Manifesting Money

Subscribe here:



A great piece by Lori Hamann I wanted to share:


Do you ever get the sense, that if you could just make more money, all of your problems would be over? Do you ever feel like money controls you, instead of you controlling your money? Money gives you things, yes, but more importantly it gives you freedom. Freedom to spend, freedom to have, and freedom to just be. You want money so that life can be and feel easier...You want money so you can experience freedom.

Isn't it funny - how we all want to manifest more money in our lives, (and not have to work for it!) - but so many of us hold to the belief that in order to have an abundance of money in life you must work very hard for it?! The key is, if you feel that you must work hard to create money, you will.

Isn't is funny- how we all want to manifest more money in our lives, so we will feel better about who we are - but so many of us hold to the belief that the rich are evil or stuck up? The key - if you feel negative feelings about those who create money around you, you will repel abundance and money away from you.

What is your dominant belief or feeling about money? What do you think you are "vibrating" about money? Are you inviting money to come into your life, or are you repelling it away from you? Have you been stuck in the same place with your money for a long time?

Manifesting, or creating for that matter, can be explained in a few short steps. You ask, you receive, and you allow "it" to come into your life, whatever "it" maybe. Whether it's a new car, a relationship, health, or money - those are the simplified steps to creating anything you want in your life. You have heard the expression, "be careful what you ask for, you might just get it!" True.

So it may sound too easy and simple. We ask and we receive? Boom, just like that? Yes, just like that. What we struggle with is "allowing" the manifestation.

How do you hinder money from coming into your life? You hinder the allowance of money flow into your life with contradictory thoughts, beliefs and feelings. You say, "This year I will make $50,000. But, I want to (or wish I could) make $100,000 or more." Which of these projections do you think will manifest? So many times it is the limited belief that is manifested in life, because it holds the bigger focus for you. By the Law of Attraction, what we focus on gets bigger. If you are focused on lack, you create lack. If you focus on abundance you create abundance. If you focus on nothing, you create nothing. If you focus on what is, you create more of what is. If you would like to consciously create in your life, it calls for a shift in focus. A shift towards what you want vs. what you don't want.

Here are a few tips to get you started - so that you may begin to attract the money that you would like in your life - so that you may experience the freedom you desire.

How to Increase the Flow of Money Into Your Life

1. Be conscious of the Law of Attraction: Abraham defines the Law of Attraction like this - "That which is like unto itself is drawn. " So what you are radiating and vibrating in your life with your thoughts, words, emotion and beliefs you will attract to you. Again, focus on abundance, get abundance. Focus on lack of money - and you will create more of a lack of money. Also remember that first you ask with your desire, you receive, and then you allow "it" to come into your life.

2. Say YES to money: Have you made a decision to have money in your life? Have you said YES to money? Remember that when you say yes to money, you include that in your vibration, and you will attract money. If you are saying NO to money - with your feelings, thoughts or beliefs, you will also include that in your vibration. Decide to say YES to money. Line up what you want with what you feel. Don't settle for what life throws your way - create your life just as you want it to be.

3. Consciously vibrate positive feelings about your money: As you think about your money, focus on what you have, vs. what you don't have. Allow what you "don't have" only to serve as a light in helping you to see what you do in fact want to create. Think positive thoughts about the money that you do have, see it growing, see it flowing in and out of your bank account with ease. See that you have enough, and that we all have enough. Come from a place that lack will only be our experience if we believe and project lack. See money as a wonderful source of energy that is a God given form of exchange. Get excited about creating money and feel good about it. Nothing is more important than that YOU FEEL GOOD when you are creating your life.

4. Be aware of where negative beliefs about money sneak up on you: Negative beliefs have a tendency to sneak up on you. Pay attention to your emotions - they will guide you. If you are not feeling good, check out your thoughts behind it. You may find a negative belief. If you find yourself feeling angry that someone makes more money than you, examine what your belief is. If you find yourself feeling sorry for another is not as prosperous as you, and you feel bad, examine that as well. Begin to unhook from negative beliefs through awareness, reframing, or shifting focus - which will allow you to flow your energy positively. Looks for as many positive aspects of a situation that you can possibly find. Write them down.

