Attracting Money Into Your Life, Or Not

You have heard the saying, "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer." It almost sounds unfair until you realize that what we think about comes about. Those who are rich are constantly thinking about riches. Those who are poor are constantly thinking about poverty. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

If you do not have all the money you want in your life, it's because you are using the Law of Attraction in reverse. It's not the state of the economy, it's not the market, and it's not some outside force. It is because you are focused on what you don't want, instead of what you do want.

That may be a tough truth to accept but the Law of Attraction teaches us that we attract more of what we focus on. If our beliefs, assumptions, thoughts, ideas, and notions result in an expectation of scarcity, lack, or poverty, then that is exactly what our life will look like.

Here's the truth. We are the ones responsible for having or not having enough. We must accept this fact before we can move on. If we are experiencing financial lack, it is because we are serving our negative thoughts.

It's like creating a monster. If you create a monster, eventually the monster turns on you.

Here in Florida every once in a while you come across someone who tries to make a pet out of an Alligator. It always ends badly, usually with the owner being attacked at some point. Alligators are wild creatures and they don't make good pets. They will turn on you. Our negative thoughts about money turn against us and bring us scarcity and lack.
