" Money can be fickle, having a lasting relationship with a few and a brief fling with others, while just flirting with the rest of us."
Until I began my journey to financial recovery, I was very passive about money. I thought it would show up, or not. I believed I had little to do with money. And in fact, I did as little with money as I could. I earned it and I spent it. Frankly, I avoided having a relationship with money.
Avoiding money, living in money fog, kept me stressed about money and afraid about my future. I learned that to improve my relationship with money, I had to spend time with it. I had to make time for it. I got a money coach and invested time, energy, and money to learn how to work with money. I took classes and I read books. I did the inner work to find the unconscious beliefs I had about money that did not serve me and developed a new way of being with money. I learned to save and invest.
I found that money was not fickle. I was the fickle one. I avoided it, then flirted with it. I had a fling with it. Now I have a lasting, positive relationship with money
On the continuum from flirting to a lasting relationship, where are you and money?
