Does it feel like everyone seems to be talking about “Money Blocks”?
And you’re like
“What the hell is a “money block”?”
Me too!
I was super confused about “blocks” of any kind. Then I did some research and discovered it’s one of those jargon words. I had already been through my money (mindset) coaching program and my coach trainer never mentioned a “money block”.
What are money blocks in business and how do you know if you have one? The Email Optimizer
In a nutshell, “Money Blocks” are thinking traps that are occurring in your subconscious mind that cause you to sabotage yourself.
There’s a blend of emotional drivers and beliefs in this mix and it can be complicated. I go into how beliefs are formed and modified in this post. Read it if you are interested in know how these things work. For right now let’s just talk about what “money blocks” are.
“Money blocks” are defined as thoughts, feelings, or actions that lead you to not bring money into your life because of what you believe to be true about yourself, others, and the world.
It’s also when the money in your life just floats away with no proof of ever being there. These are also referred to as “abundance blocks” because you are blocking abundance from your life either consciously or subconsciously.
You’re being driven subconsciously to sabotage yourself. If you fear being visible is going to be unsafe whether because you aren’t good enough, you don’t believe you know enough, or people might laugh at you then you avoid doing the things that cause you to be visible.
This is especially if you know this is most definitely going to grow your business.
So, how do you know if you have a money block?
Easy! Money isn’t flowing to you in a way that’s happy and fulfilling. That shows up in your life and business as:
- You feel overwhelmed, tired, drained, scared, bored, like hiding, etc.
- You procrastinate
- You are a perfectionist (which is only high level procrastination)
- You’re hard on yourself
- You doing things based on emotional distress like eating, shopping, and sleeping when you could be working on your business.
- You do other things to avoid the things in your business (aka procrastinate lol)
- You have no follow-through muscle
- You don’t send emils regularly
- You don’t have any automated email sequences set up
- You delay sending invoices
- You don’t have a way for people to pay you
- You haven’t put up a work with me page on your website
- You feel vague about your mission
- etc, etc, etc!
So as you can see,
If you struggle with taking the money-making actions in your business or the actions that make you more visible to potential clients chances are there’s something working behind the scenes.
