What if you could completely shift your money mindset and start to naturally become magnetic to more financial abundance – simply by starting to take better care of your money?

Because when you create a holistic relationship with money, when you start taking loving care of your money, your money can actually start taking care of you.

What happens is that as you start to demystify money and create a simple money system for yourself, you shift old stories.

Stories that say I’m not good with money”

And that changes your energy around money, which helps make you magnetic to more.

Because when you start to feel positive, empowered, and good about your finances, you start to feel SAFE.

And at the end of the day, that’s what we link money to – a feeling of SAFETY.

Most of us were never taught how to manage our finances.

We weren’t shown how to make sure the bills get paid – and still have fun money to play with. How to enjoy our money – and put it to work for us.

We’re given a job, a pay slip, a credit card, a car loan, rent to pay, a mortgage and a bunch of bills. And then we’re just expected to figure it out!

Meanwhile, money is kind of a big deal in our lives!

And when everyone around you just expects you to know what to do, it’s easy to fall into a pattern of silent money shame.

Before you know it, we’re all doing it! We’re just winging it & hoping for the best. But we don’t really know what we’re doing, or if it’s the smartest or best thing to be doing.

This creates all this stress and tension that feeds into those old stories of “I’m not good with money.”

But it’s not that you’re not good with money!
It’s just that nobody’s ever shown you what to do!

So when you can finally sit down and put together a simple money management system to help you organize your finances, it changes everything!

You can let go of those old stories, your energy around money shifts, and that naturally makes you magnetic to more.


Most people who take a mindset or an energetic approach to money think they just need to manifest more. They tend to ignore the whole ‘taking care of your money’, part of the puzzle.

But as an ex-finance professional, as a hypnotherapist and as a manifesting mentor, I know THAT is actually the most critical piece of the puzzle!

Because when you make peace with your money, everything changes!

That’s when money can start to flow to you more freely. That’s when it can stay around to grow and multiply.

So I hope this encourages you to look at some of your old belief systems around money and maybe start to become more open to learning how to take better care of your money.

Let me know in the comments below how you feel about it. Is this giving you some aha moments and challenging you to start looking at money in a whole different way?

This is not about budgeting and doing the boring stuff.

This is about taking loving care of your money – so your money can start to take loving care of you ❤️

Why you keep running out of money (there are only 3 reasons!)

Why you keep running out of money (there are only 3 reasons!)

Do you keep running out of money?

There’s only three reasons that cause this.

So let’s cover them and talk about WHY it’s so important to have a simple money system that’s easy to use and you feel confident about.

Because when you take loving care of your money, your money will take great care of you.

If you keep running out of money, it’s for one of these 3 reasons.

NUMBER 1:
You’re simply not allocating enough money.

I work with a lot of people who make plenty of money and they find that month after month, they run out of spending money, or grocery money – or their bills account gets overdrawn.

And that’s simply because they’re being stingy with themselves. They’re not allocating enough.

So ask yourself – are you being realistic?

You need a money system that starts with an audit of what your expenses truly are. You need to know how much you need for fun money – how much you need to cover the bills – how much you want to save – pay towards debts – invest etc.

Most people are shocked at how much money they spend, when they do a proper audit.

We all tend to think we need less than we do.

When you’re more realistic about what your expenses are and how much money you do spend, you’ll stop short-changing yourself and feeling like ‘there’s not enough money’ – which makes you feel poor (even when you’re not!)


NUMBER 2:
You’re spending too much without even realizing!


The second reason why people keep finding there’s not enough money is that they are simply spending too much money.

Not only do they spend more than they realize on the things they know about – they’re also spending money on things they’ve forgotten about! (s.a. subscriptions & plans)
 
This happened to me recently where I realized I’ve been on the highest-level plan for my membership platform and was paying for a bunch of features I’ve never used.

It happened because somebody else set it up for me and I wasn’t paying attention. For the past 5 years I’ve been paying more than I needed to for features I’ve never used. I could have saved sooooo much money!

It happens to all of us. That’s why we need to have a money system that helps us stay on top of things.

