[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #6 ~ Exactly Why Lottery Winners Go Broke

If you had the choice between a deposit of $5 million into your bank account or a change in your belief system to include the knowing that you can have whatever amount of money you want, which would you choose?

Most people would choose the $5 million, but you would be wise to pick the latter because, if that money were put into your account and you didn’t change your underlying beliefs, you’d be back to where you are today pretty quickly.

In fact, the majority of lottery winners end up broke several years later.

That’s because the subconscious mind, which includes the belief system, works like a thermostat.

Where Is Your Thermostat Set?

If you set a thermostat at 72 degrees and the temperature drops below that, the heat will come on to bring the temperature back to 72. If it gets hotter than that, the air conditioner will kick on to bring the room back to its set point.

Similarly, if you were programmed to struggle financially, like many of us were, and you’re thrust into sudden wealth, your subconscious mind will kick up a fuss in order to bring you back to where you’re “supposed” to be.

We see this all of the time in our culture. People increase their income and, all of a sudden, their life goes to hell in a handbasket. If they don’t understand what’s happening, most will conclude that success is “too hard” or it’s not the “right time,” and they’ll revert to where they were.

Shift Your Set Point

Because most of your beliefs were programmed before age seven and you may not even be aware of what they are, changing your set point around money requires diligence. You have to reject any ideas that reinforce lack and nurture faith in abundance.

Two simple ways to do that is to stop using coupons and waiting for sales. If you want something now, and you have the money for it, buy it. Say to yourself, “I deserve to be paid full price for what I do, so I’m going to pay somebody else full price as well.”

Also, reject any notion that money is bad.

Many of us were taught that money is suspect, yet hard work is good. So we’re working hard for something bad. That actually puts us in a conflicted place, as though we have one foot on the gas pedal and the other on the brake.

Is it any wonder that people find financial success difficult ~ and exhausting?

The truth is, as I’ve said, that money was an expansive idea that was given to us by the Universe to help us evolve as a species. We couldn’t have accomplished all that we have without it.

If you can really absorb that idea and change how you think about and deal with money everyday, your beliefs will shift.

You will push up the set point on your money thermostat.

You can create that $5 million and keep it, because you will know it’s yours.

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #5 ~ Why Do You Need What You Need?

I told you last time that bringing in “your need” consistently is the key to getting what you want.

Your need is the amount to the penny that it takes to pay your bills each month. So, it’s your rent or mortgage, food, clothes, current business expenses, health insurance, monthly debt payment, and so on.

But it's also more than that.

Your need is your reality.

It’s a snapshot of where you are, and it offers unparalleled opportunity for insight and freedom.

What's the Story in that Snapshot?

To understand what your need is telling you, begin by calculating it. It's easy. Start with your accounting software or just pull out your check book, get a calculator, and add up the total of your bills. If your expenses vary drastically from month to month, just average the past several months.

After you have tallied your need, I want you to identify why you need that amount.

In other words, why do you have those particular bills?

You need what you need for a reason. You created the situation or circumstances in your life that you need that money for.

Chances are that situation is not a new story in your life. It’s a recurring story and may be a recurring story in your family as well.

For example, let’s say your need of $7,232.13 includes a $5,000 monthly mortgage payment and you and your spouse only bring in $6,000 a month. Let’s also say that you didn’t want to buy this house. You knew it was too expensive, but your spouse insisted, lied on your mortgage application to get it, and now you’re struggling every month.

You now have the opportunity to change that story forever. How? By taking responsibility for it.

Take Responsibility for Your Need

If you blame your spouse for buying the house, not only are you not seeing the situation clearly, but you’re powerless to change it.

However, when you take responsibility for the purchase, you may realize that you regularly allow your spouse’s judgment to override your own, and then retaliate with resentment and anger. That way, you get to be right and the victim. You may also recognize that lack, struggle, power plays and dishonesty were prevalent in your childhood as well.

This is great news, because now that you have acknowledged all of that and taken responsibility for creating it, you are empowered to change the situation.

