Many people were taught that once you get clear on what you desire and align your beliefs with your desires, then you can relaxâŠit will come to you, no need to be in the âarenaââŠ.
At least thatâs what many LOA mindset coaches and seminars still teach.
Some religious and New Age manifesters get so hyped about the metaphysical, spiritual aspects of our existence that they ONLY rely on and wait for God to take care of them.
Iâve met a few spiritual coaches and religious women who felt that they donât need to do anything to live the life of their dreams, everything will be taken care ofâŠ.
They âoutsourcedâ their financial responsibility to the Higher Power untilâŠthey faced serious financial challenges.
I had a client who was a pastor. When things were good, she was riding high, investing in her church, spending money on cars and furnitureâŠ. Everything was going fabulous. The only problem was that she didnât have any savingsâŠ.
When the US economy tanked in 2009 and her church was not able to support her lifestyle, she got really discouraged and âoutsourcedâ her financial responsibility toâŠGod.
She waited⊠hoping and prayingâŠuntil she and her family lost their home.
Very sad.
Obviously, itâs an extreme.
And there is another extreme.
I am talking about the âold schoolâ of making a living and receiving.
I donât know about you but I heard from my parents again and again that âhard work and struggle are to be expected in order to succeed in life.â
People on this other end of the beliefs’ spectrum are focused on HOW more than anything else and often get paralyzed by the HOW conundrum.
These folks assume that a âsurvival modeâ is to be expected, and often feel exhausted and overwhelmed by their endless To-Do list.
I trust YOU realize that youâve got to have a happy medium.
You must do what you can with what you’ve got at the moment, because the Universe will not do it for youâŠit will do it WITH you!
You can thrive in the physical world as well as apply the spiritual principals like âThoughts create thingsâ and âWhat you focus on, expands.â
And that brings us to theÂ
So, what needs to take place for you to RECEIVE Financial Wealth?
1. Make a Decision and Commit to it wholeheartedly.
In other words, you must first decide that you TRULY want to live prosperously and commit to it.
Face itâŠâŠ.a few times in the past you said âI want to make more money; I want to be wealthyâ!
Yet not much changedâŠ. YES?
You must be sick and tired of your OLD STORY, of the small and powerless version of youâŠ
Youâve got to get inspired and energized by your desires, your dream life. Thatâs why I emphasize the commitment to yourself.
2. Manage any resistance that may come up.
Resistance often happens once you start making changes. It may show up in self-doubts, fear, procrastination, anxiety, self-criticismâŠ. The key is not letting your resistance derail or stop you…. Youâve got to keep going.
3. Take Action and do what you can with what youâve got at the moment.
You may need to upgrade your skills, or get a new job, or change your money habits, or get a coach, or meditate and exercise daily, etc. Donât wait for SOME day â baby steps in the right direction will create a forward-moving momentum in your life. THAT is how you leap forward!
4. You must GIVE in order to RECEIVE.
Giving is a form of action when you apply your talents, knowledge and experience to make impact in the world and, in the process, receive the financial reward. The bigger the impact of your actions, the bigger the reward.
5. Expand your Capacity to RECEIVE.
Some people have inner blocks that prevent them from receiving wealth and abundance. They lack the capacity to RECEIVE.
These folks have been conditioned (through family, religious or cultural programming) to give yet have challenges with receiving.
When they receive money, they feel that they need to spend or give it away.Â
They donât feel that they deserve to be wealthy.
Or they simply donât feel that itâs possible for them to be wealthy â even when they get money, they assume that it will not last.
Some donât believe that anyone will be willing to pay them for their services. They donât feel that they are good enoughâŠ.
And sadly, many link their perception of self-worth to âhavingâ or ânot havingâ money. These feelings trigger such emotions as sadness, fear, gilt, shameâŠ.
If âhavingâ or ânot havingâ money is linked to your perception of self-worth and confidence â you will experience a continuous roller coaster and you will feel defeated and weak.
You must internalize your true specialness â your divine specialness, something that you donât need to show, to prove or to defend.
And coming from that place, you can choose to see money as a spiritual mirror and driving force of your creativity.
This will help you see everything in a better perspective and become more grounded and successful.
One more thing about expanding your capacity to receiveâŠ
Practice ALLOWING instead of chasing and forcing.Â
Once you OPEN YOUR MIND AND HEART TO THE POSSIBILITY that YOU CAN co-create whatever you want in your life, abundance will flow to, through, and from you naturally.
Donât outsource your well-being to anyone or anything. YOU are the captain of your life. Â
