One of the most challenging aspects of creating abundance is learning how to overcome all of the negative thoughts you've developed about money so far. You probably already know that you need to stay focused on abundance in order to create it in your life. You need to create a new "abundance mentality" to replace your old "scarcity mentality".
But how can you do this? Exactly what are you supposed to do when those old negative thoughts keep taking over your mind again and again?
Developing an abundance mentality can be achieved best by the power of repetition and persistence. Don't disregard the "persistence" part of that formula; it's important! A lot of people don't realize that they have to put forth quite a bit of effort to change their thoughts at first, and once they've done that consistently for a few days, THEN the process gets much easier. But you have to work on it consistently for a little while first.
To get you started, here is a simple two-step plan for developing an abundance mentality:
First, it's important to use the power of repetition to your advantage. Take a sheet of paper or an index card, and write this statement on it: "I am abundant in every way." Carry this slip of paper with you over the next few days, and say the statement out loud many times each day. Each time you say the words, do your best to tune into the FEELINGS that they inspire. What does it really feel like to BE abundant in every way? Does that thought make you feel uplifted, happy, free, excited? Stay tuned into these feelings for a few minutes each time you recite the statement.
At the same time, make sure you don't contradict your new abundance mentality.
That means not complaining about money, not feeling frustrated about money, not investing your attention and energy into financial negativity in any form. Oh, you will be tempted! These scarcity-focused actions are probably strong habits for you, so you'll need to start breaking the habits immediately. Otherwise you'll keep splitting your intention between a scarcity mentality and an abundance mentality.
When you catch yourself complaining about money, stop and reinforce your abundance mentality again: "I am abundant in every way." When you catch yourself worrying about money, reinforce your abundance mentality again: "I am abundant in every way." When you catch yourself feeling jealous about someone's good fortune, do it again. Keep saying your abundance mentality statement over and over and over - and it WILL begin to sink in.
Does that seem too simple to you? It really IS simple! You'll have to put forth some decent effort at the beginning, but in a short period of time you'll start to see the results. Just keep in mind that when it comes to creating abundance, you have to be consistent and persistent. If you aren't, your results are going to show that lack of commitment.
