Money Beliefs
Positive Belief About Money
Our body and minds are stronger and more complexed than most people realize. We are capable of much more. People place too many limits on what they can do. Learning to believe in yourself and your abilities is a hard job that never ends. Although, it does get easier with time. You need to start pushing yourself. Attempting things that are just outside your ability. I know, your saying to yourself, "I push myself," or "I do my best," but I am still struggling with money issues, then you are still stuck in the old belief pattern.
You have to believe you can go past your limits. By putting in the time and effort you WILL succeed. You have abundance. As you succeed, your confidence will grow. One of the best things about expanding your limits, is that things that used to be impossible, or out of reach or due to financial woes, can now be apart of your everyday life! By building the belief in your ability, you can accomplish anything in life.
Visualize a Sea of Abundance
As you are able to truly conceive of more, more will come into your life. Visualization is a brilliant tool. Meditate on your abundance. Meditation: is a time-honored technique that can take you into infinite dimensions of consciousness. It is a simple effort that becomes effortless as we do it more and more. One major principle to meditation is in the ability to completely quiet your mind.
Meditation helps us live a healthier, less stressful life. The physical and psychological benefits are wonderful. The Universe can only distribute to you what you have in your consciousness and you can ALWAYS create more in your consciousness. The practice of meditation helps us temporarily let the physical world go so that we can begin to see ourselves as we truly are spiritually enlightened beings.
Gaining Abundance through Giving
like everything else in life, money ebbs and flows. Giving is the natural process that leads to the flow of receiving. Allowing yourself to "let go" and to give freely, creates more abundance than you can imagine. Holding and hording only halts the flow of energetic thought and therefore, the flowing of abundance.
Allow Yourself Pleasure
Give yourself pleasure with your money. You truly deserve it and if you don’t think so, you need to go back and re-evaluate as to why you don’t think you deserve it. Enjoy the spending of money. What old belief is stopping you? Change it!
Pay Your Bills With Great Thanks
if you feel resentment every time you have to pay a bill, the money will come back to you even slower. If you pay with love and joyfulness, you open the free flowing channel of abundance. Remember, a bill is an acknowledgment of your ability to pay. Some one gives you the product or the service first, entrusting you for good reason; that you are able, capable and a dependable person. So pay each bill with thanks and appreciation.
Make Room for Money
Cluttered space means a cluttered mind. Remove everything in your life that you do not absolutely LOVE. Making order out of chaos is the natural way of the Universe. Clutter means confusion and the fact that you do not have a handle on things. Money is one of those things. It is a hard concept to accept, but you will see, that once you clear the clutter, you open yourself and your environment up for new change.
Enough, Not More
Insatiability is the glutinous act of never having enough, never content with what you are given. We often buy what we don’t need or want, but believe we should have it, as opposed to looking at what we really want and then moving toward it. The constant desire for more is not only damaging to us personally, but feeds into a greater belief that there is never enough to go around. Money is only a means of exchange. That is all.
The Metaphysics of Money
"Traditionally, metaphysics refers to the branch of philosophy that attempts to understand the fundamental nature of all reality, whether visible or invisible. It seeks a description so basic, so essentially simple, so all-inclusive that it applies to everything, whether divine or human or anything else. It attempts to tell what anything must be like in order to be at all. The term metaphysics originally referred to the writings of Aristotle that came after his writings on physics, in the arrangement made by Andronicus of Rhodes about three centuries after Aristotle's death".
The Metaphysics of Money can be explained as EMOTIONAL CURRENCY! Our belief system has much to do with money surrounding it. We each carry our own emotional, psychological and symbolic ideas when it come to money. Belief is one of our most powerful assets or one of our most destructive foes. With the ability to believe good things about money, you can accomplish nearly anything! The more you believe in yourself, the more you will definitely become accomplished. Almost every decision we make, and so much of our personalities is formed in some way, shape or form by our beliefs around money.
