Sometimes I need a reminder like this and I read this before meditation. Particularly in rough financial times.
This can be more than wishful thinking or repeating a positive affirmation. When meditating to this one I do not allow my mind to be quiet. Instead, I think about how fortunate I am when compared to many others. I think about how much better off I am now when compared to 10 years ago and 20 years ago. I let me mind drift and think of new ways for residual income so that I can earn more money while I sleep. I am also reminded that I already earn money while I sleep with renters, web hosting, affiliate marketing, Google AdSense, and more.
This is definitely not a mediation for a quiet mind, but more of a brainstorming session for at least twenty minutes. After twenty minutes when you come up with good ideas and realize that things are not as bad as they seemed at the beginning of the meditation then quiet your mind for another twenty minutes or more to let the universe share their ideas with you. If you put out to the universe how can I serve then the universe will respond with how can I serve you?
Wealth does not have to mean money. You can be wealthy in so many other ways. You can be more wealthy than an unhappy millionaire.
