I have been on this planet for what some people would consider
a very long time. Recently, I proved that the statement: “you
are never too old to learn” is actually true. I learned that
wealth is simply a state of mind. All these years I have thought that wealth was determined by the amount of money you had. I also learned that most people (myself included) have unconsciously set limits on the success and wealth they believe they deserve. Wealth is a state of mind because what you believe dictates the type of relationship you have with success—and the wealth that your success produces.
To develop the mind set to become wealthy, you start by training
your mind to achieve the objective. Since most of us grew up
surrounded by a culture of limiting beliefs about money, it is
necessary to develop new ideas about wealth. Most of our beliefs are hand-me-downs from parents, teachers and the media. Normally, we do not simply stop believing something we have believed all of our lives, which is why our mind must be re-trained. We must shift our personal beliefs about money, wealth and success. We must develop a belief system that does not question our ability to achieve any goal we set. This is essential because if your belief system says that you don't deserve to have money, happiness or wealth you'll unconsciously find ways to ensure that you end up with very little or none at all.
The following statement may not be exact, but I once read a question very similar to it: “Are rich people rich because they have a large amount of money, or do they have a large amount of money because they are rich”? Now that I know that wealth is a state of mind, I believe that successful individuals simply developed detailed ways in which to focus their thoughts, intentions and actions to create almost predictable results. The have been trained to understand how to create or manifest the thing that they desire. They first learned
to change the way in which they think about money, consequently wealth and abundance are things that they expect to be a part of their life. Now that I know wealth is a state of mind, I too understand that the focus must be on improving my life, not on money and wealth!
People who have limiting beliefs about money simply have beliefs that don't support their pursuit and attainment of wealth. To achieve wealth, you must want wealth and condition your mind to attract wealth. This can be easily done by simply pushing play on a CD or MP3, close your eyes and relax while your unconscious mind goes to school and masters the art of attraction. This hypnotic experience takes you to the edge of sleep and connects with the brainwaves which are capable higher levels of being. While in a deep state of relaxation you will
began to change your mind, change the way you think, and feel about wealth and abundance.
I have never seen or read any where that only certain people are
capable of experiencing wealth. I believe that it is safe to assume that abundance is possible for all of us. We simply must learn to develop a wealthy mind and begin to “manifest” the money, love and good health that up to now we have believed was not possible. Now that I know that wealth is a state of mind I believe that with the proper training we can rearrange the unconscious mind and achieve all of the goals we set.
