One Thing You're Doing Today That's Keeping You Broke

Merry Christmas this week! I love the holiday season–the lights, the music, the presents and parties. This is such a great time of year. I give myself permission to eat whatever I want, as much as I want and live it up so much that I can’t wait for my resolution to kick in so I can get off sugar. Sure, it’s healthier to just use moderation all year, but what’s the fun of that? Judge me all you want! It’s how I roll. In fact, I’m indulging in mint chips even as I write this blog…but I digress.

I’d be willing to bet that the one thing you’re doing that’s keeping you broke is something so second nature you don’t even realize you’re doing it. You’re looking at the visible, seemingly limited supply (ahem, bank account) and feeling bad about it. Or maybe you’re in denial, figuring you’ll worry about it after the holidays. But it’s still a cloud hovering right over your head. Am I right? Of course I’m right–I’ve done the exact same thing!

Wallace Wattles teaches that a man’s way of doing things is the direct result of the way he thinks about things. He advises, “Never look at the visible supply; look always at the limitless riches in Formless Substance and KNOW that they are coming to you as fast as you can receive and use them. Nobody, by cornering the visible supply, can prevent you from getting what is yours.”

When you look at your bank statement, KNOW that the money you need will come, if you keep your thoughts grounded in faith and purpose, and don’t allow doubt or fear to rob you of your peace. Feel grateful for all the good that’s going on in your life today, and then feel grateful for all of the wonderful things that are definitely on their way to you. Believe that they’re coming, act with inspiration, and that internal shift you’re holding will eventually cause an external shift around you. Just hold on. It’s coming!

  1. After reading this post I really feel inspiried. From reading your newletters and talking to brifely I come to the conclusion that I do need to hold on and have faith in my abilities but it can be distracting when doing so especially with a lot of outside forces around.

  2. I loved this post, Allyson (I really like a lot of your posts altuacly.) My daughter will soon be turning 14. She sounds much like your daughter not extremely outgoing and she has a few friends. She does not enjoy shopping with others. She loves to be at home with family on the weekends she’s not an overly adventurous girl. Her taste in clothes are not the same as mine. She and I are different in many ways altuacly, but we still do have our similarities. I have strived (and maybe I’m not really good at it, but I try) to see’ my kids to really see’ them for who they are, paying attention to their likes, dislikes, what makes them uncomfortable, what delights them, etc.I was never seen’ growing up (I had an abusive mother.) I truly thought that when I had kids of my own that I would finally understand why my mother treated me the way she did which I thought would result in having a profound respect for my mother. Well, the opposite happened. A long story short is that I swore I would never (purposely) hinder who’ my kids are. I decided that I was going to allow them to have opinions (expressed respectfully), to have a right to question us when they didn’t understand rules and regulations. Above all, I swore that I would make every attempt at not hindering who my children were born to be and encourage all their good qualities. I parent my kids way different than how I was parented and its quite a learning curve. I have found, in my experience as a mother, that by seeing’ your kids and accepting them as they are altuacly makes parenting easier less fight and struggle. It really is a blessing to be able to see’ ones children.A line from the movie, Avatar, comes to mind I see you. meaning that I see who you are.’ Love it!
