 103 Disempowering Beliefs About Money and Success

If you accept a limiting belief, then it will become a truth for you.   
Louise Hay

Money is a tool. It is used to purchase the things we need to survive.

It can also be a service. We can spend money to help others be able to have
the things they need to survive.

When we go beyond this basic need, however, our views of money begin to
diverge.

Some see money as the root of happiness. Others see it as the root of evil.

What you believe about money as a core value will affect how you perceive
its accumulation.

If you were taught that money is good, then you will pursue it.

If you were taught that money is bad, then you may avoid the pursuit of it.

Your personal experiences and observations influence these beliefs as well. If

you see money being used to help people, then you’ll view it more as a tool
or service.

If not, then you’ll look at money as one of the root causes of the problems we
all encounter each day.

Now here’s the good news: you can change your limiting beliefs about
money and success.

By using a very effective technique you may not know about, or may have
even never heard about, you can begin to change your perspectives about
what money and success mean to you.

What Are Some of the Limiting Beliefs About Money

You May Have?

I’ve talked about how some people see money as being evil or bad.

Many of us grew up in spiritual or religious households as children.

Maybe you’ve heard Bible verses like 1 Timothy 6:10, which says, “For the love
of money is the root of all kinds of evil.”

It is not just Christianity that focuses on money in such a light. “…And present
in souls is stinginess. If you do good and fear Allah – then indeed Allah is ever,
with what you do, acquainted,” can be found in Surat an Nisa, 128.

In Hinduism, dharma (or duty) encourages all to work hard to earn money to
support themselves and their family.

Attempting to earn more than what is necessary is reflective of greed, which

has the potential to take one away from their spiritual life.

Or you can take a look at Buddhism, which teaches that wealth is temporary
and does not provide a path to happiness.

These beliefs, rooted in our spirituality, set a foundation for how we think and
feel about money, success, and wealth.

Then we reinforce this core belief with certain observations, which are either
taught to us or we experience them in some way ourselves.

Do you have any of these disempowering beliefs about money in your life
right now?

If you focus on money, then you are shallow.

Money does not buy happiness.
You must work hard to become wealthy.
It is selfishness that makes one want more money.
It takes money to make money.
People who are wealthy have no morals.

Each of these beliefs, if they are present, are holding you back from your true
potential.

They do this because they generate conflict and fear within you.

To remove this conflict and fear, you must first remove the limiting beliefs
which create it.

How to Get Rid of Limiting Beliefs About Money

Once you have identified core beliefs, experiences, and teachings that
influence your perspective about money, you must do something about them
to change.

Continuing with the same beliefs will always hold you back, no matter how
hard you try to fight it.

You will eventually succumb to numbness, shame, and guilt for violating the
core principles of who you are.

To get rid of these limiting beliefs, you must begin to transform your brain.
This technique will help you do just that.

It is called the Emotional Freedom Techniques, or EFT.

This technique performs tapping points on specific energy centers of the

body in a way that is similar to acupuncture.

Instead of needles, however, you place tapping pressure on each key energy
point.

This disrupts the stress response the body attempts to generate when you
are worried about something.

By disrupting the stress response, you are able to begin changing your
approach to money (or anything else).

You look at things in a proactive way instead of a reactive way.

Daniel Kahneman, who serves as the Professor of Psychology and Public

Affairs Emeritus at Princeton University, has spent a lifetime studying how
people make decisions and judgments.

He discovered that most people make decisions to avoid loss instead of

trying to benefit from an equivalent gain.

This need to avoid loss then transitions into other parts of life.

The 2016 Presidential election in the United States is a clear example of this.

One of the top reasons why people voted for either Donald Trump or Hillary
Clinton is that they didn’t want the other candidate to get into office.

They weren’t voting for a candidate they wanted. They were voting against
the candidate they didn’t want.

As this bias continues to grow, it can affect every element of life.

High levels of stress may even contribute to poor sleeping habits, weight
gain, low creativity levels, and a weakened immune system.

It is a cycle that will continue to push forward unless you are willing to stop it.

That is what EFT tapping is able to do. It stops the cycle of bias which makes
you think you must stop loss instead of pursuing gains.

If you looked back on the events of your life, is there one instance where you
could say, “If that incident did not occur, I would be in a very different financial
situation right now?’

That is a traumatic event. The sense of loss runs deeply through the soul. You
are filled with anger, sadness, and shame because of what happened.

Tapping stops the emotional response. It stops programmed beliefs. It allows

you to focus on the situation at-hand with a logical mind.

It only takes one EFT tapping session to begin producing results.

Just try it to see if you experience a difference in your perspectives.

The Basics of EFT Tapping for Money and Success

For EFT tapping to be successful, you must find the correct meridian points
on the body.

 103 Disempowering Beliefs About Money and Success

These are the areas where your energies come together in a confluence.

During a typical treatment session, you will focus on several key areas, such
as the top of your head, your eyebrows, under the eyes, and under the nose.

There are spots along your collarbone, chin, and under the arm as well.

You can use the tapping technique for many different reasons.

If your focus is on creating a perspective change about money and success,

then here are the key tapping points you’ll want to focus on when trying this
technique.

Side of the Eye:  This tapping spot calms negative energies associated with
change.

Under the Eye: This meridian eases the worries associated with financial
concerns.

Under the Nose: This area increases your sense of fulfillment and desire to
improve.

