How to invoke money

3 daily rituals that will make you rich

This post was originally published in January 2017 and was updated March 2019.

I’m nervous posting this.

This message is so important, I worry my fumbling writing efforts won’t do it justice.

You see, I want you to be rich.

Ouch!….sounds like get-rich-quick hyperbole, right?

….let me explain.

I want you to feel wealthy – free to make decisions you need and want to make. And I want you to be free of the dark blanket of worry that I see burdens so many and drags them into playing it small.

Just to be clear: this isn’t about possessions or cash in your wallet—it’s about the experience of abundance.

For most of us (myself included) we grew up with a poverty mindset – there’s only so much to go around, so be careful not to lose. Oh, we might talk a big talk about income, wealth, savings and growth.

That’s all great.

But a poverty mindset isn’t obvious—like software. It’s there, running your programming, twisting each decision, clouding your thinking and you assume it’s the way it is – as if it’s permanent.

When I was a kid, clothes were handed down, we bought old cars (“You know you lose a quarter of a new car’s value as soon as you drive it off the lot!”) and a restaurant dinner was what we saw other people do.

We weren’t poor, but we certainly weren’t learning about abundance, or what it feels like to be rich.

In a binary sort of way, I used to think being rich was only about bank accounts and how many days you can call “vacation. ”

It’s not that simple.

“A person’s relationship with money,” says behavioural economist Sarah Newcomb, “is almost never about the numbers. It is about the stories we tell ourselves because of those numbers.” To tackle those stories we need to understand there is enough to go around.

Enough to go around

It’s easy to compare ourselves to people who are more successful: taller, richer or have better abs. Get into almost any group and somebody has something or is doing something better than you.

The real harm is when we somehow believe we don’t deserve better, as if what we want is in limited supply. This scarcity thinking can even lead to being “…resistant to taking care of ourselves as fully as we can.” says clinical psychologist Suzanne Lachmann.

So we don’t attempt to save, get in shape, eat better, or invest in education. After all, if you don’t deserve it, what’s the point?

The truth is you do deserve it and there is enough to go around.

There’s enough money, opportunities, business, deals, triple Venti half-sweet non-fat caramel Macchiato’s and clients. And there’s certainly enough for you.

If I was to make of list of lessons that changed to course of my life, this would be first on the list: you can your programming. A bit a time, you can trim away the edges of years of programming to install the version you want for the next 5, 10 or 50 years.

I started with 3 rituals.

Call them habits, mantras, observations, or – Oh, I know – upgrades. Practicing these rituals won’t miraculously pay off your credit card debt, give you six-pack or get you a raise. You won’t be taller, smarter, or more attractive either (sorry.) But, you will be doing something 90% of people never think of doing: choosing how to live.

Here they are – 3 deceptively simple rituals that could quite simply change your life and make you rich.

RITUAL #1: Notice abundance. Walk in nature, appreciate people who have something you want (don’t dismiss or envy them) and reward yourself (like with a special cup of coffee, a book you’ve been wanting to read, or an overdue yoga class). Your goal is to become comfortable with having wealth in your life.

You may be living with a debilitating disorder – it’s call the “psychology of scarcity” (Daniel Kahneman)—the belief that there isn’t enough to go around. This can have short-term impacts, like relying on usury lending rates at payday lender outlets (there are now more of these outlets in the United States than McDonald’s and Starbucks outlets, combined). It can also impact your decisions, by playing it safe or not asking for what you want.

Again, I’m not fixating on money – this is about abundance in nature, having enough to eat and being able to walk without fear in your neighbourhood. This is the growth mindset coined by Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck that can lead to better decisions and even a longer life.

The only difference between people who have more of what you want and you comes down to what you focus on. Abundance is all around you.

RITUAL #2: Take 2 minutes at the end of every day for gratitude. As simple, hackneyed, and cliché as it might seem, there is science to back-up the practice of gratitude. In one experiment, writing letters (even if you don’t send them) or phoning to express gratitude to someone influential in your life resulted in a measured happiness increasing by as much as 400%.

And when you express gratitude (even just thinking how grateful you are) has lasting effects on your brain and well being that can be measured days and weeks later.

In one series of studies, using fMRI scans, researchers found that expressing gratitude (thinking, writing, or calling the person) showed greater neural sensitivity in the medial prefrontal cortex, a brain area associated with learning and decision making. “Simply expressing gratitude may have lasting effects on the brain.” reported researchers Joel Wong and Joshua Brown, “While not conclusive, this finding suggests that practicing gratitude may help train the brain to be more sensitive to the experience of gratitude down the line, and this could contribute to improved mental health over time. ”

RITUAL #3: Ask for what you want. The more you ask, the easier it becomes. Go for simple asks, like to go ahead in a line because you’re in a hurry, or have interest fees charges waived from a missed a credit card payment (which I just did this week!)

