People have always wanted to be rich. And why not? Financial problems are a drag! While most of us in the developed world aren’t going hungry (unless we’re on a diet!) we know what it is to have to budget in order to pay the house payment or rent. Many of us have overextended ourselves on credit cards and have problems paying all the bills even when we have a pretty good income. Yes, a bit more money would be nice! While money has always been a desired commodity, “abundance” has become a buzzword recently. Just having money is not the same as having abundance. Abundance refers to a satisfied, comfortable existence. Abundance is being able to share nice food and drink with guests. Abundance is having a comfortable bed and a happy marriage. Money can help you create abundance, but it doesn’t take the place of it.

So how can we think and act to create a wealthy, abundant life for ourselves and our families? It all starts in the mind. Wealth happens to people because they think positively about money and expect success and riches. You can be a financial success. Develop a healthy respect for yourself, for your dreams and abilities. One simple exercise you can do is to say to yourself each morning, the first thing after you get our of bed, “I believe. I believe. I believe.” Then start to verbally list the things you believe.

For instance, I believe there is enough abundance to go around. I believe I have the ability to do the things I must do today to insure that my business succeeds. I believe other people will respond favorably to me in most cases. I believe that those who do not have their reasons, and it doesn’t need to threaten my confidence. I believe I can do it. I believe I deserve wealth and abundance as much as anyone does.

Abundance is a little different commodity than just wealth. Many people are wealthy without having a gracious, abundant style of living. To create abundance in your life, pay attention to small details. Many of the things that can be done to create an abundant life fall in the jurisdiction of the homemaker in the family. For instance, are things neat and orderly?

A real killer of abundance and peace of mind is clutter. In todays affluent homes, clutter can be a real challenge. The fact is, there is only enough time in life to enjoy a finite amount of stuff. Kids don’t have time to play with and bond to more than a few select toys, so why own hundreds? You probably don’t have time to enjoy all the books you might own, and most of them can be checked out of the library anyway. Similarly, you will probably never go through those stacks of magazines or wear many of the clothes that are choking your closet.

In many ways, less really is more. Get into the habit of getting rid of the extra things in your home that you really won’t use and don’t need. Having breathing space in your home is one of the first steps to creating an atmosphere of luxury and ease.

Credit Repair Secrets Revealed!

This is the first in a series of articles based on the teachings found in the success classic “The Science of Getting Rich”, written in 1910 by Wallace D. Wattles. This book—now in the public domain–is essential reading for anyone who wants to become wealthy.

In the preface, Mr. Wattles explains that the reader should accept the principles laid out in “The Science of Getting Rich” on faith, and then proceed to prove their truth by acting on them. He then cites the authorities from which he developed the science of getting rich.

First, he explains that the monistic theory of the universe, the theory that All-is-One and that this one substance manifests itself as the seemingly different elements of the material world, is of Hindu origin. In addition, it is the foundation of the philosophies of Descartes, Spinoza, Leibnitz, Schopenhauer, Hegel, and Emerson.

In the first chapter of his book, Mr. Wattles explains that a person’s right to life means their right to develop in body, mind, and soul to their fullest potential. That is, the right to life isn’t just about the right not to be harmed or to be deprived of liberty; instead, every person has an inalienable right to all the development they’re capable of attaining.

Said development can only be accomplished through the use of things, and in order to become the possessor of things, a person must have money. Therefore, the right to life means the right to have money, or the right to be rich. This idea can be expressed as the following equation:

The Right to Life = The Right to Be Rich

“The Science of Being Rich” teaches us that it is normal to want to live more abundantly, so it is normal to want to be rich. To quote Mr. Wattles, “The desire for riches is really the desire for a richer, fuller, and more abundant life—and that desire is praiseworthy”. For Mr. Wattles, a rich person is someone who owns all they want in order to live as expansively as they can.

As stated previously, we live for the body, the mind, and soul. Mr. Wattles goes on to say that it is essential to understand that each is equally important, and that we must give full expression to each.

• In order to live fully in the body, a person needs good food, comfortable clothing, warm shelter, rest, and leisure. And not just enough to be satisfied, but enough to enjoy life to its fullest.

• To live fully in mind, a person needs books and time to study them, opportunity for travel and observation, and intellectual companionship. A person also needs intellectual recreation, and to surround themselves with objects of art and beauty.

