Are you one of those people, who everytime they get a compliment, they respond with a compliment too?
Or something self-deprecative. Like, someone compliments your shirt. Do you say, “this old thing?” Stop. Please stop.
You’re not doing yourself any favors. Be open to receiving. Just because. You don’t need to earn it. You don’t need to put yourself down for having it easy. You don’t need to tie yourself to one thing.
Don’t box off avenues for abundance and money in your life by being polite. Accept! With a smile, and deep appreciation.
You’re worth it, and more. Just because.
Step 4: Imagine it
Honestly, this should be number one. Look, I’m always going to say this, because I know it to be true: imagination is everything.
I’ve had times where I entered a bad deal, or got some bad news. Immediately, I stop what I’m doing, relax, and then picture a scene where what I wanted happened.
I can’t tell you how often I’ve received double or triple what others would say I “lost.”
How? Just by imagining different. Know that the world is yours, and it will mold itself according to what you imagine it.
Imagine the wealthy, rich version of yourself. Then…
Step 5: Become it.
How? There’s no process to this, not really. Just be the person with all the money you desire.
What would you think about your bills? About investing in real estate? When you go to the store, would you buy the peanut butter on sale, or the one you prefer?
The rich version of you would go for what they want. This doesn’t mean you should begin to spend it like crazy when you don’t have.
It’s okay if you don’t have the cold, hard cash right then. Just know just because it’s not there, doesn’t mean it’s not there.
You think the Uber Rich you cares how much peanut butter is? Thought not.
Step 6: Get comfortable
We’ve talked about how assuming your new persona (the rich you) can feel uncomfortable or weird in the beginning.
Like putting on a new suit. (ok not the best example, but you get what I mean.)
All you have to do is practice being in the state of a rich person.
In the beginning, you might notice yourself speaking, thinking, feeling, or acting in ways that don’t match up to Rich You.
Don’t beat yourself up. It’s a good thing you noticed. Simply shift back into the rich state of mind and being.
Step 7: Imagine
Yes, this was mentioned before. I mention it again, because it’s important. Imagine being congratulated on your success.
Imagine taking your family and friends out for a lavish dinner at an expensive restaurant – and paying!
Imagine tipping the waiter twice or thrice the bill, for kicks. Imagine, imagine, imagine.
Step 8: KNOW It Is Done
When you’ve made yourself comfortable with being rich, by imagining yourself in that position, there is nothing left to do, but to know it is done.
So when a new bill comes in, there’s no need to panic. You trust it is taken care of. You do the best you can in that moment about it.
But, let’s say you get the bill, and you feel that tiny bit of anxiety eating at you. Then follow this next step.
Step 9: Revise
Revision is a lovely tool for changing your life. Trust me, I know.
I revise all the bad stuff that happened throughout the day. Then at night, Just before bed, I make it a point to go over my day and change the bad to good.
I also revise on the spot too, when I get news I don’t like, or have an experience I don’t care for.
I just slip into a relaxed, thoughtless space, and then replace what happened with the picture I prefer. Then I come out of it and go about my day.
Countless miracles have come of this!
It’s okay if you’re kicked out of the state of feeling like you’re wealthy. But when you notice, simply get back in, and then REVISE that.
If you saw a bill and panicked, go back, see the bill again, in your mind’s eye. See yourself being cavalier about it. Even better, see yourself making the payment there and then, a smile on your face!
The best part about revision, is not only can you revise the bad stuff and make it good – but you can revise the good and make it better!
Revision is a powerful tool. Use it as much as you like, and have fun!
What’s in your bank account? Don’t like it? Revise it! What’s your credit score? What kind of house do you live in? Whatever it is you can think of, can always be better.
This stuff works. I know that for a fact. It works – if you work it.
There ya go!