We need to be connected with our money. We need to be able to see where our money is going and assess where we’re spending more than we need to.

Most people spend money on things they don’t even need and rarely use – then wonder why they run out!


NUMBER 3:
The third reason people feel like they keep running out of money is that they simply don’t have enough income.

This is the first conclusion most people jump to, but it’s really not the case! Because we just covered 2 other – much more common – reasons people run out of money.

But say you’ve looked at both of those & that’s not it. You’ve eliminated unnecessary expenses, money that was being wasted. You’ve reduced your expenses, especially your unnecessary expenses – the things that were giving you no joy and little benefit (like me with my membership)

And say you’ve done all that & decided that even if you live on the bones of your butt and just eat baked beans, you are simply not making enough money.

Well, that’s even MORE reason to sit down & put together a money system!

Because by documenting it all, getting familiar and intimate with it, you will know what your minimum expenses are and you will be able to determine how much income you need.

And then you can make a plan!

If you’re in a job, you might need to change jobs, get a second job, or negotiate a promotion or pay rise.

And if you’re in a business, fantastic! Because you can make changes in your business to start generating more income. You can start setting business targets and developing a business strategy that helps you achieve the level of income you need.

The above are the ONLY reasons people keep running out of money.

And most people who keep running out of money think they just need to bring in more. They think they just need to manifest, attract, or earn more money. But that won’t fix things! 

Because if you are only focusing on that, you’re not getting intimately familiar with what’s really going on with your money. You’re ignoring your money, you’re not taking great care of it. And your pattern –  whatever it is – will simply continue. Because you’re flying blind, hoping for the best.

When it comes to your finances, flying blind and hoping for the best is really not a smart strategy.

So have a look at which of those three things might apply to you – then start getting familiar and intimate with your money.

And if you’d like some help with that, I’ll pop the link for the Magnetic Money ®️ System Bootcamp below. It will help you set up a money system that’s tailored for you and is simple to manage so you can have money confidence that shifts your mindset and the way you feel about money.

Remember: Start taking loving care of your money and your money will start taking care of you.

Have a fabulous day!

Beware These 5 ‘Good’ Money Habits That Will Keep You POOR!!!

Beware These 5 ‘Good’ Money Habits That Will Keep You POOR!!!

What if everything you were told to do with money – is actually wrong?

We’re told to save, budget and tighten our belts…

But today I’m going to tell you why these things may actually be keeping you poor!

 

Scroll down to keep reading…

 

WATCH THE VIDEO:

LISTEN TO THE AUDIO VERSION:

 

CONTINUE READING….

See, you already know what your bad money habits are – overspending, using credit, and whatever your personal vices might be.

So we’re not going to talk about that obvious stuff. We’re going to go a level deeper and talk about the attitudinal habits that make it so difficult to change those surface level ‘bad habits’

Here we go:


5 (unexpected) money habits that will keep you poor:


And the underlying factor that permeates & drives ALL of them…

If you’ve been trying to change your bad money habits, you’ve probably been doing it backwards.

Most people try to use their willpower – but that doesn’t work!

(Anyone who’s ever tried to give up smoking will tell you that)

See, with willpower, you’re trying to use your conscious mind to override an unconscious program. And since up to 98% of everything you do think, say & feel is unconscious, that’s REALLY hard work!

It means you need to stay constantly vigilant – which gets tiring. And the moment you turn your back, those old unconscious patterns kick in again and you’re back to where you started.

That’s why using willpower is a losing battle.

Unconscious patterns are great because they make our life so much easier. They allow us to do things without having to think about them too much.

But when habits that aren’t serving us become unconscious, things can get difficult.

And so we really need to go deeper and override the program that’s driving those habits.

And the beautiful thing is that as you change the program, the habits miraculously change themselves!

Because your habits need to match your underlying, unconscious program – ALWAYS.

So let’s talk about these 5 habits that are reinforcing a program that’s not serving you – and how to shift them:

NUMBER 1: SAVING

Surprised? I did say ‘unexpected’, right? 🙂

Thinking of yourself as a SAVER – rather than an INVESTOR – will keep you poor.

