Money Mindset Makeover: Re-writing Limiting Money Scripts

Have you ever made an impulsive big-ticket purchase that you later regretted?

Or, maybe you have found yourself making choices with your money that seem out of alignment with your overall life or financial goals?

If so, then you’re likely familiar with the effects of your money script.

So, what is a money script?

Well, a money script is often unconscious beliefs about money, rooted in early childhood experiences and guided by family or societal expectations, that influence the way we think about and handle money.

In many ways, the “script” is subconscious conditioning that tells us how to respond to money choices as we’re presented with one spending or savings decision to the next.

Having awareness and greater insights into what’s happening mechanically, under the surface, is the first step to setting sustainable goals and money management strategies that will endure no matter what curveballs life throws at you.
