What Are False Finacial Beliefs

This month will be a special set of financial planning guide lessons. We will discuss how our false beliefs towards money will drag (even stop) our journey to financial freedom.

As we grew older we were all exposed to different kinds of influences. Influences from our families, friends, colleagues and specially the kind of media we patronize. Our core values and personal beliefs are define by this influences. These influences all aspects of our life, specially how use our money.

You see our brain is like a computer that stores all the experiences in our life. Slowly it creates a blue print of who we are based on all those experiences and influence. Slowly our brain is creating a computer program that we will be the basis of who we become.   

Again like a computer program, our brain also has a sort of "software". So it acts, thinks, talks, eats, cries, works, earns, even smells based on our personal "software". This personal is so hard wired into our being that we think it's who we are. There are even people that think their life is destined to be that way.

Since this a "software", it involves all aspects in our life specially how we handle money. It defines how we spend, invest, save and earn money. The good thing with this since it is a "software", it is something we can reformat and install and upgraded version. Specifically it is an acquired habit that we have develop through our past and present experiences.

On our next coming financial planning guide, I will help you to personally identify this false beliefs within yourself that ultimately robs you of achieving true financial freedom.

Setting A Financial Goal

Based on our previous discussion (please click here for those who have not read it), we all belong to a financial stage and all the steps that we should be doing should take into consideration where we currently belong.
Again, the goal is financial freedom so I guess we all agree that, that is all our "end-state".

Now let's start with setting a Financial Goal.

Financial Life Stages

I have observed that our life is all about stages, and even in our finances we also have different stages.

A lot of financial planning guide books define it in many ways, but I like to make things simple. For me there are only four (4) stages in a person's financial life:

My Emotional Inspiration To Change My Financial Life

Hi everyone, welcome to my financial improvement blog.

To be honest with you, this is actually my personal “Financial blue print”. My life’s financial journey and all the many lessons, the tears, and especially the joy that I have experience in my financial life is written in this site.

A background on how my financial life was.

When I was young, my family has faced many financial rollercoaster. As a child, I would often hear my mother telling me “let’s go to your grandpa’s house, we will ask financial help from him for your school”. As a child I never really understand this, not until I reached my teens that I was fully acquainted with the many needs for money. Although within that period (my childhood years to my teens), my father was able to set-up a furniture export business that brings sudden wealth and thus changed our lives. We are able to fix our house, had foams as bed, had two automobiles, we dined in restaurants, had the toys I wanted, and etc. In short, we were living the life of the wealthy.
