"I Can Set My Own Standards for Financial Well-Being. . .Once you are able to achieve and consistently maintain your personal alignment, a great deal of money will flow into your experience (if that is your desire).Do not let others set the standards about how much money you should have—or about what you should do with it—for you are the only one who could ever accurately define that. Come into alignment with who-you-really-are, and allow the things that life has helped you to know that you want to flow into your experience."From: Money and the Law of Attraction - Learning to Attract Wealth, Health and Happiness by Esther and Jerry Hicks.I'm looking forward to this new book by Esther and Jerry Hicks. "Abraham" has graced us with much of his profound wisdom on the law of attraction, the law of allowing and the power of deliberate intent. I can't wait to hear what new insights will be shared.I've been listening to The Secret in thecar regularly for about the past month now. One of the phrases that really stands out is that it's just as easy to manifest a million dollars asit is to manifest just one dollar. It is the concept of our minds seeing one as so much larger than the other that trips us up. Our belief system is locked into seeing a million dollars as a huge amount and a dollar as nothing, especially these days.Another area that this gets into is our perception of how much we really want or need to have in order to live comfortably. Some want millions to spend on toys and cruises and homes and cars. Others, like myself, just want more than enough to pay the bills, keep things in good repair and most of all, to be free of worry about money.Yet, we don't have to have money to be free of worry about it. I've been investing my energy into working with this lately. My mind knows that there is a constant flow of money and that I've always been provided for - but it insists on trying to dwell upon difficult financial times. The economy is its partner in crime altho...

Lately I've been giving a lot of thought to how what society believes creates societal structure and the economy. The media reports that gas will reach $6.00 per gallon by the end of the year. People accept this as fact and talk about it all the time. It's likely that the majority of the country is saying, every single day, "Gas is going to be $6.00 per gallon by the end of the summer." There isn't a clearer example of the law of attraction in action, especially when gas prices continue to climb and will likely reach $6.00 per gallon - for no other reason than the Universe being directed to create it because that's exactly what it's being told.The facts in the following blog, written in May, will probably shock you:SO, although I do not profess to be any sort of economist … I did a bit of research and will report to you just the cold, hard facts!! (Information taken directly from the following sources : ‘A Marketers Guide to Discretionary Income’, Consumer Research Center and Dan Kennedy’s No BS newsletter)** In November 2007, retailers posted their greatest gains in 6 months.** For the entire year of 2007, both retail and wholesale revenues of US Businesses were up vs. 2006.** Black Friday shoppers in 2007 turned out in bigger numbers and spent MORE than in previous year.** the number of households with discretionary income (not required for essentials) increased from 57 - million in 2002 to 73-million in 2007.Continue reading Economy Is A State Of MindSensationalism sells newspapers. Can you imagine what our world would be like if the media only reported positive, inspiring and loving stories? It seems to be human nature to want to stir things up, to want to read horror stories and watch horror movies thought up by mind that enjoy entertaining twisted thoughts. Most child welfare workers will confirm that the media rarely reports the good work that is done. The public only hears about the worst cases, which in my area usually number less than a dozen per year....