• To live fully in the soul, a person must have love, and love finds its most natural and spontaneous expression in giving. The more money you have, the more you can give.

Since it is perfectly right that you should want to grow to your highest potential and enjoy life to the fullest, and in order to attain this you need material things, it is perfectly right that you should desire money to buy these things.

In fact, Mr. Wattles emphasizes that it is your duty to make the most of yourself, and you can only make the most of yourself when you’re rich and able to buy all the things you need to develop your talent to its greatest capacity. Therefore, you should devote your full attention to the science of getting rich.

Most people do not take the initiative to learn how to be rich. They spend years in school, college, and even go on to graduate studies, learning all they need to know to get a good job and make a decent living. However, they don’t study the subject of wealth: how to make lots of money, how to invest it and make it grow, and how to protect it.

According to Mr. Wattles, everyone should set for themselves the goal of becoming rich. His book is a course on how to go about achieving that goal.

Ultimate Guide To Job Interview Answers

One major stumbling block many people experience when attempting to attract more prosperity and abundance into their lives is the perception that they must wait for some power greater than themselves to give the go-ahead. It’s very common to feel this way!

Years ago, I used to ask for greater abundance all the time (beg for it, actually), and then I’d wait anxiously, growing more and more impatient when it didn’t show up. Perhaps you’ve done that too? The problem with this activity is that it enhances the perception of POWERLESSNESS. When we do this we are holding a belief that “someone” has to approve our request, and we are at the mercy of their decision.

What if I told you it’s not true? What if I told you that YOU have the power to DEMAND your rightful abundance, right now?

The Law of Attraction takes its cues from YOU! It doesn’t think, question or judge. It doesn’t wait for you to become “good enough” or more deserving. It simply delivers what you expect to receive, period. If you’re not sure what you’ve been expecting in recent weeks and months, take a look at your life circumstances. Are you struggling with financial lack? Feelings of emptiness and frustration? Feelings of powerlessness and hopelessness?

EMBRACE YOUR POWER!

Below you’ll find three simple steps to reclaim your inner power and use it to create a more abundant life:

1) Believe you have the power to demand your rightful abundance.

The universe responds to your own thoughts, beliefs, emotions and expectations. Whatever you believe and focus on the most is what you’re going to get! If you consistently reinforce the belief that you are powerless and you need to wait for the universe to grant your wishes, you’ll be waiting for a long time!

Begin immediately to acknowledge and embrace your own power. You are a magnificent, dynamic creator in your own right! You DO have the power to decide your life circumstances – whether involving financial issues or anything else.

How much money do you want to have? What would you consider to be “enough”? Once you’ve gotten clear on what you want, DEMAND that it be so! Get angry. Get powerful! Tell the universe that you’re not going to settle for lack anymore and you are calling forth the material resources and abundance that you deserve – NOW!

2) Believe you deserve it.

Speaking of deserving, you must convince yourself that you deserve to have what you want. Do you consider yourself to be a good person? Do you believe you deserve to be comfortable and happy? What would you do with your life if you had plenty of money? How many people would you be able to help? Are you willing to give yourself that opportunity?

If you feel any twinges of doubt or uneasiness when you ponder these questions, you probably do not yet have the level of belief in your own worth that will be necessary to receive your rightful abundance. Begin working on boosting your self-worth each day by speaking kindly to yourself and affirming your value as a person. The more strongly you believe in your own worth, the more easily you’ll be able to open up and receive the things you want.

3) Believe that it’s already yours.

Once you’ve demanded your abundance, you’ve got to convince yourself that it’s already yours – simply because you choose it to be so! Imagine that someone told you they would be sending some money to you, and you knew without a doubt it would be arriving shortly. How would you feel? Confident, happy and expectant, right? Feel that way now! There is great power in holding this mind-set! I call it “active faith.” You simply choose to KNOW that your intentions will manifest.

It’s important to point out that “demanding” abundance and prosperity does not mean you are being greedy, selfish or ungrateful! Rather than seeing this activity as that of a petulant child, choose instead to see it as an act of confidence and choice by an empowered person. Know that you do have the power to choose your experiences, and you need not apologize or feel guilty for wanting to live an abundant life. Be grateful and appreciative of what you receive, and you will receive more!

