Rewiring Your Money Mindset: Stop Chasing Wealth & Start Attracting It

Money

It’s loaded. It carries weight.

Power. Desire. Fear.

We all have a money story—and whether we realize it or not, that story dictates our financial reality. Maybe you learned early on that money was scarce, that it had to be earned through hardship, sacrifice, or suffering. Maybe you grew up in a home where wealth was resented, feared, or demonized—where “rich people” were greedy or immoral. Maybe you watched your parents struggle, make ends meet, survive paycheck to paycheck, and now you feel guilty for wanting more.

Or maybe money has always felt just out of reach. You work hard, you chase opportunities, you manifest like hell, but no matter what—you seem to hit the same financial ceiling over and over again. Why? Because your subconscious mind has a set point, and until you shift it, no amount of budgeting, hustling, or “thinking positive” will override the programming running the show.

The subconscious is like a thermostat—it keeps you at the temperature you’ve been conditioned to believe is safe. If you try to exceed that limit, it kicks in to regulate you back to the familiar. This is why some people can make money but struggle to keep it. This is why sudden windfalls disappear, why people win the lottery and go bankrupt, why you might land a high-paying client but then feel “off” about charging what you’re worth. If abundance isn’t familiar, it won’t feel safe—and your nervous system will reject it.

So how do we change this? We start by rewriting the story.

Step 1: Get Honest About Your Money Narrative

What did you learn about money growing up? What phrases did you hear? Money doesn’t grow on trees. Rich people are corrupt. You have to work hard to get ahead. There’s never enough. These messages didn’t just shape your thoughts—they shaped your identity. If you identify as someone who struggles, who “just gets by,” who can’t seem to hold onto wealth, then that is the reality you will unconsciously create.

So ask yourself: What is my core money story?

• I have to struggle for success.

• I feel guilty for wanting more.

• I don’t deserve wealth unless I’ve “earned” it through sacrifice.

• If I have more, someone else has less.

• Money is unpredictable, fleeting, unstable.

Write down your beliefs. See them. Question them. Rewire them.

Step 2: Understand Your Blocks Around Receiving

A lot of people think their money issues come from not making enough. But the real block? Receiving. Holding. Allowing. If you struggle to receive compliments, support, or help, it’s likely you also struggle to receive abundance.

So ask yourself: Do I actually feel safe having money?

If money feels unsafe, your subconscious will reject it. Maybe deep down, you fear that having more will change your relationships. Maybe you worry that success will make you a target for resentment. Maybe you associate wealth with stress, responsibility, or expectation. Maybe you believe that if you have more, you’ll have to constantly prove you’re worthy of it.

Until you neutralize these fears, your subconscious will make sure you never have “too much.”

Step 3: Break Free from the Scarcity Cycle

Scarcity isn’t just about numbers in your bank account—it’s a state of mind. It’s the feeling of “not enough”—not enough time, love, success, attention, or opportunities. Scarcity creates urgency, desperation, and anxiety, which repels abundance. You cannot manifest wealth while simultaneously panicking over its absence.

So how do you shift out of scarcity? You embody abundance before it physically arrives.

• Instead of “I can’t afford this,” try “How can I create the resources for this?”

• Instead of “I never have enough,” try “I am expanding my capacity to receive.”

• Instead of “I’m always in debt,” try “I am learning to manage and multiply my wealth.”

Language matters. Your subconscious takes everything you say as truth—so choose your words wisely.

Step 4: Align with the Version of You Who Already Has What You Want

Here’s the thing: Rich people don’t think about money the way struggling people do. Confident people don’t second-guess their worth. If you want to shift your financial reality, you need to stop seeing yourself as someone who is “trying” to manifest money and start seeing yourself as someone who already has it.

Ask yourself:

• How does the wealthiest version of me think, act, and make decisions?

• How does the most financially free version of me spend their time?

• How does the most successful, abundant, confident version of me feel about money?

Then, start living as that person now—before the money shows up. Because when you shift your self-concept, the external world has no choice but to follow.

Final Thoughts

Money isn’t just about numbers—it’s about identity. It’s about energy. It’s about safety, worthiness, and the stories you’ve absorbed about who you are and what you deserve. And the best part? You have the power to rewrite it all.

The work isn’t in chasing money. The work is in becoming the version of you who naturally attracts and holds it.

So start small. Reframe the thoughts. Adjust the thermostat. Make wealth feel safe, natural, and inevitable. And then watch what happens.
