Wealth Mentality - Are You in Alignment?


For every person who says they want to be wealthy, there seem to be a hundred who go around complaining about how little money they have and wondering why things never get any better. Why is this a problem, you may ask?

The problem arises when your daily thoughts and actions (and reactions) are not consistent with what you say you want. This is called being out of alignment, and is a cause of much confusion and frustration for people. With money, as with everything else, we must think in terms of how we want things to be, and we must think and act in ways that attract such circumstances; otherwise, we are actually pushing away that which we so desperately strive for.

Money is a particularly volatile topic because it is so prevalent - we need money for almost everything in our lives, and not having enough creates obvious gaps. We notice when others have what we want and we can't afford it; we feel pain when our kids want things and we don't have the resources to provide - we may even get very angry. All of this anger and frustration is a result of us not being in alignment with what we want, and thus not being able to attract it.

Noticing that things are not working is an important first step. When we stop blaming our boss or our company or the Universe for our lack of prosperity, we can become still and begin to examine how our own behaviours might be contributing. This is where the breakthroughs happen!

To help you explore - and improve - your level of wealth mentality, notice how you feel about people who have wealth. Are you jealous or bitter? Do you turn green with envy when someone drives by in the car you want? This is a great indicator of misalignment with wealth. Just think about it: would a wealthy person be jealous of another wealthy person, or would they just smile and say 'Hey, nice car!'

The trick, then, is to consciously purge your thoughts of bitterness, and instead cultivate the mindset of the wealthy or should we say "Trick your brain". There is more than enough for everyone in this world, despite appearances. We all have the power to create and allow abundance for ourselves, no matter what our parents did, no matter what our teachers told us, and even if abundance has never been modeled for us. Take control of your thoughts and begin to make them work for you, not against you. Train your mind to think in terms of prosperity for all, and don't let those thoughts out of your head. Use your newfound mental power to focus on what you want and how great it will feel, and your world will begin to conform to your thoughts. It's not always easy, but it is that simple.