Abundance comes to those who MAKE ROOM FOR IT and for those WHO HAVE A POSITIVE BELIEF ABOUT MONEY! It's just as simple as that. When we face situations that are near physical or mental impossibilities, then it is our belief system, or belief in ourselves, that determines IF it is possible.
* Our Belief System is one of the major factors that can get us through situations or can cause our life to crumble around us! How we "program" ourselves to see what our abundance is, shows us just how wealthy we are.
* Our self-confidence and self-love are often the key to opening and strengthening this portion of our thoughts which in turn emanates from ourselves, which in turn allows abundance to find us!
* Energy follows thought. Program thought to be positive and your energy will reflect it!
* Really appreciating what we DO have as opposed to what we would like to have, sometimes makes a signifcant difference. This is always an important element in a wealthy person that is often neglected.

The world is an abundant place and your natural state is one of abundance.
When you are living in abundance you are connected to the flow of life. That's the way life is meant to be. As you move towards enlightenment (go through a process of self development) you are opening your self to the free flow of energy. Your life becomes abundant.
Abundance means having plenty. Plenty of whatever you want. This is not to be confused with having just enough, which is a lesser state of being. Having plenty means having a reserve.
Money is only energy its not good or bad it is neutral. It has the value that you or society attributes to it. It's a very easy to use exchange medium and if you are living in western society you cannot survive without it. If you have more money you have more choice in life and do not need to concern yourself with issues of survival. This leaves you room to pursue other issues such as your personal growth.
Money is directly linked to how well you tap into the spiritual energy of the universe. If you are poor this is often a sign that you are have a block in this area. The block is related your self worth & lack of spirituality. That doesn't mean all rich people are spiritual and have high self worth but when you are poor it certainly shows that you are detached from the flow of life. Remember that there is no direct link with your self worth and the exact number of dollars you have. It's an issue of abundance vs. lack.
Don't fall into the trap of neglecting money matters on the pretence that money is not spiritual. People who have money are in a much better position than the rest of the population to help others. Just look at how much money some of the worlds richest people donate to charity. On this page you will find a range of articles about money, wealth and abundance which will help you understand the concept. When you understand the concept behind something the action required becomes easy.
If you think that you should abandon your possessions and money to somehow become better or to find your spiritual side, then let me tell you that's just a complete load of crap. To walk the spiritual path and move towards enlightenment you need to be detached from the emotions that link you to needing money and possessions.

Dr. Wayne Dyer - 20 Abundance & Prosperity Quotes
1. "There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there's only scarcity of resolve to make it happen."
2. "Abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into."
3. "There is no way to prosperity, prosperity is the way."
4. "Within you is the divine capacity to manifest and attract all that you need or desire."
5. "We are Divine enough to ask and we are important enough to receive."
6. "You are always a valuable, worthwhile human being, not because anybody says so, not because you're successful, not because you make a lot of money, but because you decide to believe it and for no other reason."
7. "When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous."
8. "The measure of your life will not be in what you accumulate, but in what you give away."
9. "Successful people make money. It's not that people who make money become successful, but that successful people attract money. They bring success to what they do."
10. "Self-worth comes from one thing -- thinking that you are worthy."
11. "Prosperity in the form of wealth works exactly the same as everything else. You will see it coming into your life when you are unattached to needing it. "
12. "Our intention creates our reality."
13. "Love what you do."
14. "Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life."
15. "It's never crowded along the extra mile."
16. "I will grow. I will become something new and grand, but no grander than I now am. Just as the sky will be different in a few hours, its present perfection and completeness is not deficient, so am I presently perfect and not deficient because I will be different tomorrow. I will grow and I am not deficient."
17. "Heaven on Earth is a choice you must make, not a place we must find."
18. "A non-doer is very often a critic-that is, someone who sits back and watches doers, and then waxes philosophically about how the doers are doing. It's easy to be a critic, but being a doer requires effort, risk, and change."
