Attracting Wealth by Feeling Happy Now

Your main goal in attempting to attract wealth is to experience the feeling of having plenty of money - which most people would classify as "happiness" (at least it's one form of happiness). That is not a bad goal to have; most of us would deeply enjoy the feelings of joy, empowerment, freedom and inner peace that wealth can provide - and most of us resent the feelings of struggle, scarcity, fear and powerlessness created by not having enough money.

However, you may be under the impression that your wealth must arrive first before you can feel happy - or secure, free, or peaceful. Obviously, this is an illusion because those feelings are not dependent upon a specific set of circumstances.

Regardless of what your current situation may be, you can still choose to feel happy now.

Here are three good ways to start:

- Thoughts of Wealth and Happiness

Have you ever noticed that your thoughts usually correspond with your current experiences? That's not too surprising because as you experience something, you focus on it and think about it. However, you also have the power to choose your thoughts deliberately - and as you choose different thoughts, your circumstances will change.

There is nothing stopping you from thinking thoughts related to wealth and happiness right NOW, before your wealth arrives. In fact, thinking thoughts of wealth and happiness is a sure way to begin drawing wealth toward you.

Start by asking yourself, "If I was truly wealthy, what would I focus on to make myself feel happy?" Then spend time focusing on those things now. Perhaps you would plan lavish vacations around the world. Perhaps you would shop for a brand-new car by comparing prices and features online. You can do these very things now, while holding a firm belief that someday you will be able to follow through with physical action to buy these things.

- Feelings of Wealth and Happiness

Many people, when attempting to attract wealth, spend a little time thinking about wealth but then revert right back to feeling frustrated about not having enough money, feeling pressured by excessive bills, and other negative emotions relating to money.

Turn this around by deliberately moving yourself into a state of positive emotion relating to wealth. As you think about wealth, imagine that you can feel wealth surrounding you right now. How would you feel if you had a large pile of cash on a table in front of you? How would you feel if all of your bills were paid and you still had plenty of money left over? Feel those things now, even if it's only for a few minutes at a time.

- Activities Related to Wealth and Happiness

Lastly, behaving in a way that does not contradict your positive intentions is another excellent way to begin manifesting wealth. Rather than holding back on the many things you would like to do when you have money, you can begin doing some of them now. Obviously you won't do the ones that require large sums of money yet - but there are plenty of activities that you wouldn't hesitate to do if your financial circumstances were different, right? For example, would you hesitate to take a day off from work for some much needed rest? Would you forego hobbies in favor of working all the time? Would you drive all over the city to avoid paying a couple of dollars more for something you needed to buy?

Start by making small changes in your behavior that reinforce your growing belief that you always have more than enough money. As your belief grows, you should notice your financial circumstances changing and allowing the opportunity for even bigger changes later.