The Awakening Course: Attracting Wealth, Health, Happiness And Love

EFT or Emotional Freedom Techniques (often referred to as tapping) can be a great aid in getting to the feeling you want so that the Law of Attraction can work for you.  Tapping was developed by Gary Craig and is based upon ancient Eastern healing traditions.

We will not cover the entire history of or rationale for EFT here.  Suffice it to say that the body consists of energy fields and in a well functioning (spiritually, emotionally and physically) body there is a natural and unrestricted flow of energy in, around and through the body.  The energy flows along paths called meridians.  When the energy flow is obstructed for any reason, any number or combination of maladies may occur.  Acupuncture used needles inserted at key points along the meridians to help release energy blockages.  Tapping uses the fingers of one hand tapping gently on key meridian points while speaking focusing, framing and releasing phrases to re-orient, release and refresh the energy flow through the body.

There are many great online sources for detailed information about EFT and how and why it works.  The success stories are too numerous to mention.

When trying to allow a feeling of abundance into our lives as a precursor to living an abundant life, which is the proper sequence if we are to allow the Law of Attraction to work properly, we often find ourselves blocked.  Our left-brain chatterbox voice continually kicks in and reminds us of what we don’t have, how much is lacking, why abundance is bad or selfish or simply not for us.  We get stuck in a frustrating loop of, on the one hand, desiring abundance while, on the other hand, sending out a message of lack of abundance to the Universe.  This is just old beliefs and stuck energy at work…and is exactly what EFT is great for releasing.

What follows is a short tapping sequence to help release the energy blocks and to allow the feeling of abundance to flow freely.  In using the following script, and without going into the details of how to do EFT, the tapping points are noted in parentheses.  You should tap these points while speaking the phrases shown out loud.  Speaking out loud and with emotion do improve the effectiveness of the technique.

One other disclaimer here; I am not a medical doctor nor a trained practitioner (there no longer exist any formal EFT certifications); results will vary by individual (although I believe that EFT always helps-and it cannot hurt); the specific ways in which EFT is employed vary widely, and all have been shown to be effective.  Approach this with a spirit of joy, fun, gratitude and expectation.

The tapping points are (and it doesn’t matter which side of the body you do these on): Side of hand – The karate chop point; Eyebrow Point – End of the eyebrow closest to your nose; Side of Eye – The corner of your eye, on the bone of the socket away from your nose; Under the Eye – Directly under the eye on the bone of the orbit; Under the Nose – Directly under the nose, above your lip roughly at the level of the top of your teeth;  Under the Mouth – The cleft between your mouth and chin directly below your mouth; Collarbone – There is some variance here, I prefer tapping directly below the chin on the point where the two ends of the collarbone join; Under the Arm – Directly below the armpit approximately four inches down; Top of the Head – Directly on the crown of the head and tap in a small circle.  The tapping should be hard enough to feel but not so hard as to cause pain.

With that as background, we can try a tapping sequence to help our energy flow around the feeling of abundance.

(Side of the Hand)-Even though I can’t seem to feel abundant,

-I deeply love and respect myself.

-Even though I can’t seem to feel abundant,

-I deeply love and forgive myself.

-Even though I can’t seem to feel abundant,

-I worry about having enough food,

-I worry about having enough money,

-I worry about being taken advantage of,

-I worry about losing everything that I have,

-And anyone and anything that may be contributing to this.

-

(Top of the Head)-But I can’t feel abundant.

-

(Eyebrow Point)-I have to get the feeling before I can get the thing,

(Side of the Eye)-The Law of Attraction says that,

(Under the Eye)-So I have to feel abundant,

(Under the Nose)-And I just can’t.

(Under the Mouth)-I can’t feel abundance,

(CollarBone Point)-Because I can’t get past all my worries,

(Under the Arm)-And my worries are legitimate,

(Top of the Head)-Just look at the checkbook.

-

(Eyebrow Point)-But, maybe I am overreacting, just a little,

(Side of the Eye)-I do have a lot of things,

(Under the Eye)-In a lot of the world, I would be viewed as a king or queen,

(Under the Nose)-Sure times are tough now,

(Under the Mouth)-But they have been tough before,

(CollarBone Point)-And I have survived,

(Under the Arm)-And even if they seem worse this time,

(Top of the Head)-I’ll probably survive this too.

