Money Power


Are you making the amount of money you would like to make? Have you decided how much money you would like to create? If you are not making the amount of money you would like to make it is only because you haven’t directed your subconscious mind to bring you exactly how much you want. You haven’t given it the right instructions.

Yes, until we tell ourselves that we want to create abundance, we stay mired in a consciousness of struggle, poverty, pain and lack. As long as we remain focused on how much we don’t have, as long as we think about how little we have, as long as we believe that it is difficult to make money, we cannot create the life of our dreams.

Our limiting beliefs are the blocks on our path that hold us back; that prevent us from making more money and having more abundance. These beliefs keep telling our subconscious that we don’t want to make more money or we don’t know how to make more money; or what exactly to do to become abundant. They create confusion inside us and don’t let us make right choices.

Our negative self-talk makes everything just worse. Whatever we try doesn’t work because it can’t work as long as we stay in a lack-mentality.

If you wish to end this struggle and create more wealth, you will need to remove your belief- blocks. You will need to give new instructions to your subconscious mind. You will need to make right choices. Here is how you can go about it:

  • ·         Decide how much money you want to make. Be very specific; give clear instructions to your subconscious mind. Think about having as much money as you need or want.

·         Get rid of all the negative thoughts you have about money and moneyed people. Do not worry about money. Don’t speak about lack of money, financial hardships or troubles. Do not listen to pessimistic talks. Do not pay attention to stories of corruption or scams. Do not talk about people making money in dishonest ways. Do not criticize and condemn those who have more money than you. Put all such thoughts out of your mind.
   
·         Start living as though you are already wealthy; doing things you would do when you have a certain level of abundance. It doesn’t mean that you spend money beyond your means; it simply means that you spend it in a way that makes you happy.

·         Be grateful for all the money that you have. Know that it is just a source of energy. Spend it without any fear or attachment.  Let it go easily and freely, with love and respect. Bless it and ask it to bless everyone who touches it.

·         Speak to your notes and coins. Tell them to go out, expand, and return back to you to get you more services.

·         Spend money on doing fun things. Enjoy spending it. 

·         Choose to buy the best quality products for yourself. You may have fewer things but they should be of a good quality.

·         Don’t make a buying decision based on not having enough money. Don’t always look for bargains. Don’t haggle over price of goods.

·         Focus only on the positive growth. Pay attention to abundance, peace and prosperity wherever you see it. When you see a successful or wealthy person, silently bless him and wish him well. Bless fancy cars, big homes, smart restaurants, swanky showrooms etc. Rejoice in others’ prosperity.

·         Increase your abundance quotient by letting go of judgment, criticism, blame and envy. It is not easy, but it can be done. Shift from a complaining and grumbling mode to a satisfied and thankful mode.

·         Whatever you wish for yourself, wish the same for others. If you want abundance, pray for abundance for others.

·         Accept the present moment completely, without any judgment.

·         Accept gifts, compliments or whatever graciously.  

·         While giving anything to anyone, give with the thought of increase. Do every action with an intention of giving more to all.

·         Do not look at someone and feel that he is lesser than you and you have to make him okay. Do not pity the poor; bless them riches. Remember, pity, sympathy and sorrow are as contagious as hope, expectation, and inspiration; spread the latter.

Affirm abundance
You can choose any affirmation which resonates with you and repeat it several times a day.

·         My cash in-flow far exceeds my expenses.
·         I am creating opportunities to generate money.
·         I am willing to make a quantum leap.
·         I always have more than enough money for all my needs.
·          I choose to circulate wealth.
·         I am willing to embrace abundance.
·         What I want for myself, I want for everyone else.
·         I can afford all that I need.
·          Money constantly circulates in my life. I use it wisely, judiciously, and constructively. I spend it in joy and it comes back to me multiplied through multiple channels.
·         I have the right to be abundant, happy and successful. 
·         I am grateful for the richness of my life.
·         Money allows me the freedom to do all the things that I want to do.

Tune into natural abundance

Whenever you see natural abundance, affirm it to stay in its flow. For example, if you are walking in bright sun, affirm, “Natural abundance is shining upon me.” If it is raining, say, “Natural abundance is pouring upon me.” If it is windy, say, “Natural abundance is blowing upon me.” Always acknowledge abundance, to stay in abundance consciousness.

Demand abundance

Look into your eyes in a mirror and say aloud, “I demand abundance, right now.”

