Money

Money and the Law of Attraction
Are you in a negative space right now? Feeling like your life is not within your control?
If so, I recommend… The new book by Esther and Jerry Hicks: ‘Money and the Law of Attraction’. It’s probably the most helpful and empowering book I’ve read this year.
I have been feeling so inspired that I now set aside a 20 minute period of time in my schedule to visualize good-feeling things happening in my life. It’s amazing to see how this is impacting my life and my mood.
My question to you is…are you consciously and CONSISTENTLY using the law of attraction to create what you want? In one of my readings, I ask clients to tell me, on a scale of 1-30 to what degree that client is using the law of attraction to deliberately create the life they want. Most clients get around 15-16 out of 30. Those clients usually tell me that they are actually using the law of attraction consciously, but then they also reveal that they are self-sabotaging by expecting the worst all the time, and focusing on what they don’t want as well. You can’t focus on what you do want AND consistently focus on what you don’t want and expect to feel good.
If like most of my clients, you’re about at 16/30 on the law of attraction scale, then you probably rate your life at about 6 out of 10 at the moment. So how can you get to a 10?
1. Get really clear on what exactly would constitute a 10 out of 10 (i.e great) life for you
Don’t use the excuse that you can’t have the life you want. Dare to dream. I recently went to a business workshop and the facilitator gave us ten minutes to imagine our dream working day and write it down. We then had to present our description of our dream day to our group. This was a great exercise because it put us under pressure and we had to bring our dreams out onto paper. There are many dreams inside you which could become part of your reality. But they can never become part of your reality if you don’t allow them to exist first in your thoughts and admit you want them.
2. Identify the feeling behind the intention
Understand that behind every intention like ‘I want to make more money’ or ‘I want a life partner’, there is a desire for a certain feeling, like love or abundance or freedom. Identifying WHY you want something helps you to visualize it better. For example, if you want to earn more money, then visualizing pots and pots of money probably isn’t going to excite you. But what may excite you is imagining the freedom more money will bring. Imagine yourself enjoying your abundance with your family and friends or helping others with your money, for example. That is much more likely to generate the feelings of excitement needed to begin creating your desired intention.
3. Eliminate negative input in your life
The sort of input which tells you that you can’t have a 10/10 life, or that you don’t deserve one - this includes your own negative self-talk. If you don’t know where to even start with that, that’s definitely an intention you need to put out there! Once you do that, you begin to attract the people and resources that can help you.
4. Enjoy your 10/10 life…
…in your imagination! To begin with, it doesn’t even have to be for a long period of time. Abraham says that focusing on a good-feeling thought for just 68 seconds changes your vibrational resonance if you’re feeling bad.
5. Realize that the most important thing is not external circumstances, but how you feel.
How you feel indicates whether or not you’re going in the direction of your desired outcome. So you need to have good-feeling thoughts, whether they ‘match’ your external reality or not. If it’s difficult for you to have good-feeling thoughts, instead begin by visualize good-feeling things.
6. Remind yourself often that you are the empowered creator of your life.
Invest in books and other resources and visit websites which leave you feeling empowered and in control of your life.