Saving is about being safe by squirreling your nuts away for winter.
Whole INVESTING is about achieving financial independence and growth.

When you save your money and put it in the bank, it’s actually shrinking, because standard interest rates won’t even keep up with inflation.

When you’re trying to save, coming from a mindset of ‘I have to hold onto this because I don’t want to end up poor’, it can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Whereas with the mindset of an INVESTOR, you’re always looking to make your money grow and multiply.

You’re sending your money off to make MONEY BABIES.

Which is how you create financial independence and freedom.


NUMBER 2: BUDGETING

Budgeting reinforces the message that ‘there’s not enough so I need to make every dollar count’.

When you’re budgeting, you’re looking to account for and stretch every dollar. It’s about ‘tighten your belt to save money’.

You’re trying to squirrel away the nuts for the winter.

But that mindset is based on lack and limitation. 

It comes from a place of restriction and constriction.

So we want to switch that up. We want to go from a mindset of budgeting to a mindset of having your money go to work for you by implementing a MONEY SYSTEM.

You want to give every dollar a job to do.

It’s the difference between safely tucking your money away in a drawer in case you need it one day, versus sending your money to work in a factory.

You want your money to be productive and make money babies – growing, multiplying and helping you reach all your financial goals. No idly sitting around doing nothing.


NUMBER 3: LACK OF FOCUS

Most people don’t have a clear financial focus.

So when a sum of money comes in – especially a large or unexpected sum – they tend to put a little bit towards savings, a little bit towards debt and maybe some towards a holiday or something like that.

It comes from the belief that there may not be more coming in consistently so you can’t afford to just focus on 1 thing.

The problem is that a little further down the track, it feels like that money never even came. The money didn’t really make an impact, because it was spread out way too thin, trying to do everything at once – but achieving pretty much nothing.

A lack of focus leaves you going nowhere fast.

Let me know in the comments if that’s ever happened to you!?



NUMBER 4: BEING STINGY WITH YOURSELF

When you don’t allow yourself enough spending money for fun stuff, it reinforces a lack mentality.

You feel like ‘there’s not enough, so I can’t afford to splurge on me.’  And in that process, you’re creating a deep sense of deprivation.

You’re reinforcing the belief that ‘there’s not enough’, and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

It causes you to resonate with an energy of lack – which will repel rather than attract money and abundance. That energy can translate into a ‘smell of desperation’ driving clients away, rather than attracting them.

By being too stingy with yourself, you’re creating a state that CONFIRMS you don’t have enough, which attracts more of ‘not enough’.

This creates situations like unexpected bills showing up and income that just doesn’t seem to want to land.

Being too stingy with yourself will also cause you to blow the budget, making you feel like you’re failing with money. And that will perpetuate the whole negative cycle even further.


NUMBER 5: INSTANT GRATIFICATION

Instant gratification usually hand in hand with using spending to mask deeper needs.

I ask Magnetic Money®️ members to check in whether a purchase is a NEED or a WANT.

Ask yourself, “Do I really need this? Or do I just want this and I’ve convinced myself that I need it?”

And if you do just want it, ask yourself, “WHY do I want it?”

Will it fulfill you, add joy to your life and help you feel consistently more abundant?

Or are you trying to mask something else?  Are you trying to mask a deeper pain – to fit in – feel loved – achieve some sort of status or acknowledgement?

What are you REALLY trying to buy?

A great indicator that a purchase was about something else entirely is when you experience buyer’s remorse.

That’s when you need to figure out what was going on at the deeper level.


THE ONE UNDERLYING FACTOR

We’ve covered 5 money habits that are keeping money at bay because they’re literally convincing you that there’s not enough, making you feel poor and creating more lack.

But there is an underlying factor that permeates all of them which needs to shift before these habits and attitudes can shift.

And this underlying factor is a very powerful limiting belief that there’s not enough money.

Wanting to save –  rather than thinking of yourself as an investor comes from a belief that ‘there’s not enough’.

