When you use your muscles, you maintain them and build them up. When you don\u2019t use them, however, they shrink.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This is a reference most of us understand pretty well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">However, did you know that \u201cuse it or lose it\u201d also applies to abundance, finances and prosperity?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>A simple abundance-enhancing trick\u2026<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This is a lesser known trick to the Law of Attraction I stumbled upon several years ago. I started to notice that the more I used the resources I had, the more resources were attracted to me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">For instance, the more money I put into my business, the more money my business made.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The more money I spent on other people in the form of gifts and\/or assistance, the more gifts and assistance I received.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It was pretty interesting for me, because for my entire life I had scrimped and saved and never really managed to accumulate much in the way of prosperity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Spending more actually brought me substantial results. Obsessive (though well-intended) saving never really paid off significantly.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Why does abundance operate on \u201cuse it or lose it?\u201d<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The way I look at his phenomenon is as such:\u00a0<i>if you aren\u2019t using the resources the universe has bestowed upon you, why would the universe send you more?<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If I receive extra money and squirrel it all away, I\u2019m also sending a message that I consider myself to be at the same level of abundance as before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I have extra money, but I am still behaving in the \u201clack mentality\u201d I had prior to receiving the cash. Despite the evidence of my abundance, I am not acting any more abundant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Furthermore, if I have the mentality that I must save all of my extra pennies just to survive, my reality will continue to reflect that back to me. The money sits in my bank account untouched, and I cling to it out of fear-rather than a state of knowing my prosperity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So although a windfall of cash came in, no more will roll in behind it to match the fear I am projecting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Over time, I\u2019ve really came into resonance with the \u201cuse it or lose it\u201d mentality regarding abundance. Where I used to be afraid to spend my \u201chard earned\u201d money, now I circulate it back into the world freely. I know the more I put out, the more I get back and the easier it comes to me. I see this phenomenon time and again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So if you share my prior belief that spending was to be avoided at all costs, please do listen to this message. When it comes to your abundance, you have to use it or lose it. The resources you have at your disposal are there for you to use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">After all, if you aren\u2019t using the abundance you already have, why would you ever need more?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">XO, Andrea (<\/span><em><span class=\"s1\">Law of Attraction Educator)<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">But what about people who already \u201cspend too much?\u201d<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Now, of course, some people have an alternative relationship with money where they spend\u00a0<strong>more<\/strong>\u00a0than they have (not less). That isn\u2019t what I am talking about here today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Borrowing or spending past what you have sends a very different message than money hoarding. Most importantly, \u201cI don\u2019t have enough to cover what I want right now.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">I\u2019m not talking about running yourself into debt, or spending every last penny in your account. I\u2019m not telling you to empty your retirement account or your child\u2019s college fund. I\u2019m talking about using those extra financial blessings that come your way. They are always there as a wonderful opportunity for you to practice knowing your abundance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>About The Author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Andrea Schulman\u00a0is a former high school psychology teacher and the creator of &#8216;Raise Your Vibration Today.&#8217; She teaches people about the Law of Attraction and the power of positive thinking .