I’m writing this from Wailea, Maui listening to the calls of the Mynas, sipping Ceylon tea as the morning warms up. In a few minutes we’ll be paddling out into ‘Alalaleili Channel to spend the morning watching Humpbacks breach.

Crazy right? How did this happen?

Simple, I asked for what I wanted (in this case to borrow a friend’s condo).

When you ask for what you want, resistance lets go of the steering wheel and opportunity can move into the driver’s seat of life.

My experience has been that when I speak up and ask for what I want more often than not I get what I need. As Mick and the boys put it, “You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you might find, you’ll get what you need.”

On more than one occasion, my client hasn’t had the budget to hire me at my fee. I could thank them and walk away. But, if I want the opportunity I need to ask for want I want. When asked if instead of paying my speaking feee they would buy a copy of my book for all 400 delegates (close to the equivalent of paying my fee) they wrote a cheque.

If we are going to do good on this planet we need to know we can make a difference. Call it power, abundance, karma or confidence…I want you to be rich.

“If you really believe that abundance is available to all,” says Michelle Rose Gilman, founder of Fusion Academy middle schools, “you’ll end up attracting your own abundance.”

More about wealth creation

For more reading on abundance and creating wealth:

In this post “Want to make more money? Solve a bigger problem” I argued for raising your value in the market by solving bigger problems. A great starting point is to run a quick survey of your audience and ask them what they need.

In the post, “Want to make more money? Look in the mirror” I wrote about “turning up” your money margin so you are ready to receive more money. Sounds weird, but once you admit you’re wired to a money-set-point (money margin) it only makes sense you can change it. Here’s the 5-step formula I use:

1. Learn to be uncomfortable
2. Study success.
3. Ask for what you’re worth.
4. Accept money as good.
5. Give money away.

If you want some incentive to turn your back on that chocolate chip carrot muffin, read “How to get rich by spending less money (it’s easier than you think)” – if nothing else, you’ll save $1,000 this year.

And, finally, in one of my most popular posts “How to make money now as an expert” I go deep into how to make money as a speaker by, well, not speaking!

How to attract good luck and money. Ritual to attract wealth

Happiness, as well as luck in money, is primarily a special way of thinking, a kind of state of mind. It’s not enough just to furnish the house with cute little things that will “attract finance”, it’s not enough to repeat positive statements and draw wish cards. To begin with, it is worth reviewing your environment and analyzing your own settings.

So, the first secret. Most situations where we can make good money start with good contacts. It is important to learn how to communicate with successful people and try to adopt their habits and manner of communication. Then you should improve your vocabulary: exclude complaints about life from your speech and strictly follow this.

Limit contact with irresponsible people who communicate in an accusatory manner. Do not communicate with toxic people who have anyone but themselves to blame. Remove such "poor fellows" from life and never let them into the house. It is better to invite successful smart people who are always polite and correct.

The second secret: arrange the right space for life and work. Make it a rule not to buy cheap pieces of furniture for your house. Let them be few, but high-quality. Try to create such an environment at home as if you already have a good income.

Also create a private corner at home, a work space where you can work alone. Organize a place for reading, where you can calmly sit alone with your thoughts, think over projects, find an opportunity to earn extra money, somewhere to apply your talents. Think about it every day and take steps to find additional sources of income until it becomes a habit.

Secret three: create a kind of "altar of personal power." You can combine it with the workplace. What it will be, you decide. You can put any items that you believe in, such as stones, herbs, jewelry. In a word, everything that gives you a feeling of an increase in resources. Accumulate such things, instead of stupid souvenirs, buy them on trips. In addition to work and reflection, you can meditate at this place, ask for help.

Fourth secret: when conducting any rituals, practices and ceremonial actions to improve financial well-being, take into account the lunar cycle and use its energy to implement your plans. All desires for income growth are made only on the growing moon and on an empty stomach. Even if you choose a ritual that takes place at night, you cannot eat before it.

Secret #5: Always keep your house clean and tidy. Clean up broken things, throw away without regret everything that gives rise to a feeling of devastation and chaos. The less clutter in the house, the easier it is to concentrate energy around you and tune in to growth.

