Law of Attraction: Expect What You Want

One of the most important steps in consciously using the Law of Attraction is learning to change our expectations. Why? Because the Universe delivers exactly what we expect to see. Our expectations are formed on the foundation of our existing beliefs.

If we believe ourselves to be lacking financially, we will expect to see a bigger proportion of bills than income - and the universe delivers. If we believe we are sick, overweight or weak, we expect to feel pain and fatigue - and the universe delivers. If we believe ourselves to be unworthy of love, we expect not to be loved - and guess what the universe delivers?
Think back to the experiences you've had in your past and ask yourself if you got what you were expecting. Have you ever uttered statements like these?

I just can't get ahead!I'm so sick of struggling.Everything always goes wrong for me.If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.This is too good to be true, something's going to go wrong.
Words like these are actually self-fulfilling prophesies. You are, in effect, placing your order with the universe at the moment you begin feeling the feelings behind the words (yes, even before you SPEAK the words!). The universe doesn't care what words you use, it pays attention to your vibrations - the energetic signal you're sending out. That signal is formed by your beliefs and expectations.

So how do we change our expectations? Is it possible? Absolutely!

One of the most powerful things you can begin doing is consciously expecting the best. Throughout the course of your day, take a few moments to pause and expect something wonderful. Say to yourself, "Today is going to be a great day!" Try to find the positive expectation in every experience. If your boss asks to speak with you privately, rather than expecting him to reprimand or fire you, expect him to praise you and give you a pay raise! Rather than expecting to see bills in your mailbox when you get home, expect to see a check.
The more you can keep this feeling of happy expectation in your heart, the more often you will see results that directly mirror your expectations.

Does it sound unbelievable? Far-fetched? Try this little experiment:

Before leaving your home one morning, say to yourself, "Sometime today I will see the image of a bumblebee (or any image you choose - it should be something you wouldn't ordinarily see during your daily activities). I choose to attract this image into my awareness, and it will jump out at me so I don't miss it. I KNOW I will see this bumblebee, and that will prove to me that my expectations DO affect my experiences." As you speak these words, infuse them with power and conviction! Believe with all of your heart that you will indeed attract this image to yourself. Then let go of it and continue with your day like usual.

If you don't see the image you've chosen, you know you didn't put enough power and faith into your expectation!

The first time I tried this experiment, it didn't work for me. Looking back, I'm aware that I didn't really BELIEVE I would see a bumblebee. I hoped I would, but I was doubtful. Still, I decided to try again the next day. That's when I really energized my expectation with unshakable faith and conviction. I was DETERMINED to see a bumblebee sometime during my day, and I wouldn't accept any other outcome. Boy did I get what I asked for! All that day, I saw bumblebees wherever I went. Bumblebee logos on passing trucks, references to bees mentioned on the radio, a cashier wearing a bumblebee pin when I did some shopping, and my husband watching a television special on bees when I got home!

Once you begin to see that you can influence your experiences even in small ways, imagine the sense of empowerment you'll feel when you decide to expect something better in the bigger aspects of your life. Try it, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised!

It's Easy to Earn Money

by Bob Proctor

Most people spend their entire lives trading their time for money and never amass the financial fortune available to them. They never invest the time to learn the basics of how to multiply their income.

Just about everything you've been taught about how to earn money is so far from the truth that it's almost comical. Earning money has nothing to do with age, formal education, gender, or geography. It has nothing to do with past experience or your level of intellect. There are individuals who are functionally illiterate and have become multimillionaires, while there are others who are absolutely brilliant — and broke!

Virtually anyone can be taught how to earn millions of dollars and yet, the sad truth is that 97 out of every 100 people born on this planet live their entire lives and die without EVER learning how to earn money. To perpetuate this ridiculous problem, their ignorance is passed along from one generation to the next. They're not stupidly ignorant — that's not what I'm saying here — they're simply ignorant to the truths of earning money.

Our school system has been designed as an environment to enlighten young minds, to replace ignorance with understanding and thereby improve the quality of life. Our educational system has obviously been successful in many areas. However, it has woefully neglected one important subject: “How to Earn Money.”

You can actually earn a doctorate degree in Economics and have little or no knowledge of how to earn money. A lack of understanding in this area is the cause of numerous problems, since money is the medium of exchange used worldwide.

There has always been a small, select group — approximately 3% of our population — that clearly understands that prosperity consciousness is the primary cause of wealth. This group also understands that prosperity consciousness — like ignorance — is also passed down from one generation to the next.

Let's Look At “Money.” What Is It?

1. Money is a reward you receive for the service you render.

The more valuable the service, the greater your monetary reward. Thinking of ways you can be of greater service will not only help you earn more money, it will also enable you to grow intellectually and spiritually.

2. Money is just an idea.

The paper you fold and place in your purse or pocket is not money. It is paper with ink on it. It represents money, but it is not money. Money is an idea. The earning of money has nothing to do with the paper stuff. It has to do with consciousness. It has to do with spirit.

