When we strive to become rich through the use of spiritual principles and laws that apply universally, then we can relax in the knowledge that we have attracted our wealth in a higher way and so we feel less vulnerable to the idea of losing it or it never being enough. When we align our thoughts with the mind of our soul, they empower us to continue to manifest money in the name of beauty, truth and real power.

Napoleon Hill speaks of several principles that contribute to ideal thoughts in growing rich and these principles are much the same in contributing to beautiful thoughts. They are:

1. Desire ? This is where it all begins, with a burning desire to achieve something greater than your current view of yourself. It is important to align your desires and goals with divine will, or the will of God, because when you do so you will have the strength to surmount all obstacles. All you need do to align with Divine Will is to set the intention to do so and the feel the power of it working in your life.

2. Faith ? It is essential to have faith in ourselves and that which we desire to manifest. Faith, when combined with feelings and emotions that accompany beautiful thoughts, begins instantly to translate itself into its physical form. The easiest way to 'get' faith, if you will, is to create powerful affirmations and repeat them continually until you feel that you're subconscious mind is empowered by them in complete belief.

3. Imagination ? More specifically creative imagination. This is where the magic happens. This is where you are able to receive the hunches, inspiration and guidance to the fulfillment of your desires. This is where new ideas are literally handed over to us. This is where we are able to 'tune in' to the minds of others, telepathically. This is where we experience synchronicity and serendipidity and opportunities magically present themselves. When the conscious mind is stimulated through the emotions of strong desire, the imagination is able to automatically work for us. And only to the degree that we use this part of our beautiful mind will creativity become more precise, refined and more detailed on our behalf.

4. Intuition ? The great achievers of all time have succeeded through the use of their sixth sense, or intuition. As stated above, this is directly linked to your creative imagination and this is where you receive certain hunches, ideas, inspiration, and guidance from the higher intelligence of the universe. It is more crucial to the attainment of wealth then has been given credit for in previous history. But that is changing and it is becoming known as one of our most important senses to nurture and develop. The way that we can easily and effectively do this is through some form of meditative practice, even if it only for five minutes per day. One other thing that you can do is place your hand over your heart and ask yourself a question. Take a deep breath and slowly exhale. Then simply allow the answer to come to you through your heart. Write it down and keep track of them as it will help you to become more confident in that still, small voice of the soul.

One of my favorite teachers is Sonia Choquette and Sonia says that "We are all trust fund babies of the universe. All we have to do is decide how much we want and then claim it." How much do you think you're worth? There is no limit to what is available except by your own choosing. Choose the maximum that your creative imagination can conceive of having, and then, times it by ten. Think Big and you'll get Big. I wish you a beautiful and magical journey on your road to riches.
