The Psychology of Money: Rewiring Your Brain for Abundance

Описание: Do you feel "broke" even when you have money? Or do you feel paralyzed when making financial decisions? In this session, we dive deep into the psychology behind Scarcity and Abundance mindsets. Based on concepts from Morgan Housel and the book "Scarcity: Why Having Too Little Means So Much", we explore how scarcity isn't just about your bank account—it's a biological and psychological state that can actually lower your functional IQ.

We break down the "Scarcity Trap," identify the four roots of scarcity thinking, and walk through practical, research-backed strategies to rewire your brain for abundance—regardless of your current net worth.

In this video, we cover:
**The Science of Scarcity: How "tunneling" and the "bandwidth tax" hijack your decision-making.
**The Matrix: Understanding where you fit between "Phantom Scarcity" (high resources, high anxiety) and the "Optimistic Builder".
**Actionable Steps: How to create "slack," define your "Enough" number, and use gratitude to shift your nervous system.
