"I Don't have _____" (Day 9: 3/9/10)

What is the good news?

Hi! I have to tell you, today has been such a fantastic day! I went to a New Age shop with my sister and got some cool stuff, I visited my mother at her job, and went to see the new Tim Burton movie. Oh, and I went to the bookstore and got a book pack of Jerry and Esther Hicks books!

A bit of money spending...

I had a bit of a nagging voice in the back of my head. "You can't afford this. You shouldn't spend this money, or else you won't have the money you need for later." Nagging me, nagging me constantly. I picked up and put back that book pack several times. Battling with myself.

So let's talk about the power of words here.

Those who are familiar with the Law of Attraction know that the Universe functions on vibrations, not words. So if you say, "I don't want to see red cars!" The vibration you are sending out is red cars. So guess what you will see???

Yup. Red cars. Vroom.

Applying this to my nagging voices, me saying "I don't have any money" sends out the vibration of 'lack of money' so guess what happens? Yup, I would continue to get my paycheck every week, spend for gas, and then not have any money to spend. I want to change that. Right now. So that is why I picked up the items that I wanted (truly wanted) all the while beating that nag voice with a metal fork and saying, "I CAN afford this. I have the money for what I want AND what I need, I am happy."

I bought all the things I want. I feel great. So what have we learned today? Be careful of what you say! This all corresponds with trusting that you'll get what you've asked for. Don't say you want something and then negate that by saying things like, "Oh I couldn't" or "I don't have enough ___". You're only sending the message that you aren't ready for it. This could be hard, because even I know that sometimes we say things that we don't necessarily mean. Things like "I'm so stupid" or "This is dumb" etc. We don't mean them, but the vibration still isn't in line with what we do want. So watch it!

If you catch yourself saying negative things IMMEDIATELY reinforce positive thoughts. I have this problem a lot. I often will say things like, "What a dork" in reference to myself, or as we've seen already, "I don't have any money". So when I catch myself saying these things I repeat some of my affirmations over and over until I feel good again.

"I'm a dork" changes into "I am attractive, funny, and smart. I attract the right attention to myself."

"I don't have any money" changes into "I can afford everything that I want and also everything that I need."

On a final note, just be more aware. Many people live their lives on autopilot and that's where the unhappiness settles in. In order for this all to work, you have to be more aware. Be more aware of the things you say, be more aware of the way that you feel, be more aware of what you think. You need to know exactly what it is that you're sending into the universe because that's the difference between I feel great, I feel happy, and I feel awful, I feel like something in my life is missing.

Wake up. I find that the coffee smells quite good on this side of line. I hope that you will too.

I will be reading the new books that I got today, so there will soon be more info to pass around. Hope you stick with me!
