Since our childhood, we are programmed to live in scarcity, poverty, having a middle-class mindset, limiting our ability, and live like a slave in fear always. For small-small things, we are unknowingly programmed against the money at a deep subconscious level without our knowledge even. How all these can make changes in our behavior pattern over a period of time. Some examples are:
- Our parent used to tell us about a certain item that it is very costly.. use it carefully, don't pay or break
- Something never purchased as it is beyond our affordability
- We didn't have enough money to pay
- You broke any costly toy accidentally and felt guilty thereafter
- We never tried to do a new thing in fear of any loss
- Used food/stuff carefully as limited quantity was available
- Didn't spend much on curd/milk/biscuits
- Why did you need new clothes now... purchase during the festival season
- For guests, it was a new bedsheet and we used the older one for self
- We didn't deserve any new things
- Used clothes/slippers till it got completely wear & tear
- If anything broken - had impacted the budget drastically
- Used steel utensils for self and glass crockery for the guests
It is sometimes like penny-wise and pound-foolish. We are more careful about small amounts of money but not about large amounts. We are now focusing on short-term immediate savings. For example, switch off the light, save on the water bill. Something we try to save or cut funding a small amount of money now but that will cost a large amount of money in the future plans.
We never think about how to get rich and acquire 10 cr - 1000 cr. We are not focusing to get the knowledge to improve our mindset at a subconscious level. We just think like we programmed since childhood for small-small things. Some major hurdle we make w.r.t. money is that:
- paisa ped par nahi lagta
- paisa bura hai
- all businessman chor hai
- paisa do number see banta hai
- paisa kismat se aata hai
- paisa lottery see milta hai
- tax chori se paisa banta hai
Will write more on how to change & reprogramme our subconscious mind for money.