“We have squirrel our nuts away for the winter”

The tendency to budget & carefully dividing up your money – rather than creating a SYSTEM that helps you grow your wealth – is based on a belief that ‘there’s not enough’.

“We have to budget and make it last”

A lack of focus comes from a belief that you cannot move forward financially by focusing on 1 thing at a time because ‘there’s not enough’. You don’t trust that more is coming, so:

“I have to make this stretch as far as possible.”

Seeking instant gratification and trying to fill deeper needs through spending comes from a belief that ‘there’s not enough’.

“I better grab it while I can!” 

Being stingy with yourself comes from a belief of ‘there’s not enough’

“It’s not okay to splurge on myself because there won’t be enough for more important things”

This underlying limiting belief acts like a systemic autopilot that reinforces these habits, keeping you poor and stuck in this mindset and belief that ‘there’s not enough’

The way to override an autopilot is to reprogram it, not fight it!

You want to be taken to a whole new destination where ‘there’s MORE than enough.’

The best way to program that new destination called ‘ABUNDANCE” is by focusing on and reinforcing the abundance that’s all around you.

You need to reprogram yourself with the belief that there’s plenty, by constantly proving it to yourself.

You don’t want to just stop being poor. You want to actually FEEL and BE rich.
You want to start developing & reinforcing habits that will make you richer.

That’s what the episode linked below is all about. So jump on that next.

Here is a list of 32 things I don’t buy anymore that most people think are necessary.

But I never miss any of them – and they basically add up to an entire salary!

 

It’s the things I don’t buy anymore that have allowed us to create financial stability & independence – giving us freedom of choice and even improving our health & wellbeing.

Note these are OUR figures based on what we used to spend – or would spend – versus what we ACTUALLY spend. And these are also our choices based on our values & lifestyle preferences.

Your choices & savings will differ, but I know that within this list you’ll find loads of inspiration to help you make some significant savings in your life.

Because all those small daily choices really add up!


And we’ve been conditioned by society & the media into thinking that MORE stuff will help us feel richer – that we need it to make us happy.

But less is more! More freedom, more choices, less stress & responsibility.

And be sure to use your savings wisely so that money can go to work for you!
If you’re not sure how to do that, join the Magnetic Money®️ Management Bootcamp where we help you do that.

Ok, it’s a big list, so let’s get into it!

In order of money saved:

 

1. Roaming Data

Instead of paying for roaming data while traveling, get a local data only SIM card while overseas and tell family and friends you’ll stay in touch via Viber, Whatsapp or Messenger.

Annual saving: $440

 

2. Household Cleaning Products

 

We run a chemical free home which is not only better for our health and the environment, but also saves us loads of money!

 

Annual saving: $480

 

3. High Heels

They look pretty, so for years I was still buying them, even though I rarely wore them. So I stopped.

 

Annual saving: $600

 

4. Perfume & Cologne

We used to be fairly heavy users, but once I realised how toxic they actually are, we traded our designer smells for simple deodorant & essential oils.

Annual saving: $940

 

5. Private Hospital Cover

In Australia, we are blessed with a fabulous public hospital system (to which my ample tax bill contributes each year).

And since even with private cover, there is usually still a significant gap to pay, we opt to only have private extras cover (for dental, optical, chiropractic, massage etc) and invest in preventative health care instead.

Annual saving: $960 (plus the saved gap payments)

 

6. Orthotic Shoes

Yes, we’re at that stage of life where supportive shoes are important.

But attractive orthotic shoes are incredibly pricey.

So I now choose to continue to buy more affordable shoes as I always have – usually at end of season sales – and simply buy up a size to fit my orthotic inner soles.

Annual saving: $1,000

 

7. Designer Handbags

My handbags are purely utilitarian & very well used, so spending thousands (or even several hundred dollars) on a single bag is just wasteful to me.

Yes, a Chanel bag can be an investment – but not when you trash it!

 

I like to hunt for quality 2nd handbags in Thrift & Second Hand Stores or buy them on sale.

