That's so about everything.  If you believe it, that's how your world occurs for you, positive or negative, regardless of any "real world" truth that other people believe.  And when it comes to abundance, have you noticed that regardless of what the "real world" truth is, some people follow their own path and create great fortunes for themselves, even amidst economic turmoil?  Some folks manage to live an abundant lifestyle, whatever that means for them -- and it doesn't always mean having boatloads of cash or things 'n stuff. Maybe even because of economic turmoil,  people find ways to generate value and have abundance flowing freely into their experience.   

Of course, those people are taking inspired action.  And where does that inspiration come from?  From what you choose to believe, for one thing.  So, how about telling yourself a new story about abundance and generating value for yourself and for the world?  How would you feel if you were completely calm, confident, and enthusiastic about receiving, spending, and saving money, and having plenty left over for making a huge positive difference in the world?  Would it be worth trying on some new thoughts that feel good when you think them?   You may find yourself resisting certain thoughts about money, because you've been practicing believing bad-feeling ones for so long.  Bad-feeling thoughts about money and abundance have been drummed into our heads from all kinds of sources, and now you have the opportunity to just put them aside for the moment, and try on some better feeling thoughts.  Don't worry, you can have your old bad-feeling thoughts back afterwards, if you still want them.  

Start by reaching for a slightly better-feeling thought.  If you believe that the love of money is the root of all evil, you're probably not going to just blindly buy into a thought like, "Money is GOOD!"   So try on a thought that feels just a little bit better.  Maybe something like, "I don't have to LOVE money; I could just use it for my highest good and the highest good of others."  If that doesn't feel good, try something else, like, "The love of money is the root of some evil, but not all of it.  There's also Kenny G's music, for one thing."   

And if a thought feels good, go ahead and enjoy that good feeling, and then reach for an even better feeling thought:  "Maybe money is neither good nor bad; maybe that old saw just isn't true.  It's possible for me to feel pretty good, have enough, or maybe a little more than enough, and to accomplish things that are right in step with my values."  And then, maybe;  "It does feel pretty good to be able to focus on the things I'm passionate about, not having to spend a lot of time feeling anxious about how I'm gonna pay my rent.  In that way, money really can be good!"  And then it's just a hop, skip, and a jump to really good feeling thoughts about money.  

I've created an eight minute video with binaural beats (use headphones for best results) with some nice pretty dollar signs, and my voice will go with you, just gently and relaxingly suggesting some better feeling thoughts about money.   If these thoughts don't resonate perfectly for you, go ahead and write or record your own better feeling story, and use my content-free binaural beats video to get yourself easily and effortless into an alpha state, so that you can program your unconscious mind to have you feeling really rich.
