the difficulties and constantly discuss them. Talking to others about how in debt you are or how "times are tough" will increase your feelings of lack and fear. Remember that negative emotions and thoughts only serve one purpose-to help you learn. As soon as you've learned your lesson, get rid of those negative emotions and the words that express them. Make your decision about what you want to do, creating positive emotions, and you'll find yourself motivated to act in accordance with your new attitude and feelings about wealth. Your hope that your financial situation will get better will turn into faith.
A woman who heard me speak about wealth creation once asked me, "Should you tell others about your goals so that they hold you responsible for following through on them?" The answer is that it depends on how you think they'll respond and how you'll feel about that response. If you predict that they're likely to be encouraging, supportive, and positive, then go ahead and share your thoughts. But if you go around casually mentioning to people, "I'm going to invest in a new business," or "I've got a dream to travel to Paris," or you say this to someone who you know tends to be very fearful about money, you may very well get negative feedback. People may scoff or say, "How on earth are you going to afford that?" or "Oh, that's insanely expensive." If their response would make you feel doubtful, anxious, and foolish, don't tell them about your goal. Share your dreams only with those you can trust to support you. Affirm what you're going to do, but don't feel that you have to open yourself up to criticism and other people's negative feelings and beliefs.
