This document discusses Simon Sinek's concept of "The Golden Circle", which proposes that great leaders motivate people by inspiring them with a clear reason or purpose ("Why") for their work, rather than simply describing what they do ("What") or how they do it ("How"). The Golden Circle follows a natural pattern that starts from the inside - with understanding the deeper Why - and then moves outward. The document uses Apple as an example, contrasting how most companies would describe themselves versus how Apple communicates by starting with its inspiring purpose or belief before discussing products or methods. It encourages teachers to consider applying this principle to better motivate through a sense of shared meaning and purpose.

Don’t wait until you reach success to become happier! Most of us are relatively happy, but we are also aware that we could be happier. We believe happiness will come when we reach certain goals in our lives like getting married, buying a new home, getting a raise, a promotion, or a new job. So we forego a little happiness today and this week so we can reach those goals sooner. However the goals we thought would make us happy turn out to be just milestones on a long journey, and our happiness does not materialize like we had hoped. Happiness in the form of a deep sense of contentment, satisfaction, and fulfilment seems to be missing.
This book will help by providing a clear plan on how to choose happiness and then leverage that happiness to become even more successful. Don’t spend your life chasing success and hoping for happiness, learn how to connect happiness and success.

This document provides prompts and exercises for journaling to improve self-esteem, self-understanding, and emotional well-being. It includes prompts for challenging negative thoughts, writing about strengths and qualities, keeping a gratitude journal, and reflecting on accomplishments and relationships. The goal is to help people build self-awareness and self-acceptance through regular journaling and examining thoughts and experiences in a positive light.
After decades of service, many question whether they have been successful or failed in life. However, success is difficult to define and means different things to different people. While some view material wealth as a measure of success, others find fulfillment in contributions outside of financial gains. Ultimately, personal success depends on one's goals and achievements. Staying motivated, learning from mistakes, and doing work with passion and sincerity can help one find success on their own terms.
This document discusses strategies for achieving balance and managing your time effectively. It recommends focusing on a "must do" list rather than a "to do" list, knowing your limitations and saying "no" when needed. It also suggests seeking help from others, surrounding yourself with capable people, and working as an effective team. Additional tips include tracking how you spend your time, being fully present during tasks, and making time for important relationships. The overall message is the importance of balance and prioritizing what really matters for well-being.

INTRODUCTION
Why (and How) This Book Can
Transform Your Financial Future
Forever…
Have you ever had a moment in your life that transformed it forever?
Maybe it was the moment you met your significant other, took a new job, moved to a
different city, or made some other decision that changed your life…
I think this may be one of those moments for you.
I say that because it’s the experience that thousands of people have had after using the
solutions in this e-book.
What you’ll find in these pages is more than “103 Disempowering Beliefs About Money
and Success.”
The solutions in this book will show you a path to rewire your brain and body to bring
out the best of your abilities, a version of yourself that feels so true, so pure, and so at
home that it will create the financial success, and the life, that you deserve.
Are you ready to live that life? Do you even believe it’s possible? I know you can create
that life, and I want to guide you to get there!
Before we get started though, I want to strongly recommend that you join me for one of
my webinar presentations on “How to Create an Abundant, Stress-Free Financial
Future Faster Than You Ever Thought Possible” by clicking here.
4. On these webinar presentations I’m able to guide you to go deeper than I can in a book
alone. Plus, I’m able to demonstrate the techniques that have worked for me and
thousands of others that I’ve worked with better than I can in a book alone.
Typically the webinar presentations run between an hour and two hours so be prepared
to go deep and get some amazing results! OK, let’s keep going…
Most of us, at some point (or many), struggle with feeling unsuccessful, with feeling
unfulfilled in our work and insecure in our finances. We also on some level know
financial abundance could go hand in hand with personal fulfillment, but we’re never
been taught how to achieve financial abundance doing what we love.
Ever felt like that? Like achieving financial abundance doing work that fulfills you is
something that only a select few other people get to experience?
We’ve all tried working harder and longer. Many of us have changed jobs, even careers,
but still, financial security seems out of reach. Even success, when it does come, isn’t
always fulfilling.
The whole process is exhausting!
The cycle continues until finally, we end up feeling resigned to dreams so small, they
barely sustain us.
What if that could all be in the past? What if, starting right now, you could begin
following an entirely new path doing work you love that fully supports you, your life, and
your future?
That’s exactly what this book can do for you. Using the solutions I’ll share with you in
these pages, you can get on that new path, a path that, if you continue to follow it, will
change your entire experience around work, money, personal fulfillment, and much
more.
Funny thing is, while the results people achieve with the process I’ll soon share are
often amazing and life-changing, most people are surprised by how natural and stress-
free the process feels.
Page 4
5. Page 5
That’s because, as a result of the process, people are – finally! – able to release stress
and shed the beliefs that have been holding them back.
Without those obstacles standing in their way, they can gain positive forward
momentum faster and more easily than ever before.
Before we continue, there’s just one thing you need to know. The tools I’ll share in these
pages are powerful solutions regardless of your goals, profession, skills, experience,
age, and current financial status.
They’re a seamless blend of ancient wisdom and modern science. They are timeless
and limitless, so it’s never, ever “too late” or “too soon.”
So… are you ready? Are you ready to dramatically improve your financial success and
personal fulfillment?
If you’ve gotten this far, I think you are… !
6. ABOUT THE AUTHOR
As we begin this journey together, I think it’s
important that you know who I am.
My name is Nick Ortner. I’m the New York
Times best-selling author of the books “The
Tapping Solution: A Revolutionary System for
Stress-Free Living” and “The Tapping Solution
for Pain Relief.”
I’m also the producer of the documentary film
“The Tapping Solution: The Revolution Starts
Within” and the annual Tapping World
Summits, which have been attended by over 1
million people.
