Relationship Assumptions to Avoid When Money is Tight

Saying to a working mom “don’t let money affect your relationships” is like saying “don’t let oxygen affect your breathing.”

Without one, it’s awfully hard to have the other.

What I tell my coaching clients who come to me with money worries is that money doesn’t CHANGE anything; it REVEALS everything.

Money acts as a magnifying glass. If you’re a poor jerk, you’ll be a rich jerk – only jerkier. If you’re a broke nice person, you’ll be a rich nice person – only nicer.

And if there are problems simmering beneath the surface in your relationship, those problems will only be exacerbated when money’s tight.

So in these tough financial times, how can we make sure our relationships stay healthy (even if our 401K doesn’t)?

One morning in April 1997, I was taking a shower and thinking about how the human mind is always in the process of asking and seeking the answers to questions. For example, if I were to ask you “Why is the sky blue?”, your mind would start searching for the answer. So I asked myself a logical question: “If the human mind is always asking and searching for the answers to questions, why are we told to repeat positive statements we don’t believe? Instead, why don’t we ask ourselves empowering questions – questions that will force us to change our thought patterns from negative to positive in order to answer them?”
