Manifesting Money: The Law of Attraction
When you’re manifesting money, the same process applies when you’re manifesting other things. The law of attraction and money how they apply to your body and health. The same principles apply to money and the law of attraction and creating wealth in your life
Focus on Money
The first rule to manifesting money is simple: to attract money, you must focus on money. To bring money to you, you must create a new thought message of wealth. Money and the law of attraction is an important part of living a happy and fulfilling life.
When you focus on a lack of money or the consequences of not having enough, you are blocking all the money waiting for you with your thoughts. With money and the law of attraction, if your thoughts are on not having enough, you will never have enough.
- The Law of Attraction will bring back those pictures of not having enough as experiences.
- For example, when you have bills stacking up and don’t know where the money to pay them will come from, focusing on those bills will only attract more bills.
- Even though it’s hard, focusing on abundance, despite the bills, will send out the proper signal. Say, “These bills will be paid. Life is abundant, and something will come through.” Then believe it and feel the relief of it coming true.
You can’t attract money if you feel bad about money. With manifesting money, it makes sense that when you do not have enough money, money becomes a stressor. Your thoughts around it become negative.
- Those negative feelings about money are stopping more from coming to you.
If you can start to feel good about money and showing gratitude for what you have, you can create a new frequency. You must change your thoughts from lack-of-money to more-than-enough-money. Start to say and believe that you have more than enough. Feel it and show gratitude.
Remember the childhood game of make believe? Use your imagination to see and believe that you already have more than enough money. Imagine what you would buy with that money. All the things you will do. Imagine yourself spending, and feel the joy of it. This is the same idea as manifesting money. Gratitude and the law
- If you’ve ever thought, “I can’t afford it,” change those thoughts to, “I can afford that. I can buy anything I want.” Say it again and again, and believe it.
- When you see something you want, say, “I can afford that. I can buy that.” Better yet, look for things you want, and repeat those phrases.
- If you want to buy a Porsche, find the one you want, no matter how outlandish, and repeat, “I can buy that Porsche. I can afford it.”
- As you say the words, you will become convinced of the truth of those words. That expectation will translate into new pictures the Law of Attraction will mirror back to you.