5. Make sure that what you want, and what you are vibrating, are the same: This of course ties in with your beliefs. People tend to have mixed attitudes that stem from greater belief systems, when it comes to creating money. You might say, "I want to create an extra $500 to pay for that seminar I want to take..." But then you might find yourself saying, "There is no way I am going to get that extra $500....or, I can't afford it....or, it's too much....or, I have no idea how to get it....or, it's probably not worth it anyway....or, or, or. Those beliefs or attitudes are in no way a match to what you actually desire - which is to go to that seminar. Can you feel the difference in the vibration even as you read the words? You make sure that what you desire, and what you are vibrating (about that desire) be in alignment.

6. Clean up your money clutter: When you clean up any space in your life, including you money space - you create space for more of what you want to come in. If you are wanting to create more money in your life, it is important to create space for that money! Pay your bills, pay those you owe, ask for payment for those who owe you, straighten your files, create a plan for your money, or handle your emotional issues around money. Remember that you will, as an end result feel clear. When you feel clear, you feel good (it's like cleaning the house). And when you FEEL GOOD, and are coming from a good place about your money, you will be vibrating a pure vibration which aligns you with what you want -- more money!

7. Love and appreciate your money: You may have had the experience, as you sit down to pay your bills - that you HATE to pay your bills. You see your bank account drain once again, and the fury builds from within. It's important to note that what you love and appreciate you will attract more of, and what you depreciate you will repel. If you want more money, match your vibration to what you want, and the best way to feel good about something is to appreciate it, and allow yourself to love it. Society tells us that it is not ok to love your money -- in fact it's not right even to talk about it. Break the chain of societal beliefs about money.

8. Love and appreciate yourself: It was said before, nothing is more important than feeling good. When you feel good, and happy, and passionate, and peaceful, and aligned with you true self , the process of manifestation can begin! Part of self appreciation is honoring yourself enough to look within for the "answers". It is tuning into your inner self and your intuition. It is paying attention to your emotions. If you feel negative, then you are not in alignment. If you feel good, then your are in alignment with your true self and your desires. Self appreciation also comes from choosing your thoughts, beliefs, and feelings - and acknowledging your power as the creator of your life!

How To Materialize Your Desires

The following is an excerpt from the book THEN - The Oracle, available from
http://ImagesOfOne.com

"It is desire that makes entrance to existence, and its omission closes it."

THEN, could you tell me more about the materialization process?

It is the union of three, ''Desire-Thought-Energy'', that are the building blocks of creative reality.

What are the steps involved?

First of all DESIRE! Literally make it a BURNING desire.

It is this stirring of ''inner fire'' that will open the doors to existence.

Secondly use your IMAGINATION to generate THOUGHTS that will act as a carrier wave of the desire. Picture the outcome vividly. FEEL IT and see yourself within these scenes as if it were already happening and in a sense it already has.

Thirdly ENERGIZE those thoughts through concurrent behavior. Act in a way as if it were already part of your existence.

Finally let the Universe deliver. Let Go! Stay out of the way. Just allow it to happen.

So what if the outcome turns out to be different or just seems not to happen at all?

Always remember that you are on a level that need opposites to allow experience. The only thing you have to do is choose which direction to follow and just follow it, but be clear which direction to follow. You don't get anywhere when you''re not giving clear driving instructions to the cab driver.

I'll be honest with you. Sometimes I do have doubts which way to go. What does that mean?

Doubt is a condition of being caught between two opposite forces of the same magnitude, ''Yes-No, Yes-No, Yes-No etc...'' You just don't know which direction to follow, so you're stuck in the middle. Shift your Point of Focus in either direction to start a flow of action so your state of being will change into a state of doing, hence a state of having can be accomplished.

OK, so I decide to go in one direction. Why is it that often I don't end up where I'm going?

A flow of energy is never untouched with opposite ingredients, but the direction it flows is determined by the amount of particles whose alignment predominates the others. If the ratio is 51% left vs. 49% right, it will align itself to the left direction. It is obvious its speed towards that direction would be more slowly than when the ratio was 80% vs. 20%.

Direction is determined by the flow of particles that dominates in alignment and its speed in proportion to the amount of difference (in alignment). Therefore examine if you have any thoughts that contradict this desire.

Look for any adopted beliefs that are strongly held in your subconscious, which discourage that desire.

Examine your feelings regarding this desire. Do you find any of them that makes you uncomfortable when related to this desire or even consider the desire appalling.

Find those opposite intentions and embrace them. Absorb their energy by acknowledging that you understand you have them due to your dualistic nature of being and align them to become part of your new desire.

OK, and than what?

The moment you announce your desire, do not focus on it any longer. Merely release opposite thoughts, those that block or hinder it from coming into existence.

How fast can I see the results?

