Identity lies + Twitter launch
Hello Financial Healers,
Last week we talked about provision lies and closed out a 2 part series on escaping debt. If you want to re-read those posts, click here for part 1 and here for part 2.
This week we’ll talk about identity lies and my new Twitter launch. Yay!
What are identity lies?
Identity lies are unhealthy beliefs that target the foundation of who you are. They are the most important lies to get rid of.
Remember the Capacity Triangle?
Notice how identity is at the top. If you have protection and provision, but lack an understanding of identity, you’ll never have capacity with money.
When I hear arguments about glass ceilings, I wonder: do they exist to hold people down? Or is there something else causing individuals to rise while others fall? I have my own theory — that people don’t grow because they lack the ability to carry what God gives them.
Yes, outside forces influence us, and may even limit our options, but think about Holocaust survivor, Viktor Frankl (who wrote his famous book, Man’s Search for Meaning, while imprisoned in a concentration camp), or Frederick Douglass (who secretly taught himself to read while a slave).
Point is the world throws garbage at us, but we don’t have to let it destroy. We can push ourselves forward and grow to the next level.
One reason I believe Viktor Frankl and Frederick Douglass achieved so much is because they were convinced they were born for something great. They understood their identity.
Application
For homework this week, set aside time with God and ask Him what He thinks about you. Write down His truths and revisit them every day until you start to believe them. Post them onto your fridge, bathroom mirror, or use them as a bookmark for your Bible. The goal is to immerse yourself in God’s truth and let it soak into your being.
Twitter launch 🚀
I’ve mentioned before how much I despise social media, but it’s such a useful tool. Some incredible creators are on Twitter, and I’ve been so inspired by their posts that I’m expanding my marketing calendar to that platform.
One of my first steps was to update my old bio and banner. What do you think? 👇
I think it looks pretty good. It’s been hard to define exactly what I offer, but helping “you build wealth that lasts for generations” seems where my heart is.
If you aren’t following me on Twitter, please do so now! It’s about to get craaaaazy. 👇
And please share this newsletter with friends or family. I’ve so enjoyed getting to know each of my Premium Subscribers. I want to expand and help more people find Financial Healing.
And that’s it!
As always, thanks for reading. If you have any questions or comments, drop them below. 👇