I’m a husband and father with a deep passion for supporting people in living healthy,
abundant lives that are low in stress and high in fulfillment.
One of the most rewarding parts of my work is the time and energy I dedicate to the
Tapping Solution Foundation, which I founded in 2012, soon after the Sandy Hook
school shooting in my hometown of Newtown, CT.
The initial goal for the Foundation was to help teachers, parents, students and first-
responders overcome the tragedy of that shooting. While our work there continues, the
Foundation’s success has allowed us to extend our reach. In recent years we’ve had
the honor of working with schools and organizations from Connecticut to New York,
California and beyond.
At TheTappingSolution.com I have the privilege of working with my brother Alex,
sister Jessica, father Martin, and nine other amazing team members.

8. CHAPTER 1
DISCOVERING YOUR LIMITING BELIEFS ABOUT
MONEY AND SUCCESS
“If you believe you can or if you believe you can’t… you’re right.”
– Henry Ford
Success. Money. Personal fulfillment.
If you’re honest with yourself, do you really believe you can “have it all”—that you can
make great money doing what you love while also enjoying a rewarding personal life?
Do you believe it’s possible for others but maybe not for you? That perhaps you don’t
have the education, or the skills, or the support group, or that you’re just not lucky
enough?
For years I, like many, struggled to believe that success was possible for me. Always
stressed out about money, unhappy in jobs, I worked long hours at nights and on
weekends to get various businesses off the ground.
When success appeared, it was exhilarating but unsustainable. The cycle went on and
on, until one day I found myself in over a million dollars of debt due to the failure of
my real estate investing business.
I won’t go into how it happened (that’s a story for another day!), but I will say that it was
one of the toughest times of my life.
Overwhelmed and exhausted, I struggled to believe in myself, and in my ability to
succeed and achieve financial freedom in a way that would leave me feeling personally
fulfilled and inspired by the work I was doing and the life I was living.
Page 8
9. If you’ve been through tough times, or if you’re currently going through tough times, you
know exactly what I mean.
Financial stress adds so much pressure to our everyday lives, clouding our ability to feel
free and fulfilled, healthy and energized. If you stop to think about your finances right
now, how do you feel they limit you?
How have your finances affected your happiness, your sense of well-being and personal
fulfillment? How have they impacted your relationships?
Personally speaking, it wasn’t until I took a look at what was going on internally
that I realized why I had been stuck for so long.
When I did that, I discovered that my beliefs – around money, work, myself, rich people,
what it would take to be successful, and much more – were dictating my life.
For the first time, I understood how much my own beliefs were limiting the amount of
financial success and personal fulfillment I could experience.
That realization was a huge turning point for me. It was the moment when I began to
understand that I’d only be able to change my life once I’d changed my beliefs.
As important as my realization was, that alone never could have transformed my life. It
was only when I used the tapping technique to transform my beliefs (I’ll share how
soon) that my work, finances and daily life began to follow suit.
Because the truth is, even when you know your limiting beliefs are standing in your way,
transforming them isn’t always just about force-feeding yourself positive beliefs.
I’m a huge believer in positive thinking, but just thinking positive thoughts often
isn’t sufficient to overwrite limiting beliefs in a deep and lasting way.
The fact is, beliefs around money, success and happiness are so deeply ingrained that
they look and feel like “the truth.” They’re often connected to deep emotions, and
sometimes to old, buried memories as well.
Until we’re able to access these deeper root(s) of our beliefs, transforming them can
Page 9
10. feel like a long, slow climb up a large, steep mountain.
And while I was more than willing to put in the time and effort to transform my beliefs,
spending years, even decades “working on it” wasn’t what I wanted. I wanted deep and
lasting transformation, and I wanted it yesterday.
Can you relate?
If you’ve spent as many years as I did searching and reaching for success and
abundance that’s authentic to who you are, what you love to do, and how you want to
live your life, I’m sure you know what I mean.
The truth is, in order for positive beliefs to support you in living the abundant and
fulfilling life you deserve, you have to truly believe them, not just mentally, but
emotionally as well on a subconscious level.
One of the fastest and most powerful ways to access the deeper roots of your beliefs—
information that’s often stored in the subconscious mind—is through the body.
That’s what makes the tapping techniques I’ll share in this book so powerful. They don’t
just stuff new positive beliefs down your throat, hoping that your subconscious will follow
suit.
Instead, the techniques I’ll share guide you toward a time-tested process of
transformation that’s both deeper and faster.
The solutions I’ll teach you in these pages will allow you to release old limiting beliefs
and become mentally and emotionally invested in new and more empowering beliefs.
Once that happens, your entire life begins to transform. With your new, empowering
beliefs as deeply ingrained as your old ones once were, your experience around work,
money, success and fulfillment naturally begin to support the abundant and fulfilling life
you deserve.
The first step in this process of transforming your limiting beliefs is identifying
them.
Page 10
11. Even if you think you already know what they are, I urge you to take the time to go
through this list of 103 disempowering beliefs one at a time, and be honest with
yourself about how true each belief feels.
And I want to stress the word feels because that’s where you get a true measurement.
You might have a conscious “positive thinking” belief of, “I’m a good salesman/woman”
but when you stop and read that statement aloud and feel it in your body, you might
suddenly feel the truth of that subconsciously as you think something like, “No I’m not.
Who am I kidding? I never get good results.” That gut feeling that comes up is the true
measurement of our beliefs.
As you go through this process, make sure to read each statement aloud (or internally if
you don’t have the space to do that because of others around you) and FEEL in your
body how true each statement feels to you.
After you’ve gone through this process of identifying your limiting beliefs, in the next
chapter, you’ll begin eliminating them using Tapping, the incredibly powerful and
effective technique that I use, and have shared with thousands of clients who are
reaping the rewards of their new lives each and every day.
So let’s get started!
