Stop Treating Money Like an Unrequited Love

I got a pretty major download just as I was waking up one morning last week. An “Aha!” moment, if you will. My brain made a connection about money that it had never made before.

I realized that, all my life, I’ve been chasing money the same way I used to chase men. Busting my ass and making myself crazy, to try to earn love from a man who was never going to love me back. I’d shrink myself and play whatever role was necessary just to be tolerated by a man. I’d cling to men like they were a life preserver, forgetting that I can just float on the surface and let the current carry me along to where I need to go.

I’ve stopped chasing men and have been working on attracting one instead. It never occurred to me before that I need to do the same with money.

With both men and money, I need to quit chasing out of desperation and instead know that I am worthy simply by existing. I need to be myself, love myself, let my inner light radiate, be grateful for all I am and all I have, then let both men and money come to me.

I don’t believe that means I just sit on my ass and twiddle my thumbs while I wait. I think it requires that I live life to the best of my current abilities. Do things that fulfill me and bring me joy, like this blog, as well as learning new things, spending time out in nature, enjoying music, taking photos, laughing with my whole body, etc.

Being someone who lives a life that money and a man want to be part of. Together, we can fully live a life less confined.
