Most if not all of us want and crave for something better.We want a bigger car, a better house, buying good things for the family.We keep hoping for more, but in order to fulfill those needs we definitely need money.

Now,what is money?I think I need not tell you that. Money in fact is an idea backed by confidence.Ultimately money can give you power, but if you somehow stuck on a desert island forever with a billion dollars,will that money be able to provide you with the much needed shelter to you?

What were taught about money in your formative years of childhood? Something like “money is the root of all evil“, or maybe “all rich are greedy” or “money doesn’t grow on trees“.Right?

Well, if you believe these things, how far will you get success financially? Believing those negative notions of money actually bring lack or scarcity programming back in you. And going with popular belief or as our parents taught us that there is always scarcity of money , and that it is not readily available or abundant. But this is not truth, there is abundance of everything for everybody and you’ll only get what you expect if you have that positive frame of mind.

Here the key is to think that you deserve the money and there is abundance of it for you now, and thus you can start attracting money into your life. This is the power of abundance thinking, which is the opposite of lack or scarcity thinking.

Now,what about thinking that “money is the root of all evil”? Isn’t it a hindrance to becoming a financially successful person? If it is true, why then churches and other religious organizations are still accepting monetary donations and charity? Actually aggressive love and passion for money is the root of all evils. Unless you desire to be an evil person, your subconscious will not let you grab money if you have a believe system deep in your subconscious mind that money is the root of all evil.

Now that you understand the inner meaning of thinking about and attracting money for the good purposes, like with money you can help people, stimulate the economy, can do more to make the world a better place and many good things.

“All rich people are greedy” Is this true? Well, that creates a kind of negative feelings in you whereby you have labeled all of “them” greedy in your mind. You’ve to be a little bit of greedy in order to succeed in life. If you don’t have greed for your favorite car, dream home, food; how would you be going to get it? In other words that’s why you don’t have money, because you’re not greedy.

When you criticize that ”all riches are greedy” there must be some substance in it. Its indeed true there must be some rich people in the world who are miserably greedy. In fact there are lots of poor people who are unfortunately greedy. There are both rich and poor people who are very giving as well. The amount of money you have has nothing to do with these character traits.

In fact, a lot of rich people got there by not being greedy. Having a giving attitude opens up a flow of money that often brings them more. You may experience that giving away money voluntarily to a charity, brings multiple flow of money back to you. The world needs to be a balance of give and take.

And changing your mindset from what you were taught as a child to a healthier view of money will allow you to become the financial success you deserve to be.