Exercise: Identifying Your Limiting Beliefs
To do this exercise, you’ll need 10 - 15 minutes of uninterrupted time. As I mentioned,
ideally, you’ll want to read each belief out loud, and rate how true it feels on a scale of
0 - 10, with 10 being completely true, and 0 being not true at all.
For each limiting belief you rate — for instance, “I’m not good with money” — you’ll then
rate a related empowering belief —"I am good with money” —according to how true it
feels on a scale of 0 - 10.

more than I want to give.
Success and wealth can and
do co-exist with a rewarding

important part of my success.

Congratulations, you’ve completed the first step!
Be sure to save this list of your limiting beliefs, since you’ll need to refer to it later.
22. Page 22
Before we continue, I wanted to mention one thing. After doing this exercise, people
often feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of limiting beliefs they discover.
Don’t worry, it’s completely normal to have a long list! What people often find is that
there are a few key limiting beliefs that are the biggest blocks. Once those are
eliminated, their finances and life quickly begin to transform.
23. CHAPTER 2
What “Tapping” Is and Why It Can
Rewire Your Brain and Body for
Success
Next we’ll look at how beliefs impact you emotionally, mentally and physically.
You’ll also learn how to transform them with tapping, the simple, yet life-changing
technique that you can use to rewire your brain and body to eliminate old, limiting
beliefs and instill empowering beliefs that will take you and your life in an entirely new
direction.
In addition I’ll share some of the science and research behind why tapping is so
effective. I’ll also fill you in on what some of the world’s leading experts, from
psychologists, to doctors, to life coaches, are saying about the technique.
Beliefs, The Brain and Your Body
Most of us, at some point, were taught that thoughts and emotions are “just in our
heads.” Thanks to research done over the past few decades, we now know that’s not
true.
A simple belief, in fact, creates a cascade of emotional and physical reactions. In other
words, one thought—one belief—can shift your entire experience at any given
moment.
These changes happen so fast and so automatically that we’re often unaware of them.
Neuroscientists estimate that we operate at least 95% of our lives from
subconscious programs.1
That’s a HUGE number! Without our conscious awareness, the subconscious mind
hijacks our emotions and body by initiating what’s called the stress response.
Page 23
24. Page 24
Before we look at that stress response in more detail, it’s helpful to understand a little
more about the brain.
When we’re looking at transforming beliefs, it’s important to understand that the
human brain focuses more on negative outcomes than on positive ones.
In order to protect us, it has evolved to always assume the worst—it’s biased toward
negativity. In his book Hardwiring Happiness, Rick Hanson, Ph.D., explains the brain’s
“negativity bias” in more detail:
Our ancestors could make two kinds of mistakes: (1) thinking there was a tiger in
the bushes when there wasn’t one, and (2) thinking there was no tiger in the
bushes when there actually was one. The cost of the first mistake was needless
anxiety, while the cost of the second one was death. Consequently, we evolved to
make the first mistake a thousand times to avoid making the second mistake even
once . . . the default setting of the brain is to overestimate threats, underestimate
opportunities, and underestimate resources both for coping with threats and for
fulfilling opportunities. Then we update these beliefs with information that confirms
them, while ignoring or rejecting information that doesn’t. There are even regions
in the amygdala specifically designed to prevent the unlearning of fear, especially
from childhood experiences. As a result, we end up preoccupied by threats that
are actually smaller or more manageable than we’d feared, while overlooking
opportunities that are actually greater than we’d hoped for. In effect, we’ve got a
brain that’s prone to “paper tiger paranoia.”
Can you relate to what Hanson calls “the special power of fear”? Most of us can because
it’s been hammered into our minds since before we can remember.
Think about your own experience. Imagine that, near the end of an otherwise great day
at work, you get an ambiguous, potentially troubling email from a boss or client.
Are you most likely to end your day focusing on all the great things that actually happened,
or the one possibly negative email you received? For most, that one email quickly
overshadows the entire day.
25. Page 25
That’s remarkable, if you think about it, since the full meaning of the email isn’t even clear.
It may be no big deal, but even before understanding whether the email is actually
negative, your brain disregards all of the positive experiences that actually happened and
instead focuses on what might be wrong.
Within seconds, your brain decided that this potential threat is more significant than the
many positive experiences that have already occurred.
That’s your primitive brain at work. That’s how the brain’s negativity bias works.
To put it another way, because of how our brains evolved, negative experiences regularly
outweigh positive ones.
The psychologist Daniel Kahnemann was awarded the Nobel Prize in economics for
showing that most people will make more effort to avoid loss than to benefit from
an equivalent gain.
In intimate relationships, it typically takes at least five positive interactions to
counterbalance every negative one.
And for people to begin to thrive in life, positive moments usually need to outweigh
negative ones by at least a three-to-one ratio.
When you think about your own finances and work, as well as your experiences around
success and personal fulfillment, have you typically had THREE times more positive
experiences than negative ones?
For most of us, the answer is no, or at least, I don’t know. Either way, the brain’s
“negativity bias” is running the show.
The question then becomes, how can we interrupt this “negativity bias” in a way that
produces positive, lasting transformation? That’s where the stress response comes in.
Disrupting The Stress Response
The amygdala, a key component of what we refer to as the “primitive brain,” is the area
of the brain that gets activated when you’re under stress.
26. Page 26
It’s also involved in emotions, and typically gets activated more by negative experiences
than by positive ones.
While the brain’s negativity bias has done a great job of protecting us, it also causes
enormous stress. When your body is under stress, it secretes the hormone cortisol, also
known as the “stress hormone.”
When you experience ongoing stress for a long period of time, your body continues
releasing excessive amounts of cortisol, which has a host of effects on your
mental, emotional and physical state.
