They say that a beggar and a rich man live in every person, and it depends only on him who he will accept in himself and whom he will allow to develop. Most often, people give the right to exist to the first, not suspecting that they can well be provided for if they get rid of the psychology of a beggar.
What makes a person come to terms with the life situation? Many are dissatisfied with their lives, but do not dare to change it for the better - especially the amount of money they earn. It is clear that, as the saying goes, "some do not have enough for a string of pearls, and some for a piece of bread," and yet many could have had much more money if they had gotten rid of the psychology of a beggar.
The attitude towards money is formed from many factors:
- parenting (we adopt the habits and principles of parents);
- stereotypes accepted in society (we live "like everyone else");
- personal self-esteem (we love ourselves or quite the opposite).
As a result, most people have no purpose in life; do not know what they really want us; do not like their job, because they go there only to earn money; immediately spend what they earned, without putting it off for important matters; are content with little and think that it is noble; money is considered evil; do not try to earn more by changing jobs or starting their own business. A completely recognizable portrait of our contemporary, who consoles himself with the following myths:
* To be rich, you have to work hard.
If you look at doctors, teachers, miners and people of other professions, you can see that many of them work a lot, work hard, take two rates and still do not have enough money.
* Financial success guarantees a prestigious education.
Now there are many people in the markets with two higher educations who did not help them reach the top of their profession. Apparently, it’s not a matter of a diploma.
* Others know better how much to pay for my work.
This is true: as you value yourself, you will be paid. And often the one who pays underestimates the value of the worker's real labor. Wouldn't it be better to charge an adequate price for your work?
* It is impossible to work at your favorite job and get big money.
Any business argues, if it is to your liking - then everything goes like clockwork. Very often a business or job starts with a hobby. If there is interest, a creative approach - both money will be, and others will appreciate it.
* A good specialty is the guarantor of wealth.
People in the same profession often have different wealth. A private doctor and a doctor in a polyclinic, a lawyer in a large company and in the public sector, and many other examples.
* Before you start your business, you need to get a big inheritance.
In the practice of businessmen, there are many examples when unexpectedly dumped money floated out of the hands of someone who does not know how to handle it. And the most durable business is the one that developed gradually, and the funds earned at the initial stage were gradually invested in it.
What to do to overcome all these stereotypes and get rid of the psychology of the beggar? Analyze yourself using the above text and honestly answer the question: what percentage of this or that statement applies to me? You will find a lot of new and interesting things in yourself.
The second step is to stop blaming others for what is happening to you. Neither the family nor the state is to blame for anything. After all, people around you live in the same environment, but how different they are!
Third. Find the most harmful negative traits in yourself that can prevent you from changing - these are fear and laziness. As soon as the very first impulse of these emotions appears, stifle them at the root.
And the last point - if you want to overcome the psychology of a beggar, you will have to take responsibility for everything that happens in your life. And also take responsibility for your future and the future of your loved ones. What and how do you want to see in the future? When and how much?