I am aware there are books that instruct you on how to manipulate the market, stocks and people ... they might even help you get money. But, let me caution you ... where there is no spiritual consciousness as to how money works ... there is no spiritual strength ... there is no lasting happiness ... and, as a result, there is no real wealth.

3. To accumulate wealth, a person must become very comfortable with the idea of money.

That may sound strange, however most people are not comfortable with the idea of money, which is why they do not have any. The cause of poverty is poverty consciousness. A poverty consciousness will cause a person to see, hear, smell, think, and feel lack and limitation.

The late Mike Todd said, "Being broke is a temporary situation. Being poor is a mental state." He was correct. There are wealthy people who lose every cent they have through a series of mistakes in judgment ... but that does not make them poor. They will have it all back in a short time because of their prosperity consciousness.

Here's How to Earn More Money

If you have any question in your mind regarding your level of consciousness with respect to money, be very honest with yourself and look at your results. Study the patterns in your life.

If you want to improve your financial position in life, focus your attention on creating a higher level of prosperity consciousness. Begin by preparing a powerful, positive affirmation and fuel it with emotion. When you do this, you are depositing this creative energy in the treasury of your subconscious mind. And, by repeating this process over and over and over again every day, it will begin to alter your mental conditioning and mentally move you in the direction you want to go.

Write it out, read it, feel it, and let it take hold of your mind.

How much money do you want? Saying “I want more money” is not good enough. Five dollars is more! How much more do you really want? Decide on a figure. Be specific. You will not seriously want more money than you are capable of earning ... however, you would be wise to remember ... you must earn it.

Now, Understand the Three Ways to Earn Money

There are just three key strategies for earning money. They are as follows:

1. Trading time for money.

By far the worst of the three income earning strategies, it is employed by approximately 96 percent of our population — doctors, lawyers, accountants, laborers, etc. This is the method by which you must continue to put in more of your time in order to make more money. When you are not working ... you are not earning.

There is an inherent problem with this strategy — saturation. You run out of time. If a person accumulates any degree of wealth employing this strategy, it will be at the expense of a life.

2. Investing money to earn money.

This strategy is used by approximately three percent of the population. The number is small for the obvious reason — very few people have any money to invest. Many people who effectively employ this strategy follow the advice of a trusted, knowledgeable advisor.

3. Leveraging yourself to earn money.

This is where you multiply your time through the efforts of others by setting up multiple sources of income. This is, without question, the very best way to increase your income.

Allow me to explain this concept a bit further. Imagine you've been a teacher for several years and have received accolades from your principal, other teachers, and parents about the creative curriculum you provide your students. As you continue to teach daily, you're simply earning money by trading your time for money, correct? But, imagine at the same time taking those curriculum lessons and creating an inexpensive website that allows you to sell your curriculum lessons to other teachers around the world. As others purchase your curriculum, you're effectively multiplying your income through the “efforts” of others.

That's LEVERAGE!

When people ask me to help them with this “leveraging” concept, I suggest they give themselves time to really think about the following:

Think of how you can do whatever you do more effectively.

Think of how you can improve the quality and quantity of service you render.

Think of how you can help people in a greater way.

Now, in the teaching example I just gave you, you were beginning to sell your own curriculum, which improves the quantity of the service you render. Perhaps, instead, you choose to actually teach the curriculum and record that in either an audio or video format that can also be purchased through the Internet. In so doing, you're multiplying the quantity of the service you render in a completely different mode.

There are countless companies and opportunities already poised to help you multiply your time as long as you're willing to look at the world differently. For example, people who wish to get their message out quickly and effectively to a global audience can turn to publishing companies, such as Nightingale-Conant, Simon & Schuster, HarperCollins and dozens more, for distribution, marketing, and access to new customers. As these publishers increase their business, they also increase their authors' incomes. This is by no means a simple task, and it is just one example that, once accomplished, will multiply your income for years to come.

What opportunities do you have to multiply your income?

What can you do in your area of expertise that will create another stream of income for you?

What can you teach ... what do you spend your free time doing that could actually become a source of income for you as you bring others into that very same hobby or activity?

What do you provide in your day-to-day service that might prove an excellent joint venture for some body else out there? Find them and approach them with your great income-leveraging idea!
Multiplying your income through the use of leverage is a strategy that wealthy people have employed since the time of the ancient Babylonians. Unfortunately, this strategy is only used by approximately one percent of our population, yet that one percent earns approximately 96 percent of all the money that is earned! See how easily YOU can become part of that one percent? Now you know how!

Here's how I would suggest you start determining your multiple streams of income: First, determine exactly how much money you want to earn. Write it down on a sheet of paper in large figures. Look at the number and tell yourself over and over again:

“This amount of money is an EFFECT. It represents a reward that I want to receive. What service can I render that would be deserving of that reward?

Then, take the total figure and divide it into multiple parts. Each part would represent a source of income. Each source of income represents a separate reward that you will receive for a service you would render.

Work on one source of income at a time. Each one should become an exciting part of your life. You see, what you are actually doing is thinking of different ways you can be of service to others.

Remember — money IS the ultimate servant. As you help others, you earn more. And, as you earn more, the more you can help others. Now that's prosperity consciousness!