19. "Anything that has been accomplished by any other human being in the physical realm is within the field of possibility."
20. "Anything you really want, you can attain, if you really go after it."
All of the above excerpts are credited to Dr. Wayne Dyer.

Wealth Building Tips
Experiencing a life of effortless wealth, total financial freedom and outstanding success is available to everyone - even YOU - but you have to know the secrets! Here are 10 from the International Bestseller How to Be Wildly Wealthy FAST - make them a part of your daily experience and you'll begin to see more money, riches, wealth and abundance in your life than ever through possible!
1. Create a Millionaire Mindset
You will create more of whatever you focus on consistently. If you desire to become Wealthy and Abundant - you must THINK like the Wealthy and dream Abundant thoughts. Once you have conditioned your mind to focus on Riches, Abundance and Prosperity MORE than poverty, lack and limitation - that's when MORE Money will begin to flow into your life!
2. Know what your Money is doing
If you haven’t mastered this one, you could seriously be strangling your flow of Abundance. If you spend recklessly, don't pay bills on time, have no idea what money comes in and what goes out, on a subconscious level you could actually be repelling Wealth. You may be pushing it out of your experience because deep inside, you realise you wouldn’t know how to handle more money even if you had it. You will be amazed at how you ‘magically’ tap into MORE Prosperity when you become a master at managing your Money!
3. Constantly see the money already in the Bank
Visualising the Riches you desire in your life will accelerate the money into your experience at lightening speed. See yourself in your minds eye already using the things you bought with your mountains of money, living in the house you built with your wildly wonderful wealth, driving the car you purchased with your cash. Enjoy this one – add those delicious feelings of love, satisfaction and gratitude at the same time as you see your picture of wealth for even faster results.
4. Be consistently grateful for your Abundant Riches
Gratitude is one of the most powerful, yet underestimated prosperity tricks you can use. The more you are grateful for – the more will be given to you for you to be grateful for. This is a challenging concept if you are currently experiencing financial or personal hardship – but it’s well worth it. At the end of each day, write down at least 5 things you are grateful for – anything at all – the sunshine on the water, the birds singing in the trees, a cuddle from your children, the fact that the day is over and it’s time for bed (when I first began studying prosperity I had to use that one on a number of occasions!). Do this consistently for the next 60 days and be amazed at the abundance that begins to flow into your life.
5. Do something that makes you feel Rich
Whether you can afford to do this on a daily, weekly or monthly basis, just make sure that you consistently do something that you KNOW rich people do! Have a massage, buy fresh flowers, go to a day spa, hire a Porsche, go to a restaurant and don’t even look at the prices, have someone come in and clean your house, take your best friends out to lunch. Or do something that is FREE – pick a bunch of flowers, take a picnic to the beach at sunset, go for a drive in an expensive estate and imagine which house you now own. Whatever it is for you – just DO it! The more you practice this feeling rich, the faster it becomes a part of you. Just a quick note – do NOT go into debt to practice this one, make sure you spend only what you have in cash.
6. Create a space for your Prosperity
This one is EASY! The Universe abhors a vacuum. Create a space for your prosperity and it will be filled. Get rid of the clutter in your life – the books you don’t read, the paperwork in your drawers, the old clothes that don’t fit, the boxes of junk in the garage. When you clean out the old, you make room for the new – so start creating that space for abundance today.
7. Laugh and have fun
I’m serious! One of the most important things you can do on a daily basis to move easily and effortlessly into the flow of prosperity is laugh. Having fun moves your energy into a place of attraction – use this time wisely to attract to you the prosperity you desire. When you are playing with your children, watching a funny movie, spending time with your friends, laughing loudly at a joke – just for a few seconds while you’re in that fabulously funny space, imagine yourself as a multi-millionaire, feel the feelings you would feel knowing that you now have more money than you could ever spend, and feel SO GOOD about it.
