If you don’t have enough money, naturally you don’t feel good about money, but the money in your life will never change while you don’t feel good about it. If you give out negative feelings about money, you’re on a negative frequency about money and you will receive back negative circumstances such as big bills or things breaking down, which are all circumstances that drain you of money. When you react with negative feelings to a big bill, you give out more negative feelings about money, which bring even more negative circumstances to you that drain you of more money.

Every single second is an opportunity to change your life, because in any moment you can change the way you feel. It doesn’t matter what you have felt before. It doesn’t matter what mistakes you think you may have made. When you change the way you feel, you are on a different frequency, and the law of attraction responds instantaneously! When you change the way you feel, the past has gone! When you change the way you feel, your life changes.

“Do not waste one moment in regret, for to think feelingly of the mistakes of the past is to re-infect yourself.”

Neville Goddard

No Excuses for the Force of Love

If your life is not filled with everything you love, it doesn’t mean you’re not a good and loving person. The life purpose for each of us is to overcome negativity by choosing love. The problem is that most people love and then stop loving hundreds of times in a day. They don’t give love long enough for the force of love to move all the good things into their life. Think about it: one moment you give love through a warm hug with a loved one, and then you stop giving love within minutes when you get annoyed because you can’t find your keys or you’re delayed in traffic or you can’t find a parking space. You give love when you laugh with a work colleague, and then stop when you get disappointed because the local lunch place has run out of something you want. You give love as you look forward to the weekend, and then you stop when you receive your bills. And so it continues all through the day; you give love and you stop giving love, give love and stop giving love, give love and stop giving love, from one moment to the next.

You are either giving love and harnessing the force of love, or you’re not. You can’t harness the force of love with an excuse about why you didn’t love. Excuses and justifying why you didn’t love just add more negativity to your life. When you give an excuse as to why you didn’t love, you’re feeling the same negativity again, and so you’re giving out more of it!

“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one getting burned.”

Gautama Buddha
(563-483 BC)
FOUNDER OF BUDDHISM

If you get annoyed because there was a mix-up in an appointment, and you blame the other person for the mix-up, you are using blame as your excuse not to give love. But the law of attraction only receives what
you
are giving, so if you’re giving blame, you must receive circumstances of blame back in your life. It won’t necessarily come back to you from the person you were blaming, but most assuredly you will receive a circumstance of blame. There are no excuses for the force of love. You get what you give – period.

Every Little Thing Is Included

Blame, criticism, finding fault, and complaining are all forms of negativity. All of them bring so much strife. With every little complaint and every moment you criticize anything, you are giving negativity. Complaints about the weather, traffic, the government, your partner, children, parents, long lines, the economy, food, your body, your work, customers, businesses, prices, noise, or service seem like small harmless things, but they bring back with them a whole host of negativity.

Throw out of your vocabulary words like
terrible
,
horrible
,
disgusting
, and
awful
, because when you say those words, they come with strong feelings. When you say them they must return to you, which means you are putting those labels on your life! Don’t you think it would be a good idea to use more words like
fantastic
,
amazing
,
fabulous
,
brilliant
, and
wonderful
?

You can have whatever you love and want, but you have to harmonize with love, and that means there are no excuses for not giving love. Excuses and justifications prevent you from receiving everything you want. They prevent you from having an amazing life.

“All that we send into the lives of others comes back into our own.”

Edwin Markham
(1852-1940)
POET

You don’t make a connection when you complain to a store person and then a few hours later you receive a call from your neighbor complaining that your dog is barking. You don’t make a connection when you meet a friend for lunch and talk negatively about a mutual friend and you arrive back at work to discover big problems have developed with your major client. You don’t make a connection when your dinner conversation is about something negative in the news and that night you can’t sleep because of an upset stomach.

You don’t make a connection when you stop to help someone who has dropped something in the street and ten minutes later you get a parking space right outside the supermarket door. You don’t make a connection when you happily help your child with their homework and the next day you receive news that your tax refund will be bigger than you thought. You don’t make a connection when you do a favor for a friend and, that same week, your boss gives you two complimentary tickets to a sports game. In every circumstance and moment of your life you are receiving what you have given, whether you make the connection or not.
