Issues with money show up in every area of our lives. What is so interesting is that while we think it’s about the “money”, usually it’s not. So much of the time, it’s our inner beliefs that are really running the show and money is just the focal point.
I’ll give you an example from my own life. When I decided to become a coach, I had a really hard time getting my business off the ground. I struggled every day with focusing on how I was going to “make money”. The energy felt so draining and stressful.
But at the core, what I was really struggling with was that Monster in the Head voice telling me “Who do you think you are? What makes you think you know anything anyone else is interested in, blah, blah, blah…”
That critical voice stymied any new venture I tried to create because that voice had already convinced me that any idea I had wasn’t any good. Is it any WONDER I was having such a hard time attracting abundance?
On morning, after a very long and restless night, I decided that instead of spending the day worrying about how I was going to “make some money”, I would simply focus instead on how I could take my gifts and talents out into the world. In addition, I played some REALLY loud music on my IPod so I wouldn’t be able to hear the “Monster” nagging and whining in the background! (it’s always good to have a strategy…;-)
Suddenly, I went from feeling constricted (how will I “make” money) to feeling inspired and expansive. The shift in my mindset (aided by happy music!) put me in a creative, energized state of mind. From THAT place, I began to craft programs and offers that would benefit my clients so they could create results they needed and wanted in their own lives. My business took off.
We know that money is currency, but currency is also defined as a “quality or state of being”. When we step into a state of being that honors our unique gifts and talents and we hold the belief that who we are is of the highest quality, money becomes attracted to us. We no longer stress about how to “make it”, but draw it to us in exchange for the value we bring to the world.