You stand up to your spouse and begin to create a new story that can bring you prosperity, fulfilling relationships and growth.

And it all began with a simple calculation. So pull out your check register, and get started.

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #4 ~ Meeting Your Need Brings You What You Truly Want

If you want to bring in a lot more money, and you’re not doing it, you’re most certainly fighting a belief system you may not even realize you have.

You may intellectually understand what I said last time ~ if you desire the money, the opportunity to bring in that money is around you ~ but you don’t actually believe it.

Beliefs are reflected in and generate your results. In order to change your results, you have to change your beliefs. The best way to do that is to give yourself a new experience. When you give yourself a new experience, your subconscious has to accept it. When it does that, a new belief is born. That new belief then creates a new reality. It’s a beautiful upward spiral.

To activate that upward spiral in your life, start bringing in your need consistently every month.

Your need is what you require to the penny to pay your bills, and, if you’re not already doing so, bringing it in consistently is the surest and quickest way to get what you want.

The Power of Bringing in Your Need

For example, let’s say you want to make $25,000 a month, you need $7,026.35 a month, but you’re only making $3,500. If you aim for the $25,000 first, you’re not likely to make it. If your belief system won’t even let you have what you need, it’s not going to let you have what you want.

In other words, you won’t really believe you can make $25,000 a month. If you don’t believe it, you won’t do it.

However, if your goal is $7,026.35 ~ which is a grounded figure that’s close to where you are ~ and you start bringing it in consistently, you’ve created a new belief that you can take care of your needs. You also feel flush with pride and confidence, saying, Wow, I doubled my income, look at that!

From that place of greater faith in yourself and the universe, it can be a rapid ascent to the $25,000 you want.

Wants Often Originate from Lack

Another reason to aim for your need first is so that you clean up your belief system and stop creating your wants from fear.

For example, people will say that they want to make a large sum like $1 million or $10 million.

When asked why they want that sum, it’s often because they want to avoid pain and stress. They’ve struggled for so long around money, they wish they could just win the damn lottery and not have to deal with it anymore.

That want originates from an energetic place of lack. And because we get what we’re energetically equal to, instead of bringing in an opportunity to earn $1million, they will actually create situations that take away what they have.

If, instead, you focus first on what you need, and you change your belief system, building faith in abundance, your wants will originate from there.

They will be an expression of your highest self. And as you fufill them, you’ll experience a life of prosperity, purpose and joy.

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #3 ~ The Magic Box at Your Command

Whenever we have money problems, we tend to worry, struggle, tighten the purse strings and engage in other types of lack-inspired thinking and behaviors that actually push money away.

Not only does a mindset of lack push money away, but it also blocks ideas that would bring money in. It’s as though you have a little man in your head with a flyswatter, flicking away those pesky, expansive ideas from the Universe that don’t match what he believes.

Now imagine that you have a little magic box in your home that produces whatever you want, whenever you want it. Imagine how that would change how you think and feel.

Fear, worry and insecurity would fade, because you’d know that you could go to your magic box whenever you wanted something.

Your Magic Box

The truth is you have such a box. You can have any amount of money you want, whenever you want it.

The Law of Polarity states that if you have a need or a desire, the way to fulfill that desire has to exist in your life as well. You just have to reach out and grab it.

The money that you want, the thing you desire, is as close as your own breath. It doesn’t require great amounts of learning or strategy.

Let’s say you earn $100,000 a year, and you want to earn $10 million.

To earn that $10 million, you will definitely need a different way of making money than you have now, but the first step to that new way is in your life right now. And it may not take as long as you think to reach $10 million.

It will require a mental shift. You will have to put your faith in the Law of Polarity, and send the man with the flyswatter packing.

Then, brilliant money-making ideas will actually get through to you. You’ll take action on them and give yourself a new experience. Let’s be modest and say you double your income. Your subconscious won’t be able to deny that you doubled your income, and it will form a new belief that you can do that.

