\u201cBrutal email. Go call your Russian girl because you need to get laid ASAP.\u201d \u2013 Doc Poosy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I chalked up yesterday\u2019s caustic tone to the ravages of caffeine withdrawal, but I\u2019m happy that my condition was properly diagnosed by a professional. Gonna fill that prescription STAT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the meantime, I promised the good doctor that I\u2019d be on my best behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So as promised, I\u2019m going to respond to John\u2019s question and help you eliminate any negative beliefs that might be preventing you from increasing your income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John asked\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
===<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt was drilled into me daily from a young age that money and wealth are evil, rich people are evil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its taken 50+ years to even realize that money is a tool like every other tool. Its what you do with it that decides good or evil. The same with rich people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Outwardly I know this now but my subconscious fights me on that all the time. Yet in health I can cure most anything simply because I don’t have a belief one way or the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s puzzling to me why I struggle with wealth and especially money knowing what I do. What do you suggest?\u201d \u2013 John<\/p>\n\n\n\n
===<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before I share the method, here\u2019s some quick background info on why this process is so important\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First off, how should we define a \u201cbelief?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A belief is essentially just a \u201cguess\u201d about the workings of our crazy universe. And these guesses (regardless of how \u201ccorrect\u201d they are) tend to influence every aspect of our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Think of beliefs as pieces of the hidden code that make up our operating system. They work behind the scenes to influence our behavior in subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And while having a belief that making money is difficult (or that wealth is evil) won\u2019t necessarily ensure that you\u2019ll stay trapped at the poverty level, there\u2019s a strong likelihood that it will negatively affect your cash stacking efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(Some people barely notice the negative effects, while others are crippled by them.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And like I said, whether your beliefs are \u201ccorrect\u201d is completely irrelevant, because they can strongly affect you either way. So, instead of thinking in terms of \u201cright or wrong,\u201d I\u2019d recommend thinking in terms of \u201cuseful or not useful.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And believing that wealthy people are inherently evil probably isn\u2019t a helpful belief if you\u2019re a non-psychopathic individual looking to stack truckloads of cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So how do we uncover and obliterate these nasty beliefs?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are many ways to do so but the following 4 step process is easy enough to do on your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note: This process isn\u2019t just for those struggling financially. If your money situation is perfectly fine, you can use it to bump up to a higher income bracket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In fact, you can use the process on ANY area of your life where you feel \u201cstuck,\u201d including your dating life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4-Step Belief Changing Process<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 1:<\/strong> Uncover the origin of the belief<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the trickiest part of the process. Close your eyes, state the belief out loud (e.g., \u201crich people are evil\u201d) and think about how it makes you feel. Once the feelings come up, ask yourself, \u201cwhat does this remind me of\u201d and notice what memories start to pop up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You might get a few different ones, and that\u2019s fine. Write them all down so you can tackle them one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 2:<\/strong> Dismantle the belief<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can use many of the therapeutic tools you learned in Mindvana. Take the first memory and start reframing it (i.e., come up with at least 5 other possible meanings), gestalt with the person who helped created it (imagine stepping into the scene and having a dialogue with the person), and completely deconstruct the picture (change the imagery, scramble the image, modify the sequence of events, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Keep doing these steps until the feelings start to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 3:<\/strong> Test your work<\/p>\n\n\n\n Say the belief out loud again and see if it still feels \u201ctrue.\u201d If yes, then keep working on it until it feels like something that USED to be true (like your belief in the Tooth Fairy). Sometimes, you\u2019ll need to clean up some of the other memories that popped up before it disappears for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n (There might also be another hidden memory that needs to be addressed. If you believe this is the case, ask your subconscious to bring the memory to your conscious awareness sometimes in the next couple of days. If you have a buddy who knows these techniques, ask him to do a hypnotic regression to cause.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 4:<\/strong> Begin installing a more useful belief<\/p>\n\n\n\n Create a new belief statement and then start compiling as much evidence as you can for why it MAY be true (your mind will reject absolutes at this stage).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s an example of how the entire process should look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Belief: \u201cAll rich people are evil.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 1: When you think about it, you remember a time when you were 5 years old when your dad said this to your mom after getting fired from his job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 2:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reframing: \u201cRich people are just people,\u201d \u201cRich people have the capacity to do both good and evil regardless of how much money they have,\u201d \u201cI knew one guy who had a lot of money and he was always trying to help people,\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s silly to think that a few extra zeros in a bank account would make someone instantly turn evil,\u201d etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gestalting: \u201cDad, when you say that, you\u2019re thinking about your boss, specifically. Yes, he was rich and he screwed you over but it\u2019s ridiculous to think every single rich person on the planet is like that. You also feel ashamed that you never became wealthy so you tried to find an excuse to help ease your pain. But trying to pass that fake belief on to your 5-year-old son is just going to give him the same problem that you had. I\u2019m sure you want me to become wealthy so I can have a great life and accomplish everything I\u2019m here to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Deconstructing: Take the mental movie of your parents having that conversation and change all the colors, flip it upside down, run it backwards while playing goofy music, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 3: Check it. If it feels different now, move on to step 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 4: \u201cSome people do evil things to make their money, while others become rich while delivering massive value to the world. I choose to be in this second category, since money is inherently neutral and has no ability to control me. I will start small by working to increase my income by 20% this year and see how I feel about it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then you move on to the next memory that popped up until you resolve them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes, it\u2019s a time-consuming process, but it will absolutely change your life for the better, I can promise you that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’m not exaggerating in the least when I say that this process can potentially be worth a small fortune. But ONLY IF you take action and apply what you\u2019ve learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So what changes should you expect after eliminating your pesky negative beliefs?<\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019ll talk about that tomorrow. Stay tuned\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ciao for now,<\/p>\n\n\n\n -Jay<\/p>\n\n\n\n Instagram: @jaycataldo In response to yesterday\u2019s scathing email about my unfulfilled Pretty Woman fantasies, Dr. Poosy calls in an emergency prescription\u2026 === \u201cBrutal email.
