Overcoming The Fear of Money

Written by Andrew Lawrence

Many people, it seems, have a fear of money. Does repparttar

thought of having a lot of money make you uncomfortable? Cause you anxiety? If so, it may be that you are buying into repparttar 130174

myths about money. Myths that are simply untrue. In fact, many of repparttar 130175

most common statements about money are often misquoted, wrong, or were made by people who did not understand money ... or had none.

Let's look at a few of repparttar 130176 myths about money ...

"Money is repparttar 130177 root of all evil" Everybody has heard this one. Unfortunately, it's one of repparttar 130178 most famous misquotes of all time. The original quote comes from repparttar 130179 New Testament and repparttar 130180 correct quote is "the LOVE of money is repparttar 130181 root of all evil". The love of money is an obsession and thus repparttar 130182 true quote warns of repparttar 130183 potential corruption that can derive from a love of, or obsession with, money (or any unhealthy preoccupation).. The fact is that money itself is neither good nor evil. It is neutral. Money can be used for good or it can be used for bad. How it is used is a choice, and repparttar 130184 choice of how to use money is in repparttar 130185 hands of he (or she) who controls it.

"Money is Power" (and Power corrupts) Money itself has no real power. For instance, if you were legally given 10 million after-tax dollars in cash, put it in a safe deposit box, never touched it and never told anyone you had it you would have no more power than you do right now. The power of money comes from repparttar 130186 use (or misuse) of it or repparttar 130187 perceived benefit or threat by others. The money itself does not generate any power; it has to be converted into power. And whether or not you wish to convert money into power is a choice. And if one decides to convert money into power that power may be used for good or for evil, depending on repparttar 130188 character of repparttar 130189 person with repparttar 130190 money.

"Money will change your life" Let's hope so! Used wisely, money can greatly ease many of life's burdens and greatly enhance one's life. Or, if you have a weak character, choose to live in fear and worry, you can let money make you miserable. It's not repparttar 130191 money, it's YOU. The important thing to realize is that you get to control repparttar 130192 money, it doesn't get to control you. Want proof? Here's how much actual control you have over your money - in repparttar 130193 extreme, you can always give all repparttar 130194 money away - and be rid of it. Just like that. You can give it all to charity, you can throw it out repparttar 130195 window, you can walk down repparttar 130196 street and hand it out. You can burn it all. It's yours and you can do whatever you want with it, including give it away. Gone. You can make it all disappear if you choose to do so. That may be a stupid choice but that choice is always yours. That's repparttar 130197 ultimate power you have over your money and it rests in your hands. Money doesn't ruin or change your life or change you or take control over your life. Unless you let it. And since you have repparttar 130198 ultimate power to get rid of it why would you let it ruin your life?
