Key Takeaways

1. Magic Money: Abundance Through Mindset and Action

Focus the great energy of your thinking on abundance, and treat all you receive with respect, and you will have abundance—despite what is happening around you.

Abundance is attracted. Magic Money isn't about wishing; it's a philosophy combining a positive mindset with practical actions. It's the abundance you attract through expected and unexpected channels by consistently applying specific principles. This approach has allowed the author and others to manifest money, clients, opportunities, and desired items with seeming ease over many years.

Beyond hard work. While hard work is valued, the Magic Money Philosophy suggests life doesn't have to be a constant struggle. By combining consistent daily practices, unwavering faith, and deep respect for money, the path to abundance can be faster and simpler than traditional methods. This book aims to demystify manifesting, making it practical and accessible for everyone, even skeptics.

Practical application. The core principle is that what you radiate, you attract, and how you treat money dictates how money treats you. By intentionally focusing your thoughts on abundance and treating money with respect, you align yourself with receiving more. This series breaks down these concepts into actionable steps, starting with foundational mindset shifts and practical money management techniques.

2. Your Money Set Point: Understand and Shift It

What’s interesting about our money mindset set point is that it is, at least until we take control of it, run by our subconscious minds.

Subconscious control. Just like a thermostat maintains a set temperature, your subconscious mind maintains a "money set point." This explains why people often return to a similar financial state, whether it's struggling to make ends meet or accumulating wealth but being afraid to spend it. When you dip below your set point, you act to get more; when you go above, you might unconsciously sabotage to return to the familiar level.

Recognize your pattern. Reflect on your financial history. Do you notice cycles of having a little more, then quickly spending it? Or perhaps hoarding money out of fear? These patterns reveal your current money set point. Becoming conscious of this set point is the crucial first step in changing it, as unconscious patterns will continue to repeat until addressed.

Intentional change. Shifting your money set point requires conscious effort to override subconscious programming. This involves examining your beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors around money. By making small, consistent changes in how you think and act, you can gradually train your subconscious mind to become comfortable with a higher level of abundance, permanently changing your financial trajectory.

3. Beginning Magic Money Mindset: Small Steps to Big Change

Trying to make a giant leap from where you are to where you want to be can be a huge mistake.

Gradual expansion. Expanding your money mindset is best achieved through small, incremental steps rather than attempting massive, sudden shifts. Just as training for a marathon involves gradually increasing distance, building prosperity consciousness requires consistent, manageable changes in thought and behavior. This approach minimizes frustration and increases the likelihood of permanent change.

Build endurance. If you've struggled with money anxiety or fear of not having enough, trying to instantly believe "money is like air" can feel overwhelming and lead to failure. Beginning Magic Money focuses on building your "endurance" for abundance. By taking baby steps to challenge limiting beliefs and adopt more positive ones, you strengthen your capacity to receive and maintain wealth.

Permanent shift. The goal of these beginning steps is to permanently change what you believe about money and how you think about it. This doesn't happen overnight, but through consistent practice, you will find yourself naturally attracting more money and experiencing greater financial ease. The small changes you make now lay the foundation for significant, lasting abundance.

4. The Seven Pillars of a Magic Money Mindset

Isn’t it time for you to be open to receive all that you want out of life, including money and an abundance of anything and everything you want and need?

Conscious control. The first pillar is taking control of your thoughts, words, and actions regarding money. This means consciously choosing to think and speak positively about money, recognizing its value and the good it enables. Money is energy, and it responds to your attitude towards it.

Openness to receive. Suspending disbelief and letting go of the belief that money must come through specific channels are crucial. Be open to receiving money from anywhere, at any time, in unexpected ways. This requires trusting that abundance is available and allowing it to flow to you without rigid expectations about its source.

Belief in abundance. The final pillars involve believing there is more than enough for you now and forever, and knowing that abundance is already on its way. This shifts your focus from lack to plenty, aligning your energy with receiving. Embracing these seven steps allows you to fully enter the flow state of receiving magic money and unlimited abundance.

