Hi! Do you want to know what makes one person successful with money and another not successful? It’s their money mindset.
 
Every day, we make choices that either move us forward financially or set us back.  Do you believe you can live a healthy financial life whereby you spend on what you want and save for what matters you and for your future?
 
There are too many of us who hit the snooze button when it comes to thinking about our finances and “hope” we will be ready to retire when the time comes to do so.   Hoping is not a plan and it is not choosing happy.
 
In today’s show, I’m sharing with you 3 tips for creating a positive money mindset, including one of the three money affirmations that are in the Choose Happy affirmation card deck. 
 
If you’re ready to change your scarcity mindset to one of abundance, this episode is for you!
 
This is the final part of the Choose Happy Money Mindset series.

Hi! Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed when you hear the words “budget” and “saving”?
 
Ever say to yourself:  “I’m bad with money.”  Or, “I know I should budget, but what’s the point? I’ll never afford “x” … i.e. .a house, car, vacation, etc.”
 
If any of the above sounds familiar to you, it’s your money mindset and it may be standing in your way of choosing happy for living a healthy financial life. 
 
In today’s training, I’m sharing with you the money affirmation I authored that is in the Choose Happy affirmation card deck that helped me re-write the negative self-talk that was standing in my way of saving for what I really wanted for my future. 
 
It’s time to ditch the negativity that is standing in your way. 
 
This is part 3 of the Choose Happy Money Mindset series.
