How to Become a Money Magnet

As someone interested in the Law of Attraction, I imagine you have probably asked yourself, "What do I need to do in order to become a money magnet?" The answer to that question is far more simple than you may imagine, and at the same time a bit tricky. Allow me to explain.

Most people, when first learning how to use the Law of Attraction, decide to go after things they "want". The problem with this is that "wanting", in the strictest sense of the word, means "lacking". So these folks start off by focusing energy on lack, and get nothing back. Then, angrily muttering to themselves, they denounce the Law of Attraction and resume their daily lives.

But not you, right? You’re a smart cookie! You know there’s something to the Law of Attraction. You know you just need to learn how to use it and your life will be opened up to your wildest dreams.

You would be correct.

So how do you become a money magnet and start attracting money into your life?

First and foremost, value the money you already have. When you receive a paycheck, meager though it may seem, appreciate it fully! Without that, you would have nothing, and something is always better than nothing when it comes to money. Feel gratitude for the money you have already – at least it pays for what things you can currently afford.

When you see a penny on the ground, this is a test. A penny is money. To your subconscious mind, as well as the universe, money is money. When you ignore that penny, you are sending a clear signal saying "I do not want money". Obviously, this isn’t a message you want to send. Pick up that penny and be grateful for finding it. Because you know the secret now – that penny is a test for your abundance awareness.

It is jokingly said that Bill Gates would stop everything to pick up a penny, despite the fact that he is a multi-billionaire. Rather than see that as a statement of greed, I see it as a statement of magnetism. If we stop spending time chastising people we are jealous of, we might just learn something.

As your subconscious begins to get the idea that money is important to, valuable to, and much appreciated by you, more will begin to show up. Stay aware of money coming in, and keep your mind in a receiving mode. Be sure to stop and appreciate each bit of money that comes your way.

Finally, an opportunity will come your way to help you really make the big bucks. Keep your eyes and your mind open and be ready for it. When this opportunity presents itself, you will feel it inside, and know that it is time to act. You must always be ready to act on opportunities that you attract, lest you lose your desired outcome by turning away. Don’t expect to manifest a million dollars directly into your bank account – the process of life is organic, and the way in which your manifestations will come to you will probably be a bit more gradual than that.

From the outside, these things will appear to be "luck", "chance", or "being in the right place at the right time". In reality, there is no such thing as any of those – there is only the Law of Attraction and magnetization.

Remember that there are TWO crucial things you need to do to attract money. Most people get the first one right and completely neglect the second. Are you doing the same thing? Learn more about how to attract money easily.

Lottery and Law of Attraction: Avoid These 7 Mistakes

Is it really possible to win the lottery using the Law of Attraction? I've seen plenty of "experts" say no - that it's a "selfish" goal, that you're trying to "get something for nothing" which the universe won't support, and other reasons that seem plausible at first glance.

However, I happen to disagree with all of these reasons simply because I have proven to myself that the Law of Attraction can be used for anything - including winning the lottery. How do I know for sure? Because I've done it. No, I haven't won millions of dollars or anything so grand - but I did manage to transform myself from a person who almost NEVER won the lottery, to a person who wins something almost every time she buys tickets, including some really decent prize amounts - and they keep getting bigger the more I work on it. To me that's pretty impressive proof!

The thing about all of the so-called reasons why we can't win the lottery with the Law of Attraction is that they are simply BELIEFS. Anyone who believes them cannot experience anything that conflicts with those beliefs. They believe it's impossible, so it's impossible (for them). I always believed it was possible to start winning more often, so it has been possible for me.

Here's another important point: the universe sees NO DIFFERENCE between you asking for a lottery win, a better job, a new car, a loving relationship or anything else you would ask for! Do you think any of these things are "too much" for the universe to handle? Of course not. It's only our own perceptions that make things seem too big or too small.

How to Win the Lottery With the Law of Attraction

To attract lottery wins, you need to do the same thing you would to attract anything else: start visualizing it daily! The more consistent you are, the more consistently you'll start to see positive results.

However, there ARE some common mistakes that people make when attempting to do this, and these mistakes are often enough to throw up huge blockages in their "energy signal", which prevents them from getting results.

Below I've highlighted seven of the most common mistakes:

1) Trying to win too much, too fast.

It would be great to win a huge jackpot, and it's not impossible to do - but it is extremely unlikely that you'll go from chronic lack to being an instant millionaire. Instead, it's much more likely that you will start winning smaller amounts first - which then keep getting bigger and more frequent - which will eventually lead to the bigger win. Unfortunately, most people don't know this and they think it's not working, and they make this next mistake:

2) Getting angry when you don't win (or win small amounts).

What kind of message are you sending to the universe when you get mad that you don't win (or win smaller amounts)?? Yikes! As hard as it may be, you need to start celebrating EVERY WIN. Even if it's just a dollar. And when you don't win at all? Just shrug your shoulders and say, "That's okay, I'll win next time. I always win!" You may not believe it at first, but the more you keep emphasizing it, the more it will become true for you.

3) Buying too many tickets.

Please do yourself a favor and keep your lottery spending in moderation. Buying more tickets will NOT help you win faster! If you're not in alignment with winning, you simply won't win no matter how many tickets you buy.

4) Dismissing intuition.

Have you ever had a hunch that you should play a certain number in the lottery, or buy a certain instant scratch ticket? Pay attention to those nudges! The last time I listened to one of them, I ended up being $500 richer.

5) Focusing on lack between visualizations.

Another common mistake people make is spending 15 minutes visualizing themselves winning the lottery, and the rest of the day complaining and feeling angry about not having enough money! Visualizing yourself winning is not enough to transform your entire financial life. You also need to get into alignment with abundance by thinking positively about money and all forms of abundance.

6) Expecting the lottery to solve your financial problems.

This seems to make sense - because after all, winning the lottery would take care of a lot of financial concerns, right? But the catch is that you CAN'T win the lottery from a mindset of having financial problems - you can only win from an abundant mindset! That means you need to resolve your mental focus on lack before you can allow the lottery win into your life. I know, it sounds like a horrible "catch-22" but it's true.

7) Being "attached" to winning the lottery.

Another of those annoying "catch-22" situations is that you cannot win the lottery if you desperately NEED to win. The more you feel needy and desperate to have that money, the farther out of your reach the money will move. The reason is obvious; by feeling needy and desperate you can only experience situations in which you continue to feel needy and desperate. Winning the lottery won't be one of them! To win the lottery, you need to ALREADY feel abundant - just as you will when you do win.

Does it seem hard to believe that you can really use the Law of Attraction to win the lottery?
