What do you do when you really do not have enough?

I know how you feel.

It is hard when you first start out. I just had a negative checking account of -$220. A gross misunderstanding between what was being transferred to another account and having bad math for being off a few cents. Those overdraft fees were killing me!

However, even before I discovered the secret and laws of attraction, despite how miserable my money situation was, I ALWAYS told myself (even after stressing out) that I will somehow come through this situation. I believe that there is someone out there looking for me and it has yet to fail. Even with this recent bind I received money!

This makes me further believe that if I can always manage to get out of a bind, the fact that I have not allowed myself in the past to be rich with money, had to do with my beliefs about money and feeling as if though I were not worthy to have such wealth.

I'm at the beginning stages, but I feel a change. I think it's worth taking my time and looking back to see that i have done things to myself that said, "I don't deserve money." I know now I do, it's just I need to keep affirming myself and keep at it.

Just hang in there. You are not alone, I promise!

Hi, it's always helps me to feel better to realise that I am not alone, other have it a great deal worse! So I want you to know you're not alone. Maybe it will help you to know that I've been caught right slap bang in the middle of a major crash with a property development and risk losing more than $3m, what with all the stuff going on with the sub-prime crisis and our own national (South Africa) and neighbouring (Zimbabwe) issues. But I know that I have the wit and will to not only survive the present crunch but to get back up. Heck my nose hasn't even hit the dust yet and I am already back on my feet and running with plans and ideas to get back on top of my game. In fact, if it wasn't for this crisis I may never have had the impetus to really get going at my dream which is to teach, inspire and empower others on a fulltime basis - always too busy with business. I've practiced what I preach in my businesses but never had the guts to make it a fulltime comittment. BUt now I have And then I remind myself that Donal Trump was down about $4bn at one time and he dug himself out of the hole!

One thing I did that helped a whole lot; I made a promise to my kids that I would not watch TV until I achieved a certain personal income stream again - amazing how many extra hours you get to think and plan!

I attract what I am;
Optimistic

I understand where you are at because I am there as well. My husband and I are working hard on a venture that when it does happen, financially things will change for us. The problem is, what do I do in the meantime? I'm not sure how we will survive until then...so that's when the negative thought come back into my mind and it affects everything. I was away from this site for over three weeks now and slowly I noticed how I was not focused and the negative thoughts took over again. Something drew me back here and I am so glad. I don't have the answers, I'm just taking one day at a time right now.

Good luck.

My feeling is...

Embrace Possibility!!!

Through your experience with The Secret...You have awakened and are now aware of the state of BEing...

In this physical realm we also have the gift of DOing...taking Action!...and experiencing the fruits of your efforts!

So BE in a state of Allowing...which for me is having FUN and Appreciating All that I can in each and every moment!...

And the DOing part flows from that BEing in the form of Inspired Action!!!...

You see....money is just simply a form of Energy...

When you put Energy out there...it comes back to you many times over! (and it may come back to you in a form other than what you expected!...Exciting!...Huh?!?)

So...from a place of feeling good...what Inspired Action could you take that would help to serve others?...your self?...and open you up to the ever flowing stream of Universal Abundance???

Have FUN with it!...and you will know it when it resonates with your soul!!!

Prepare to BE Amazed!!!

You have to be patient the money is there for you but you lack patience. Write a check to your self and put on the check the exact amount of money you like to have, place it in a area where you can see it every day and say to your self that you have this amount of money and the date. Even if you do not see it when you expect it keep reminding your self your soon going to have it in your hand with undieing faith. You can not force the universe to give you it you have to be patient and the universe will manifest it for you. Be grateful for what you have now and the universe will flow in your happiness, your patience and gratefulness.

i am not the most patient person by nature, so i guess i'll have to manifest that quality in myself as well: ) i did make a check, and a vision board and a list of what i'll buy when my money comes, so now i'm waiting and i'm working on being better at that. thanks for the encouragement

I started where you started last July. Here's what I did and it works fabulously. I watched The Secret all the time until I knew it by heart. I started to meditate and I mediated often on checks I would be receiving. Strangely, enough - not only did the checks come - they came exactly as I visualized them for meditation.
I used Jack Canfield's approach and put a check to myself on the ceiling. I attracted the exact amount.

2 of the most important things I did - Meditation (affirmations) and I made gratitude lists every day. In order to manifest money you must believe it will come to you. Do not dwell on what is not in the bank account- Add zero's to your balance and for the amount of money you want to have. Ask SPECIFICALLY. Be specific about how much and when. Right now - you have everything you need. You must get into vibrational alignment with abundance and it will come, I promise.

Also check out Abraham-Hicks material on manifestation. In the beginning, this took me a little while so don't be hard on yourself. It's supposed to be FUN now!!!! Now i manifest money all the time - when it starts coming in - it really comes in. You will be amazed!!