8. Celebrate your Wealth
Do something grand or do it small, but celebrate today! Have a Prosperity party and invite your friends around complete with tuxedoes, ball gowns and waiters. Everyone (even the not so rich) must pretend for the evening that they have over $50,000,000 net worth and chat about which jet they are taking on their next overseas jaunt, what luxury car they are driving or the spending sprees they are planning. If that’s out of your price (and comfort) range – gather a group of friends and sing ‘Money, Money, Money’ at the top of your lungs as you dance around the house.
Maybe you’d prefer to sprinkle 100-dollar bills and rose petals over your bed and roll around joyously with your lover. And make it a habit to shout thank you to the Universe every single time more prosperity flows your way – whether that’s finding 1c on the street, an unexpected $100 in the mail or a $10,000 windfall – celebrate it all!
9. Share your good fortune
Tithing is an age-old secret that Millionaires have known about forever! Plus, they didn’t wait until they were rich to begin tithing, they did it before, during and after they accumulated their wealth. Universal Law states that the more you give of something, the more you receive. If you want more smiles, give more smiles, if you want more love, give more love – if you want more money give more money.
Generally tithing means to give 10% of all you make back to the person, place or institution who feeds you spiritually or empowers you to be your best. Having said that – don’t get too hung up on where the money goes, just GIVE! Whenever you do give money to others, bless it and expect it’s ten fold return back to you – you will be amazed at the abundance that pours into your life.
10. Prosperity is more than just masses of money, outrageous riches and Avalanches of Abundance
Wealth building is worthless if you don’t have your health, loved ones in your life and something to do each day that makes your heart sing. On the other hand, if you’re continually struggling financially, it certainly takes the shine off all other areas of your life. Why not have it all? It really IS possible. How would you feel if you could spend each day with friends that inspire and uplift you? Only work because you love what you do. Be able to spend your time doing what you choose and when you choose and continue to experience greater and greater levels of abundance, wealth and prosperity year after year.
When you continually and persistently create a Millionaire Mindset, manage your money wisely, visualize yourself as wealthy, are grateful for the richness already in your life, feel abundant, clean up your clutter, laugh, celebrate and share your wealth - you will unleash such a flow of prosperity in your life - you will finally believe you CAN Create Outrageous Riches, Plentiful Prosperity, Wildly Wonderful Wealth, Fabulous Financial Freedom and Mountains of Money NOW!

Everyone (even the not so rich) must pretend for the evening that they have over $50,000,000 net worth and chat about which jet they are taking on their next overseas jaunt, what luxury car they are driving or the spending sprees they are planning. If that’s out of your price (and comfort) range – gather a group of friends and sing ‘Money, Money, Money’ at the top of your lungs as you dance around the house.
Maybe you’d prefer to sprinkle 100-dollar bills and rose petals over your bed and roll around joyously with your lover. And make it a habit to shout thank you to the Universe every single time more prosperity flows your way – whether that’s finding 1c on the street, an unexpected $100 in the mail or a $10,000 windfall – celebrate it all!
9. Share your good fortune
Tithing is an age-old secret that Millionaires have known about forever! Plus, they didn’t wait until they were rich to begin tithing, they did it before, during and after they accumulated their wealth. Universal Law states that the more you give of something, the more you receive. If you want more smiles, give more smiles, if you want more love, give more love – if you want more money give more money.
Generally tithing means to give 10% of all you make back to the person, place or institution who feeds you spiritually or empowers you to be your best. Having said that – don’t get too hung up on where the money goes, just GIVE! Whenever you do give money to others, bless it and expect it’s ten fold return back to you – you will be amazed at the abundance that pours into your life.
10. Prosperity is more than just masses of money, outrageous riches and Avalanches of Abundance
Wealth building is worthless if you don’t have your health, loved ones in your life and something to do each day that makes your heart sing. On the other hand, if you’re continually struggling financially, it certainly takes the shine off all other areas of your life. Why not have it all? It really IS possible. How would you feel if you could spend each day with friends that inspire and uplift you? Only work because you love what you do. Be able to spend your time doing what you choose and when you choose and continue to experience greater and greater levels of abundance, wealth and prosperity year after year.
