CHAPTER 30

MONEY

 

Back to the Table of Contents

Question: You must be rich to be having all the experiences you talk about – sailing, traveling around Europe, scuba diving and stuff. How do you make money?

Answer: As I write these words, I have exactly $20 to my name, total assets. I don’t think that qualifies for “rich.” But I’ve already said I never worry about money at all, which is one of the reasons I can give this book away for free on the Internet.

It’s more than that, really. It’s that I have an unlimited supply of money to have whatever holographic experience comes up for me in each moment; and so do you, although you don’t realize it yet.

But I don’t “make money.” No one makes money. We only think we do. That’s part of the illusion inside the movie theater.

I realize money is one of the biggest issues for most people. They can’t get enough of it; they can’t keep what they’ve got; and they have tried everything to change that situation with very little success.

Worse than that, actually, they have been promised there is a “secret” to “attracting” money; but they follow the steps religiously and it doesn’t work. So they blame themselves for not doing the “magic” just right. As one student told me, “I’ve tried to use The Secret and the ‘Law of Attraction’ and other self-help techniques to manifest money, but they didn’t work. I’m still broke, so there must be something wrong with me, or I must be doing something wrong.”

Here’s the real secret: The problem is not the person – not you; it’s the “magic” that doesn’t work most of the time for most people. It’s that we have developed this false knowledge about money and where it comes from while inside the movie theater, and it’s time to find out how money really works in a holographic universe.

As I was doing my Holographic Universe workshops in Europe, I started collecting different beliefs the participants had about money. What follows is a list of the major ones. Which ones do you think are true or false for you?

 

~ I have to earn money

~ I have to work for money

~ I can’t afford everything I want

~ There’s a limited supply of money available to me

~ Every time I spend money, my supply of money decreases

~ Nothing I really want is free

~ If I want more money, I have to work harder, or smarter, or deliver more value

~ I’ve got to have a plan to make money, invest it wisely, and build wealth over time

~ If I have money, I have to protect it or I could lose it

~ I have to be “responsible” with my money

~ I must be fully, totally, and truly committed to making money

~ There’s never enough money

~ There’s something “dirty” about money and those who have a lot of it

~ Money is the root of all evil

~ The rich get richer and the poor get poorer

~ More money is better

~ Money doesn’t grow on trees

~ Some have the “gift” of making money and others don’t

~ Money doesn’t come easy

~ You can’t have money and be spiritual

~ Money comes from “out there,” and you have to go “out there” to get it and bring it “in here” to you

 

So, how many of these beliefs did you think were True? All of them? Half of them? A few of them?

My favorite on this list is “money doesn’t grow on trees.” I used to hear that a lot when I was young; and it always puzzled me, because…. Yes, it does grow on trees. Money is made of paper, and paper is made from trees! So that one is False.

Would it surprise you to know none of the list above is True? Not one – not in a holographic universe. They are all beliefs people have about money, “stories” they make up to explain why they think they don’t have enough money, or can’t make more money, or in many ways feel like they are a victim of the “money game.” Repeat: All of these beliefs are false in a holographic universe, which should be expected since they were all formed while inside the movie theater.

Let’s take a closer look at why they’re all false….

Remember that consciousness creates everything from The Field. Your Infinite I is consciousness; therefore, your Infinite I is creating everything you experience in your holographic universe as the Player, down to the smallest detail.