Annual saving: $1,000

 

 

8. Books

I read about 1 book per week (where are my fellow crime fiction addicts?) but I spend ZERO money on them!

Instead, I use those neighbourhood book exchange boxes and help save trees as well.

 

Annual saving: $1,000

 

 

9. Christmas presents for family & friends

We all used to all buy each other Christmas gifts – then have to try and find time to exchange them!

One year, we just stopped – and nobody has ever complained!

Annual saving: $1,000

 

 

10. Smart TVs & electronic gadgets

We only own 1 ‘dumb’ TV and use an inexpensive ChromeCast dongle with it. 

 

Annual saving: $1,000

 

 

11. Weekly Lottery Tickets

Although Martin still likes to buy these, I don’t (although if he does win, he’s still promised to share). I prefer to use the savings to invest in my business, health or well-being & invest in an equities fund to grow my wealth.

 

Annual saving: $1,000

 

 

12. Alcohol

I stopped drinking several years ago after a Shaman in Bali confirmed what I’d suspected (& ignored) for years. Alcohol did not agree with my constitution & dimmed my energy.

I recently started drinking a little again & quickly stopped again when I noticed how tired it makes me.

 

Annual saving: $1,040 


13. Brand New Cars

New cars depreciate by approx 15% the moment you drive them home. So even if you only spend $40,000 on a new car, that’s an instant loss of $6,000! Most people upgrade cars every 5 years, so:

 

Annual saving: $1,200

 

14. Streaming Services

There are so many of these, it’s hard to keep up!

Most people have several of these – but we choose to have only Netflix, which is quite

inexpensive (and we’ll still never get time to watch everything we’d like to!)

 

Annual saving: $1,260

 

15. Mobile Phone Plan

 

By switching to an alternative phone plan provider (Boost mobile rather than Telstra) we still enjoy exactly the same network coverage at a tiny fraction of the cost!

Annual saving: $1,560

 

16. New Mobile Phones

 

There’s always a lot of hype about the latest & greatest mobile phone… and they’re being released faster than the latest Hollywood gossip.

I choose to take great care of my phone & keep it for years. At the moment, I still have my Samsung Galaxy S9, which is now almost 5 years old. And it does everything I need!

And when it’s time to upgrade, I will buy a refurbished phone that comes with a 3 year warranty for a fraction of its original cost.

Annual saving: $1,780

 

17. Hair Salons

 

Leaving behind the trendy inner suburbs & city salons for a local neighbourhood one as well as choosing to go just a little less often has made a massive impact on the cost!

Annual saving: $1,792

 

18. Partner Gifts 

 

Martin & I generally do not give each other gifts for anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, Birthdays & Christmas.

We’ll usually celebrate by going out to dinner (which is part of our usual spending plan anyway) and we buy things as we need and want them, rather than buying an extra gift ‘just because’


Annual saving: $1,800

 

19. Soft Drinks & Beer

 

We do crave those thirst-quenching drinks, but I now substitute with home-made Kombucha, which costs next to nothing and is way better for our health.


Annual saving: $1,896

 

20. Magazines & Subscriptions

 

With everything being available in digital form, it was pretty easy to give up the magazine habit. We also look to limit other subscriptions (Audible etc) to only what we actually use)


Annual saving: $1,920

 

21. Kitchenware

 

Tableware, pots & crockery can be extremely tempting to spend loads of money on. The trick is to avoid all those beautifully styled shops and their temptations & to buy simple white plates and plain glasses from places like K-Mart, Target & Ikead instead.

The bonus is that even if you break a few, the old will still match the new!


Annual saving: $2,000

 

22. High End Skincare & Make-up

Again, my tip to you is to avoid those shops.

I buy all my make-up at the chemist (drugstore) & choose to buy non toxic skincare which is also way more affordable than the glamour brands with all their heavy marketing (which is mostly what you end up paying for)

 

Annual saving: $2,100

 

23. Second Family Car

 

Several years ago we made one of the BEST decisions ever & replaced the second car with a $1,600 Piaggio scooter.

It is so much fun to ride and it only costs $10 to fill the tank!
It’s also much more cost effective on registration and insurance and kinder to the environment.