If you’re perpetually stressed about money, for instance, your cortisol levels may remain
elevated, which may lead to symptoms like:
•! Poor sleep (insomnia, sleep disruptions, or waking up exhausted after a full night’s
rest)
•! Slower metabolism
•! Fatigue
•! Weight gain
•! Difficulty concentrating
•! Lowered creativity
•! Decreased problem-solving abilities
•! Lower productivity
•! Less likely to exercise, eat nutritious food, and take care of yourself in other ways
•! Depression
•! Weakened immune response (making you more vulnerable to illness, chronic pain,
etc.)
This stress cycle goes on and on, diminishing your ability to be your best, feel your best,
and perform at your best. The high levels of the “stress hormone” cortisol in your body
are now running your life.
That’s where tapping gives us a unique advantage.
Tapping involves tapping lightly on acupuncture points with your fingertips.
27. Page 27
These points on the body were first viewed in the laboratory in the 1960s, and have
since been documented using Doppler ultrasound and thermal imaging equipment.
Research findings confirm that these points are noticeably different from other points on
the body, displaying high-density “nerve bundles” and muscle “trigger points.”2
Used for more than 2,000 years in Chinese medicine, acupuncture points are thought to
carry information between the brain and body. Basically, they function like a super
highway, passing information between the body and the subconscious mind.
Tapping on these points has been shown to produce fast and dramatic results. In a
double-blind study conducted by Dawson Church, Ph.D., tapping was shown to produce,
on average, a 24 percent drop in cortisol after just one hour of tapping.
During that same hour, in a second group that used only talk therapy, participants drop in
cortisol levels was ½ of what it was with the Tapping group. That’s huge!
In addition to lowering stress in the brain and body, research has shown that acupuncture,
and potentially also acupressure, increases endorphin levels in the body.
Since tapping engages acupressure points while also lowering cortisol, tapping, like
acupuncture, may allow the body to release the endorphins that put you in a more positive
frame of mind, boost your energy, concentration and creativity, improve your sleep,
relieve physical pain, and more.
These positive changes that happen in your brain and body during tapping are part of the
body’s relaxation response. By lowering cortisol in the body, tapping sends a calming
message to the amygdala, which is part of the “primitive brain.”
This ability to communicate with the subconscious mind and the body at the same time is
part of what makes tapping so powerful for transforming deeply ingrained beliefs.
From “Getting By” To Abundance & Fulfillment
The best way to illustrate how powerful tapping is for overcoming limiting beliefs is with
stories of real people who have used tapping to transform their beliefs first, and then
28. Page 28
their finances, work, and lives.
Nancy is just one of many people who have done exactly that. When I first met her,
Nancy felt stuck. Stuck in debt, stuck in her “boom or bust” business, stuck in financial
overload and To Do list overdrive – not to mention emotional burn out.
At first all she wanted was to find a better way to “get by.”
After years of working in her own business as a sobriety coach, Nancy had achieved
what looked like success.
She’d been through “boom” times, when her income was peaking, but always, they
were followed by another “bust,” when her income dipped to a dangerously low level.
Her income would be up, then down, over and over again.
It’s a pattern so many people have experienced, and as the years go by, that financial
roller coaster ride can get pretty frustrating!
For Nancy, even the “boom” times didn’t feel good. As a sobriety coach, she would
often get called in after an intervention had been staged, and then be left to work with
clients who didn’t want her help.
Her work, business, schedule and finances – all of it was draining her of energy,
passion, creativity, and well-being.
That’s when Nancy decided to try tapping. Using my tapping exercises to quiet the
anxiety, fear and other emotions she was feeling, Nancy began to do something she’d
been too afraid to do in the past – step back and take an honest look at her career, her
finances, and her life.
It’s a practice most of us avoid when we feel powerless around our finances, work, and
success. We put blinders on, and try to keep moving forward. If we just do more, we
think, or do more faster…
What happens, though, is that by depriving ourselves of the opportunity to take an
honest look at our lives, work, and finances, we also lose out on the chance to notice
29. and transform the beliefs that shape our lives.
As Nancy shared, when she first began tapping,
“I was hoping to find a quick fix to fill the bottom layer of the monetary hole I’d been
digging for decades… My commitment to playing small was well disguised by a career
that involved celebrity clients, exciting external perks and the illusion I worked for
myself. The truth is, I had very little freedom and was exhausted from the constant
chaos, travel and toxic situations. Tapping helped me through my denial.”
Using tapping, Nancy was able to quiet her anxiety around money, work, and her future.
In that calmer mental, emotional and physical state, she realized that her belief that no
matter how hard she worked, all she could ever do was “get by,” was limiting her
experience.
That belief had made her feel anxious and hopeless, and as a result, she had
abandoned her bigger dreams.
Just two years earlier, Nancy had written a book that she knew would help people. After
finishing the book, she’d had the idea to share parts of it on social media and then run a
contest where readers get to suggest a title for the book.
After using tapping to release her anxiety and fear around putting herself and her work
“out there” in such a public way, Nancy created a website for her book and proceeded
to launch it. After two years of stalling, she did all of this in a matter of weeks.
Readers from around the world were soon suggesting titles for her book!
Using tapping, Nancy also released her shame about the debt that she’d accumulated
over many years.
Financial solutions and new sources of revenue began to appear – and more have kept
coming! Once she’d transformed her beliefs, her work, finances, and entire life
completely changed. Here’s what she had to say about it:
Page 29
30. Page 30
“For the first time in my adult life, I am optimistic about my finances… I’ve also
transformed relationships, learned to say no, set healthy boundaries and honor myself. I
have never felt more confident, free from my old “stories” or available to receive all the
good that has been flowing my way. After two decades of studying personal growth,
I can honestly say this is THE solution that changed my life.”
Are you ready to experience that same kind of transformation? Let’s start tapping!
How To Tap
One of the great things about tapping is how simple and accessible it is. It’s something
you can do at any time, in any place, and get the relief you desire.
When tapping, the best place to start is with whatever issue is bothering you most. We
call this your MPI, or “Most Pressing Issue.”