When you continually and persistently create a Millionaire Mindset, manage your money wisely, visualize yourself as wealthy, are grateful for the richness already in your life, feel abundant, clean up your clutter, laugh, celebrate and share your wealth - you will unleash such a flow of prosperity in your life - you will finally believe you CAN Create Outrageous Riches, Plentiful Prosperity, Wildly Wonderful Wealth, Fabulous Financial Freedom and Mountains of Money NOW!

What are the best ways to make money?
If you answered, “a jobâ€, then you have been brainwashed like most Americans into believe that working for a company is the best way to make money. It is absolutely NOT one of the best ways to make money. Why not?
Most jobs have the following problems:
1. The time trap. You are trading your time for money. Even if you are a salaried employee, you are accepting a salary for a set number of hours that you will work each week. If you don’t work, you don’t get paid. Most companies want you to work the most amount of time for the least money and you want to work the least amount of time for the most money. The job game is a lose-lose game.
2. No passive income. If you stop working for any period of time, you stop receiving paychecks. Your money doesn’t work for you.
3. No intellectual capital. If you are an employee, your company owns your intellectual capital. It’s like your company owns your brain. You cannot sell or share your ideas and earn money.
4. No control. You have no control over your work life and therefore your life. You cannot choose where you work, when you work, or who you work with. Most companies require a lot of “face timeâ€. Even if you could get your work done in 4 hours each day, you usually need to spend 8-10 hours onsite to prove that you are a “loyal employeeâ€.
You have no control over most of the decisions that are being made at your company. Bad decisions made by others could put your company out of business and then you get “downsized†or “rightsized†or simply laid-off.
5. No leverage. Entertainers and professional athletes make lots and lots of money because they have leverage. Millions of people watch them. They can make one movie or play one game a week and make buckets of money because they are reaching a huge audience with a few hours of their time.
In a job, your efforts reach a limited audience. You cannot give a speech to your department and record it and then turn it into a teleclass that you sell over and over again on your website. You have no leverage.

Creating Wealth
The 8 Myths About Creating Wealth
You have probably read or heard about various myths (these are the truths that are valid only for certain cases, but not in general) surrounding wealth and wealthy people, all of which hinder your quest for financial independence. Here are the most common and most destructive:
Myth No. 1: How much you earn depends on how hard you work
If this were true, then the physical, blue-collar workers, who have been working hard for years, would have been the wealthiest people on earth. Of course, this isn't true. They form most of the workforce and the vast majority of the middle-class.
If you witnessed your parents coming home tired from a long day's work in your youth, you probably learned that money wasn't a sufficient reward for all that effort. People who work "just" for the money often have debts because they comfort themselves with whatever they can buy, beautiful things they lack when working.
Myth No. 2: Being paid for something you enjoy isn't work and you shouldn't ask for money for doing something that is enjoyable.
Check this with millionaires. They all have so much money that they don't need to work anymore. Nevertheless, they work for other reasons, challenge, satisfaction, fullness of life, activity, fun ... and all are connected to a love for their work. If there was no joy in doing a certain task, they would do something else that would make them much happier and that enables them to realize their dreams.
In fact, if you don't enjoy your work, you will never become wealthy doing it! However, just because you enjoy your work doesn't mean you shouldn't get paid for it - in fact, that is the ultimate goal, to get paid for what you already enjoy so it never feels like you are at work!
Myth No. 3: You need to be in the right line of business to amass wealth
Do you think so? This must mean that all the people who are involved in the same business are millionaires. Of course, this isn't true. In each business there are winners and losers; winners abound, even in businesses that consist of distasteful (to most) or "impossible" work like sweeping the streets, collecting the trash, working in a factory, pumping gas, selling newspapers, etc. On the other hand, there are just as many "losers" in businesses like selling real estate, management or being a stockbroker.
