"Install New Money Buttons And Feel Your Way To Financial Freedom" by: Zoe Routh
What keeps people from being wealthy is negative emotional money buttons. Your 'money buttons' are buttons that get pressed when you have certain negative thoughts about money. Negative thoughts produce negative experiences that in turn create more negative thoughts and feelings and therefore more negative results.
This thought-feeling-response-thought-feeling pattern gets repeated over and over and wears a deep energy pattern into your psyche. It is like playing the same record or tape over and over again. If you want a new record or tape to play, one that makes you feel good and produces the results you want (financial freedom), you need to remove the old pattern before you install a new one. Here's how to defuse the negative money buttons and install new ones .
1. Expose your negative money buttons. Complete the checklist in the article, "Expose your money buttons" that you can read here on my website at
http://www.innercompass.com.au/content/view/86/45/
2. Conjure up the thoughts and feelings you typically experience around money. Focus your awareness and attention on where the negative feelings around money turn up in your body. For some this is in the chest, head, or neck. For me, it's in my stomach. It does not matter where it is, just focus on where it shows up for you.
3. Close your eyes and focus your attention on the part that is most intense. Then just put all your attention on what it feels like in that place. After a few minutes open your eyes and notice the difference. Often the feeling dissipates, expands, releases, or shifts. This means you are scrambling the emotional pattern and releasing the energy that has been stuck there for some time.
4. Repeat this exercise every time you have feelings of discomfort around money.
5. At the same time, you can also supersaturate your environment with new beliefs and ideas around money and wealth creation. Read books, articles, magazines about money and wealth creation. Write out your intentions for building wealth - why do you want to be wildly wealthy? Seek out role models who have created what you want to create and learn everything you can about how they did it. Put up pictures and images of the things you want to create and experience as a result of your wealth. This will keep generating feelings of excitement and enthusiasm.
6. The aim of these exercises is to get you feeling good, really good, about money, wealth, and wealth creation. When you feel good, your intuition will guide you to opportunities that will help create whatever it is you desire. The more you resonate with feelings of excitement, energy, enthusiasm, gratitude, and pleasure when it comes to money thoughts, then the more you will be able to attract and create for yourself.
The beauty of this approach is that you feel good from the outset - you feel good visualising your wealth and then your excitement mounts as you implement your plans. Achieving the end result is just as exciting as visualising it. This means there is joy and delight in the creative process.
This is what experiencing true abundance is all about. This is how you feel your way to financial freedom. Subscribe to Compass Bearings at http://www.innercompass.com.au and receive updates on my forthcoming ebook, "Aladdin's lamp - your secrets to fun and financial freedom"

Positive Money Talk.
"Change Your Beliefs About Money" By Leslie Gail.
OK...so I am going to try something different over the next month or so. I have talked with many people who are frustrated with the way their life is turning out. It may be a less than exciting career, a passionless relationship, little to no free time, or all of the above. Unfortunately, the more we complain about what is wrong in our lives, the more unfortunate circumstances we attract to ourselves.
So, I want you to use the next month as an experiment. What do you have to lose? We will highlight the topics that most people complain about; money, relationships, career and health. This weeks topic will focus on money, next weeks tip will highlight relationships and so on. I want you to commit to changing how you think about the various topics for the next month. Money tends to be the root of so much stress and disharmony between people. What people don't realize is that the more you complain about money and the lack of money in your life, the more you create circumstances that feed into that belief.
So, for the next 30 days I want you to play a game of make believe. I want you to pretend you are financially abundant. I want you to believe with all your heart that you are attracting wealth and opportunities into your life. Remember, you have absolutely nothing to lose here. You are simply changing the way you think and act around money.
ACTION TIPS FOR THE WEEK:
1. ACT
This week I want you to act like you are financially abundant. I want you to say affirmations every single day. Some examples could be "I am financially abundant" or "I am attracting financial wealth and opportunities to myself every single day". Every time you find yourself complaining...'we'll never be out of debt'...'I'll never have enough money'...stop and replace the thoughts with the above thoughts.
2. BELIEVE
The next step in changing how you believe about money is to truly believe the above statements. You can't simply say "I am financially abundant", when deep down you are contradicting the belief with thoughts like "This isn't true, so what's the point, I'll always have money issues" You need to truly believe that you are attracting wealth into your life. What would it feel like to have financial freedom? Close your eyes and feel it.
3. CREATE
Now that you have said the statements and you are beginning to believe them as well, it's time to open yourself up to creating them. Allow yourself the opportunities to create wealth in your life. You need to act in accordance with your beliefs. If you are making the statements, but then you are going out every day spending money you don't have, you are setting yourself up to fail. Create a lifestyle that embodies what you truly want!
Good Luck!Have a great week!

Correct Way Of Affirming
"How To Supercharge Your Affirmations With One Little Word" By Hanif Khaki
As many know, affirmations are one of the key ingredients of any self-improvement attempts. When used correctly, you can literally reprogram your mind for success. The constant repetition of positive phrases will help shape your thoughts, actions and feelings so that you may bring your goals to reality.
Unfortunately, however, most people phrase their affirmations incorrectly without even realizing it! Be sure you are not one of them. One of the biggest issues with affirmations is that they need to be phrased in the positive, present tense and with absolute belief. For example, instead of saying “I don’t want to be in debt” your affirmation would state “I am financially free and wealthy.”
The usual advice is; repeat “I am financially free” several times per day. The goal being, to attract the circumstances, attitudes and behaviours that will help you achieve that goal.
However, when you look in the mirror and see yourself saying “I am financially free” over and over again, there is usually some doubt inside you. You just know you aren’t "financially free", and you can see this in the mirror. This creates a conflict and causes feelings of negativity towards yourself and your affirmation as well.
It’s small wonder that so many people give up on affirmations so quickly after they begin. They see it as a waste of time since they don't see any results. However, the affirmations are not to blame. It’s the feelings, emotions, and mood of the people while they are saying the affirmations, that is to blame here.Feelings are critical to reciting affirmations, and the removal of doubt in this process is extremely important. So what is the "one" word you can add that will ensure positive emotions and create faster results?
The word I'm referring to is “becoming”. This word eliminates doubt from the situation. Your conscious mind may not believe that you are "financially free", but it cannot dispute that you are in the process of "becoming" financially free. This rule applies equally to all types of affirmations.
Adding the word “becoming” forces you to remain positive towards the affirmation. Another phrase with similar impact, is “I’m in the process of…”
This phrase can also be added at the beginning of your affirmation. Here are a few examples:
“I am in the process of attracting more money”“I am in the process of getting a big pay raise”“I am in the process of becoming more physically fit.”
These additions to your affirmations will undoubtedly enable you to accept your phrases as being true, which will lead to positive emotions. Emotions, after all, are really the key to attracting your goals.
