Do you want to make more money?
Silly question, I suppose. I think most people would like to make more money. What is your reason for making more money? Do you want to feel more secure? Are there things that you would like to buy, trips you want to go on? Looking at your “why” here is quite important because this will determine how you go about creating more.
The number one reason why people want more money is because of a feeling. I could actually say the only reason. You want money to feel secure, powerful, comfortable, happy, joyful, grateful, insert the emotion you are looking for. It may not be the actual money that will give you these feelings, but the things you can buy that you think will give you these feelings. Now here is the secret: you can create these feelings within yourself without any money coming to you. All you need to do is think the thoughts that will generate these feelings. There is nothing outside of you that can create these feelings.

If you can master this, you are on the winning path. However, for a lot of us this is very difficult especially if we don’t have enough to cover our expenses or to look after our families in the way we would like. You want to know the how of making money. And this is completely possible, but it will be so much harder. We have a lot of thoughts about money. “It’s hard to make money.” “I don’t have enough money.” “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” “Money is for other people.” “I am not clever enough.” “I have to work very hard.” These are all very limiting beliefs when it comes to money and the sooner you can clean up these thoughts, the easier it will be to make money.

Money is actually none of these things. It is just made of paper and metals. Yet we have a lot of drama around this paper and metals. Most of us don’t even appreciate it. You have to get back to the grass roots of your relationship with money. If your money was another person, how do you treat them? Do you ignore them, do you dismiss them, do you treat them casually, do you spend time with them, do you push them away?
All these actions manifest in the following ways:
- Ignoring money – Do you look at your bank account? Do you pay attention to what you have, what do you spend on?
- Dismiss money – Do you have money lying at the bottom of your bag, in between your couch cushions, stuffed into your wallet with a lot of slips?
- Treat money casually – Do you have a budget, do you know where your money is going, do you know what you have in your bank account right now? Spend time – Do you plan for your future? Do you save?
- Push money away – Do you just spend as it comes in on whatever you feel like? Do you leave that 5cent lying on the floor?

Hi, I’m Antoinette Porter, your hostess at Live Life Inspired where we will explore what is possible in your life. A life you can look back on and say, “Wow!! I did that!”
These are all ways in which you could be disrespecting your money and then you wonder why you are broke all the time. If you have a good relationship with your money, it’s going to want to hang around. Often we just spend without thinking how much things cost.
But if you really pay attention, you will only pay for things that are worth that amount to you. Just think about this, the most expensive burger in the world right now costs around R100 000. Would you spend this much on a burger. I am assuming not! Would you spend it on a holiday? Possibly. Would you spend it on your child’s education? Very likely. What we are doing though is buying R100 000 burgers with all the impulsive buying because we are not paying attention to the value things have for us.
We are all very good at spending
What we are not so good at is saving and having money. If you question all your purchases for the next month, would you really pay good money for some of those things? For a feeling it will give you?
If you clear up your thoughts and your relationship around money, see how quickly things will change for you. Notice how much money flows to you.
Till next week.
