Can You REALLY Think and Grow Rich?

March 9, 2016

OH, BOY!

I tried this in the 70 and 80’s. The motive: if I really, really thought about being rich, would I actually become rich? Well, it was worth a try!

Another mantra that was popular back then: “If you think like a millionaire and act like a millionaire, then eventually, you will become a millionaire!”

How many of us bought into that one? (Right up until the first Visa bill came in!)

The word ‘rich’ is a term defined by each individual. Some have a specific dollar value in mind, others believe in cash-flow. Either way, they all wish for a time when they don’t have to worry between paychecks and for all their problems to go away.

To ‘Think and Grow Rich’ seems to be a positive goal, but it never is that easy.

The truth is:

If you REALLY think about how to grow rich,

You’ll need to nourish the goal in order to grow.

While studying feng shui, we learn to take control of ourselves and our environment; which includes positive thinking and setting intention when making changes. It is definitely the intention that does 80% of the cure! And, it DOES WORK!

Your intention… NEEDS to be pure, clear and positive.

Your intention… does have to have untainted motivation and direction.

Your intention… really does have to have a purpose, a goal or a vision.

When a feng shui practitioner makes change, it begins with the physical environment. We look at practical things such as:

Ergonomics: Can you reach everything?
Safety: Includes any trip hazards, shelves overhead, etc.
Clutter: Clearing clutter will clear you mentally, emotionally and physical.
EMF’s: All wifi issues and other frequencies or interferences you can’t see.

After the tangible corrections, finding auspicious areas in the home to enhance your goals is the next step. This action will prompt you to ‘think’ differently about your environment.

Feng shui can actually ‘manipulate’ the energy in your space.

For enhancing your wealth area, you first need to find it: Stand at the main door looking into your home or office, your Wealth Area will be in the far right corner. (CLICK HERE for more details for finding your Nine Areas of Life in the Feng Shui Bagua.)

Enhancements can include:

Pictures and images that represent (to you) wealth, success and prosperity.
Vision board with all the things/goals you want to accomplish.
Current awards and certification displayed to remind you and others that you are worthy and respected.
Your Business cards or calling cards are ready to GO!
Any equipment and lights are trouble-free; and anything ‘not working’ is out sight and out of mind. GONE!
Tall plants give you a fresh air exchange and the image that ‘life’ is in your space. A colourful orchid on your desk is also a great enhancement.
Other items to support your goals: consider a small crystal to attract attention, a geode, a table-top fountain, a picture of you and your partner or children, or anything whimsical that makes you feel GOOD!

Intention initiates planning, which brings rewards.

Depending on your goals, the options to enhance your space are numerous; whether you are looking for a partner, or thinking really hard to be rich. Only then, when your space is ready, you can nurture your goals and get closer to attain goals, wishes and wild desires.

I also counsel people about their ‘relationship’ with money. I ask: ‘Do you have respect for the hard-earned money coming in, as you spend it going out?’ Be logical and keep track of your spending. Your diligence with money will expand to take care of any other things in life.

Yes, YOU CAN THINK AND GROW RICH! It is not only the lucky that can be successful and grow rich. And, if you think through with feng shui, you’ll have an advantage.

All the best,

Kathryn
