The Secret Seminar and Money
What the secret seminar, and the science of getting rich, teach us about money.
"I am no longer cursed by poverty because I took possession of my own mind, and that mind has yielded me every material thing I want, and much more than I need. But this power of mind is a universal one, available to the humblest person as it is to the greatest." -Andrew Carnegie
Money is one of the topics that gives people pause when it comes to the Law of Attraction and the Science of Getting Rich. An educated adult that looks at the world--hey, even a five year old can see it--sees that some people have everything they want and some people seem to have everything they abhor with a little joy in there to keep them sane. The assumption that arises from observing this scenario is that it is wrong to want money for yourself. Every time you hear a person mention another who has more money than them, somehow that richer person is evil.
Even where I go to school, at NYU film school, with most of the people in my program coming from families with plenty of money, even there, you hear them talk about George Lucas as evil because he’s made a lot of money and someone like Werner Herzog (a master of the craft from Germany) as righteous because he’s made enough money but not so much that he’s evil. There’s this attachment to mediocrity in relation to money that has arisen along with its positive aspect--social consciousness. If you are in a place where you would like to attract more dollars into your experience, I would recommend you remove your attention from the idea that there’s something wrong with rich people, which is something that The Secret Seminar (http://www.the-secretseminar.com) teaches. I don’t have a fancy argument for why its the best move for the world as a whole, except to say, that if the principle that says “what you are defines the whole of humanity” has any truth to it (and a survey of history certainly seems to demonstrates its veracity), then you must choose to train your attention on the positive aspects of money.
Training on money’s destructive powers only increases those powers. It doesn’t in any way make you more prepared to meet them as if in a battle. On the contrary, the best way to ensure you never experience lack is to think about abundance as the norm in your life and to not think of lack at all.
Also remove your attention that there’s something fundamentally foreign about rich people. When you see someone driving a nice car, think how you would feel to be driving the car of your choice. If you like that feeling, grant them forgiveness for not being you. And that includes your feelings on those Hummer drivers! I understand the feelings, I do, but I don’t see any reason to make global warming worse by focusing on how horrible it is. Just say “good for them, I’m glad they can have the chance to choose their own experience”. Then think pleasantly about the Toyota Prius you would like to buy--or whatever your choice. This will cause your own feelings about money to grow into something more and more pleasant. The more pleasant you feel about money, the more time it will want to spend with you.
The Secret Seminar reveals to us that thinking happy money thoughts isn’t a way to riches, its the way the riches. Feeling good about the money you have is the best way to ensure you will get more. Pretending you are living the lifestyle you would prefer is the best way to ensure that you will live it. There’s a part of you claiming it has a better handle on how money is earned. I can just hear it now “money’s hard to get, otherwise it wouldn’t be money and everyone wouldn’t want it.” Oh yeah? Ask that voice how much money it has attracted in life. You will find that it comes from the most impoverished part of your soul. That should be proof enough to you that its counsel is followed only by those who have something against having their own money in this world.