Annual saving: $2,495

 

24. Sound System

 

Although we talked about it for years, we never found the need to get an expensive sound system for our home. We use portable bluetooth speakers that we can carry with us & take on holiday. Simple, easy & cheap!


Annual saving: $2,500

 

25. Small Kitchen Appliances

Thermomixes. slow cookers, breadmakers, dehydraters, blenders, choppers, beaters, mixers – we have NONE of them. (actually, I do have an old hand mixer, that’s it!)

I prefer to keep things simple, not clutter up my cupboards & be kinder to my bank account.


Annual saving: $2,500

 

26. Coffee Pods

This was actually largely an environmental choice, so I’m quite surprised at the savings!
Rather than buying coffee pods, we buy beans & grind them at home.


Annual saving: $2,860

 

27. Holiday Resorts

I enjoy staying in a resort about as much as I enjoy spending time in a shopping centre. Negative 1,000!

To me it feels like you could be anywhere. So instead, I prefer to rent a BnB from a local & immerse myself in the local culture.


Annual saving: $3,000

 

28. Home Decor

This is another one of those ‘out of sight, out of mind’ things. I used to LOVE browsing through homeware stores, but inadvertently came home with yet another knick knack, decor item, wall hanging or vase.

I include lighting in this category. Rather than going to lighting stores, I now visit Ikea or Freedom Furniture when we need new lights. And the savings are significant!


Annual saving: $3,000

 

29. Furniture

Again, if you take me to a beautiful designer furniture store, I will end up wanting to buy the latest funky modular couch or a new sideboard for the hallway.

So I choose to avoid them & have embraced the joy of buying furniture second hand or at auction. I still have my coffee table made of pallet wood (that I bought when I was flat broke) and my Oak Dining table I got for $100 at the local auction house.

I love the personality of these pieces and the fact they are part of my story. They have  a beautiful soul and energy and I couldn’t bear to part with them for something that

s only just come out of a factory.


Annual saving: $5,000

 

30. Fine Dining

We love eating out a couple of times a month, but rather than frequenting the latest trendy restaurants, we seek ‘Tasty AF’ super authentic & simple super little eateries.

This also replaces take-out and actually saves us money and is a whole lot more fun.

We still enjoy fine dining at our favorite places but save it for special occasions.

 

 

Annual saving: $5,000

 

31. Clothes

The clothing industry & fast fashion are wrought with so many issues – from cheating massive amounts of landfill to the environmental impact from use of materials to the exploitation of labour forces.

I’m a big believer in circular fashion and love to hunt for treasure at my favorite Thrift and Second Hand stores.

But even here, overconsumption can be an issue and I currently have way too many pieces in my wardrobe. So for 2023, I’ve set myself a ‘no buy’ challenge. Wish me luck!

Annual saving: $5,400

 

32. Personal Trainers

This one shocked me as I expected it to appear somewhere in the middle of the pack.

We choose to attend group PT sessions rather than having private ones – and we ‘pay as we go’ (ie, we don’t have gym memberships)

The savings, based on just 2 sessions per week for the 2 of us, is astounding!

Annual saving: $12.320

 

 

So there you have it!

Which of these has inspired you?

Let me know below – where will you save more money & spend more mindfully?

Remember that the next step is using those savings WISELY.
If you need help with that, thenMagnetic Money®️ Management Bootcamp is for you!

Have an awesome day!!

5 UNEXPECTED money habits that make you rich

5 UNEXPECTED money habits that make you rich

Let’s talk about 5 unexpected money habits that will make you richer.

But we won’t be talking about writing your goals, getting up early or even the importance of being frugal investing & saving.

Instead, we’ll cover 5 unexpected money habits that will shift your internal state which will translate to more money in the bank.

Because THIS is the real reason the rich get richer. It’s not because they’re already rich, but because they already FEEL and THINK that they’re rich.

We’ll cover 5 habits that will make you richer inside and out. The 5th one is the most important one as it supercharges the rest.