Myth No. 4: You need the right education to make a fortune
Are the most educated people really the wealthiest? Not at all! In this case, university professors would be the wealthiest people on earth. Ask them about their salaries, if you get the opportunity. The truth is vastly different - the wealthiest people are those who can convert their knowledge (or education) into money, in the best possible way. They can be highly educated people (like inventors, scientists, etc.) or almost ignorant.
Being formally uneducated does not equate to poor performance on the job or the inability to form a strong enough vision to carry a person to success - they can easily be experts without having a formal education.
Myth No. 5: It used to be easier
Statistics show an increase in the number of millionaires in the world every year. Talking about the "good old times" only offers comfort and a convenient excuse. If you look around, you'll see there are people who behaved the same way in the "good old times" as they do now, yet their success has been recent. With technology and progress come new ideas, desires and needs and there are more business opportunities appearing daily to serve them.
Myth No. 6: I'm too old (young)
If you research the life stories of some of the most successful people, you'll see that this isn't true at all. Some became wealthy early in their lives (perhaps from the stock market), while others found their fortune in their old age. Ray Kroc, was more than fifty years old when he bought and made the first McDonald's.
Myth No. 7: I don't have enough money to start. You have to spend money to make money.
This is no different from any other excuse or "myth." Like the others, it's obvious this one isn't true either. Many have made their fortunes starting from scratch, living in an apartment or working out of their garage and yet, they developed business empires that are worth billions of dollars today. The other elements of success are far more important than having seed money to start a business.
But yes, often money helps and it certainly doesn't hurt. Like everything else discussed in other myths: it probably helps, but it is not always necessary.
Myth No. 8: I'll begin when I know everything
Do you believe that you will know everything someday? Or even that you'll know enough to ever be "really prepared now?" The more you learn, the more you see what you still need to learn. Success and obtaining wealth is a dynamic process. Even if you "could" come out of the gate knowing everything there is to know, some of those elements will change immediately and many will change rapidly. If you don't decide now, nothing will happen. Live and learn.
Some millionaires have even allowed themselves to go bankrupt and then (even faster) recreated their wealth, sometimes even greater than before. Money itself isn't the obstacle that is keeping you from being wealthy. If you're really good in your business, don't worry, because someone that will offer you money (a bank or business partner) will appear who will appreciate your talent knowing you are a very good investment opportunity. But you can't sit around waiting for this - make it happen.
Exercise "taking action" as much as you can. Make your workplace better or more efficient. After all, even if someone else signs your paycheck, you really work for you. Even if you are an employee in a large corporation - it isn't your corporation - but it is the only corporation through which you can prove what you are capable of right now.
All of us have what it takes to become a millionaire! Born winners, yet few of us know how to take advantage of and cultivate the possibilities hidden inside our own mind!
No one can ever grant you greater potential than your heart already holds…you need only discover its contents to find the one true path to your success in life. Born with the seeds to our success, the greatest decisions must always come from the inside! You will discover a new, deep well of fortune – yourself!

9 Steps To An Abundant Life
Find out how to live an abundant life...
Many of us are bowed down by life – stressed, short of time, tired, on a treadmill, knowing that this isn’t the way to live, but not knowing how to free ourselves up to live more fully, to live an abundant life. There are simple things we can do – they don’t take time or money – they take a change of attitude.
9 Steps To An Abundant Life:
1. Being totally financially honest – if you are not, this implies that there is not enough for you to have everything you need without dishonesty.
2. Creating a vacuum so that more good things can flow into it – don’t fill your life up with things you don’t really want. Ask yourself if you want each thing before you buy it. Don’t have abundant rubbish, live an abundant life by seeking out the things and experiences that work for you in your core being.