Even if your goal is to transform your beliefs around money and work, if you have a
headache, begin by tapping on your headache.
You may even discover that your headache is related to your finances, but regardless,
remember to address your MPI first.
The Tapping Points
(To get a visual perspective on how to do the Tapping, where the Tapping points are,
and how to best get results, make sure to attend one of my free webinars on “How to
Create an Abundant, Stress Free, Financial Future Faster Than You Ever Thought
Possible” by clicking here!)
The practice involves tapping on a series of points on the body while speaking your
thoughts and emotions. Let’s look first at where these points are:
31. Page 31
When you’re tapping, the more specific you can be, the better. Instead of saying,
“This headache,” you can say, “This throbbing pain in my forehead.”
Similarly, instead of saying, “This money stress,” you can say, “All the stress I’m
feeling about the bills I need to pay,” etc.
We usually begin with the Karate Chop points while repeating what’s called the Setup
Statement. We then repeat a “reminder phrase” to tap through the remaining points on
the body.
32. Page 32
Here’s how to begin tapping now:
1. Pick a target. Be very specific about what you want to work on. For instance, “The
frustration I have over this project at work.”
2. Measure your emotion or physical discomfort on a scale from 0 to 10, where 10
represents the most discomfort and 0 represents no discomfort at all.
3. You then use this to create what’s called your Setup Statement. The Setup
Statement is structured like this:
“Even though I (state the problem), I deeply and completely accept myself.”
Examples:
“Even though I have this throbbing aching pain in my lower back, I deeply and
completely accept myself.”
“Even though I’m really angry because my boss didn’t approve my idea, I deeply and
completely accept myself.”
4. Tap lightly with your fingertips on the karate chop point while you say the setup
statement three times.
5. Move to tapping through the points (illustrated above) while using the reminder
phrase. A reminder phrase contains the words you use while tapping on the points on
the face and the body. It helps you stay focused on the energy you need to clear. It’s
not about your wording; this is about being honest and feeling the emotion or pain as
you tap.
Examples:
“this throbbing back pain” or
“this frustration over not getting the promotion”
“all this anxiety over the bills I have to pay”
6. Once you’ve tapped through the points, take a deep breath in and check in to see
how you feel. On a scale of 0 to 10, how did the feelings change?
33. Page 33
7. Be persistent! Continue tapping until the intensity comes down. Often an underlying
emotion may surface. Feel free to shift the tapping to the feeling that has the strongest
charge. The key to getting results is to be very specific when you target the problem.
What Experts Are Saying About Tapping
“I love the idea that you can teach somebody to use it, and it, very often, will quickly
improve the quality of their life.” – Cheryl Richardson, NYT Best-selling author
“I think we’re all looking for something to make us feel better, but in a real way.
This isn’t just taking a pill.” – Carol Look
“It’s easily learnable and doable.” – Jack Canfield
“It is an amazing resource tool, and it should be in everyone’s first aid kit…
It is profoundly powerful. It has manifested literally miracles in my own life.” - Dr.
Joseph Mercola, Founder, Optimal Wellness Center

remarkable how these things open up and they feel a new feeling of relief, and
you see people just sort of sitting up and breathing easier…”
– Brad Yates
“EFT is, by far, the most empowering tool because you can use it yourself, you can
use it with others, but you always have it available to you once you get in the habit
of being honest and choosing where you want to go.” - Rick Wilkes
Tapping Script: Quieting The Sense of Urgency
When most people begin this process, they feel a sense of urgency about getting
results. As I did when I was in all of that debt, you probably want progress NOW.
This urgency creates stress, which, as we’ve seen, can get in your way. Let’s spend a
few minutes now tapping on letting go of this sense of urgency.
34. Page 34
To begin, think about the urgency you feel around getting results now. Give that feeling
of urgency a number on a scale of 0 – 10 here: ___
Take three deep breaths.
We’ll start by tapping three times on the Karate Chop point.
Karate Chop: Even though I feel so much urgency around getting results now, I deeply
and completely accept myself.
Karate Chop: Even though I feel so much urgency around transforming my finances
and life right now, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.
Karate Chop: Even though I feel so much urgency around transforming my finances
and life now, I love myself and accept how I feel.
Eyebrow: Feeling so much urgency around this
Side of Eye: Really need things to change
Under Eye: Really need my financial situation to transform
Under Nose: Really need my life and sense of fulfillment to improve
Under Mouth: I can’t go on like this
Collarbone: It’s been too long already
Under Arm: So much urgency around needing things to change now
Top of Head: I can’t wait any longer
Eyebrow: So much urgency around all of this
Side of Eye: Sometimes I feel panicked
Under Eye: And that makes me feel powerless
Under Nose: Like there’s nothing I can do to change things
Under Mouth: So much urgency around all of this
Collarbone: It’s really stressful
Under Arm: I don’t like feeling this way
Top of Head: This urgency and panic aren’t helping me
Eyebrow: I can let myself relax into this process
Side of Eye: I can let myself feel calmer now
35. Page 35
Under Eye: I can make more progress when I’m relaxed
Under Nose: It’s safe to feel safe
Under Mouth: Even though a lot needs to change
Collarbone: I can still let myself relax into this process
Under Arm: I can let myself relax now
Top of Head: I can trust myself to keep tapping
Eyebrow: It’s safe to feel safe
Side of Eye: It’s safe to trust this process
Under Eye: I can do it one step at a time
Under Nose: And still make big progress
Under Mouth: It’s safe to feel safe
Collarbone: It’s safe to trust this process
Under Arm: I can relax and still move foward
Top of Head: It’s safe to relax now
Eyebrow: Releasing this sense of urgency now
Side of Eye: Letting go of any remaining panic now
Under Eye: It’s safe to trust this process
Under Nose: It’s safe to feel relaxed
Under Mouth: It’s safe to feel safe now
Collarbone: Allowing my body and mind to feel relaxed now
Under Arm: Feeling calmer and more relaxed now
Top of Head: Allowing myself to relax and feel calmer now
Take three deep breaths. On a scale of 0 – 10, rate the intensity of your sense of
urgency and panic here: ___
Keep tapping until you get the relief you’re seeking.
