The Laws of Creating Wealth and Abundance

The Laws of Creating Wealth and Abundance is a result of practicing the Laws of Prosperity. For now, we should focus on how we can have that wealth and abundance in our life.

The power of thought is an instrument for success or failure. Failure is basically the result of failure thinking. The right use of your mind could become the key to healthy, happy, prosperous, successful living.

You've heard much about positive thinking. Now, we'll use the new term - prosperous thinking. 'Prosper' means to 'flourish, succeed, thrive, to experience favorable results.' Prosperous thinking gives you the power to make your dreams come true, whether those dreams are concerned with better health, increased financial success, a happier personal life, or a deeper spiritual life.

Years ago, a salesman used the power of prosperous thinking, although he may not consciously been aware of it. When people asked him, 'How's business?' he always gave his standard answer: Business is wonderful because there's gold dust in the air!' For him it certainly seemed to be so - every contact became a sale.

1. You cannot get something for nothing
The basic law of prosperity speaks of sowing and reaping, or giving and receiving. Emerson described it as the law of compensation, whereby like attracts like. When people do not give or sow in terms of prosperity, they make no contact with God's lavish abundance, and so there is no channel formed through which the rich, unlimited substance of the universe can pour forth its riches to them.

2. You can always give something
There’s always something a person can give, either tangibly or intangibly, that will put him in touch with God’s rich supply. You can donate some of your money to the church or to your favorite charity. Or, you can teach a colleague about how a new computer program works, or you can give up your seat in a bus or train for an old man or pregnant woman.

3. Radiate and you will attract
I have observed in talking to hundreds of people who have gone from failure to success that it is what we really think deep within ourselves most of the time that unconsciously attracts like results to us. There is an age-maxim that says, “We are where we are because we are what we are, and we are what we are because of our habitual thinking,

4. Mental preparation comes first
All things can be accomplished within the mind first because it is the connecting link between the formed and the unformed world. It’s up to you to claim your great good over everything and to dare change or reform your world as you wish!

5. Be deliberate about your wealth
What you do radiate or deliberately entertain mentally you constantly attract. Instead of fretting about whether the law of radiation and attraction is working tightly in the lives of others, proceed quietly to prove the law of prosperous thinking for yourself.

6. You are Magnetic
Each of us is a magnet! And as a magnet, you do not have to force success and prosperity to yourself. Instead, you can develop that exalted, expectant, prosperous state of mind that is a magnet for all good things of the universe to hasten to you. Stop thinking that people, things, circumstances and conditions have power to hurt or harm you. Start realizing that nothing can stand between you and that good that you dare to choose mentally and radiate outward through your thoughts, feelings, words and expectancies.

7. Outer steps will come easily
Of course, I do mean to imply that you simply entertain and radiate the mental equivalent of the good desired, and then do nothing more. Wealth will not fall magically onto your lap. Often you have to take definite external steps as well. But you will discover that, by working out the mental concept of the desired good first, the outer steps will then unfold easily – almost automatically at times – without strained effort on your part. The more you turn your mind in rich directions, the more you have a way of going forth and producing right opportunities, events and circumstances for prosperity and success.

8. Put your best foot forward
Another way to ‘look up’ regardless of financial appearances, is to put your best foot forward. Wear your best clothes; look your best. Live as richly as possible on what you already have.

9. Make room for your good
We all want better financial conditions and we should have them. Here is one way to obtain them: Do not talk about financial lack, but begin thinking in terms of the rich, universal abundance that is everywhere. Do not talk about other people's lack as you are emitting negative thoughts to them which you will attract back to yourself. Instead, pray for them. Then learn to let go, to give up, to make room for the things that you prayed for, worked for and so strongly desire. As you give up old ideas, attitudes, old possessions, and put in their place new ideas of prosperity and progressive achievements, your conditions will steadily improve.

10. Write down your desires
The law of creative prosperity is to take your deep-seated desires, and instead of suppressing them as impossible dreams, begin expressing them constructively through deciding what they really are. Keep yourself a journal, or a diary and make a list or draw up some kind of potential plan, which you should feel free to change, revise, reform and rearrange as your ideas about it unfold. Your writing out your desires and formulating a plan on paper clarifies the desires in your mind, and the mind produces definite results only when it has been given definite ideas through which to work.
