Breaking Old Money Patterns: How a New Year Can Change the Way You Think About Money
Iamgr8 Academy 
Every year, many people promise themselves that “this year will be different” financially. Yet despite effort and intention, familiar patterns often return.
The issue isn’t discipline. It’s unconscious habit.
Understanding Money Patterns
Money patterns are behaviours learned over time and often shaped by upbringing, environment, and experience. They influence how you:
- Spend
- Save
- Avoid
- Take risks
- Respond to financial stress
Without awareness, these patterns quietly repeat.
Why Willpower Isn’t Enough
Willpower fades when life becomes busy or uncertain. Sustainable financial change requires understanding, not force.
That’s why money mindset coaching focuses on:
- Awareness before action
- Consistency over intensity
- Support rather than self-criticism
The Emotional Side of Money
Money often carries emotion, fear, guilt, pressure, comparison. Ignoring this emotional layer makes financial growth harder than it needs to be.
When emotions are acknowledged, decisions become calmer and more considered.
A New Approach for the New Year
The New Year, New Money event on 30th January is designed to interrupt old cycles before they take hold.
It offers:
- Insight into common money patterns
- Tools to reframe unhelpful beliefs
- Space to reset intentions for the year ahead
Rather than starting the year reacting, you begin responding with clarity.
Building New Patterns Through Support
Breaking old habits is easier with guidance and accountability. The IamGR8 Academy provides ongoing coaching to help embed healthier money behaviours over time.
This isn’t about perfection, it’s about progress.
Change the Pattern, Change the Outcome
Financial freedom begins when patterns change. The new year is your opportunity to do just that.
