The concept of like attracting like is an age old idea that has gotten recent attention lately due to the amazing

Law of Attraction. One of the most popular uses for correctly using the Law of Attraction is acquiring more money. Money is one of the largest resources on earth yet over seventy percent of people living on this planet live in poverty.

Why is this? Why do so many live on the verge of ruin and despair when there is so much to be had? The first step to understanding this phenomenon is to understand that what people see and believe about their reality is what their reality starts to become. In other words when they see poverty and despair they create that in their own lives.

People are so concerned with what they see around them they start to internalize these images. When that happens their own lives become filled with the drudge and sludge of the outside world. Make no mistake, there is heartaches and misery in the world but you have the power to change your own reality and make it a positive one.

Making money is about having opportunities presented to you. These opportunities come about through proper decision making, thinking the right thoughts and taking positive action. All these things roll together to create for you the kind of life and reality you wish to experience.

The Law of Attraction is all about raising your awareness to the kinds of opportunities that are around you everyday. When you buy a new pair of shoes you suddenly see the same type of shoe everywhere now. Those shoes did not just magically appear out of thin air, they were always there. But now because your awareness is at a higher level, you see them.

This is the same concept that can be applied to creating wealth. Once you raise your level of awareness you can give yourself the opportunity to achieve more. Personal growth is the most important thing you can develop from the start. This is the springboard that will launch you into success.

Once you work on yourself you can increase the amount of money you can make. Many people believe they have achieved all they can in life. Or they think they know enough about any particular subject and therefore do not need to keep learning. Do not fall into this trap. Believe that there is much more to learn and never stop trying to improve yourself.

There are many resources available with the Law of Attraction. Do not think about the financial resources like investment portfolios or stocks and bonds. These things are not where the real potential for wealth lies. Look beyond these mundane conveyances to the greater picture. The greatest potential for growth in all areas of your life is within yourself.
