If you could focus upon what you are wanting to do, for all of the other reasons, the money would flow more easily than when you focus upon it for the reason of money.

We think it would be nice if you could take money out of the equation, because “money” is a word that for most of you smacks of vibrational resistance. So if you could just avoid the concept, then you could avoid the resistance and you would allow more of the abundance that is natural.

Any time you focus on anything, you vibrate with it. And what we’ve noticed is that most people who focus upon the word “money” or the word “abundance” or the word “finances”, most of them are vibrationally lackful when they are focused there.

We tease that someday we think your Webster’s Dictionary will define “money” as “not enough”, because that is the usual feeling that we feel from most of you when you use the word. And so, if you are wanting to change that, what you are wanting to do is replace the word with a word that is less resistant in nature. Replace it with a word like “Energy” or make up a new word. Begin calling money “nachos” or something like that. “If I can gather enough nachos, I’ll go to the ball game this weekend.” Because usually there is not so much resistance. Make up some word that you have fun with. Some word that is fulfilling to you, you see. And as you are finding a new vibration that is less resistant, the money will flow to you.

Most of you are not short on wanting money, you are just tall on resisting it, and so, goosing up wanting only amplifies resistance. Sometimes we teach: “Well, just talk about what you’ll do with the money. Imagine spending it. Imagine all of things that you’ll do with it.” But if you’ve already developed quite a bit of resistance about money, that can be a quite an aggravating, annoying game, and most of you don’t stick with it very long.

Deliberately try to reduce your resistance around the word “money”, and one way of doing it is to recognize that everything is flowing to you on this Energy Stream. We’ve watched Jerry and Esther who are, and have been for many years, very comfortable with dollars. The dollars that flow to them are abundant and flow easily, and what Esther is beginning to notice is that there are many things that are of a wonderful nature that are happening in their life that don’t have anything to do with dollars.

The abundance flows in many more avenues than dollars. And so, if you could focus upon the gifts that the Universe gives you: When you say “abundance”, think about it in the abundance of health, the abundance of vitality, the abundance of clarity, the abundance of enthusiasm, the abundance of delicious people in your life, the abundance of loving letters in your life. The abundance of free- flowing traffic in your life. The abundance of wonderful experiences in your life… As you start thinking in terms of this abundance that doesn’t have anything to do with dollars — the abundance relative to the dollars starts flowing, too.

Most people think that good flows to them only through the avenue of dollars. Someone will say, “Well, she lives a very good life,” and someone else will say, “Well, of course she does, she’s rich.” as if the answer to a good life is just having more money. And we say, the answer to a good life is in not resisting a good life, because a good life is natural to you. It’s your legacy. It is your inheritance. It is flowing to all of you.

And so, you just have to play those mind games with yourself, getting yourself more and more in the place of allowing the extreme abundance that is natural to you, so that you start rendezvousing with more of the good things.
