Don't let past money experiences define you
When it comes to manifesting money, one of the biggest obstacles people face is allowing their past to define their financial reality. Your subconscious mind plays a significant role in shaping your beliefs and behaviours around money. But, if you let your past experiences of financial struggles, scarcity or other limiting beliefs define who you are, it can block your ability to manifest more money.
How your past creates limiting beliefs about money
The subconscious mind is powerful. It stores your memories, emotions and beliefs – many of which were formed in childhood. If you grew up in an environment where money was scarce or you were taught negative ideas about having money, these ideas can form limiting beliefs that shape your entire financial reality.
These limiting beliefs, stored deep in your subconscious, act as mental blocks. Even though you may consciously want to manifest more money, your subconscious might still be operating in the belief that money is hard to come by or that you don’t deserve financial success.
These beliefs are holding you back from attracting money. And, the first step to freeing yourself is recognising that these thoughts are remnants of your past and not reflective of your true potential.
Repeated past experiences program the subconscious mind
Your subconscious mind works on repetition and familiarity. If you experienced financial struggle frequently in your past, your subconscious might start to expect and even recreate those circumstances because it sees them as “normal”.
For example, if you’ve constantly experienced paycheck-to-paycheck living or financial instability, your subconscious may recreate similar financial situations because it has become the comfort zone. This is one reason people often feel stuck in the same financial patterns, even when they actively want to break free.
The subconscious resists change to keep things familiar, so if your past has been full of financial hardship, your subconscious will naturally try to keep you in that same pattern.
Your identity shapes your financial reality
At the core of your financial reality is your identity – your subconscious perception of who you are. If your subconscious has absorbed an identity based on financial struggle, this identity will influence your actions, decisions and opportunities, often in ways that are not aligned with money creation.
For instance, if you subconsciously identify as someone who “never has enough money”, you may find yourself trying to manifest money from a scarcity and fear mindset because it matches the identity your subconscious has adopted.
In other words, your subconscious will push you to manifest (and act) in ways that align with your internal identity. This is why simply wanting to manifest more money on a conscious level isn’t enough – you must shift your subconscious identity as well.
