Want to Make More Money? Here’s How You Start

Let me ask you a question. Do you want to make more money? I know that sounds a little “salesy,” but let’s be honest—who doesn’t want to make more money?

About eight years ago, I found myself in a tough spot. I was sitting at home, going through the emotional toll of a recent divorce, feeling completely drained and stuck financially.

I didn’t have much money, and it was disheartening. I’d always believed that hard work alone would guarantee success and financial stability, and I thought I’d been doing everything right.

So why was I struggling so much to make ends meet? Then, I stumbled upon a course. But here’s the twist—it wasn’t a course on money management, investing, or building wealth traditionally.

Instead, it was about our emotional relationship with money. That course transformed the way I think about, approach, and feel about money. And let me tell you, it changed my life.

Fast-forward to today, and my reality is very different. I live in Dubai, and I travel the world. I feel both at ease and excited about my financial life.

This shift wasn’t from crunching numbers or finding a secret formula; it was from understanding my emotional connection with money.

Changing Your Emotional Relationship with Money

Here’s a concept the course taught me that really resonated: Think about money as a friend. Imagine you have a friend you’re genuinely excited to spend time with, but you’re not clingy or desperate for their attention.

When they come around, you enjoy the moment, and when they’re not around, you’re okay with that, too. That’s the healthy, easygoing relationship we’re aiming for.

Now imagine you have another friend with whom you’re constantly frustrated—someone you’re always chasing, always feeling anxious about when you’ll see them again.

The more you cling to this friend, the more they want to pull away. And that, in a nutshell, is how many of us feel about money: anxious, impatient, and even resentful.

Cultivating Excitement and Ease Around Money

The course taught me a simple yet powerful exercise: every night, spend just a few minutes cultivating feelings of excitement and ease around money.

For the first couple of minutes, imagine the thrill of more money flowing into your life. Picture it in your mind, not from a place of desperation but from genuine excitement.

Then, for the next couple of minutes, shift to feeling at ease—assure yourself that money is coming to you in a way that feels natural and effortless.

Practicing this mix of excitement and ease creates a welcoming environment for money to enter your life.

The Magic of an Open Emotional Channel

When you treat money like a cherished friend and genuinely look forward to it coming into your life and are at ease with its presence, amazing things start to happen.

Opportunities pop up, sometimes from unexpected places, and financial abundance begins to feel natural.

Final Thoughts

The journey to financial freedom isn’t just about earning more or spending less; it’s about reshaping how you feel about money.

Approach it with excitement, embrace it with ease, and treat it like a dear friend. When you do, you’ll find that money flows to you in ways that may surprise and delight you.

Good luck, and here’s to creating a life of ease, excitement, and abundance.