The speed of materialization of a desire is determined by the lack of ''counter thoughts'' and not by a continuous focus. Your direction has already been established so affirmations and other disciplinary focus drills are a pure waste of time and are more delaying the process than speeding it up. When you constantly repeat to the cab driver where you want to go, he probably would stop the car and strongly advise you to get out. So the more you focus on the outcome, the more it will charge the opposite.

Do I need discipline?

Discipline concerns only those who believe they ''need'' it. Those are the ones who wish to believe that goals can only be reached by force and indurations and not by simply having fun doing it. Of course we don't mean that you do not have to follow up on your desire, for your actions feed the carrier to deliver your wishes, but you don't have to put force into it. Just let it happen and flow with the stream. Keep in mind... "if it ain't easy, it ain't yours" .

How can I do this right. Is there a trick?

The ''trick'' is to focus without actually focusing. Why should you constantly think of it? Wouldn't that prove that you don''t have enough faith, not enough trust? And these counter thoughts and feelings will be part of the delivery as well. How would you feel when somebody is constantly repeating the same old story over and over again? Wouldn't you be fed up and turn away? So don't constantly THINK of it. Instead just occupy yourself in DOING it!

But sometimes it''s hard not to allow doubts into your mind.

The Universe does nothing else than respond and if you doubt the outcome it responds accordingly. So let go and allow it to happen. Let the universe take care of it. It always delivers, but you can accelerate the delivery time by just getting out of the way. Release those thoughts that are contrary to the direction you wish to follow and do not constantly emphasize your goal through repetitive affirmations. Remember, things you really desire are already yours and present. You only have to ''see'' them as being present, to allow them to surface.

Is there a trick to see it as being present?

The ''trick'' is not to FORCE things to happen, but to ALLOW them to happen. Your desire ignites the events to awaken and from that moment on they are already happening, although it seems they are not, due to your distorted sense of time which prevents you to see it from happening immediately. Trust your own power of creation that things are set in motion and eager to appear into your level of awareness, IF YOU JUST LET THEM!

So what should I do? Nothing?

You are not capable of doing ''nothing'', although it might look that way. Even when you are in a resting state, you are actually in a state of doing. Your energy patterns are still moving. Your mind is thinking and your body molecules are forever changing. Resting could be compared as wobbling a rocking chair. A lot of motion, but no progress in either direction.

But back to your question, the rule is: ''Don't overdo it!''

It is fine to dream along the path of your desire, for that keeps the inner fire burning, but there is no need for self-denial, self-inflicting rituals, mechanical affirmations, repetitions, mantra's, tantra's, sacrifices or whatever mumbo jumbo. Just have faith! Trust that the outcome will be that what you have desired.

Follow the directions given and you WILL create your wish come true.

Three Inspirations for Happiness

Subscribe here:

The following three inspirations were adapted from A Daily Dose of Happiness, and they represent three key ways to increase our happiness.

1. FORGIVING FOR HAPPINESS

We like to think we are better than our friends below us in the food chain, such as the octopus and the snail. After all, we have love. We feel happiness. We have empathy. We have a conscience. We can reason.

We can also hold onto grudges.

Grudges are, in fact, prickly little creatures that worm their way into our hearts. Holding onto them is a self-defeating exercise.

Fortunately, forgiveness is also uniquely human. Forgiveness cleanses the spirit. Forgiveness let's us get on with enjoying our lives instead of being preoccupied with someone else's. Forgiveness opens the door to happiness.

2. SUPPORTING FOR HAPPINESS

When things seem to be very bleak, it does not take much to lift someone's spirits. Sometimes all it takes is to let somebody know they are not alone.

That is why it is so important to smile at people, especially if they look down. And if you know what is weighing the person down, let them know they are not alone. Don't go burdening them with all your miseries, but let them know you have been there.

Guess what? You will feel happiness for having helped them, too.

3. ACCEPTING FOR HAPPINESS

There is no such thing as happiness if you are not at peace with yourself. Too many people just don't know how to make peace with themselves.

Peace begins with acceptance. Whether we agree with everything we do (like the environmentalist who sometimes throws out a recyclable container), it is important to accept what we do.

Do we always make the best choices? No. But they are the choices we make.

Do we always treat people with the most respect? No. But it is how we treat people.

Can we improve? Yes, and we should. But that is a project for the future. First we must accept who we are now, rather than condemning ourselves. Then we can move to improve the person we will be tomorrow. Both acceptance today and improvements tomorrow will increase our happiness.