Armed with this new belief, you can ascend even faster, tripling, quintupling or increasing your income even more. My clients and students make massive leaps all the time.

That can begin for you today with your faith that life can be better, that the Law of Polarity is true.

So imagine that magic box in your home, apply what you learn in this series, and just watch what you can do!

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #2 ~ How to Create Your Prosperous Life


I told you in my last article that my goal with this series is for you to experience true financial freedom, which means that you can create any amount of money whenever you want it.

Making money is not difficult once you absorb certain concepts and put them into practice. Central among these is that money is an effect.

Money is an Effect

Money follows the Law of Cause and Effect, which states that every action has a reaction. Every cause has an effect, and every effect has a cause.

Money (or the lack of it) in your life is an effect that you cause to happen. It's a direct result of what you're doing or not doing.

A lack of money isn't caused by the economy or your insufficient education or the class in which you were raised.

Those are all excuses we tell ourselves so that we don't have to take actions that might expose us, make us look foolish or upset someone's idea of who we should be.

They're excuses that keep us broke and not living our purpose.

YOU are the Cause

The good news is that once you know that you are the cause of the money in your life, you can feel your tremendous power to bring in as much of it as you choose.

If you want money for something, you'll generate it. You'll make that sales call without worrying about whether it's bothering someone. You'll raise your rates. You'll go out on your own or tell your spouse what you really want.

You'll be like the 18-year-old boyfriend of my oldest daughter. I shared the concepts in this series with him, and he immediately applied them and started to create a million-dollar business.

Was he a smart kid? Yes, but no smarter than any other kid out there. He had a good work ethic, and he did what I told him to do.

Apply This!

That's the key. You have to apply what I'm telling you. You can't just read this and think, That sounds good.

You have to take back your power and embrace that you are the only cause of the money in your life, and then take the risk. Do the things that bring in money. Command what you're worth.

Once you apply this and experience the result, you will forever change any subconscious belief that says you can't have what you want.

Instead, you will know that you can.

And then you'll be amazed at the prosperous life you create!

[Fast Cash Formula Series] Article #1 ~ Financial Freedom is Within Your Grasp


Over the next few months, I'm going to give you step-by-step ways to bring fast cash into your business and life. Regardless of where you are in your career, the steps and principles can help you move to the next level.

My ultimate goal is that you experience financial freedom.

What Is Financial Freedom?

Financial freedom is not about how much money you have in the bank. It's an awareness of being able to  create whatever amount of money you need whenever you need it. When you're financially free, if you need money to pay the bills, buy a new car, a house, send your kids to college or go on vacation, you know how to generate the money right away.

Financial freedom also means that if you suddenly lost everything, you'd easily be able to go out and build your wealth again.

As I've said before, the great thing about awareness is you never lose it. So, once you become aware of how to be financially free, you will never go back.

You will never again feel compelled to make decisions from a place of fear. For example, you won't save for retirement because you're afraid of being homeless when you're old. Instead, you'll have a wealth account that grows, enabling you to do more, have more and give more. That's a much more empowered place from which to save.

To get to that place, you must change your attitude about money. I'll talk about this more in a future article, but most of us have been indoctrinated to think of money as a necessary evil, to believe that it is suspect at best, when the truth is that money is a miracle.

Money Is a Miracle

By that I mean money is an idea from Spirit to help us evolve as a people.

The idea of money has allowed us to grow beyond the constraints associated with barter. We couldn't have accomplished all that we've accomplished as a society without money. And at our current level of development, it's an absolute necessity.

We're not supposed to worship money but neither are we supposed to vilify it. We're supposed to use it to help us fulfill our purpose ~ it's a tool, simple as that.

We also weren't meant to trade our life for money and, therefore, be enslaved by it. We're supposed to master it, use it to pursue our dreams.

That's what this series is all about ~ showing you how to master money and become financially free.

When you become aware that you can bring in whatever amount of money you choose, you are free, and you can do, be or have anything you want.
