exercise 2

Read the text. Put the pieces of advice after the correct problem.
What emotions are to blame for your financial problems?
You can be excited about your future life without financial problems, but your dreams can be broken by your own emotions. People usually cannot figure out how their emotions connect with their money, don’t be shocked, if you understand this connection, you can get rid of it.
Your family attitude towards money influences you a lot. If talking about money made your family feel frustrated, depressed or nervous, it can have a negative influence on your relationship with money. Person from such family can feel stressed each time he has to plan his budget. He is afraid of conflicts and quarrels and it makes him more worried than financial planning.
What can you do?
Separate your personal emotions from the emotions of your family. How do you feel at the moment about money? It always happens that actually adults feel calm and relaxed about budget-planning; however, often confuse their real feelings with emotions from their childhood.
Money and food can be used as a treatment when you feel upset or lonely. Unnecessary things can make you feel more confident and satisfied as in the situation when you eat up unpleasant emotions. There can be expensive things which give a feeling of self-confidence and temporary emotional boost that vanish very fast and leave you disappointed and disgusted about yourself for waste of money.
What can you do?
When you want to buy something unplanned, try to notice your emotional state. If you feel upset and frustrated, likely, you need those purchases to relieve stress and feel better.
Money and hurt usually go together. It is a well known truth that money is a tool for self-affirmation in our society. If a person is from a family where never enough money was or he didn’t get enough money to be satisfied with, it can be that now such person feels hurt about money and all situations connected with finances.
Hurt can make you feel embarrassed about how much money you have or jealous about other person’s income. Also you can be too proud to ask for financial advice and never feel relieved in money questions. All of these can stop you from obtaining healthy money habits.
What can you do?
Remember if you ever felt hurt about money. If you did, you should reconsider your attitude towards money. Even if something truly unfair happened connected with money, this feeling of hurt makes obstacles for you only and nobody else.
Money is the way of showing love – it is one of the mistakes that can ruin not only your budget but also your relationship.
If you think that love is measuring by money you spend on a person – it is a serious problem. Real idea of love is substituted by money and useless expensive gifts. Presents are important part of every relationship; however, you shouldn’t buy them for the last money you have. It means that you don’t show love but try to affirm yourself in person’s eyes. Besides, if your partner knows your real financial situation but still accepts your gifts, you should be curious about their real feelings.
What can you do?
Presents are great, but there are lots of other ways to show love and affection. Try to substitute expensive gifts with more valuable care and attention, especially if you have financial problems.
Finally, remember: emotions control our lives and can ruin all your plans if you don’t have positive attitude. So, to be not confused, before you start developing your financial situation, deal with your hidden feelings and emotions.

Money and hurt usually go together. It is a well known truth that money is a tool for self-affirmation in our society. If a person is from a family where never enough money was or he didn’t get enough money to be satisfied with, it can be that now such person feels hurt about money and all situations connected with finances.
Hurt can make you feel embarrassed about how much money you have or jealous about other person’s income. Also you can be too proud to ask for financial advice and never feel relieved in money questions. All of these can stop you from obtaining healthy money habits.
What can you do?
Remember if you ever felt hurt about money. If you did, you should reconsider your attitude towards money. Even if something truly unfair happened connected with money, this feeling of hurt makes obstacles for you only and nobody else.
Money is the way of showing love – it is one of the mistakes that can ruin not only your budget but also your relationship.
If you think that love is measuring by money you spend on a person – it is a serious problem. Real idea of love is substituted by money and useless expensive gifts. Presents are important part of every relationship; however, you shouldn’t buy them for the last money you have. It means that you don’t show love but try to affirm yourself in person’s eyes. Besides, if your partner knows your real financial situation but still accepts your gifts, you should be curious about their real feelings.
What can you do?
Presents are great, but there are lots of other ways to show love and affection. Try to substitute expensive gifts with more valuable care and attention, especially if you have financial problems.
Finally, remember: emotions control our lives and can ruin all your plans if you don’t have positive attitude. So, to be not confused, before you start developing your financial situation, deal with your hidden feelings and emotions.
