How to get Rich

Having more money is on top of everyone’s wish list. People buy lottery tickets hoping to become instant millionaires. Some read books written by the rich hoping to gain some insight about how to make their first million. Others succumb to get-rich-quick scams all because the idea of receiving loads of money is just too hard to resist. Some gain money very easily while others seem to earn little no matter how hard they try.

What accounts for the difference? Is it just pure luck? Or is there a universal formula that anyone can use to create more wealth?

It really is all in the mind. Generally, every positive action starts out as a powerful thought. The more you think about something, the more you believe in it. Beliefs motivate you to act. And actions have consequences. All you need to figure out is what kind of thought stimulates the inflow of wealth.

To have more money, you have to attract it with your thoughts. If you think that becoming rich is just an impossible dream, then you are not likely to receive more wealth because of your thoughts. It is the universal law of attraction that is at work, even in the material world of finances. It’s all about having the right attitude.

Here’s how:

Change your attitude about money

Instead of believing that you need to move mountains to become rich, try telling yourself that “money comes easily and frequently.” Say that often to yourself and believe in it. If there is any doubt at all about how easy money can flow into your life, that doubt will attract a negative force that prevents you from creating wealth.

Be a cheerful giver

Money begets money. The universe works according to a natural process of filling and emptying. To get more money, you have to give money. But the act of giving has to come from your heart; otherwise, the law of attraction will view the gift of money as a mere sacrifice, or an act that affirms your lack of money. Giving more money is a positive act that strongly shows your belief that money comes to you easily. The universal law of attraction will work by responding to your outflow with an inflow, oftentimes greater than what you give out.

Visualize receiving money

Ask and you shall receive. That is how the universe works. Junk all conservative thoughts about money. Refrain from thinking that the world does not owe you material favors. It is this negative attitude about the world working against you that prevents you from reaping all that the world has to offer.Starting today, picture yourself surrounded with earmarks of wealth and feel it. Change your negative attitude about money. Feel the excitement. Wealth may be on its way.
