Prosperity Consciousness
Prosperity Consciousness is something that I have struggled with all my life. I am just now beginning to fully understand how my subconscious mapping fully affects how I project my intention out in the Universe. I think this is how a lot of us go wrong in with our manifestations. We don’t take into account our old programming and adjust for it.
I have been reading avidly about neuroplasticity and how conditioning literally shapes how we think, feel and interact in the world.
The good news is that the human brain is plastic, meaning it can be retrained and remapped. The other side of that is the more an action or thought process is repeated the harder it is to remap the brain for something different. That doesn’t mean that we can’t relearn and remap and recondition the brain even though are patterns are well-grooved. It just means that it takes extra focus, repetition and a whole lot more reprogramming. With hard work bad habits, negative thought processes and intentions can be transplanted with positive ones.
I think neuroplasticity and conditioning is an integral key to Prosperity Consciousness. If we can find those subconsciousness triggers that trip up or intention then there is more of an aptitude to change it and replace it with a more positive intention that will bring us the prosperity we deserve and that is rightfully ours. The Universe wants to give us prosperity and more fulfilling life. It is our source for everything we require.
However, I believe that we tend to be our own worst enemies because we don’t take the time to delve into the vast, deep ocean of self-awareness. I think if we really looked at ourselves with an emotional objectivity we would find that our triggers were stuffed away like the corpses in Bluebeard’s closet. Most of us don’t want to take the time to do the work. We want instant gratification putting our intentions out into the world and receiving what we desire with a shiny, red bow on top.
I know that I struggle with facing my true self – the light and the dark. From years of therapy, study, meditation and new age practices I believe that I have a better understanding of myself than most because I have done the work. Still, I have just skimmed the surface. I have fallen more than most. I have made my fair share of mistakes. With each journey I have found more pieces of myself and I have tried to learn the lessons. Taking it a step further I have successfully remapped portions of my brain. There are anxieties and thought processes that I have definately squashed replacing them with more healthy, successful way of dealing with issues in my life.
Prosperity Consciousness is tricky though. It has so much to do with what we believe about our self-worth and how we were conditioned to think about money. I know that I am earnest with my prosperity affirmations. At the time I know that I have faith in the Universe and I believe that it wants to give me what I deserve. However, when it comes down to it I was raised with a certain set of preconceived notions about wealth and how they affect the world. I question whether I want to be the typical stereotype of what a wealthy person represents in my head. Most of the wealthy people in my existence have been cold, spiritually-void, selfish individuals who use money as a tool for manipulation. I never ever want to be that.
So, even though my intentions are pure at the time I put them out in the world, my subconscious preconceived notions are working against me. Inevitably, I will self-sabotage myself 
without even realizing that I am doing it. The reason is not in my intention but in my subsconscious conditioning. My past experiences tell me that all wealthy people are self-serving, manipulative snobs. Therefore, my brain mapping is not conducive to Prosperity Consciousness.
For me, I know that the secret to my Prosperity Consciousness is to reprogram my brain to associate wealth with happiness. I need to find positive role models who are doing spiritual work and are filthy rich. I need to study their works and remap my brain in a manner where I believe that you can be spiritual, giving, love and yes, VERY WEALTHY.
I believe this is why vision boards are so important. By looking at what we require from the Universe to be our most happy, healthy and successful selves, we are bridging our conscious desires and our subconscious programming. We are effectively remapping our brains.
I am a writer and so my vision board is a little bit different. I have note cards with goals written on them and they are clustered together like the inspiration bubbles I used to have to write out in English class. Eventually, I am going to incorporate pictures on my vision board to go along with the note cards but I like the idea of my note card floating around in the Universe like little bubbles of limitless possibilities.
My vision board is placed on the wall in front of my bed. That way when I wake up in the morning it’s the first thing I see. I walk by it and read my note cards. Sometimes I add new ones and take down others. Sometimes I re-shift them and imaging that the same motion is working in my brain. That I am shifting my consciousness by remapping my subconscious.
Lately, I have been saying outloud, “The Universe is the source of all that I require for prosperity. I am remapping my brain to accept the prosperity I truly deserve.” Then I ask the Universe, “Universe, how have you brought me the Prosperity I require?” And after that I thank the Universe for giving me the prosperity I require and being so generous with me.
Last night, I dreamed that I was shifting parts of myself around. I was re-cataloguing the thoughts in my brain. So, I believe that my Prosperity Consciousness is slowly but surely becoming one of positive intention. One that will bridge with my positive conscious intentions.
I have noticed since I have had a consciousness awareness of the reprogramming that I must do in order to bridge my conscious intentions and my subconscious conditioning, life has been more easy. Money comes to me easier. I just happen to have the exact amount of money I need to pay off a bill. I have more faith in the process and in the Universe.
I am not fully intermingled into a perfect balance of conscious desire and subconscious intention but I am working on it. I am being brave, looking in the mirror and facing my demons. I am actively becoming more self-aware. I am focused and reprogramming.
Soon my Prosperity Consciousness will be where it should have been along. I will let you know when I make my first million. It should be anytime now…
