I wish I hadn't THIS belief about MONEY ...
    By Daria Tsvenger
    Picture this ....

    Mommy, I want to buy this dress, please?
    Mommy: "Is it on discount?"
    No, but it's very beautiful and I like it!
    If it's not on a discount that it's not worth it.
    Okay.......

    The little me decided to earn money starting the age of 9. There was an MLM office right near my school and I would go there and talk to Rita (the manager) about how I can earn money. I was sold! I asked my mom to give her passport and sign up to be a consultant on my behalf. And this is how I became friends with all shopping consultants in the nearby malls. They loved the little me running around with a big bag of cosmetics samples and passionately helping them to choose perfume and lipsticks. And yes, in a couple of months the MLM office near my school became full of 10ish year olds who were "my recruits".
    Bottomline: I loved money and the freedom it gave to a 10 year old me!

    I grew up in a traditional society and what I kept hearing is that the woman shouldn't earn the money as the man should be the main provider. It's important to find your passion and it doesn't matter if it brings money.

    Time goes buy, I get married to my love and my life has changed completely. I noticed myself become unmotivated, lazy and just have massages and manicures on my schedule. I thought that if I start earning money my husband will become less motivated and the balance of our family will be damaged. So as a good wife, I decided to search for my passion and the thought that I had in my mind "It doesn't have to bring money, but I should really like it". And that's exactly what happened. I created a project in the wellness space which I was passionate about but it would be a almost volunteering story, even when I was trying to commercialize it, it wasn't working. I was investing A LOT of effort with no result. On top of that, I felt deeply unhappy and didn't know what was wrong.

    The Mindful me was mindful enough to start searching inside herself (coaching, psychology work etc.). And what she found out that in her model of reality having money isn't even an option. I had a lot of beliefs about how passionate I should be about things I invest time in, but I could find only negative things about money. =>

    • "IF I RECEIVE MONEY = my husband would feel competition and will become lazy"
    • "IF I RECEIVE MONEY = I won't be passionate about what I do"
    • "IF I RECEIVE MONEY = I can't be a good wife"

    WHOA ...... once I realized the tight frame that I was pushing myself into, I FINALLY decided to question my model of reality. Long story short - it took me 6+ months of internal work in order to step into my confident, free, money making self.

    • I learned to recognize that I LOVE money.
    • That having money will just add up to my life, not take it away.
    • I accepted that MONEY can come to me.

    In a matter of months I started to earn more money from unexpected sources, received 6 figure job offers (one of those I accepted and worked for 1/2 year). And the best part! Now our relationships with my husband is on the next level and we are becoming a true power couple!

    This is just my story and right now I want to leave you with this question:
    • What do you think about money?
    • Where should it come from?
    • How does the current money situation is working out for you?

    If you find yourself being uncomfortable talking about money, if you're stuck in only one source of income and you feel ready to receive more money. Apply for a 1–1 coaching with me here: https://dariatsvenger.com/coaching
