دانلود کتاب Our Money Ourselves: Redesigning Your Relationship with Money

OUR MONEY, OUR SELVES Redesigning Your Relationship with Money "I'm no good with figures." "I'm bored by talk of money." "I'm embarrassed to ask for the salary I (probably) deserve." "I'm a widow and I don't know anything about my own money." A surprising number of women have a poor relationship with money. They may be afraid of it, refuse to deal with it, give it away unwisely, sacrifice their own needs for others -- or even go in the opposite direction, and spend it wildly. Why is this? According to the authors of this breakthrough book, our families, society, and even financial advisors send women negative messages about money. Some of these messages are blatant: "It's unladylike to get involved with finances." Others are unconscious messages, such as the daughter who observes her mother wearing old clothes, while her brother gets new shoes every time he asks. Filled with interactive exercises, self-quizzes, and a "genogram" to fill out, the book is do-it-yourself therapy that helps women: ** trace how family attitudes have negatively influenced their feelings about money, self-esteem, and value ** understand money as a form of energy that actually has an important spiritual dimension ** redefine the way they think and feel about money. Now, women can create a positive relationship with money and use it as a tool for personal and professional growth.
