Relax - It's Safe For You to Prosper!

This article is dedicated to those good people who deserve to prosper but are afraid to do so. If you are someone who always seems to struggle with money, even when there doesn't appear to be a good reason for doing so, you may find this article enlightening.

Are you always struggling to get by with less money than you need to meet your bills and put food on the table? And has your life been this way for as long as you can remember?

Do you notice even when external circumstances seem ideal your financial reality remains predictably bleak? Have you found that things can be lined up perfectly for a new job, a winning business deal, or some other form of cash windfall, only to completely fall apart at the last minute?

If you answered yes, please take a minute to carefully consider this next question. Clear your mind, relax, and prepare to be completely honest with yourself on this very important matter.

When you think about receiving $5,000 tax-free right now, how do you feel? Seriously imagine I am about to just hand you the money and assess how you really feel about that.

Maybe you got excited. Maybe you felt legitimate joy and expansion.

Or, it's possible that a knot formed in your stomach. You could have noticed instant tension in your shoulders and a feeling of confusion, or even dread.

Did you experience these or other negative feelings and physical sensations? It's really important that you are honest with yourself when answering this question.

If you felt absolutely fabulous when visualizing your newfound prosperity that's good. In fact you might not even need to finish this article because it likely does not apply to you.

However, if you noticed a reflexive and negative reaction to the mere thought of receiving a healthy dose of money it means you probably have deeply rooted fears of change and success. Here are a couple of other qualifying questions for you:

Whenever you are close to receiving a big check - like maybe a tax refund - or some other form of financial relief like a pay raise at work, do you ever experience a strange sense of guilt or worry? When you might expect yourself to be overjoyed and excited about making financial progress, do you instead become disconnected, irritable, and even depressed?

The fact is many people have this experience. You are not alone, and you are absolutely not crazy or deranged.

If you can honestly identify these feelings, the fact is you have made an enormous leap in your personal development. Most people never admit to feeling sad, frightened, or otherwise upset by the idea of receiving money and/or financial abundance.

And yet it's probable that millions of people suffer from a very real fear of prosperity. How and why can this be?

For one thing, plenty of money is a big change for people who are used to struggling and scraping by. You may not be happy living in poverty, but at least it's normal and familiar to you; drastic change in this area of your life can easily be scary or unpleasant.

Consider that over 80% of lottery winners (and nearly 100% of winners who came from serious poverty) lose all of their jackpot money on average within just two years. These people are shell shocked by the change and will blow their cash on just about anything to get back to a "normal", comfortable feeling.

Also, there is the issue of being worthy or unworthy. You may very well not feel like you deserve to have more than enough money to pay your bills, have fun, and even help others with your excess cash flow.

It's important to recognize that whatever the specific cause of your fear and discomfort about financial success, as long as you feel this way it will be virtually impossible to have plenty of money in your life. You'll keep finding unconscious ways to sabotage yourself, or you'll simply scare the energy of money away from you on a consistent basis.

So how can you change? How can you stop being scared of prosperity?

You've already started. By simply acknowledging this issue you have opened the door to releasing it.

There are many good methods for building your positive prosperity consciousness. But your first step is to simply be aware of your fears and discomforts; catch yourself being upset when you think about having plenty and sit with the thoughts and feelings until they subside.

Begin to affirm to yourself that it's completely safe for you to have more than enough. Look at people who have plenty of money and tell yourself quite honestly that you are as good and smart as those folks. Smile as you think about money; enjoy the way paper money feels in your hands and love the way it smells.

As you begin to change how you feel about money you'll literally be inviting more of it to enter your life. Within a few short months your financial life can be completely renewed if you continue to release your fears and come to believe that is both safe and good for you to have more than enough prosperity in your life.

Always remember you have absolute power to manifest reality as you choose it to be. It may take some practice, but the more you learn about the basics of quantum physics and the law of attraction the more you'll understand it is your nature to attract and create the reality you intend to experience!

Law of Abundance - Expect Miracles in Your Daily Life

The simple key to attracting abundance in all areas of your life is to expect miracles. This shift in your mindset will engage the law of abundance and fill your life with blessings beyond your wildest dreams.

You've heard of the law of attraction. I like to use the term law of abundance when talking about intentional manifestation because this shifts the consciousness to a prosperity vibration.

The key to attracting the abundance you desire in life lies in your ability to expect great things. This is true whether you want to manifest wealth, loves, health, or anything else.

Law of attraction says we manifest that which we focus our thoughts and feelings on. So we can engage the law of abundance by thinking and feeling abundantly, and by filling our minds with images of prosperity.

But most of all, we can create abundance in our lives by expecting miracles to be a part of our daily life.

It's easy to get caught up in results-oriented thinking patterns. In other words we set a goal, take action to achieve that goal, and become obsessed with things working out exactly the way we have visualized them.

But the problem with this approach is that our ego minds can only see a small portion of reality. So we limit ourselves to only that which we can conceptualize.

But the universe, the divine mind or whatever you'd like to call the force from which all things come, can obviously see things that are beyond our ability to perceive. This matters because often, great blessings come to us in a form we never even imagined possible.

So instead of becoming obsessed with a highly specific outcome, we need to be open to great things coming to us even in unexpected ways. In other words we need to expect miracles and wonderful surprises to be a normal part of our life.

By not being too attached to the outcome, we are free to allow creation plenty of room to manifest abundance in all areas of our life. This is crucial to attracting a life of happiness, but it requires us to let go of our need to control everything and trust creation to care for us.

Practice expecting miracles in your everyday life. Reject the idea that you must settle for "realistic" goals and begin to cultivate faith in the idea that amazing surprises await you around every corner.

A key step in this process is to begin recognizing the miracles you are already experiencing. Odds are there are some pretty amazing things in your life right now.

It's fine to want even more blessings, but if you begin to focus and give thanks for the wonderful people and fantastic opportunities that are already a part of your life you'll find new miracles will occur even faster. It's awesome how life will begin to unfold for you when you develop a faith in everyday miracles.

And it's important to note that miracles are not limited to healing the sick and parting the Red Sea. A real-life miracle happens every time circumstances and people align to deliver the results you desire.

You can have fun using the law of attraction and do your part to make the world a better place for everyone! Learn to allow miracles in your daily life starting right now and you'll be amazed by what happens next.
