6 Golden Rules for Attracting More Wealth Into Your Life

There are times when we find ourselves in a bottom pit financial difficulty. It’s frustrating because how many people do you know that work only a few hours a week and make fabulous amounts of money. These are not people who believe that having a lot of money comes from working hard day in and day out, but somehow these are the people who are in the top richest percentile of the world’s wealth.

Were they born that way? Some were. But most of them have adopted a mentality that separates themselves from people that earn average to low incomes. Here are reasons why most people have a hard time attracting the kind of wealth they want into their life.

1. There is no shortest of wealth.

Wealth doesn’t have to be labeled in terms of money. Wealth can be labeled in terms of your mind. When you have a wealthy mind, you will manifest wealth in your life. How many wealthy thoughts can you produce in your mind? The answer is you can create an infinite amount of it. There is no shortest to how many wealthy thoughts you can produce in your subconscious. When you start to gather sources from other areas of wealth such as friendship that you value, prized achievements that you have, or even if it’s imagined wealth in your mind, you will start to realize that there is no shortage of it.

2. Don’t lie to yourself.

How many times we gritted our teeth forcefully saying, “I am a millionaire. I am a millionaire. I am prosperous. I am wealthy.” However, it never works. When you say this and you’re in a bad mood, the subconscious mind will pick it right away. This is because we’re focusing on the lack thereof. Yes, if you are not wealthy, of course you are lying to yourself! But this post is about how to transform our thoughts so are lies become real.

This is similar to how criminals do crime over and over and over again, and because they can’t justify their actions through morality, and thus they find a way to change the definition of morality until the can condition their minds enough to tell them that their actions are okay. I’m not advocating criminal, this is just how the mind works.

When you believe something that is obviously not true, you will find it very difficult to make it true when you are in a negative state. By being in a more positive state, it is easier to turn a lie into the truth, because when it down comes to what is – let me repeat this again – when it comes to what is, what matters the most is what you believe is.

3. Spend five minutes a day quietly repeating the word “wealth” to yourself.

There is a difference between the phrase, “I am wealthy” and the word, “wealthy.” When we tell ourselves I am wealthy when we really are not, there is conflict going on within us. The feelings of our body can tell what the difference between what is true and what is not true. But when you say the word “wealth” in peace and quiet, there isn’t supposed to be conflict. The word is just what it is. By taking up some time during the day repeating this word, the purpose is to let whatever thoughts and feelings you get from wealth flow inside your mind and your body. You want to feel comfort when saying the word, not conflict.

The best time to do this is to five minutes before you fall asleep. The key is to listen to your words and allow the words to become thoughts and feelings that seep deep down into your subconsciousness. As your consciousness begins to fade away, your subconscious begins to awaken and will remember the last thing you have told it. By the time you wake up, you should have a feeling that wealth is more achievable, and by doing this everyday, your belief on wealth should slowly transform from “I cannot feel wealth because as it feels very distant to me” to “I can feel wealth as it feels a lot closer to me than before.”

4. Wealth does not happen with contradictory ideas.

When you have suggested to yourself for one day that wealth is achievable, don’t tell yourself the next day that it’s not. When you plant a seed into the ground, you do not dig it up the next day. You add more water to it and let it grow. When it takes the time to grow, you plant more seeds, and within time, you will get more plants, eventually turning into trees, and even a forest.

You don’t want to plant a seed, watch it grow into a tree, burn the tree’s leaves, watch it die, plant another tree, watch it grow, and then burn it down again. You cannot create a forest if you constantly mismanage the way you take care of the seeds, the plants, and the trees. And just like wealth, you cannot create it if suddenly something happens and you just breakdown. The more seeds of wealth you can feed your mind everyday, it will compound into something very massive.

5. It is unnecessary to condemn or criticize other people who are more wealthy than you.

When you see someone deposit a huge bank check into their account are you envious? When see someone driving a brand new BMW and pull up next to your and coming in a tuxedo, do you suddenly want to distance yourself away from them? It’s hard not do so when a certain level of ego that is threatened when our competitors rise above us. This is a sure way of making wealth flow away from you instead of to you.

Instead, help another person gain more wealth because you have enough of it that it doesn’t matter if they do. If they continue to have a degrading attitude towards more unfortunate people, nature will take care of that itself. People do say that rich people are either lucky, or they cheated the system, or that they bad people because they are envious of other their success. Do you ever hear a wealthy person complain about another person having more wealth than them? This would be like a person earning three million dollars complaining about a person who is earning four million dollars. If the wealthy people aren’t the ones blaming other wealthy people, what does this say about the people who are?

Many wealthy people in the world are snobby and arrogant once they have a lot of money. Money does this to people but if you hate them because you have a lot of money, you’re only bringing a negative attitude towards money. Money isn’t at fault here, the fault is in a person’s behavior and decisions. You can use money for bad intentions or you can use money for good purposes. You can use money to spread evil or you can use money to spread love. You can use money to help yourself or you can use money to help the world. Ultimately, that is your decision.

6. Never expect external forces to generate wealth for you.

The Law of Attraction was a bit over-hyped in my opinion. Clips from The Secret were seriously unhealthy for naïve people (I will probably get a lot of flames for this The Secret followers). Also, I’m not calling you naïve, what I mean by naïve is people who are into getting rich quick. Of course their going to go bananas over The Secret!

They love the idea that the quickest way to make money is when you make a wish and have a genie deliver it to you via golden lamp. I’m sorry to say but sitting on a red couch all day thinking about how great that Lamborghini is when you drive it just doesn’t cut it. However, I can’t stop the thousands of people who root and cheer it on. I don’t know what’s going on inside their heads but obsessing over wealth is not going to get you wealth. You need to have a direction. You need to have control. I believe that if you want wealth, you must never let anybody or anything outside of your own body “take care of it for you” – not even the universe.

Your mind is like a bank. If you think pennies and nickels, you will get pennies and nickels. If you think huge paychecks and have enough money to spare, you will get huge paychecks and have enough money to spare. The truest source of wealth consists of the ideas in your mind. The knowledge you have right now on is only limited to what you see around you. You can have an ideal that is worth millions of dollars even when it’s not physically in front of you. Trust in your inner thoughts and feelings about wealth, and your imagination will guide you to how you will get there.

As Albert Einstein once said:

Imagination is more important than knowledge.
