Money Metaphors:
Words we communicate attract actions.
Thoughts are things.
It's amazing how some people choose poverty just by what they say and how they view money. Many times we were taught these phrases by well-meaning parents, teachers, friends, and neighbors. Maybe we never thought they were true, but we've programmed our nervous systems into believing them because we've heard them so often.
My feeling is that if these phrases are no longer serving you and your highest good, you should eliminate them from your vocabulary.
