We are taught from youth that “seeing is believing” or that we must see tangible proof before being convinced of something. However this is just one of many backward paradigms our society clings to.

The truth is: what we believe first will manifest into that which we can see.

There will be times when it’s best to pay little or no attention to the things you see around you. Often you are best served to believe firmly in the truth within, so this reality can emerge into the tangible world.

What you are seeing and feeling around you in this moment is largely the result of what you thought, felt, and believed in previous moments. Thus by carefully choosing what you believe to be real, you can have a tremendous impact on the events you experience in the near future.

At first it’s not easy to place your belief in things that are in contrast with what you are seeing and touching around you. But it’s critical that you develop this skill!

You are master of your thoughts, emotions, and your beliefs. You choose the meaning of all things, and you decide what is real in your world.

Once you become adept at believing with every fiber of your mind and body in your choice of reality, you’ll consistently see these truths unfold in the tangible world. Write this on a standard index card now:

BELIEVING IS SEEING!

Place this card in your wallet, at your desk, or anywhere else you’ll see it often throughout every day. It’s important that this truth become ingrained in your unconscious mind and when it does you’ll have access to whole new levels of personal creative power.

Enjoy!

Anyone can choose to be wealthy right now, as in immediately . Read this entire post from start to finish and you’ll understand.

How many times have you seen or heard the phrase "wealth is a state of mind"? And how many times have you simply shrugged this off, or "sort of" believed it to be true?

The fact is, the reality you are living in this moment is the result of thoughts, actions, and feelings from previous moments. Therefore, the reality you’ll experience in the days ahead is the manifestation of what you are thinking, how you are feeling, and the actions you are taking (or not taking) here in this present moment.

Furthermore, wealth is really not a measure of monetary holding. Nor is your net worth figure.

Both of these things are a part of wealth, but neither is the core element. Wealth is about feeling happy, comfortable, abundant, secure, optimistic, excited, and grateful for the current state of your life .

Money is a wonderful spiritual energy but it becomes a negative force when it’s the center of much worry and anxiety. If you earn $40,000 per year and you’re wonderfully grateful for your work, your home, and all the joys your income brings then you are very wealthy indeed!

But if you are fretting the economy, constantly checking your accounts and worrying about how to get more than what you now have, you are pushing wealth away from you. And we’ve all met people with very large bank accounts who behave like this - hence my point that wealth is about more than just dollar amounts.

Being wealthy just means you feel abundant in the moment and you are aware of the fact that you deserve to prosper. From this center your actions will reflect a sincere desire to create and allow even more to come into your life.

I had a very difficult time grasping this concept. I paid lip service to it for months, but never really felt into it.

Then one day something shifted inside me. It all seemed so incredibly clear. I realized that by always wanting more from a feeling of not yet having enough I was creating a constant process of lack and poverty.

Only when I began to express true moment to moment gratitude and live each day from the place of really having and enjoying the many blessings in my life did I understand the truth about wealth .

In particular, look at the underlined statement above about really having . If you hold $1,000 in your savings account but constantly bemoan the fact that you don’t have $5,000, it’s as if you don’t have the first thousand at all… because you don’t really appreciate it!

In the above scenario, change perspective and rejoice in the fact that you have $1,000 above and beyond the money you circulate for each month’s necessities! This is the nature of wealthy thinking - it’s all about starting each day, in fact launching each thought from a positive attitude .

Some readers will have a moment of clarity as they absorb this post. Others will get a vague feel for what I’m saying, but won’t fully comprehend the magnitude. Still others will roll their eyes and say "whatever".

This amazing truth reveals itself fully when the individual is ready to understand.

To this end I wish you much prosperity and quick understanding. Also I invite you to download my free report about how to manifest money into your life starting right away.

The first thing we learn about how to manifest reality is the value of focusing our emotions and the images we hold in our mind. It?s critical, we are told, to focus vividly on exactly what we want and hold this intention both faithfully and joyfully at all times.

This is an accurate explanation of how to get started. But the fact is sometimes manifesting your desires has more to do with letting go and releasing your attachment.

It took me quite a while to figure this out. Looking back I had read about this important part of the process many times, but it hadn?t appealed to my ego and therefore I failed to give it proper attention.

While our starting point in the manifestation process is focusing our whole being on our intentions, too much intensity will actually derail our efforts. Remember the law of attraction works by virtue of the vibrations we are holding in the moment.

If you constantly and with great fervor focus your thoughts, feelings, physical energy, and visual faculties on things you want, it?s likely you will be paying attention to what is missing form your life at this time. For example, thinking about the money you desire 24 hours a day is sure to trigger thoughts of lack and images of yourself currently being without this specific amount of money.

Your acknowledgment of lack, coupled with the intense emotions and projection of deliberate manifestation exercises, can be a recipe for attracting more lack.

This is not easy to accept. In fact it?s a little bit outrageous if we?re being blunt.

But it?s critical to your success that you understand the fine line between intentional manifestation and counterproductive obsession. I won?t pretend to understand every nuance and fine point involved in the process of creation (nor should anyone else!) but experience has taught me that remaining somewhat detached from my desires is the most effective approach.

By living in the present moment, allowing your natural happiness to emerge, and believing in your desires with relaxed confidence, you create the vibration that will attract or manifest the things you seek. Whereas becoming consumed by your desire tends to slow or completely defeat the manifestation process.

The best advice I can give you is to remain relaxed and focus on having fun. Enjoy the process of visualizing, affirming, and believing but do not allow these activities to dominate your life.

Humanity has a long way to travel before we can understand fully all the mysteries of universal intelligence. Perhaps one day we?ll have access to specific metaphysical knowledge that allows us to work with virtual reality models during the process of manifestation; but in the meantime we must trust our intuitive guidance systems.

And if you listen both your intuition and your emotions will tell you that letting go is the true key to realizing your destiny. It?s more than fine to want the things you want, just don?t allow your ego to dominate you and lead you down the path of obsession.

In summary: Know what you want and intend it vividly; then relax and live your life in the present moment, happy with what you have and content in the belief that great things are on the way to you.
