Wealth Creation Blog

We’ve been talking a lot about attitude and emotion and how you “should” feel about all manner of things from the local and world economy to the investment climate to the fitness of the world for wealth creation. We discussed not letting others dictate how you “should” feel about all of this, and instead being in control of your financial emotions. Now, let’s refine that a bit.

Who Cues Your Financial Emotion?

Does watching the news or the daily market report leave you feeling despondent? Do you shake your head through the entire newscast and leave your set feeling worse than when you’d arrived? Do you generally feel good about your financial position or your daily living and feel that with some concerted effort to build wealth you could be quite comfortable….but then lose that feeling as soon as you read the next internet or media report on the state of the country or world?

If this sounds familiar, you are taking too many cues from the outside world and not trusting your own instincts enough. And that will become, if it hasn’t already, a big problem for you as you continue to work toward personal wealth.

When you take your financial/emotional cues from others, you do a couple of things:

• You undercut your own confidence and ability by essentially telling yourself your own instincts and emotions are not trustworthy.
• You back-step and undo everything in wealth creation that you have already accomplished.
• You start living with a scarcity mindset instead of an abundance mentality.
• You attract more negativity and scarcity to you, instead of abundance and positive energy.

All of this makes it very hard to build wealth and achieve the end goal of financial freedom. The case is certainly not hopeless, though. All you have to do is rebuild trust in your own emotions and take your cues from you, not from the outside world.

People actually have a very good sense of the potential of things, we just suppress it. Take life head-on, trust your feelings, and continue to remain positive about any endeavor, and you will surely be an unstoppable force in creating personal wealth.
