None of us really enjoy talking about money ? I promise I’ll make this painless though; you can come out from under your desk now. Before I get started, let’s recap our last talk. I told you how spending time around people who are successful can help you to achieve the things that you want out of life. If you are trying to get ahead, you need to spend less time around people who will hold you back.

Now let me explain that I’m not telling you to ditch your friends and family. However, it has to be noted that there is a correlation between the people you spend time around and your income. Think about your social circle and how they relate to money. Are they happy with their lives and financially independent, or are they always worried and broke?

You have to become more aware of how money works and to spend more of your time with people who have money and have it coming in consistently. When you associate with those who already have achieved your goals, you can learn from them. After all, if they have achieved financial freedom, they have to be doing something right.

Wealthy people understand that money is nothing more than energy and when they have the right mindset concerning money, they consistently get it. Most people think they can only enjoy financial freedom after putting out the blood, sweat and tears to get it; but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

To attract money, you have to have a good relationship with it. Since money is a form of energy, all you have to do is be able to attract it to you. This energy is all around you, waiting to be tapped into.

This is the biggest thing which separates the wealthy from the poor- this understanding of how money works. This is also why you need to do something you love. This helps you to build a better relationship with money; and the better your relationship with money; the easier it will be to attract it.

If you want to become a success, the best thing that you could do is to feel good about your work. Look at the most successful people in the world ? they do what they love and love what they do. You can of course make money doing things you don’t like to do, but this will limit your success. This is because you are doing something which does not match up with the things you truly want.

Secondly, spend time with people who make a lot of money and observe them. You will find out quickly that their energy, actions and words are probably very different from your own. You won’t hear a wealthy person say, “I can’t afford that.” That’s because they understand that money is nothing more than energy ? there’s no such thing as not having enough. It simply comes down to how they feel about money. The wealthy feel good about money; the poor worry about money. In both cases, their relationship (or energy alignment) determines how much or little they have.

The goal is to find a way to feel good about money in whatever way you can. When you feel good about money and have a positive relationship with it, you will absolutely attract it.
