Understanding How Money Works
This is the dreaded topic no one likes to discuss, but I promise this won’t hurt. We won’t be administering any shots or pulling teeth. Before we continue though, let’s do a quick recap. Previously, we talked about the importance of surrounding yourself with people who have what you want. This is important because you can’t spend your time with people who bring you down when you want to go higher.
I’m not suggesting you dump your friends, but I am suggesting you consider the nature of your environment. It is a fact that your salary falls within a certain percentage of the people you spend most of your time with. Think about how the people around you relate to money. Are they enjoying financial freedom or do they constantly complain about being broke?
You need to come to a clearer picture of how money works and learn from those who have achieved the kind of success that you want for yourself. These people must be doing something right; spend time with these people and learn what you can from them.
Wealthy people know that money is nothing more than a form of energy ? they know that when you think about money in the right way, it will be drawn to you. Many think that the only way to get to financial freedom is to work long and hard ? but there’s more to it than that.
To attract money, you have to have a good relationship with it. Since money is a form of energy, all you have to do is be able to attract it to you. This energy is all around you, waiting to be tapped into.
This is the secret that the wealthy understand and the major principle that separates the wealthy from the poor. And this is why it’s important to feel good about what you do for a living, because the better you feel about it, the better your relationship to the money aspect of working becomes. Let me explain.
If you want to become successful and financially independent, you need to feel good about what you do for a living. People who are successful are so in large part because they love what they do. You can make money doing some thing which you don’t like, of course; but this will always should you back from being as successful as you want to be. This is because you are doing something which is at odds with your real goals for your life.
Secondly, spend time with people who make a lot of money and observe them. You will find out quickly that their energy, actions and words are probably very different from your own. You won’t hear a wealthy person say, “I can’t afford that.” That’s because they understand that money is nothing more than energy ? there’s no such thing as not having enough. It simply comes down to how they feel about money. The wealthy feel good about money; the poor worry about money. In both cases, their relationship (or energy alignment) determines how much or little they have.
The goal is to find a way to feel good about money in whatever way you can. When you feel good about money and have a positive relationship with it, you will absolutely attract it.
