Statistics indicate that the majority of people in the United States, after spending the major part of their lives in work they sometimes don't even enjoy, end up barely able to survive on social security and a small pension, if they have one at all.
Reprogramming your ideas about money will attract it to you far more quickly than working a twelve-hour day and diligently saving every nickel. The road to riches is paved with strong, positive ideas, held constantly in the mind, eventually attracting an abundance of money into your life. Accumulating wealth is the result of an attitude, and not the outcome of hard labor; thus changing your attitude is the key to becoming rich. Your inner feeling about money determines whether or not you will have it, because that to which you give your attention is what manifests in your life.
If you focus attention on the lack of money and the fear of poverty, that is what's reinforced and becomes a reality for you. All human wealth is created by the human mind and those who believe they deserve to be wealthy can create it.
Don't fall into the negative attitude of resenting affluent people, those who have amassed far more than their share. If you resent wealthy people you'll end up resenting yourself when you make money. Focus on the positive; remember that the money you make goes back into the economy to be distributed to others, which helps prosper everyone you buy from or give money to.
Before you can become rich, you must believe that you deserve it. It's impossible to convince your subconscious mind to bring you money if you have been programmed to the idea that you don't deserve it.
Sometimes it's not a fear of success but a fear of failure that prevents people from becoming wealthy. A person may be going along well, accumulating money, and then begins to worry; "I'm making money now, but how long will it last? What if I lost it all?" and so on. You must constantly counteract those negative ideas with positive affirmations such as "I deserve to be wealthy." As soon as you get these thoughts firmly implanted in your consciousness, you have taken a giant step towards achieving wealth.
An affirmation is a strong, positive statement about something you want to manifest in your life. To affirm means to make something firm; thus, by stating your goal in a definite way, you make it more firm to your subconscious mind.
Affirmations are positive signals you send to your brain every time you say them, so that through the law of attraction and vibration, your subconscious can begin working to provide you with whatever you want. Writing down affirmations is an extremely powerful technique for reaching deeply into the subconscious, and is the fastest way to incorporate these ideas into your consciousness. It is far more effective than simply stating your goals. Some of the most dramatic changes occur through using affirmations.
Most people are not successful using affirmations because they already have so many negative ideas about themselves programmed into their subconscious minds that the positive affirmations cannot overcome them. This "poverty consciousness", which may have been with you all your life, will dominate unless you remove all doubt so prosperity consciousness can get a firm foothold. The way to do this is to write down your positive affirmations, and, while you are doing it, listen carefully to your body and your inner feelings for any negative thoughts that negate your affirmation. Write these down, too; then immediately refute them by writing down an opposite response. Keep on this way until you can write the positive affirmation without getting any flak from your mind negating it.
It's advisable to write your affirmations in three persons and always include your own name. Writing it in three persons has the effect of letting your subconscious mind to think others also believe you deserve to be wealthy. For example:
I, [name], deserve to be wealthy and prosperous, and this is coming true for me now.
You, [name], deserve to be wealthy and prosperous, and this is coming true for you now.
She, [name], deserves to be wealthy and prosperous, and this is coming true for her now.
It is best to write a page of affirmations every day. Don't just do it by rote, but really think about and visualize in your minds eye the meaning of the words you write.
You must learn to think abundance constantly and hold steadily to constructive thought. It takes constant vigilance to gain supremacy over the unruly mind. The man or woman who will do this persistently is ensured of tremendous success in every area of life.