Under the Mouth: This meridian focuses on the stamina associated with your
persistence.

Eyebrow: Tap this area when you feel urgency and haste to create change.

How you begin to tap will influence the outcomes you’re able to achieve with
this technique.

Your goal should be to tap each area firmly, but not so hard that you would
hurt yourself in some way.

Use your fingertips for tapping instead of your finger pads.

The one exception to this is if you have long fingernails.

Then use your finger pads to avoid an unintentional injury from the nail.

You can choose to use one hand or both hands for tapping.

If you use both hands, it may be helpful to alternate the tapping so that your
hands are complementary to each other instead of tapping simultaneously.

Be sure to remove your glasses before tapping. If you wear a watch or

jewelry, you will want to remove these as well.

Try practicing on one spot now. Take your fingertip, choose one of the areas
listed above, then begin to tap. Continue tapping for about 30 seconds.

What happened?

Many people who try EFT tapping for the first time begin to count the number
of times they tap themselves in a single location, much like they would for
reps while working out.

You might begin to think of a to-do list that needs to get finished today. You
might remember a promise you made to someone that needs to be fulfilled.

These are all defensive mechanisms. It is the body and brain’s last resort to
stop the changes you’re wanting to experience in your life.

You can defeat this issue as well.

Tuning into Your Problem with Money and Success

Now that you know how to perform tapping and the locations to tap, you are
ready to know how to tune into the problem you have with money.

Using a standard tapping technique affirmation phrase, you would say

something like this as you begin to tap.

“Even though I have this fear of wealth and success, I deeply and completely
accept myself.”

You can also throw in a variation if self-doubt or self-criticism are present in

your life right now.

“Even though I have this fear of wealth and success, I deeply and completely
love myself.”

What makes EFT tapping such a great technique to learn is that it can be
used to address a wide range of issues you may be facing in your life right
now.

There is no limit to the types of issues, concerns, or fears that can be

addressed and confronted with this technique.

 103 Disempowering Beliefs About Money and Success

All you need to do is replace “wealth and success” with the fear, pain, or
concerns you are experiencing right now.

People have successfully used EFT tapping to treat headaches, cravings,

resentment, and even nightmares.

As you get into a routine of tapping, you may find that saying the same
affirmation repetitively, day after day, gets old and stale.

If you need a change, these phrase variations can also support your efforts to
clear limiting beliefs about money.

“I accept myself even though I have this limiting belief about money and
success.”

“I love and accept myself even though I have this fear about earning more
money.”

“Even though I have this fear about money and wealth, I deeply and
profoundly accept myself.”

It is important to use the exact limiting belief you identify in your life with
these affirmation statements.

This will draw out the negative energies associated with them, which allows
you to tap them away.

You can say these affirmations in your mind if you wish, but this technique is
more effective if you say them verbally.

Then return to the different tapping points to clear out the negative energies
of other limiting beliefs you may have.

What Should I Do After I Get Rid of the Negative

Energy?
Once you feel like the negative associations with certain thoughts about
money are no longer influencing your thinking and decision-making skills, it is
time to instill positive energy into your system.

Write down the negative beliefs you isolated when thinking about money,
wealth and success.

Read these beliefs verbally. Then rate them on a scale of 10. Does the belief
still seem true?

Be honest with yourself. If you score a 6-10 on the scale, then return to the
tapping technique.

It is important to remember that you have spent a lifetime dealing with these
limiting beliefs. Time is necessary to restore balance to your spirit.

Continue repeating and grading the limiting thoughts until you can honestly
rate it at 4 or less.

Once this rating is achieved, write down the positive belief you’d like to instill
into yourself.

Now return to the tapping process. Instead of using the affirmations, use a
phrase like this.

“Success is always available to me because I am not a failure.”

Scientific Research into the Benefits of EFT Tapping

Whenever a claim is made that seems too good to be true, it is a good idea to
look into the science of what is being talked about.

A quick search of EFT tapping research will lead to over 100 different results
about the potential benefits of this process.

Finding published results in journals or clinical research studies is more of a

challenge.

Here are the current findings about EFT tapping that have been published
and peer reviewed.

 103 Disempowering Beliefs About Money and Success

A survey of 448 EFT practitioners, published in The Permanente Journal,

found that 63% of people could remediate complex PTSD symptoms in 10 or
fewer EFT tapping sessions.

An analysis of 14 studies, involving over 650 participants, found through

meta-analysis that on a scale of 0.2 to 0.8, indicating the range of effect that a
treatment could provide, EFT tapping measured at 1.23.

A review of more than 60 research articles by Patrice Rancour, MS, RN,

PMHCNS-BC discovered that EFT tapping offers an efficacy rate of 98% when
the procedure is used to treat some form of psychological distress or physical
condition. It is even as effective when treating athletic or academic
performance issues. This research was published in The Journal of Holistic
Nursing.

In 2008, Dr. Peta Stapleton and Terri Sheldon used EFT tapping to study
weight loss versus a waitlist regarding food cravings. 96 adults, diagnosed as
being obese, attended a 4-week program run by an EFT practitioner. The
impact of the program was superior to CBT in the reduction of food cravings
and anxiety. 89 of the 96 adults were able to continue experiencing results
over 1 year.

It is clear that EFT tapping creates successful outcomes. Now it is up to you

to experience your own outcome with this technique.
