According to Universal Laws, we all have the same amount of money. That doesn’t mean that we’ve all manifested that in our bank accounts. It does mean that we could though, and anybody can be a millionaire. But most won’t become millionaires in this lifetime. There’s no judgment, it’s just that the vast majority of people don’t have sufficient self-belief to manifest and take the action required to become a millionaire.

Everyone has different limitations to overcome, different barriers to that level of success. And there’s much you can do to tip the scales in your favor. Here are 5 tips to help you cultivate your millionaire mindset. 1. You Can Quantum Leap. When I first became a coach, I created over 6-figures in 7 months. I then joined a high-ticket mastermind group. My goal was to earn more than I did as a lawyer in 4 years. When I look back on that, I realize how limiting those thoughts were. Why couldn't I earn more than I did as a lawyer in 1 or 2 years? I could, I just didn’t understand what I do now about Universal Law, eliminating limiting beliefs and cultivating self-belief. As a result, it took me an extra 2 years to achieve that milestone. Now I realize that you can absolutely QuantumLeap to any amount of income you want. It doesn’t have to be incremental growth. Don’t let anybody else tell you differently.

2. Give Yourself Permission Many of my clients are afraid of who they'll become if they became millionaires. Money just enhances who you already are. It magnifies your personality. So if you act like a jerk now, you’ll become more of a jerk. If you are deeply spiritual or in service to others now, you become more focused on uplifting others. You can be rich and generous, contributing to causes you care deeply about. You can be wealthy and environmentally friendly.

You can be rich and down to earth. You can be wealthy and very spiritual. You can be rich and fulfilled.

Money is just a tool.

Is a knife positive or negative? In the hands of a chef, it’s positive. In the hands of a murder, not so much! It’s the same knife, the difference is what it’s being used for and the intent behind it. Same goes for money. 3. Just Take Action From Your Millionaire Filter If you think about where you are now in your business and the problems you had 1-2 years ago, they'd be a piece of cake for you to solve now. Why? Because you've raised your level of awareness and have a different perspective now. So hold the perspective of what you’d do if you already had a million dollars in your bank account. Would you order the extra guacamole? Of course, you would! Would you live a different lifestyle? Of course, you would!

You may be saying, “but Alaina, I can’t afford those things now.” Part of the reason you can’t afford them now is because you’re living like you can’t afford them now. From a lack and scarcity mindset. Reframe your thinking so you’re taking action from the filter of already being a millionaire. How would a millionaire act? What action would you take next?

Take action towards that goal from that filter every day. It’s okay if you're not there yet. Start becoming that person now. 4. You Don’t Have to Look a Certain Way I had this vision that the more money I made that I would look like a completely different person. I’d live in a super fancy house. Wear fancy clothes all the time. Always look put together. Generally, I’d live a very fancy life.

But I don’t really care about fancy clothes. I’m just as comfortable in a pair of leggings or jeans. I often go out without makeup or my hair done. I live a casual kind of lifestyle. This was true when I was making bank as a lawyer too. I cared far more about experiences than I did about material things.

Because I had an idea about how different my life SHOULD look like, it was a barrier getting in the way of where I wanted to go. 5. You Don’t Need to Change Your Personality or Hang Out With Other High Net Worth Individuals What stories do you have about being a millionaire? Do you feel like you have to do more personal development work before you deserve it? Do you think you have to be a different person or hang out with other millionaires and highly successful people to fit in? Get busy clearing your stories about millionaires. Particularly around how society and the media portray millionaires. Millionaires and highly successful people are often depicted as being greedy, manipulative, corrupt, bad people who don’t care about others, etc. Religion incorrectly teaches people that money is the root of all evil. My clients need to clear so much of this old programming to step into their next level of income. There’s often a values conflict. They want to be good people and make a difference in the world.They don’t want to be evil.

It’s really important to clear your story around all of this and allow yourself to be wealthy. You don’t need to do anything differently

. You don’t need to change who you are. You’ll find the more authentic you are, the more magnetic you are to money. Just be more YOU.

The most important thing is to be consistently aware of your thoughts and feelings and eliminate the old patterns and limiting beliefs. It’s your time! You're ready to level up!
