Most men think their lack of money is a strategy problem.
They convince themselves:
❌ “I need a better offer.”
❌ “I just need to work harder.”
❌ “Maybe it’s the economy.”
But in reality? Your biggest money problem is your mindset.
You can have the best business model, the best skills, and still be broke as hell if you subconsciously repel money.
I know this firsthand.
When I first started my coaching business, I was stuck in my own money blocks—hesitating to charge my worth, avoiding sales calls, and downplaying my skills.
Fast forward to today? I’m coaching men who are closing multiple high-ticket clients in their first few weeks.
One of my new clients just signed 2 clients in his first 5 weeks, and another signed 4 clients in his first 4 weeks.
What changed?
Their mindset.
Today, I’m breaking down 7 key money blocks keeping you stuck—and how to shift into a mindset that attracts money instead of chasing it.
🚧 The 7 Hidden Money Blocks Holding You Back 🚧
1. You Subconsciously Believe Making Money is Hard
If you grew up hearing:
💰 “Money doesn’t grow on trees.”
💰 “You have to work hard for every dollar.”
💰 “Rich people are greedy.”
Your brain will literally reject wealth to stay loyal to those beliefs.
💡 The Shift:
Start seeing money as a flow, not a struggle. The people making $20k/month aren’t “working harder” than you—they’re working smarter and with the right beliefs.
2. You Feel Guilty Charging More
If you hesitate to charge higher prices, it’s because deep down, you don’t believe your value is worth that amount.
I used to undercharge for coaching, thinking, “If I make it cheaper, more people will buy.” Instead, I attracted low-commitment, low-effort clients.
💡 The Shift:
The right clients don’t flinch at your price. They expect to pay for real transformation. You get paid based on the problems you solve, not the hours you work.
3. You Avoid Selling Because It Feels “Pushy”
Most men struggle to sell because they think it’s convincing people to buy.
Reality?
Selling is leadership.
If you believe in your service, you’re doing them a favor by offering it.
💡 The Shift:
Think of your offer as oxygen to a drowning man. He doesn’t need convincing—he needs you to show him the solution.
4. You Only Make Money When You’re “Grinding”
If you believe money only comes from pain, stress, and struggle, you’ll unconsciously push away easier, scalable opportunities.
💡 The Shift:
The wealthiest people make money in the flow. Start shifting from grind mode to value mode. Money flows to the most valuable person in the room, not the hardest worker.
5. You Subconsciously Fear Success
Sounds crazy, right? But a lot of men fear success because they associate it with:
⚡ More pressure
⚡ More Responsibility
⚡ More chances to fail publicly
So they self-sabotage and stay at a level where they feel safe.
💡 The Shift:
You deserve success. The more money you make, the more people you can help, the more freedom you create, and the bigger impact you leave.
6. You Don’t Have the Right Circle
If your friends complain about money, stay stuck in the same patterns, and never invest in themselves, guess what? You’ll subconsciously match their energy.
💡 The Shift:
Start surrounding yourself with people who are making more than you. Money follows proximity.
7. You Don’t Invest in Yourself
If you’re scared to spend money on coaching, skills, or personal growth, you’re telling your subconscious, “I don’t trust myself to make this back.”
💡 The Shift:
Every successful entrepreneur invests in their mind first. Your return on investment isn’t just the skill—it’s the belief shift that comes with it.
