6 Easy Ways to Get Rid of Your Money Blocks

how to release money blocks

Have you ever heard the saying “The rich get richer and the poor get poorer”? (said by President William Henry Harrison – he’s #9) Everyone has. There’s a reason most lottery winners lose all their winnings, and usually more while millionaires who sometimes lose it all, make it back bigger and better in the end.

Did they win big in the genetics department?Are these people “lucky”?

There are people who attract opportunities, big ideas, abundance, the prospects and clients they want while…

There are people who tend to attract problems, scarcity, lack of creativity or ideas, the wrong kind of clients and almost no prospects.

Now I do NOT subscribe to the version of Law of Attraction that states “everything in your life that’s wrong is your fault” – the blaming / judgmental version of this is not what I’m talking about (episode on this coming up soon!)

However, when you use the Law of Attraction for good in every way, it can transform your life in every way… including in the money department.

In today’s episode, I give 6 easy (and actually fun if you decide to enjoy them) ways to bring more feelings of Abundance into your life – which always attracts more of the good stuff you want… including ideas, opportunities, better prospects, better clients and more of those little green pieces of paper.

Tip #1Take care of the money you already have. Appreciate it and be a good caretaker. Why the heck would the Universe bring you more of what you already DON’T take care of…?

Tip #2Do something out of the ordinary that makes you feel abundant. During the time of my life many years ago when I was getting divorced, having panic attacks, I had to get a job and was worrying about money, I decided to start visiting my neighbor once a week. He was a homebound older gentleman whose wife and only son had died. He was on antidepressants and never left the house.

I started making him brownies and taking my dog for visits. I can’t explain how this shifted my entire world. Mr. Albrecht who has since passed away, will never know how much he did to transform my perspective. (Well, I actually think he does know, but let’s not get that spiritual…)

It felt incredible to lift his spirits and it felt so good to realize exactly how much I had to be grateful for, even though my life was nowhere near where I wanted it to be at the time.

Tip #3 The Abundance Wheel – This is an exercise / process I created that always helps me to shift to feelings of abundance – which is what it’s all about.

When you can create massive feelings of abundance, gratitude and appreciation for what you already have – the Universe / God /Source will bring more things into your life that give you more of those feelings.

I described this process in the episode.  Click here to download the pdf so you can use this to create feelings of abundance now.

Tip #4 – This one is really fun! Make sure to listen to the episode to get it… (I know, I know YES, I am trying to get you to listen because it’s good stuff – you can just speed up to 4:45 if you’re really in a hurry)

Tip #5 – Do not engage in Comparison. This is a biggie. No, this is a HUG-IE. This is one of the big things that brings feelings of scarcity and lack more than any other thing. And, it’s so easy to do… everyone does it. I’ve done it. I sometimes fall back into it. Become radical in your non-comparison to others.

This doesn’t mean to not aspire to what people you admire are doing. This means not to feel envy, jealousy and come down with a chronic case of comparisionitis maximus. What does the doctor (in this case, that would be me.) prescribe?

Take the “suma, no quita” oath.

This is a saying my Abuelita (grandmother) taught us that means when you see someone with something in their life that you would like to experience (a relationship, health, money), bless them and celebrate with them. Since we are made up of the same energy, we are one. If it’s possible for them, it’s possible for you.

Tip #6 – Forgive. In the episode, I talk about a few ways of forgiving the how and why you have bad feelings around money. This one may be HUGER (yes I really do make up words when I speak) than #5.

I hope this episode inspires you to tackle the things that might be making you feel scarcity or lack, so you can cultivate those feelings of abundance and security, which will just bring you more of the same.

    I just followed your directions to The Circle of Abundance. I felt pretty good earlier this morning and after doing this exercise I am happily surprised about the ABUNDANCE OF ABUNDANCE I have in my life. Many of these things I took for granted.

      Love this Mary Ann! It’s so incredibly interesting… I recorded this show yesterday (actually re-did it because I was inspired to add few more tips than the original episode) and yesterday, I got a totally unexpected check for $2,047 – This stuff works if you actually do it and it’s important to celebrate the “Evidence” (like that check) and increase your feelings of abundance in that celebration.

    I am taking the “Suma, no Quitta” oath. I love that enlightened way of thinking. “If is possible for them, it is possible for ME”.

    • Maritza Parra on November 21, 2014 at 9:41 am

      I might have to make an image for that oath – my Abuelita would love that!

    I was in the Comparison mindset for months. My focus was totally on making a certain amount of money in a specific time frame. I think it’s healthy to set a date, but not compare what you should be making to others within that date. I had huge aspirations and set myself up for disappointment. I didn’t see the results that others had seen, so I felt like a loser. When I stopped thinking about what others made, and just focused on making my first dollar, I shifted! It went from feeling bad about not making enough, to feeling good to be able make any income, then work on multiplying what I made over and over again (creating proof of concept first, instead of proof that I could imitate someone else).

    I resonated with much of what you said here. Thanks for this episode. 🙂

      Love your share Paul… especially “instead of proof that I could imitate someone else” – there’s nothing more powerful than being yourself and finding the path to monetization that works for you! I’m loving seeing you do it and I know you’ll help many with your content!

    Thank-you Maritza. I totally agree with you about volunteering. I recently headed a fundraiser for The Patrick Dempsey Center for Cancer. It certainly does make you feel better getting your mind on helping others. I also did think about getting something free. That day I did get a free coffee that day. You are totally right on cultivating abundance!

    • Maritza Parra on October 22, 2015 at 9:52 am

      Maureen, that is a great story! And I LOVE that you celebrated something small, because it’s in that celebration that more things to celebrate will come, big, medium and small!

    Love this episode, Maritza! Especially “Do something out of the ordinary that makes you feel abundant.

    Our world is so beautiful, and we’re lucky to live in such an amazing world.Waking up today is already a gift. 🙂

    Thanks for the tips and reminders

    • Maritza Parra on October 22, 2015 at 9:52 am

      Justin, you are so spot on… “Waking up today is already a gift.” Love it!

  6. Anthony Tran on November 25, 2014 at 12:57 pm

    Great episode Maritza! I always enjoy learning about the “Law of Attraction” There have been so many situations in my life where feeling abundant has helped bring more gifts into my life. I also agree that there is definitely a mindshift that needs to happen in order for you to improve your life.

    • Maritza Parra on October 22, 2015 at 9:53 am

      Yes a big mindset shift and remembering that it’s the “Law of AttrACTION” Action is definitely required!

  7. […] When you’re operating in this way, appreciation makes you do things, not for what you’ll get out of it, but to bring more energy of love to the world. Then, when you least expect it, that same energy will return to you! The same happens with the energy of value exchange (also known as money). […]
