How Can My Husband And I Overcome Financial Difficulty?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Cristiana.

Cristiana: Hello, Bob, Cynthia, and The Council. I would appreciate your thoughts and guidance on how to overcome the financial difficulty me my husband and I are currently going through. What is the best course of action for me to take? I do have many business ideas, but I lack the resources, confidence, and motivation to move on with them. Also, there is a lot of indecision at play.

Council: Well #1, we see here the indecision always plays a big part when you’re trying to create something. And if you feel you don’t have the motivation to do this, then there is something lacking in whatever you think you should be doing.

It is always good when you are trying to create something in your life, whether it’s for money value, or a relationship, there should be a sense of joy and excitement that this is what you are going to create. When there’s so much doubt in the way, it will never happen.

It’s all there for you, but first, you need to make a decision. What idea sounds the best? Which one do you think would be the easiest to get started on? And so, you would play with it that way, and you would imagine how it would happen. And all the while that you’re doing this, what does it feel like? If there’s a sense of, “Oh, I don’t know if I could do this,” and, “Am I wasting my time trying to create that?” You will not create it.

So find something where the idea has you excited, that there is something you just love about it, and how you would make it grow and change, and how it would bring so much more into your life. So we say – and it is with anything you try to create – there must be joy. Not that you’re doing it like, “Maybe it will work, or “You have to do something, so let me try this.” Look for the sense of joy.

In the meantime, if you are not sure, then go around and play with different ideas. Maybe you can volunteer somewhere, or read up about it, or watch a movie about it, or research what it is. But always look for that feeling of excitement.

Cristiana: Which path will bring me the most success and fulfillment?

Council: The one you find the happy feeling with.

Cristiana: Many thanks and deep gratitude to you all.

Council: We would like to say here that we don’t have the magic bullet to step into your life and tell you that you need to do this. This is what’s going to work for you. We can only tell you to make a decision, and how to get there, and how to create it. And so the work is yours.

Maybe the ideas you have are not really what you want. Keep searching, but when you search, have that feeling of excitement. It’s coming. I’m finding my way to what is finally going to work for me and make me feel good. That’s how you begin.

And so we send you love, and all the joy that you can find in your lives. Create, create, create.

What Can I Do About My Financial Difficulties?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Miya, who says she’s in a repeated cycle of financial difficulties. She doesn’t like being around negative energies, but most of jobs that would accept her are with the public where she has to deal with different types of people and by the end of the day she feels drained.

The Council says they see a lot of negative thoughts on Miya’s part which are bringing in negative experiences, affecting her finances, affecting where she works, and affecting the people she surrounds herself with. You think you’re being positive, but there’s just as many negative thoughts and they’re counterbalancing each other.

The Council feels Miya senses negative energy from many people and they ask why she focuses on this? Do you look at people you feel have negative energy and realize these people are spiritual beings? Do you realize they’re here trying to learn their lessons and go through obstacles, joys, and experiences? Can you send these people positive energy? Can you understand what they’re going through?

The Council says Miya needs to be around people and truly focus on the good in them. You need to tell yourself to reach out to their spirit. This will make you change how you see people. This will raise your vibration. When this is done the right kind of work will come to you. People that you like to be around will appear in your life. It’s about your thoughts and your beliefs and how they will give you a better perspective on what’s going on.

Miya says she lives with relatives who don’t believe as much in spirituality as she does. The Council says you came into this lifetime to bring love. Love is allowing everyone to be who they are. Allow your family to be who they are. They don’t have to have the same energy as you. They don’t have to have the same beliefs as you. Your lesson is to send these people love the way you see them.

Miya says she’s in her late 20s with a bachelor’s degree in audio and still lives with her parents. The Council asks if you’re looking for the kind of work that your degree will help you get. If you feel you have to work at something you don’t like, volunteer somewhere you can use your audio skills. This should give you joy and begin to change your energy. You have to bring in some joy.

Miya says my family is barely getting by. We’re all crowded in a small home in a disturbing neighborhood. I still find ways to be happy, but happiness doesn’t pay the bills. The Council says what will help pay the bills is to look for things about your family that you like and be grateful you have it. This begins to change your vibration and bring in different situations. Your main purpose in this lifetime was to go into negative situations and look for the good in them. As you find the good these things will begin to change.

Miya says she prays for a financial change and tries to manifest a miracle. This job that’s coming into my life is going to be okay, but my patience for having money in my hands is disturbing me. The Council says the miracle she’s asking for is a change in her beliefs. Be grateful this job is coming to you. Be grateful it will pay you money you need. As you’re grateful for these things, whether you like the job or not, the perfect situation will come along.

The Council closes by saying Miya wanted to experience negativity in this lifetime and she’s created it all around her. Now go back and look at for the good in each of these situations. Improve your thoughts. Know that each person is a spirit, whether you like them or not, and bless them. You have no idea what these people are going through and what their challenges are. Begin to think of other people with compassion and send them love. Be grateful you have a job whether you like it or not. Be grateful for the amount of money you’re making whether you like it or not. Be grateful for your environment. You’re not alone. If you can do this, things will change for you.

Listen to the 15-minute audio recording of our session with The Council to hear all their guidance for Miya and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it, or ask your own question.
