Your Thoughts about Money

Your Money Blueprint

We get our money blueprint established when we are young by

Our parents, Our culture, Our neighborhood, Our schools, Our religious institutions.

What is Money Really?

Money is a means of exchange.It is a form of concrete energy that can represent whatever we imbue it with.

It can help us to be, do and have what we want in our lives and in our world.

Universal PrinciplesThese principles relate

to:how we see money how we use moneyhow we earn moneyhow we spend money but they are much

bigger than money.

Prosperity PrincipleThere is enough money for everyone.

 Prosperity begins in the MIND!

Thought is energy and energy has the power to manifest.

Principal of AwarenessWe must know where we are going in order to get there.

We need to know what is important to us; what we

want to be, do and have in our lives.

Principle of WantingGive yourselves

permission to want what you want.

Align your wants with your values.

We always make choices, whether we know it or not.

Principle of Choosing

Principle of Perception is Reality

We each see the world from our own perspective and then we assume that is how everyone else sees the world as well.

Once we have made an assumption about that “reality”, we proceed to act in ways that were often embedded in our earlier lives.

Principle of ReleasingThere is nothing that you desire that you cannot achieve, and there is nothing that you do not want that you cannot release from your experience. Abraham-Hicks.

Forgiveness is the KeyThere are no mistakes.We do the best we can at each moment.

We are wiser today than we were in the past.

Forgive yourself first.

Principle of Allowing

We must ALLOW

prosperity and abundance into

our life.

Principle of Responsibility

Take responsibility for the decisions we make.

Commit to ourselves in order to realize our dreams.

Be responsible to make our lives what we want them to be and to make our world what we want it to be.

Response-Ability

Principle of Compensation

When we make a choice we walk away from a myriad of other responses or choices.

Principle of Risk Taking

 Fear is anticipation

of pain or failure in some form.

Hesitation is focusing on what you don’t want (pain) rather than on what you do want.

Principle of Giving and Receiving

It is necessary to give and to receive in order to be open to the flow of money into our lives.

Questions about Giving and Receiving

What do you like to give? What do you like to receive? What is hard to give? What is hard to receive? What is the best gift you have ever given? What is the most wonderful gift you ever

received?

What we think about, talk about, work toward, is what we get.

It is attracted by our thoughts, our feelings and our actions.

Law of Attraction

Principle of GratitudeRecognizing what you

have in your life at this moment helps to open you up to the good that is coming.

“I am grateful for all the money I have now. It has allowed me to………………”

T-F-A-RThoughts lead to feelings.

Feelings lead to actions.

Actions lead to results.

Your Expectations Determine Your

Results

Believe it!Achieve it!

Visualization as a Tool“Our beliefs are

deeply tied in with our emotions…. If you use your frontal lobes to focus on something, anything-positive or negative-that becomes our belief system….”

~ Dr. Andrew Newberg, Director of the Center for Spirituality and the Neurosciences, University of Pennsylvania

Believe it! Achieve it!We become what we imagine, positive or negative.

Each is Part of the WholeThe Universe wants each of us to

succeed, to be happy and have a life filled with what we desire. ALL OF US.

We are each part of the whole. Energy and matter are interchangeable.

It is necessary to balance our desires with the desires of others.

Each of us DOES make a difference

in the world, to the world.

The Tool of Affirmation

An affirmation is a positive thought held with conviction to produce a desired result.

Create Your Affirmation

State it as if it is true NOW.

Make it powerful enough that you can FEEL it.

Repeat it everyday in a proud and confident voice.

Act as ifWhen we affirm, we are acting “AS IF”.

We are declaring what our lives

will be like when…………. Thoughts create reality.

Steps to an Abundant Future

Declare three times daily: I deserve to have everything I want. I am a money magnet.

 I choose abundance.

Spend Money with Intention

Ask yourself questions as you prepare to spend money:

What do I really want?What will this financial expense do for me?Is this something I need to buy?Is there another way besides spending

money?How much will this cost me in life energy?Am I willing to pay that price?What will I have to do to earn this money?

The Magic ParadoxWe need to be specific about what we want.

HOWEVER, we also need to be open to our desires manifesting in a way we don’t expect.

“This or something better according to the Universe’s plan.”

YOU have a prosperous future. Choose to see the abundance you already have in your life and then work toward being, doing and having everything you dream of.