Ritual to attract money

To practice, you will need a green wax candle and the right time (new moon or any day of the growing moon phase)

So, light a candle, look at the flame, stop internal dialogues and calm down. Then we present our personal material well-being in detail. Here it is important to present exactly your desires regarding real life, and not the generally accepted expensive things from the section “house, car, yacht”. To make it easier, you can say out loud all your desires and paint them colorfully.

When you're done, you can leave the candle to burn out if it's small. Large candles can be safely extinguished and used several times. After fulfillment, we mentally thank the higher powers as if they had already fulfilled the desire. And during the day you need to feed any birds on the street, you can feed them with cereals or bread crumbs.

How to attract money into your life - advice from psychologists | | Infopro54

Many people are wondering how to raise money? – often this is prevented by incorrect settings. Proper setting of financial goals will accelerate their achievement. It is important to understand the laws of money movement.

How to attract money into your life?

To understand how to attract money into your life , you should listen to the advice of psychologists.

Finance is not only cash, but also assets in bank accounts, credit cards. It is more than realistic to increase capital, the main thing is to approach the matter correctly. The process should be accompanied by positive emotions, because money is a symbol of well-being, stability and freedom. Thoughts about them should be exclusively positive. If you think all the time that there is not enough money, it will be so. Such thoughts form negative attitudes.

Fear of losing money most often leads to just such situations. To understand how to attract money , you need to understand the habits of rich people.

Rules and habits of rich people

Some people are simply not ready to get rich. It is not enough just to dream of a large amount, you need to understand how to dispose of it. Be clear about what the money will be spent on. The basic rules of rich people are:

• don't be afraid of big money;
• properly manage capital;
• be ready to innovate.

The psychology of money is such that it should not just lie under the pillow. Capital must work and multiply. If the money is at home, it will simply depreciate, and very quickly.

Most people's attitude to wealth is based on habits, the influence of society. To get rich, you need to have professional skills, be confident in yourself, invest in your own education and development.

Attitude towards finances is formed in childhood, parents serve as an example. If the mother and father did not have a penny in their souls, it is likely that their children will inherit this behavior pattern. Some people do not know how to save, others, on the contrary, limit themselves in everything, trying not to spend too much.

What should be the money thinking to attract money

Correct money thinking is the right way to wealth. This does not mean that you need to work two jobs, forget about weekends and vacations. You need to learn how to invest properly. You should start by opening a deposit in a bank. Compare offers from several financial institutions to find the best deal.

This option is ideal for people who have a subconscious desire to constantly spend. Those whose parents were spenders did not know how to save. Even with a large salary, such a person will have a subconscious goal of getting rid of banknotes, making spontaneous and unnecessary acquisitions. A bank deposit that does not provide for debit transactions within a certain period will help to avoid this.

Owners of large sums of money may have different financial behavior. It is important to avoid extremes. It is necessary to think rationally about how to increase capital or dispose of it with maximum benefit. You have to learn how to properly prioritize life.

If a person puts family first, it is unlikely that he will spend large sums on entertainment.

One of the factors hindering financial well-being is the fear of leaving the comfort zone. Do not be afraid of changes, because in many cases they represent chances for improving your financial situation, they answer the question, how to get rid of debts .

If there are any debts, it is necessary to direct all efforts to pay them off. In such cases, you can not take new loans - this is a road to nowhere. Money in banks at interest can be obtained only if it is a business development, with a clear financial plan. It is necessary to carefully consider everything, take into account all possible risks.

Properly dispose of suddenly received finances, whether it be a lottery win or profit from a deal. Each banknote is the result of a certain activity. For good earnings, you will have to understand the laws of money.

Fundamental laws of money

How to attract money into your life

The main one is the law of rich thinking. Never complain about the lack of money, talk about your financial situation only in a positive way.

Love for wealth in many cases guarantees its appearance, because thoughts are material. The main thing is not to succumb to fears and confidently move towards your goal.

Finances must work all the time, greed has a destructive effect on capital. Well-thought-out investments contribute to obtaining additional profits.

One should always remember the law of lightness and spare no expense for entertainment. Finances should bring joy - this contributes to their return.

Most wealthy people are businessmen. To succeed in business, you need to constantly strive for development, launching new projects, and closing deals. Look for reliable partners, select responsible employees. It is also very important to love what you do. Far from all businessmen, the issue of profit is in the first place, and this, oddly enough, helps them to increase their capital.

Another important law is related to distribution. In order not to get bogged down in debt, part of the finances must always be directed to increasing capital. This may be the purchase of shares in promising companies or precious metals.
