Manifesting Money

3 Reasons You Aren't Manifesting the Money You Want

You have been doing your affirmations. You’ve been rewriting your desire statement. Your envisioning yourself, living your life when it happens. But no matter what you do, you can’t seem to manifest the money you desire.

If you have been doing all of the manifestation practices you’ve come across in an attempt to manifest more money, yet not receiving it, it likely comes down to one of these three reasons:

#1 - You’re Not Saying You Want It

In the manifestation world, there is a word that has become, in my opinion, misused to the detriment of far too many people. That word is abundance. 

Everyone is out there saying they want to manifest abundance. They want to live in abundance. They are surrounded by abundance. They are envisioning their life of abundance.

But here’s the catch. Abundance is a quantity. It is not money. You can have an abundance of money. You can also have an abundance of french fries. You can have an abundance of stress. So if you are not saying, you desire money and sugarcoating it under the word abundance it’s time to stop.

Besides the fact that abundance isn’t what you really want, your fear of using the word money as though it’s a bad word is a reflection of how you honestly feel about money.

So if you want to manifest more money into your life, claim it own it and let go of any guilt or shame you have around receiving it and holding onto it.

Money does not make you good or bad. Your personality, your values and all of the things that make you you will not change with money unless you allow them to.

#2 - You Don’t Know What The Money You Want Is For

When it comes to manifesting money, so many people are choosing vague numbers that they are trying to manifest without putting any real thought into how much money is required to live their ideal life.

Entrepreneurs chasing 10 K months because someone else told them they should.

Making your first million because it sounds good.

I wanna be a billionaire so effing bad.

But do you know what you would actually do with $10,000 a month? Or with your first million? What about 1 billion?

In order to manifest money, you must know what that money will afford you. Money is simply an exchange for what you truly desire. So you must be clear on what that underlying desire that the money is for really is.

So often, I see my clients say they just want to feel safe and secure, knowing that their bills are paid and that they can afford to do what they want when they want to do it.

But when they added up, their bills only come to $4000 a month, and they don’t really know what they do with the other $6000 they think they need with that $10,000 month.

If you don’t know what you would do with $10,000, you certainly don’t know what you would do with $1 million.

That’s why it’s so hard to manifest… and that’s also why you need to practice thinking bigger with your spending.

(Psst. This is something we start working on on Day 1 of Manifestation Madness)

#3 - You Won’t Allow Yourself To Receive It

This loops back to that misused word of abundance. If you feel shame, guilt, icky, greedy, selfish, not worthy, not ready, or anything else about money, you will not allow yourself to receive it.

This is becoming increasingly difficult in today’s political environment, where we are seeing rich people acting terribly, reinforcing the stereotype that rich people are bad.

And if we believe deep down in our hearts, and in our subconscious mind that rich people are bad, and we don’t want to become bad, we will not allow ourselves to receive money.

If we believe other people need money more than us and it’s selfish for us to accept more than we need, we won’t allow ourselves to receive it.

If you believe that you need to have a masters degree in order to make a certain salary, you will never receive the job offer with the salary you desire as long as you only have a bachelors. 

The good news is, you can let go of these limiting beliefs and reframe your thoughts and beliefs about money.

And even aside from money, so many people, especially women are simply bad at receiving in general. We don’t receive favors we don’t receive help. We don’t receive compliments. Half the time, we are even holding our breath, unable to receive something as simple as oxygen into our lungs.

If any of this resonates with you, stop right now and just allow yourself to receive a breath. Allow yourself to receive that compliment without feeling the immediate need to reciprocate. Just allow yourself to receive. The more you practice receiving the little things, the easier it becomes to receive the big things like money.