Accepting The Negative First
As you just experienced, when tapping, we begin by focusing first on negative emotions
and limiting beliefs.
When I say this, people often worry that they’re rooting themselves in the negative when
36. Page 36
what they want to do is feel and be more positive.
As we’ve seen, however, we have to clear out the negative before we can instill the
positive.
As Louise Hay, often referred to as “the queen of affirmations,” put it during an
interview I did with her about tapping:
“If you’re going to clean a house, you have to see the dirt. If you’re going to clean
a turkey pan, if you’re going to clean the dishes, if you’re going to work on
yourself, you have to see the dirt that you’re cleaning, and then when you do
that, you can do lots of good affirmations.” – Louise Hay, NYT best-selling
author and Founder of Hay House Publishing
Tapping on the negative is a crucial part of this “cleaning” process. No amount of
positive affirmations will make the dirt in a house go away.
You need to first acknowledge the dirt, clean it up, and then move to the positive.
Once it’s gone, positive beliefs feel true rather than forced.

CHAPTER 3
How to Use Tapping to Change Your
Beliefs About Money and Success
Are you ready to begin transforming the limiting beliefs that are preventing you from
living the life you deserve?
Now that you’re aware of your limiting beliefs and you know how to tap, it’s time to begin
paving the way for financial abundance, success, and fulfillment. Let’s keep going!
To do the 2-part exercise in this chapter, you’ll need about 20 minutes of uninterrupted
time, ideally in a quiet, comfortable place where you can write, relax and tap out loud
without disrupting anyone or feeling self-conscious.
You’ll also need a pen, and quick access to the list of limiting beliefs you rated in
Chapter 1.
Exercise, Part 1: Clearing Limiting Beliefs
Let’s begin by taking a look at the list of limiting beliefs you identified in Chapter 1.
Remember, it’s completely normal to have a long list of limiting beliefs. Don’t worry
about how many you have.
Start by picking one belief that feels very true.
Write that belief here (Or on a piece of paper if you’re reading this on an electronic
device):
38. Read your belief out loud now. Rate how true it feel on a scale of 0 – 10 here: ____
Now read your belief out loud again, and this time, tune into how your body feels.
The body contains an incredible amount of information.
As we become adults, we often learn to tune it out. When we become more aware of
what is happening in the body, we can more quickly access the “primitive brain” we
discussed earlier.
That’s where our deeper emotions and beliefs are stored, so paying attention to what’s
going on in your body is a key part of the process.
If you’re not noticing any sensations in your body, that’s something! You can tap on
“nothingness” or feeling “blah” or “numb.”
As you’re tapping, don’t worry about getting anything “right.”
The tapping scripts I provide are guides that you’re welcome to use, but don’t hesitate to
substitute your own words.
It’s always best to tap on your own experience. And you can, of course, get more
direction and detail on how to tap in my webinar presentation by clicking here.
Take three deep breaths.
Start by tapping on the Karate Chop point three times:
Karate Chop: Even though this belief makes me so uncomfortable, I deeply and
completely accept myself.
Karate Chop: Even though this belief makes me uncomfortable, I can feel the
discomfort in my body, I deeply and completely accept myself.
Karate Chop: Even though looking at this belief stresses me out, I can feel the stress in
my body, I choose to relax now.
Page 38
39. Page 39
Eyebrow: I don’t want to look at this belief
Side of Eye: My body’s reacting to this belief
Under Eye: I’ve got some anxiety and stress around this belief
Under Nose: I wonder what’s going on
Under Mouth: My body feels unsettled
Collarbone: This belief
Under Arm: Looking at this belief
Top of Head: Focusing on this belief
Eyebrow: I get a little stressed
Side of Eye: Or maybe a lot stressed
Under Eye: This belief
Under Nose: Focusing on this belief
Under Mouth: And all the stress that comes with it
Collarbone: Gaining clarity on this belief
Under Arm: I wonder what’s really going on
Top of Head: I wonder what’s really going on with this belief
Eyebrow: It’s safe to get clearer about this belief
Side of Eye: It’s safe to get clearer about the emotions connected to it
Under Eye: It’s safe to gain more clarity
Under Nose: And feel the emotions that come up when I think of it
Under Mouth: Releasing all this stress
Collarbone: About looking at this belief
Under Arm: It’s safe to look at this belief
Top of Head: It’s safe to feel the emotions connected to it
Take a deep breath. How do you feel now? Did you experience a shift in your body
and/or emotions? Keep tapping if you’d like more clarity.
Describe the primary emotion you’re experiencing now:
40. Page 40
Rate the intensity of your primary emotion from 0 to 10: ___
Let’s keep tapping.
Karate Chop: Even though I feel <emotion you’re feeling> when I focus on this belief, I
deeply and completely accept myself.
Karate Chop: Even though I feel <emotion you’re feeling> when I focus on this belief, I
deeply and completely accept myself.
Karate Chop: Even though I feel <emotion you’re feeling> when I focus on this belief, I
deeply and completely accept myself.
Eyebrow: So much emotional intensity around this belief
Side of Eye: All this stress
Under Eye: It’s not comfortable feeling this
Under Nose: So stressful
Under Mouth: I don’t want to feel this
Collarbone: I don’t want to look at this
Under Arm: It’s not safe to feel this
Top of Head: I don’t like how this feels
Eyebrow: Why am I feeling this way?
Side of Eye: What’s this intensity all about?
Under Eye: When did this belief start?
Under Nose: What’s all this emotional intensity about?