3. Tithing is often associated with religion, but it is also possible to tithe in a non-religious context. This seems a really important aspect of living abundantly – every time you freely give money away, you are implying that you are confident that more will come – this is a BIG positive affirmation with a lot of power behind it. The traditional amount is 10% of your income. I’ve recommended this to lots of people, and they’ve told me that when they do this – magically - they seem to have more. I started with 10% but now I’ve increased it, because I’ve seen that the more I give away the more I get back, and the happier and more abundantly I live.
4. Being grateful for what you already have – focusing on the good that is already in your life. It’s easy to think about what you don’t have, but spend some time each day thinking about what you do have. Start each day by thinking of 5 things that you are grateful for – and express this out loud.
5. Resentment, jealousy, envy and self-pity interfere with the free-flow of abundance. If you are jealous or envious of someone, it implies that what they have is not available for you to have also. If you find it difficult to let go of these feelings, Bach flower remedies may help. Try the remedy ‘willow’ to counteract resentment and self-pity, or try ‘holly’ for envy, jealousy and greed.
6. Forgiving those that have wronged you is part of living an abundant life. Holding on to your anger, however justifiable it may seem, keeps you stuck in the past, rather than going forward into a better future. If it’s difficult to let go of your negative feelings, try writing a letter expressing all your anger, hurt or envy. Write until you can write no more, and then burn it.
7. Being able to receive from other people. Being able to receive is healthy, but many people find it difficult. You may need to practice receiving. Think of the pleasure you get in giving. By not receiving generously you are denying other people the pleasure of giving.
8. Realize that in general ‘good luck’ plays a very small part in people’s life. (If you put your faith in good luck, then you have to accept the possibility of bad luck, too.) People who put their faith in ‘good luck’ often spend their lives waiting for things to happen. People who don’t believe in luck go out and make things happen.
9. Believing that there is enough money, food, love, etc. in the world to meet everyone’s needs to live abundantly. I left this one till last, because it can be very hard to believe when faced with war and starvation in the newspapers and on the TV, but a lot of this anger and need is caused because people who have do not believe they have enough, because they substitute money and food for all the other abundance of life. Do your bit to correct that imbalance and start living a life that recognizes there are inequalities and shortages, but recognizes that we can correct that so we all have what we need.

Imagine Yourself Rich
Learn how to make money and work for yourself by selling your ideas.
Do you know how to make money? If you're like most of us, you've followed the road most traveled: school, internships, entry-level positions. You probably spend forty hours or more toiling behind a desk for a paycheck that barely covers your expenses. This may be an excellent way to make money for your boss or company, but who is making money for you? Wouldn't you rather be working for yourself?
“Most of us were taught the wrong way to make money,†explains marketing strategist Stefanie Hartman. “Ninety-seven out of every one hundred people will go their entire lives without learning the right way to make money. The good news is that virtually anyone can be taught how to make six figures annually.â€
Hartman suggests that there are three strategies for making money:
1. Trade time for money. This is most likely the strategy you've employed up to this point. In this scenario, you work; they pay - barely. Most of us spend all of our time and energy making money for someone else instead of spending time with our friends and families. Even if we do manage to make a decent living, we hardly have the time to enjoy it.
2. Invest money for money. Do you have money to lose? Because the only way to make money by investing is if you can afford to risk losing your initial investment. Most of us can't, which is why only about 3% of the population are successfully using this strategy to make money.
3. Trade value for money. Using this strategy, people just like you are learning how to make money by selling their ideas. They're capitalizing on their own imaginations, and are spending next to nothing to get started.
Do you want to work for yourself, make six figures, set your own hours and finally have time for your family? If you think you're ready to start making money for yourself, you want door number three.
“Money is simply an exchange or reward for something,†says Hartman. “That something is either time or value. If value is your preference than your first step is to define your value. What do you have to give that will enrich another's life or business?â€
Everyone has value. Everyone has a special knack, a particular talent, or a wealth of knowledge not possessed by others. Maybe you know how to help people conquer their fears. Perhaps you are an expert at organizing, decorating, or fixing home appliances. The point is that you know something that you can teach to others; and people will gladly pay you to learn.
