Dump The Junk…in your money mindset

Not enough money coming in? That is the #1 excuse people give me for why they are holding off on their dreams. #2 is “not enough time” and BOTH stem from a lack mentality. In order to truly feel wealthy, you have to feel abundant. No, you have to KNOW you are abundant, that there will always been enough for those things that are important to you.

But society, family culture, and advertising teach us that we are not enough. We don’t have enough, there isn’t enough to go around and there is limited supply. This is a fear-based tactic…focus on the lack. This thinking is called emotional junk. And when you “see” the junk, you are empowered to dump the junk! And dumping the “life junk” is the fastest route to happiness, based on the principle that you have to make room for new fresh stuff to come in and that means clearing out the old thoughts and beliefs that aren’t working.

This works for everything! It is especially true for money and wealth mindset. If you know anything about the Law of Attraction (LoA) you know that focusing on lack only brings about more lack. Try something new and focus on the abundance in your life.

Living a prosperous, wealthy life doesn’t mean having lots of money. It is much larger than that. However, money is a big part of it. If you want wealth, think wealthy thoughts!

Here are 3 ways to dump the junk (the fear and lack mindset) and replace it with a thriving, abundant mindset:

1. Look around at everything you already own. Focus on the value of what you have in your life already. If you want to go a step further and really feel the wealthy, go through and place a post-it note with the price you paid on everything. TV, furniture, appliances, shoes, handbags, computers, cell phones, do this for anything and everything. You’ll see very quickly how much value you already hold in your life, especially if you’re really focused on the price tag of things.
2. “Act Rich”. This requires that you first get to the bottom of what you think “rich” people act like. Everyone has a different definition. Some people see wealth as having a lot of nice fluffy towels, or expensive sheets to sleep on. And others view it as always being well groomed and having nice manners. What does wealth mean to you? Then act like it, without spending money. Make the effort to put on makeup in the morning, give yourself a pedicure, clean your house, wax your car…anything you need to do feel “rich.”
3. Create a Wealth List. List 10 things in your life that you are thankful for, relating to money. Thankful for a job that pays your bills, thankful for health insurance, thankful for a warm, comfortable bed, whatever it is, WRITE IT DOWN! Do this every evening for 10 days and see how your perspective has changed.

Those are just a few ways for you to change your perspective on wealth and money. Remember that “wealth” doesn’t just mean having lots of money, it includes family, friends, sense of community, health and well-being too! Focus on all the ways you’re already wealthy, and you realize that you don’t need anything else. That is when you have dumped the junk…and ARE happy. This is an ongoing process. Even the best in personal development understand that life is about the journey, not the destination and that growth in continual.