Under Mouth: It’s safe to look at this
Collarbone: It’s safe to let myself feel this way
Under Arm: So much emotion around this belief
Top of Head: What’s it all about?
Eyebrow: It’s safe to feel this way
Side of Eye: I wonder where this started
Under Eye: I wonder why I’m feeling this way

41. Page 41
Collarbone: Why am I feeling so much emotional intensity around this belief?
Under Arm: What are these emotions all about?
Top of Head: When and where did it all come from?
Take a deep breath, and rate the intensity of your emotion from 0 – 10 now: ___
If you don’t yet have answers to any of the questions you asked yourself, keep tapping
until you get more clarity.
If a memory or event came to mind, describe it here:
When you think of this event or memory, how much emotional intensity do you
experience? Rate it from 0 – 10: ___
To release the emotional charge from this memory, begin tapping through the points
(you can skip the Karate Chop for this) as you tell the story of your memory out loud.
For example, if the memory is from being fired from your first job and feeling like a
failure as a result, your tapping might go something like this:
Eyebrow: I got fired
Side of Eye: I feel like a failure
Under Eye: I failed
Under Nose: “You’re fired” he said
Under Mouth: He seemed happy to be firing me
Collarbone: He wanted me to feel badly
Under Arm: I feel like such a failure
Top of Head: This memory still feels so intense
Eyebrow: “You’re fired!” he said
42. Page 42
Side of Eye: You’re fired!
Under Eye: You’re fired!
Under Nose: I feel so angry right now
Under Mouth: He didn’t have to be so heartless
Collarbone: I hate those words
Under Arm: You’re fired!
Top of Head: You’re fired!
Eyebrow: I hate those words
Side of Eye: But I also hated that job
Under Eye: And my boss was terrible
Under Nose: I hated that job
Under Mouth: You’re fired!
Collarbone: I hate those words
Under Arm: But I also hated that job
Top of Head: Maybe he did me a favor by firing me
Eyebrow: It was the wrong job for me
Side of Eye: I hated that job
Under Eye: I got fired
Under Nose: But I’m not a failure
Under Mouth: I just hated that job
Collarbone: He didn’t have to be so heartless
Under Arm: He didn’t have to be so mean
Top of Head: But getting fired doesn’t make me a failure
Eyebrow: I can let go of all of this anger around being fired
Side of Eye: And release my fear around being a failure
Under Eye: I’m not a failure
Under Nose: That was just the wrong job for me
Under Mouth: I hated that job!
Collarbone: I’m not a failure
Under Arm: Releasing all this anger, fear and sadness around getting fired now
Top of Head: Releasing it from every cell in my body now
Take a deep breath, and rate the emotional intensity of that event or memory from 0 –
10 now: ___
43. Page 43
Keep tapping until the intensity is lower, or you get the relief you’re seeking.
If An Old Belief Gets Triggered
There may be times when you think you’ve cleared a limiting belief only to realize
that something has triggered it anew. If that happens, don’t stress! Just return to
this process. There may be hidden layers you still need to release. Some beliefs
can take longer to release. The good news is, those big breakthroughs can lead
to huge transformations in your finances and your life!
Exercise, Part 2: Instilling The Positive
Once you’ve cleared the root(s) of your limiting belief, it’s time to start tapping in the
opposing positive belief.
To start, return to the original belief you focused on at the start of this chapter.
Read it aloud one more time, and rate how true it feels on a scale of 0 – 10 now: ___
If it’s still a 5 out of 10 or higher, return to the steps above to continue clearing it.
If it’s lower than a 5, write the opposing positive belief you’d like to instill below:
______________________________________________________________
Rate how true this positive belief feels now on a scale of 0 – 10: ___
Start tapping now. Beginning with the Eyebrow point (you can skip the Karate Chop
point this time), speak your positive belief out loud as you tap through the points. You
can also voice any emotions you experience as you tap.
If my positive belief were, “Success is always available to me,” my tapping might look
something like this:
44. Eyebrow: Success is always available to me
Side of Eye: I am not a failure
Under Eye: Success is always available to me
Under Nose: I can succeed at any time
Under Mouth: Success is always available to me
Collarbone: That’s exciting to think about!
Under Arm: Success is always available to me
Top of Head: I can do this!
Eyebrow: I can be successful at many of the things I do
Side of Eye: I can take action toward my dreams
Under Eye: Success is always available to me
Under Nose: I can notice my successes
Under Mouth: I can feel good about my successes
Collarbone: Success is always available to me
Under Arm: Even when everything doesn’t work perfectly
Top of Head: Success is always available to me
Eyebrow: I can celebrate all of my successes
Side of Eye: I can enjoy the little victories
Under Eye: As well as bigger ones
Under Nose: Success is always available to me
Under Mouth: It’s exciting to think about
Collarbone: It’s safe to feel this excitement
Under Arm: Allowing myself to relax into this new belief
Top of Head: Trusting that success is always available to me
When you’re done tapping, take a deep breath.
Repeat your new positive belief out loud again, and rate how true it feels on a scale
of 0 – 10: ___
In this case your number may have gone up. That’s a good thing, since you’re tapping
in a positive belief, so you want it to feel very true.
Congratulations! You have systematically tapped through your limiting belief and begun
Page 44
45. Page 45
instilling a new positive belief. That’s huge progress!
In the next chapter, you’ll see how to use this momentum to move your finances, your
work and your life forward faster than ever before.

CHAPTER 4
What To Do Next – How To Catapult
Your Results with Tapping
“Your beliefs become your thoughts.
Your thoughts become your words.
Your words become your actions.
Your actions become your habits.
Your habits become your values.
Your values become your destiny.”
- Mahatma Gandhi
I was hosting a group tapping call one evening when an attendee named Mark asked
a question. After answering it, I got curious, and asked him to talk more about what
was going on in his life.
It was clear right away that Mark was under a lot of stress. At 3 AM most mornings,
he would shoot up in bed as a painful sensation, like a bolt of electricity, raced up his
spine.
