Simple blog post that I live by...

Most people today have this really terrible habit of repelling money. And when you bring it to their attention their typical response is "no I don't". But their actions, life and bank account tell a different story.


In today's economy, people claim to be fully focused on "attracting money". They'll provide great lip service, but they won't do anything to attract money. Now here's the rub.


Just as it's written in the Bible in the book of James "Faith without works is dead". Well, the law of attraction without ACTION is dead. Read that again. If you think you can just sit on your couch and dream about money coming into your life and then one day become rich then you're on the wrong track my friend.


In order to attract money, you have to be engaged in activities that money is attracted to. Money is attracted to movement. And in this economy, nobody can afford to sit around and wait for things to happen.


To attract money in this recession you have to be completely focused on your goal. Let's say for example you were just laid off your job of 12 years. Now what? You have a wife and kids to support and bills to pay. What do you do?


You cut the fat out of your life, starting with the things you once thought were necessities. Again, get rid of the fat from your life. If you can't manage the money you do have, the universe will not give you anymore.


Movement is key. Instead of saying, "I can't believe I lost my job. It's not fair. It's the economy's fault". Blah, blah, blah. Ask, "What can I do to overcome this adversity? What new trade can I learn how to do? Who can I meet that'll help me achieve the goals in life I wish to achieve? How can I make money from this adversity?"


Then act! That's your job. Stay moving, like liquid. When my business slowed down, I quickly enrolled in a new career. When I decided I didn't like that one, I immediately learned a new trade and began a new career. And you know what? The money started coming quickly. I did not join the "whoa is me" crowd. I joined the entrepreneur crowd and quickly started a new career.


How do you attract money in a recession? Action is critical. Money loves movement. So move. Action! Nothing happens until something moves.

    Great tips Shane, thanks for sharing.

    First off, I don't pay attention to the word "recession." The government or news media does not set my salary: I do.

    Whatever we place our attention on expands. I focus on my goal during most of the day and attract what I need to make it real: ideas, people, etc. I move into consistent action but pull back to attract frequently. To achieve this I take 15 minute breaks every 45 minutes. This pulls me back from work on a consistent basis, allowing me to shift my focus towards a picture of my vision every hour for a sustained period. When I return to work I'm light about it and engage in only goal-achieving activities.

    Action is critical but make sure to keep your mental magnet strong. I see too many spinning their wheels because they focus their attention too much on receiving - otherwise known as work - and do too little visualizing, which is where your attractive magnet is strongest.