-

(Eyebrow Point)-Maybe I can just be grateful for the little things,

(Side of the Eye)-And there are still a lot of little things to be grateful for,

(Under the Eye)-Maybe I even have an abundance of little things,

(Under the Nose)-So I can be grateful for that abundance,

(Under the Mouth)-I can be abundant in little things,

(CollarBone Point)-And once I am abundant in little things,

(Under the Arm)-I’ll bet I start seeing bigger things.

(Top of the Head)-And then I can get to the feeling of abundance.

-

(Eyebrow Point)-I am breathing and my body is working, at least a little,

(Side of the Eye)-And I have a computer, or access to one,

(Under the Eye)-My brain is working,

(Under the Nose)-I do know what I want, and what I don’t want,

(Under the Mouth)-I want to feel abundant,

(CollarBone Point)-And I can feel abundant, because I am,

(Under the Arm)-I am abundant in the most important ways right now,

(Top of the Head)-I accept my abundance with joy and gratitude.

-

-Take a deep breath.

Now, hopefully that helps, at least a little.  Feel free to do it again.  Play with the words.  Make it fun.  Tap and tap and tap your way to abundance and true allowing.

Credit Secrets Bible Now Pays $40 Per Sale!!!

Abundance…this word has become quite popular these days as one of the latest “metaphysical buzzwords”. “Creating abundance”, “manifesting abundance”, and “living the abundant life” are just a few of the abundance of abundant cliches these days.

All of these sayings are trying to convince us that this abundant Life is just out there waiting for us to step into it. So you may be asking the $50,000,000 question: “How do I do that?” Quite frankly, I’m not sure I have all the answers to that but I do have some ideas that I thought I might share with you. Actually, I have only one idea (”brilliant simplicity”…maybe the next great buzz-phrase?!!): Be ye not redundant.

There are 2 old sayings that come to mind around this redundancy theory. The first is, “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always gotten”.

And the second is, “The definition of insanity is repeating the same behavior over and over again, expecting a different outcome.” You have very likely heard these before so let me give you my “rocket-science” version: If you want more and you’re not currently getting more with your current choices, then just do it differently. Amazing, huh??!! Many times simple and less IS better. In other words, don’t be redundant in living your Life.

Redundancy may be unconsciously (or consciously) attractive because of its predictable familiarity. If you’ve already done “it” then you are bound to be more comfortable doing “it” again. Comfort, predictability, and familiarity, however, may all be roadblocks to abundance. So perhaps the choice is whether or not you are willing to go out on a limb (by the way, that IS where all the fruit is!!) and take a risk into unchartered territory.

If you look back over your Life you will find numerous examples of your courageous risk-taking that lead to abundance. Many of these events took place when you were very young and were not conditioned to “play it safe”, but rather, you were in full exploratory mode.

Examples include your first spoken words and the abundance of conversations you have had since then; your first step and the endless transportation of your body ever since; your first bicycle riding experience and the countless hours (some of which included “no hands”) of cruising this earth on those two wheeled machines; and your first interaction with a stranger that has enabled you to meet numerous “strangers”, many of which are now your friends and loved-ones.

The concept and meaning of abundance is all about living Life to your fullest capacity.

Here’s the REALLY good news: You are wired for abundance. Take a look around and you will see that the three elements that you need the most are found in practically unlimited abundance: Light, water and food. Furthermore, a squirrel never frets about where it will find it’s next meal, nor does a tree concern itself with ever being without enough sunlight.

Don’t you think you are as important as these? They live in abundance, so why shouldn’t you??!! You have an abundantly brilliant mind and an abundantly creative spirit, both of which are waiting for you to use them abundantly. So why waste your gifts with the redundant? Here’s the short Nike-like version: Just do it differently!!

Here are a couple ideas to get you started:

1. Drive to work a different way everyday.

2. Read a magazine that you’ve never read before.

3. Talk to a stranger that you would normally walk past.

4. Write a letter to yourself with your non-dominant hand.

5. Get up extra early and stay up extra late.

6. Listen to music that you’ve never listened to.

7. Eat at a restaurant that you’d normally not go to.

8. Create a list of ten abundant affirmations for your Life and carry yourself through each day believing in them and acting from them.

9. Talk to your Higher Power more frequently.

If you want abundance, then give up redundance and just simply “do it differently”. You will be pleasantly surprised with your results.
