We have been programmed to think that money is a scarce commodity. We have been programmed to believe it's only for a small percentage of people in the world. And these programs are our belief systems, which directly effect how we feel, the actions we take and thus reflecting in our bank accounts and how we live.
We adopt beliefs about money from our families, socio-cultural environment, and significant life events. We can think of them like scripts of a play that are handed to us. Often we don’t even know who the author is of our scripts. But what if we can rewrite our own money story?
Vishal George– Chief Behavioural Scientist at Behavioural by Design - New Zealand Checked in to the cafe to have conversation around " Rewiring our relationship with Money"
Today, we're diving into a topic that affects each and every one of us: our relationship with money. It's not just about numbers and finances; it's about our beliefs, emotions, and connection to abundance. Think of it as a friendship or a partnership, because just like with your best pal, your partner, or your parents, you have a relationship with your money. Taking care of this relationship is important. While you may not take your cash out on a coffee date, it's your money that funds those outings. So, it's crucial to treat it well and nurture it.
In this episode, we won't be discussing investment strategies. Instead, Vishal will be sharing valuable insights into how our behaviors play a vital role when it comes to our relationship with money. He'll delve into the patterns of spending, offering practical tips on reframing our mindset to develop healthier spending habits. Additionally, he'll explore the concept of prioritizing spending and shed light on the contrasting elements of fees versus fines, unveiling their significance in our relationship with money.
