Meet Your Bugaboo!
What is a Money Bugaboo?
Bugaboos are the subconscious thoughts and behaviors created in your mind in order to avoid a negative feeling about money.
This means:
People who have the Saving Money Bugaboo experience issues related to personal security as well as financial security.
You have past experience of seeing your savings dwindle that you feel regret or guilt about.
Every time you begin to build up your savings, you keep waiting for the other shoe to drop, and you are afraid to get your hopes up.
You have been disappointed too many times in the past and don’t even want to try anymore.
You might have experienced loss of savings in the past due to an accident, a betrayal, a business idea gone wrong, a catastrophic illness, burglary, or divorce that wiped you out.
Building your savings feels like it takes too much time and energy after such a big hit.
As someone with the Saving Money Bugaboo:
If you are an entrepreneur, this impacts your business directly and you don’t take time to create a financial plan to grow your business or make good decisions about when to spend money.
Thinking about saving money either personally or in your business leads to feelings of regret, anger, sadness, stuckness, hopelessness, discouragement or shame.
You may earn plenty of money yet feel like you live paycheck to paycheck if you have no savings.
Thinking about your lack of savings can trigger emotions that stem from thoughts about letting people down including yourself.