“In real life we constantly trade information with our friends and family to help them out,†says Hartman. “So why not turn that into a business? Why not share your information with even more people, and make money in the process?â€
Hartman goes on to explain that it's pointless for us to struggle for years making money for someone else. “Wouldn't you love to make six figures a year from your couch or home office?†she asks. “Making money has nothing to do with age, formal education, gender or geography.â€
“Remember,†says Hartman, “everyone has value! Millions of people are using intellectual property marketing to make money for themselves. So can you.â€

Everyone has value. Everyone has a special knack, a particular talent, or a wealth of knowledge not possessed by others. Maybe you know how to help people conquer their fears. Perhaps you are an expert at organizing, decorating, or fixing home appliances. The point is that you know something that you can teach to others; and people will gladly pay you to learn.
“In real life we constantly trade information with our friends and family to help them out,†says Hartman. “So why not turn that into a business? Why not share your information with even more people, and make money in the process?â€
Hartman goes on to explain that it's pointless for us to struggle for years making money for someone else. “Wouldn't you love to make six figures a year from your couch or home office?†she asks. “Making money has nothing to do with age, formal education, gender or geography.â€
“Remember,†says Hartman, “everyone has value! Millions of people are using intellectual property marketing to make money for themselves. So can you.â€

Acquiring A Prosperity Consciousness
The one thing all wealthy people have that the less fortunate have not is a Prosperity Consciousness.
So, What is a Prosperity Consciousness?
A prosperity consciousness is nothing more complicated than the good feeling you’d have about yourself if your income far exceeded your expenses. So, if your cash flow is almost always positive, you can assume that you already have a prosperity consciousness. Congratulations! You’re on you way toward becoming wealthy. But if you don't have a Prosperity Consciousness, you might want to make it your intention to have one.
Once you've acquired a Prosperity Consciousness, you’ll be attracting money like a magnet. So, the obvious first step in changing your relationship to money would be for you to acquire a prosperity consciousness. So, ho how do you do that?
A Prosperity Consciousness begins with a positive cash flow
You'll find it next to impossible to maintain a prosperity consciousness when your cash flow is negative. So, to prime the pump on your own prosperity consciousness you must:
Cut your expenses
Increase your income
Or do both
But not without a BEING shift
Remember, you can’t change what you have in your life without a change in who you are being, so take the first step in acquiring a Prosperity Consciousness: Create a vision of what your life would be like if you were already wealthy beyond your wildest dreams. When you’ve created that picture, chose to BE wealthy.
Once you’ve made “BE WEALTHY†BEING choice, you’ll easily DO whatever it takes to create a positive cash flow. You’ll be creating a budget and you’ll willingly live by that budget, empowered by the vision of taking ocean cruises and coming back with more money in the bank than when you left.
Once you have the cash flow moving in the right direction, once your income finally exceeds your spending, you’ll have that inner sense of well being—the beginnings of a prosperity consciousness. The greater your cash flow, the richer you’ll feel, and the richer you feel, the larger the flow will become. Maybe that bible passage could be interpreted to read:
For whomsoever hath a prosperity consciousness, to him or her shall be given more and more abundance. --Darel Rutherford
Why does a Prosperity Consciousness make you a magnetic force for attracting money?
We've talked about this many times before. The Law of Attraction is set into motion the moment you make any sort of BEING commitment. And you are already the magnetic force that attracted who and what you now have in your life.
If you are not, now, demonstrating a Prosperity Consciousness, attracting the prosperity that goes with that consciousness, you are attracting its opposite. Take a long hard look at what you've attracted into your life -- the people and the material benefits, or lack thereof. Is that who and what you want in your life?
Well? What are you going to do about it? Prosperity is a BEING choice.
What's in your life now was the result of a BEING choice. To change what you have, make another BEING commitment.
When you become rich, it will be because of who you are, not because of what you have--Darel Rutherford
