5 Consequences of Having a Love-Hate Relationship with Money
Do you have a love-hate relationship with money?
For a start, the idea of having a relationship with money may seem new to you. It sure sounded foreign to me at first. Until one day, after being exposed to the idea from various channels for years, I finally understood it!
One great way to think of the relationship you have money is to draw analogies from the relationship you have with a lover, spouse or partner. It is also easy to imagine such a relationship if you have watched romantic movies and TV shows.
Some of you may declare that you are “in love” with money. Or some of you may confess you are having such a difficult relationship that you resent the struggles you are in. It’s also possible that you describe your relationship with money as one of love-hate.
How You Do Money Is How You Do Everything
How you do money is how you do everything. How you do everything is how you do money.
How you do money is your financial behavior. Your financial behavior is a function of how you have been responding in the world. Your response is found in your emotions and thoughts.

How to Overcome the Freeze Response
In my search to find out about what keeps us stuck, I came to know more about the freeze response…
Freeze response: a survival strategy used when fight or flight is impossible.
Apparently, it is often overlooked in our studies on reactions to stress. What is the case is that we go into a fight-flight-freeze response every time we perceive that we are facing a threat.

“Based on recent literature, freeze, flight, fight, fright, faint provides a more complete description of the human acute stress response sequence than current descriptions.” Merie Friedman
