DAY FOUR
How
to Instantly Change Your Limiting Beliefs
You
have decided to change. You have committed to taking action. You have
decided upon a financial goal.
Now:
in order to re-program your mind to accept higher levels of prosperity,
you must discover what beliefs have limited your experience in the past,
and you must consciously decide to change those beliefs.
If you
do not realize it already, by the end of these thirty days it should
be clear: your beliefs attract to you the life you experience. It is
not your
intelligence, your education, or your circumstances that have left you
financially unsatisfied, but your limiting beliefs about what it means
to have financial freedom.
Sound
strange? Ask yourself these questions, and answer them as honestly as
you can. Remember, nothing is hidden from your conscious mind; if you
search, you will find your limiting beliefs.
What negative
associations do you have regarding excess money? Do you feel that having
money is a sign of shallowness, or that rich people are stingy or greedy?
Do you feel that wealth will cause conflict in your life? Will it ruin
some of your friendships? Would having too much money mean too much
responsibility?
Whatever
it is, you must find what has held you back from financial independence
and you must, consciously, decide to change this belief. Ask yourself
why you are not satisfied financially. What beliefs have held you back?
Try to
get at your core belief about money. For example, a core belief for
many people is money is the root of all evil. Around this
belief develop many subsidiary beliefs that would automatically fall
away if the core belief were changed.
You must
realize that money is not good or evil, but is a tool for expressing
your creative energy in the physical world. Realize that you are a good
person who will use money for the good of many. Realize that you are
evolving to a new level in your emotional, psychological, and spiritual
development, and that financial abundance will allow the full expression
of your evolved, more expansive personality.
Take five
minutes right now and feel the truth of these words:
MY
FORMER BELIEFS WERE A DELUSION CREATED BY THE LIMITED BELIEFS OF OUR
SOCIETY. I NOW REALIZE THAT MONEY IS A SYMBOL OF MY CREATIVE ENERGY,
AND AS MY ENERGY EVOLVES, ABUNDANCE WILL AUTOMATICALLY INFUSE MY LIFE.
TAKE
ACTION: Take two minutes to write down all the limiting beliefs
you can recognize that you have regarding having excess wealth. Try
to discover what your overriding, core belief regarding
money is. Change this belief into a positive, and affirm the new belief
for a few minutes. For example, if your core belief is it is difficult
to make money, simply change it to it is easy to make money.
Repeat this statement for several minutes right now, and whenever you
feel a negative thought regarding money.
QUOTE
OF THE DAY: The time must come when you will satisfy
a need for money by steadfastly depending on the Master Self withinand
not on anything in the outer world of form. --John Randolph