Money cycle

Whenever you receive or give any money, hold it in your hands for a minute and pour the vibration of love into it, by projecting loving thoughts. This infusion of love will shift its energy signature. Now the money will go back into circulation radiating love with each financial transaction.

Every time you spend money, say, “There is more where this comes from.”

Transformation


In order to experience transformation in our life, we have to take three important steps; viz., Awareness, Acceptance, and Action.

Awareness

We all know that our thoughts create our reality and yet, we can’t let go of the thoughts which create the problems in our life. The primary reason for this inability is a lack of awareness of our ‘subtle’ distorted thinking patterns. Here I have enumerated various such patterns; as you read through them, identify your personal patterns, remembering that you may carry more than one pattern.

  I pay undue attention to the negative details of my life. I magnify all the negative aspects of a given situation while filtering out its positive aspects. I pull negative things out of the context, isolate them from all my good experiences, and make them more awful than they actually are.
·         I look at things as good or bad; black or white; and perceive everything at its extreme, without leaving any room for the middle ground. This polarized thinking makes me judgmental; especially about myself. For example, if I am not perfect I must be a failure.

·        I over-generalize and come to a general conclusion based upon a single incident or a single piece of evidence. If something bad happens once, I ‘expect’ it to happen again and again. I often use words like ‘always’ and ‘never’ to make a point. I cannot take any risks in life and am afraid of failure.

·         I can read other people’s minds. I know what others are feeling and why they act the way they do. I remain certain of what others are feeling towards me.

·         I expect disaster. I notice or hear about a problem and start thinking, “What if that happens to me? What if such a tragedy strikes in my life? Etc.” There are no limits to my fertile, catastrophic imagination. I do not trust enough and feel incapable of changing.

·         I have a tendency to relate everything around me to myself. I think that everything people say or do in my presence is some kind of a reaction to me. I keep comparing myself with others, trying to determine who is smarter, better looking etc. I do not believe in my own worth. I keep testing my value as a person by measuring myself against others. If I fare better, I feel a temporary high. If I fare poorly, I feel horrible. I interpret each experience, each conversation and each look to determine my value and worth.

·         I feel that I am controlled by external factors; a helpless victim of fate. I remain stuck and feel unable to change my life, let alone make a difference in the world.

·         I feel responsible for the pain and happiness of everyone around me. This leaves me exhausted as I attempt to fulfill everyone’s needs. I feel guilty when I can’t shoulder my responsibilities to the utmost.

·         I feel resentful because life is not fair. I tend to get locked into my own point of view, and often wonder how wonderful things would be if only people were fair to me or truly valued me. I end up causing a lot of pain to myself and my resentment keeps growing.

·         I make other people responsible for my choices and decisions. I also blame them for my problems. I do not take self-responsibility to assert my needs, say no, or do what I wish to do.

·          I blame myself for every problem and feel guilty about other’s pain.

·         I have a list of rules about how I and other people should behave. If others break these rules I get angry and if I violate the rules, I feel guilty. I am always either judging or finding faults in everything, including myself. I often use words like ‘should’, ‘ought’, or ‘must’ etc.

·         I think that what I believe is true. If I feel stupid, I must be stupid. If I feel guilty, I must have done something wrong. I let my emotions interact and correlate with my thinking process.

·         I expect other people to change to suit my needs. I know that I can do it if I pressure or cajole them enough.  My happiness depends upon changing other people.

·       I focus upon one or two qualities in myself or others and create stereotyped uni-dimensional labeling. I usually label everything and everyone to know where I stand and where others stand.

·         I always want to be proven right. I continually try to prove that my opinions and actions are right. I can’t think of being wrong and can go to any lengths to prove my rightness. I always defend my own opinion and do not pay enough attention to other’s opinions. Being right is more important to me than cultivating relationships.
·         I think that God is keeping a score of all my sacrifices and self-denial and one day it will pay off.  I feel bitter when the expected awards don’t come.

Acceptance

Once we become ‘aware’ of our thought patterns, we must ‘accept’ them. Unless we accept ourselves exactly as we are, we cannot take the necessary steps to change ourselves. The acceptance process is very easy. All you have to say is, “I accept myself exactly as I am.” Repeat this affirmation as often as you can.

Action

And then comes the ‘action’ time. It is surprising how a simple affirmation repeated loudly and often can change our entire life. This magic affirmation is, “I choose to think positive and creative thoughts. I choose to speak positive and creative words. I choose to perform positive and creative actions.”

 Take these three steps in good faith and get ready for transformation……………forever and ever….:))
