The Race Begins At The Starting Line!

The Race Begins At The Starting Line!

I often hear, “I don’t make enough money to track it.”  I have come to the conclusion that this is something we tell ourselves when we really just don’t want to look at it.

There are many reasons why we don’t like to look at our numbers and most of them stem from a place of lack or fear.  Unfortunately money and financial tracking has a bad reputation as a measuring stick that carries a heavy club attached.  We can often feel like we are not measuring up on the stick (and believe me that happens at all income levels) and then we use the club to beat ourselves up.

I know my club was always “Well if I was smarter I would be in a different place than I am today!”

Here is the truth.  There is no measuring stick! And the only club is one that we create.

Money is a tool.  For those of you who have been reading my posts for some time you know I say this a lot.  It’s because I know it is true.

Money is a tool that can teach us so much about ourselves and about how the world operates.  When we choose to engage with money it doesn’t take long to figure out that how we work with money can truly empower us, no matter where we are beginning with it.

Where do you find yourself in these situations?

  • you have a business that is not yet profitable
  • you have a lot of debt
  • you are living a lifestyle that your bank account does not yet support
  • you are playing small and your dreams are passing you by

If any of these things are true for you, I have some very good news for you.

It is possible to be empowered with money.  To declare the type of life you would like to live and then create a plan to get there regardless of where you are starting.

The first step is taking a look at where you are today.  Getting really clear on your personal and business financial picture.  What this means to me is creating comprehensive reports that is grounded in the facts of our bank account.  You see we are all master storytellers.  We can tell ourselves what we think the picture is but until we have real solid numbers to review, we truly are just guessing.

So back to the beginning.  If you are an adult, I know you have money to track.  If you are in business, you have more to track.

How would you like to feel empowered with your numbers instead of in fear of them?

What would be possible for you if you truly knew what your next best step was to creating the life you desired?

Just this week as I was reviewing with two of my CEO Clients, where they were at the beginning of this year and where they are today they both commented on how much better they were able to do their work because they were no longer feeling bad about their money situation.  For both of these women the conversation was around creating what they wanted and not constricting to fit a budget.

This is possible for you as well.  Are you ready?  Click here to schedule a time to talk.  This time of year I open my calendar for a limited number of spots for people who are truly ready to explore taking on this thing called money.  Click here now for a no obligation conversation to see if we are a good fit!