I’ll also give you a super simple practical way you can check in with yourself to help fast-track your wealth.

Let’s start by asking: 

  •   Why do you want the money?
  •   How much do you want?
  •   And how much is enough?
  •   What will you do with it?
  •   And why is that important to you?

As you dig into your reasons for wanting more money, you’ll end up realizing that what you ultimately want is a FEELING.

You want to feel abundant, rich, free to make choices, to be master of your universe.

Abundance is a feeling.

You can be rich in terms of assets and money in the bank – or you can be rich in terms of how you feel internally.

And the two don’t necessarily go together!

There are plenty of people who have loads of money and still don’t feel rich.

They still worry about & stress about money.

And this internal feeling of poverty makes them continue chasing more and more money externally. But unfortunately, it never feels like enough.

So we’re going to be talking about the OPPOSITE of that, because we want you to be rich inside and out.

Because feeling abundant is an inside job.

And the beautiful thing is that the more abundant and rich you feel internally, the more money and cool stuff you’ll end up having in your external life.

Because as you start to think and feel more abundant and like you are already rich – as you EXPECT to be rich – you’ll start to talk, walk and do things differently.

You’ll start acting like a rich person.

This is why the rich get richer!

The rich don’t get richer just because they already have money to leverage.

The rich get richer because they THINK like the rich, they EXPECT to be rich, they DO the things that rich people do.

They show up in ways that say, “I expect to be successful. I have plenty of money, I’m loving it and I expect to have plenty more.”

How cool is it to think that you can have what you REALLY want right now?

Because you can choose to start feeling abundant right here, right now.

And as you start to feel richer and more abundant internally, it’s going to change the way you show up. It’s going to change the way you think, the way you feel, the way you approach life. It’ll change the choices and decisions you make.

And that’s going to have a massive effect on the results you get. 

And this in turn helps reinforce that feeling and thinking of, “Yes, of course. I have it sorted. I am rich, I am wealthy, I am abundant. Things always work out for me.”

And so it becomes this beautiful self-fulfilling prophecy that gathers its own momentum.

So let’s cover these 5 habits & then I’ll give you that practical tip.

No.1: Pay your bills with gratitude.

You can literally have a bill paying party. You can light candles, play music, whatever you like. But most importantly, when you pay your bills, make sure you’re in a really positive frame of mind.

Send gratitude for the services you received in exchange for those bills, for having the money to pay them and for the fact that these people know you’re abundant enough to pay.

When you sit down and you pay your bills from this space – rather than a place of begrudgingly handing over your money – it changes everything.

It reinforces to your unconscious mind that you do have the money and that you’re getting plenty of cool things in return for that money.

 

No.2: Spend with joy!

When you’re spending money, do it from a place of joy.

Be really grateful and happy about the things you’re buying. And have dedicated fun money that you can spend with gratitude – free of worry or guilt that something else is missing out.

Make sure you are really present, really conscious, and that you plan in advance what cool fun things you’re going to be doing with this money.

Again, it helps reinforce that you are this beautiful, abundant person who’s got plenty of money.

When you spend money with joy, feeling rich and abundant, loving what you’re getting in return, it uplevels your inner state of abundance.

And that makes you magnetic to more.

 

No.3: Celebrate the evidence!

When money comes in, celebrate it! Stop and acknowledge it and don’t discount it.

So many people will discount their money, thinking ‘it doesn’t count’ because they were expecting it or it was owed to them or because it’s not enough.

But when you do that, you’re telling your money that it’s not important and you downgrade your abundance vibe, rather than taking this amazing opportunity to say, “YES! There it is! Money flowing to me right here, right now! I’m so abundant!”

Whether it’s 1 cent, 10 cents or $10million dollars, it’s still the energy of money showing up in your life. And the more you acknowledge, celebrate and welcome it with open arms, treating it as EVIDENCE of your abundance, the more will flow.

Let’s press pause & check in:

Is this easy or what?  Let me know in the comments below that you KNOW you can do this!

But the key is to get into the HABIT of doing these things!

A habit is something you keep doing over and over and over, until it’s totally second nature.

