Book Description
If people keep stumbling in their financial lives, they need to look at what's tripping them up," said Ted Klontz, Onsite's director. "Usually, it's a historical half-truth about money that also tripped up their parents." (Wall Street Journal - September 2003)
What the Wall Street Journal was referring to in their story that quoted Ted Klontz, was a workshop he conducts at Onsite Workshops in Nashville called "Healing Money Issues." This training, attended recently by Wynona Judd (and talked about A LOT in her new book), inspired a new book, THE FINANCIAL WISDOM OF EBENEZER SCROOGE: Transforming Your Relationship with Money.
Why Ebenezer Scrooge? Just as in the case of most workshop participants, Klontz and his co-authors and workshop co-facilitators Rick Kahler and son, Brad, believe that the root of Scrooge's miserly existence was not an anemic cash flow but an unhealthy belief system about money. THE FINANCIAL WISDOM OF EBENEZER OF EBENEZER SCROOGE introduces us to our "money scripts - the beliefs behind the behaviors" and leads us toward transformation and action.
For many people, current painful or confusing money issues such as overspending, hoarding, entitlement, "thinking poor" debting; inability to receive, save, or follow through on good financial plans, and similar issues often have historic ties to innocent beliefs and feelings from our past.
This book is designed for people seeking to understand their relationship with money. It's principles of financial freedom and prosperity teach readers to:
- Identify the beliefs and feelings about money that keep them stuck
- Examine how your net worth can impact their self-worth
- Discover their authentic goals and values
- Process life experiences that have shaped their relationship with money
- Look at new ways of gaining information about and relating to money
- Develop a model of recovery from dysfunctional or painful money issues
- Leave a family legacy of financial wellness
THE FINANCIAL WISDOM OF EBENEZER SCROOGE is a timely response to a recent American Psychological Association survey which shows that unresolved money issues is the # 1 stressor for 73% of Americans. Finally, we can learn what's behind the issue and take action for change.
