work and create opportunities for others to do their job, thereby making it possible for them to afford their own sandwiches.

Sincero used to be plagued with negative ideas about money, and as a result, she wasted much of her youth with low-paying jobs such as catering, babysitting and knitting. But now she’s here to help you avoid wasting another minute and begin a healthy and lucrative relationship with money.

Money isn’t inherently evil; it’s simply an effective way of conducting business.

On its own, money isn’t good or bad – it’s a blank slate. It’s up to us to decide how money will be put to use – for good or evil.

Certainly, there weren’t any evil intentions when the concept of money was invented back in ancient times. People just wanted a better way of doing business than bartering, which had become a royal pain in the ass.

You can improve your situation by putting out positivity to encourage solutions to emerge.

Even though we’re taught to accept the things we see and hear as reality, the truth is far more complex.

Since our five senses are being processed by our brain, we’re creating an illusion – our own unique universe in which we constantly live. So it’s really important that our brains are processing things in a positive way and creating a prosperous universe.

Create specific financial goals to help increase your chances of monetary success.

Generally speaking, people don’t become rich unless they want to. So naturally, it’s important to tap into your desire for money if you want to start banking the Benjamins.

The key to unlocking that desire is to get specific about why you want money and how much of it you need. Then you can set solid goals for yourself.