But you want to make sure you get into the RIGHT habits. And that’s why the fifth one  we’re going to cover is by far the most important one.

But first, let’s talk about the fourth unexpected money habit that will help you get rich.

 

No.4: Say no from a place of empowerment!

When you say no to spending money, when you say no to expenses, when you say no to going out to another fancy dinner with your friends, or joining them on am expensive holiday – because YOU are busy focusing on another financial goal right now – do it from a place of empowerment!

Do it from a place of “I’ve got a plan and I’m sticking to it. I’m not going to anything derail me.”

This is when you can say no to spending money from a place that feels really good.

And this, of course, helps you feel richer, more in control of your money, more abundant and like you’ve got it all covered.

And that uplevels your mindset and energy, which makes you magnetic to more.

How cool is that?

Before we move onto No.5, let me reiterate what I hope you’ve picked up on by now.

These habits are about you learning to FEEL rich and abundant right now – rather than chasing the external money and abundance.

It’s about shifting your energy from desperately pulling at something and trying to get rich (which just reinforces the lack of it) to chilling out, enjoying where you are and being excited about more to come.

It’s about starting to allow yourself to feel rich and abundant right here, right now.

This completely changes your energy and helps you become magnetic to more. And THAT is what helps you get rich!

And this is why this 5th money habit to help you get rich is so important…

Because I bet you’ve been busily taking notes so that you can do these things to become richer.

Which means that you are still TRYING to get rich! You’re prepared to do the things we just talked about – but only because they’ll help you get richer.

But this is why the fifth money habit is the most critical one.

 

No.5: Decide that you’re ALREADY rich!

You don’t want to do anything to try and get rich (other than of course being smart with your business strategy and how you manage your money).

But in terms of the way you show up, don’t do it with an ulterior motive.

  •  Pay your bills with gratitude because you are grateful.
  •  Spend with joy because it is a joy to spend.
  •  Say no from a place of empowerment because you are empowered.
  •  Celebrate the evidence because it is evidence of your abundance.

 

Remember, the world on the outside of you is just a reflection of what’s going on inside of you.

The world is your mirror.

 

When you look in the mirror of the world around you, do you like what you see?

  •  Do you see an abundant version of you?
  •  Do you see a life that’s a reflection of your internal abundance?

 

Abundance is a State Of Being.

It’s not until we can BECOME a more abundant version of ourselves, until we can transform and uplevel our mindset, our energy, our habits, that we can have that more consistent level of physical abundance in our life.

Before you go, let me share a practical tip to help you accelerate and fast track your wealth.

Stop for a moment, put down your pen or anything in your hands, take a deep breath in and take a moment to check in with yourself.

How rich and abundant do you feel right here, right now? If you had to put a dollar figure on it, what number comes to mind?

And THAT tells you exactly how you’re doing!

Because if you’re feeling rich and abundant, right here, right now, THAT is what you’re in the process of creating and attracting!

And if you’re feeling like there’s not quite enough in the bank and there’s a sense of lack and limitation internally, THAT is what the world will mirror back to you.

It’s a quick way to get a little heads up so you can do something about it.

The better you get at checking in with yourself, knowing where you are at (and being honest with yourself), the more you’ll be able to fast track your wealth.

This is why the very first key we cover in Magnetic Money® is #NOTICE.

It’s all about self-awareness.

We notice the things we’re doing, how we’re feeling, what we’re saying, and the thoughts that are spinning through our minds. 

And the more we become self-aware and practice using the tools at our disposal, the more we can uplevel our internal state to become a more abundant version of ourselves.

And this will be reflected back by our external world.

Now, if feeling rich and abundant – regardless of how much is in the bank right now – feels a little too challenging, then you probably have some old money stories & limiting beliefs going on.

This can keep you stuck in a Catch 22 where you can’t feel rich and abundant until there’s more money in the bank. And until you feel more abundant, the money can’t flow.

 

If that’s going on for you, then check out the episode linked below, because it will help you figure out what those old money story and limiting beliefs are.

See you there!
