Dear Friends,  I struggled with money the same way I struggled with the alcoholic. I'm now thinking about money differently...you don't have to detach with love. Attach with love!!! LOL

"Being poor is a frame of mind." -- Mike Todd


What do you think of money?

Our beliefs create our reality. If you have struggled with money most of your adult life, chances are that something happened when you were young to create limiting beliefs around money and prosperity. Look back to your early years. What beliefs did your parents and other influential adults have about money? Chances are you’re also carrying those beliefs. Are they serving you?


“The law of abundance is that everything replicates after its own kind. Like is attracted to like. If you want more wealth, concentrate of wealth; think thoughts of abundance and wealth.” -- Delfin Knowledge System

Always in love, Lani

  For me, I have to have thoughts of abundance in other areas of life first or a variety of areas.  I like to have an abundance of positive thoughts or Possibilities.  (to see possibilities).  (what I CAN DO).  I also, like to have an abundance of Health, well...at near 50 now, the best I can work towards.  Then a spiritual center or good things IN the heart...then, it seems the money or security follow!   Great topic!


And yep, I still carry those thoughts I learned about money from my parents with me to this day!  Are they serving my needs?  Sometimes, yes, sometimes, no.   I am still working on this issue.   We were frugal, now I am married to an impulsive A.  (And somewhere, along the way, I believe I will always be a minimum wage earner, and will never be any more than that.)  Am I selling myself short?  Have I in the past?


Today, do I sell myself short again or reconsider --there may be errors in my thinking?
