I thought about writing this article for a while now. I have had conflicting thoughts on the matter. I belong to a forum that is run by Rebecca Fine. Her website is scienceofgettingrich.net. I deeply respect her advice and it is the advice of Wallace D. Wattles, the author of the book by the same name. That advice says that you should not talk of the times when you were young when times were lean. I believe that. Maybe I am rationalizing and maybe I actually know what I am doing. I do not really believe that my younger years were all that lean. I mean they were but when I was in that time I didn’t really see it that way.
The reason I am telling this story is to illustrate where our ideas about money come from. Sometimes we don’t even remember. Sometimes it is a small thing and sometimes it is a traumatic thing that happens in childhood. I must warn you that some items in this story can hit a trigger so beware.
Money is a symbol. Our experiences determine what that symbol will be. Religionists say that money is evil. Others say that the love of money is evil. I believe money is the object that gives you the tools to grow and most fully express yourself as a child of the Universe.
Many years ago while I was still a toddler my mother and I lived next door to a whorehouse. Please do not be too shocked or offended. Events are what they are. Without going into details I will tell you I was sold into that whorehouse. There, that’s out of the way. One of the clients named Frank would give me coffee cans full of pennies. In those days coffee cans were big. I have no idea how much money a coffee can full of pennies is.
Most of these facts I do not remember. I only have the stories of other people and hypnosis by which I gathered up “facts” and sort of put together what happened.
My mother took the cans full of pennies and deposited them in the bank in the form of a savings account. She told me that it was for my future. As time went on she withdrew the money and spent it on food, rent or whatever. It took a lot of reflecting to realize where my deep seated beliefs about money came from. I am not going to go into all the connections I made to money but I think you can see. Now many years later I am able to intellectualize all those things and reevaluate my emotions. I am now able to make new distinctions about money and it has unblocked the way for my earning power.
I am sorry for the bluntness of my story. I actually thought it would take a lot more pages to put across my pint. If you find that you are stuck and you are absolutely unable to earn the amount of money you need and want I urge you to trace back through childhood your beliefs about money. Look for where they come from. Determine when it was when you first decided you could not be successful if that is the way you have felt in the past. Then renew your dreams and go for it. Love always prevails. Money will become your friend and the world will be changed by the Faith.
