Stop saying “I’m broke.”

Stop wearing financial struggle like a personality.

Your identity creates your reality — not the other way around.

The longer you call yourself broke, the longer you stay there.

Not just financially, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

INSIGHT

You are not broke.

You just keep telling yourself that story.

And stories become prisons when we stop questioning them.

You just need to shift how you define value.

Because money is just one form of wealth.

There’s also time, peace, health, clarity, community, confidence, freedom.

The person who wakes up with energy, discipline, and purpose is already ahead.

But if they call themselves broke, they’ll miss it all.

They’ll walk around blind to their blessings.

And they’ll act like someone who has nothing — even when sitting on gold.

Self-image is everything.

You don’t act according to what’s true. You act according to what you believe is true.

So when you say “I’m broke,” you’re not just describing your finances.

You’re programming your self-worth.

You’re telling your mind to shrink, not expand.

You’re telling your emotions to brace, not breathe.

And you’re creating a loop of lack — even when abundance is within reach.

It’s not just toxic positivity. It’s practical identity-building.

You want money? Start treating yourself like someone who attracts it. Not someone who chases it.

You want freedom? Start seeing yourself as someone worthy of it. Not someone who has to earn it through burnout.

You want peace? Start identifying as someone who protects it. Not someone who only deserves it after struggle.

We don’t rise to the level of our goals. We fall to the level of our identity.

ACTION

Here’s what I want you to do:

1. Stop saying “I’m broke.” Eliminate that phrase from your mouth. Forever.

2. Write your new identity. “I am building wealth. I am aligned with abundance. I live with clarity and purpose.”

3. List your riches. What do you have right now that money can’t buy? Peace? Health? Knowledge? Discipline? Acknowledge it everyday.

4. Act like someone wealthy. Not flashy — stable. Wealthy people plan. Think long term. Operate calmly.

Start showing up like someone who already has value. Because you do.

I love this clip from Rich & Unemployed podcast. Beyond calling himself “rich”, this guy started making people call him the same on a daily basis and it helped to frame his mentality to fulfill his abundant self-image. He embraced being rich as an identity. It shows the importance of self-image as we discussed today.