As soon as he awoke, his mind would fill with things he needed to do that day, which
prevented him from falling back to sleep.
The pain in his back would then continue radiating up and down his spine throughout
the rest of the day.
Since the best place to start with tapping is with what’s bothering you most, I began
by leading Mark through several tapping rounds on his back pain. After just a few
minutes of tapping, his back pain decreased significantly.
Excited about his pain relief, Mark then shared that he was feeling stuck, particularly
47. Page 47
around his work and finances. In addition to facing tight work deadlines, Mark knew
that he needed to deal with several important financial planning matters.
Every time he thought about them, however, he felt an overwhelming sense of dread.
As a result, he’d been unable to take action that he knew would improve his financial
situation and give him peace of mind.
Have you ever done that—avoided taking action that you KNOW will improve your
finances and your life?
When we’re blocked by limiting beliefs and negative emotions, our conscious desires
and intentions often aren’t powerful enough to move us forward.
The subconscious resistance we feel takes over, keeping us stuck in a place we don’t
want to be.
I led Mark through several rounds of tapping on his feeling of being stuck. As we were
tapping, Mark suddenly remembered an interaction he’d had with his father when he
was 18 years old. At the time Mark had just returned home from an extended trip to
Europe.
His father, an angry, abusive man who had used fear to control his two sons, walked
into Mark’s room, and without saying a word, threw a stack of credit card bills onto the
bed.
Unsure what his father’s gesture meant, Mark had spent weeks fearing for his safety.
Was his father planning on cutting him off financially? Kicking him out of the house?
Would he face physical punishment for his travel spending?
As we were tapping, Mark, who now had his own teenage boys, realized that he had
never fully released the fear he’d felt with his father all those years ago.
Since his father had never explained what his gesture had meant, Mark had spent the
many years since feeling that he was incapable of managing money. “I’m not good
with money” had become a deeply ingrained belief for Mark.
48. We did some tapping on Mark’s memory of his father, and on the anxiety and dread
he felt every time he thought about his finances and the belief “I’m not good with
money.”
At one point during our tapping, Mark’s anxiety around money turned into anger
toward his father. We tapped on that anger for several minutes, ending with a couple
of tapping rounds on releasing it.
When I paused to check in with Mark, he shared that his anger, as well as his anxiety
and dread, were nearly gone. “I actually feel like I want to go get some work done,” he
shared.
In less than twenty minutes, Mark’s entire experience had changed!
Instead of believing “I’m not good with money,” Mark realized that his money troubles
were the result of avoidance rather than an inability to handle money well.
No longer bogged down by that old, limiting belief, or the emotions it had caused, Mark
was able to take swift and effective action that brought peace of mind and set him up for
future financial reward. What a difference!
The Surprising Secret to Faster Progress
Like Nancy, who made huge strides in her life after clearing her belief about “getting by,”
when Marked cleared his “I’m not good with money” belief, he was able to make big
progress with his finances and his life.
That’s often how this process works. However ironic it may seem, the fastest way to
move toward the life you deserve is by focusing on clearing one limiting belief at a time.
By overcoming one limiting belief at a time, Mark, Nancy, and I, along with the
thousands of others I’ve worked with, have completely transformed their financial
situations by doing work we love while living lives full of abundance, meaning, purpose
and fulfillment.
It does take some commitment, though, and the more limiting beliefs you clear, the
Page 48
49. faster you can transform your life.
What are you willing to commit to?
How many limiting beliefs can you clear today?
Can you commit to clearing one limiting belief per day? Three per week?
If setting a goal like this doesn’t feel comfortable, notice how you’re feeling and tap on it!
Start with small steps, and build on them as you gain clarity and confidence. The most
important thing is to keep tapping.
The Success Mindset
A huge part of success is attached to really nurturing yourself, loving yourself, thanking
yourself, and rewarding yourself.
Some people struggle with this, worrying that accepting themselves as they are, without
money or fulfillment, means they will always be poor in these ways. But that’s not how it
works.
To move more quickly toward the abundant, fulfilling life you deserve, you need
to accept and appreciate what you have and who you are now.
The reality is, the world will reward you when you are your greatest, most authentic self.
That’s as true for your finances as it is for your sense of fulfillment.
Sure, there are people who make money being miserable, inauthentic people, but
remember that at the end of the day they’re still miserable!
What’s the point of earning more money if you’re not going to enjoy it and be happier
with it?
Money will only magnify your experience in life. You can either magnify your misery, or
give yourself more opportunity to do the things you love, and live a truly rich, meaningful
and
Page 49
50. Page 50
fulfilling life.
Success will sometimes come in small “packages,” and at other times, in bigger ones.
Celebrate all of it. Every time you tap, congratulate yourself. Every time you take action
as a result of a new, positive belief, pat yourself on the back. Notice every single victory
and success you experience, and build on each one.
If You Get Stuck
Some beliefs can be harder to transform than others. If you get stuck, try asking
yourself these questions:
•! What’s the downside of letting go of this limiting belief or emotion?
•! What would change if I didn’t have this limiting belief/feel this emotion?
•! How does this limiting belief/emotion serve me?
Your answers to these questions then become the words you say as you
tap.
You Can Do This!
Like any new exercise or skill, you need muscle memory. You need brain memory.
Whether you’re learning a new language or playing a new sport, it takes practice.
Tapping through your limiting beliefs, and the emotions and events that are attached to
them, may feel uncomfortable at first. If change scares you, know that’s normal—and
then tap on it!
There may be times when you’re not in the mood to do your tapping, times when you
feel like you can’t spare the time. Tap on it!
Just imagine how amazing it will be to wake up a few months or a year from now, and
be living an entirely new life full of financial abundance and personal fulfillment, doing
work you love with people you enjoy being with… just imagine how THAT will feel.
