A key aspect of making the Law of Attraction work is to actually believe your affirmations are true. So how do you believe something that is not physically actual ... such as having excess money?

The trick is to adopt the belief in stages. For example, rather than telling yourself, "I have more money than I need to cover my bills" or "I have all the money I need", you can start with "I am so excited when money flows into my life" or "It feels great when I have plenty of money to pay my bills."

As you state in your post, emotion is critical. So picture and exclaim strong emotion in your affirmation.

Another great way to build belief in attracting money is to put $100, $50, or even just $20 in your wallet or purse. Then go to your favorite stores and notice things you like and want, and say to yourself, "I could buy that, and I would love to have it." Then leave it there, and move on to the next item. This way you are speaking the truth (you really could buy it), and you will effectively spend the money 10, 20, or even 100 times. The more you do it, the better you feel and the more belief it creates.

This little exercise alone will create positive emotions about money you could have and spend, and it will attract more money into your life.

Try it; it's fun!