5. Magic Money Maximization: Treat Money With Respect

You must show money the respect it deserves.

Respect attracts money. How you treat the money you currently have is a powerful indicator of your relationship with abundance. Treating money with respect means handling it with care, intention, and purpose. This contrasts with being frivolous (showing discomfort) or hoarding (showing fear), both of which repel money.

Practical habits. Showing respect involves simple, tangible actions.

  • Keep money organized neatly in your wallet.
  • Save spare change.
  • Carry a reasonable amount of cash to feel abundant and be prepared.
    These small habits signal to yourself and the Universe that you value money and are ready to handle more.

Intentional handling. Beyond just having money, maximizing it means being intentional about how you spend, save, and grow it. This involves pre-determining how you will allocate incoming funds, ensuring every dollar has a purpose. This purposeful handling demonstrates respect and encourages money to stay with you and multiply.

6. Allocate Your Money: The Power of Giving, Saving, and Fun

The act of giving reinforces to your subconscious mind that you do have more than enough.

Purposeful distribution. A key practical step is allocating a percentage of every dollar received into specific accounts: Giving, Saving, Fun, Debt (if applicable), and Taxes (if self-employed). This intentional distribution ensures money serves multiple purposes and reinforces a mindset of control and abundance.

Giving creates flow. Giving a portion of your income, whether called tithing or simply giving, is a powerful way to signal to your subconscious that you have more than enough to share. This act of generosity opens the channels for more money to flow back to you. It doesn't matter the percentage you start with (even 1%), consistency is key.

Savings and fun. Saving builds a "freedom fund" or "opportunity money," providing security and peace of mind, allowing you to focus on well-being rather than financial stress during challenges. The "Fun" account is crucial for equating money with joy and pleasure, making the process enjoyable and motivating your subconscious to attract more. Using fun money for things that bring you delight reinforces this positive association.

7. Your First Magic Money Experiment: Practice the Principles

Knowing what to do and doing it are two entirely different things.

Put knowledge into action. The only way to prove the Magic Money Philosophy works is to apply it. The first experiment is a 30-day commitment to practicing foundational mindset shifts and observation skills. It's suggested to focus on manifesting a specific amount for someone else or a cause, as this can feel easier than manifesting for oneself initially.

Four core actions. For 30 days, commit to:

  • Taking full responsibility for your life.
  • Stopping all complaining, criticizing, and gossiping.
  • Keeping a Magic Money Journal to record gratitude and evidence of abundance.
  • Watching for and recording all results, no matter how small.

Observe the evidence. This experiment is about gathering data. Every unexpected dollar, discount, gift, or positive event is evidence that the principles are working and you are on the right track. Recording these manifestations reinforces your belief and builds momentum. Do not yet implement the money allocation system; focus on the mindset shifts first.

8. Cultivate Gratitude and Responsibility: The Foundation

Magic Money flows to the person who lives in a constant state of gratitude for gratitude is just another way to describe the state of abundance.

Own your life. Taking full responsibility means acknowledging that your current circumstances, financial or otherwise, are a result of your past choices. This isn't about blame, but about reclaiming your power. By owning where you are, you empower yourself to make different choices and intentionally create a better future.

Eliminate negativity. Stopping complaining, criticizing, and finding fault is essential because negative energy repels abundance. Consciously choosing to be a "good-finder" and focusing on the positive shifts your vibration. When faced with negativity, remind yourself that everything is working out for your highest good.

Gratitude attracts. Living in a state of gratitude is synonymous with living in abundance. Keeping a Magic Money Journal to list everything you are thankful for, including every instance of money or abundance received, trains your mind to see the wealth that already exists around you. This focus on appreciation magnetizes more good things into your life.

9. Set Clear Intentions: Ask and Expect to Receive

Setting your intention is another way of saying making an ask, or simply, asking.

The power of asking. Setting an intention is like placing an order with the Universe. It's a clear statement of what you desire. It doesn't need to be complicated or "woo-woo"; simple phrases like "It would be great if..." or "I intend to receive..." are effective.

Ask and forget. The process involves two basic steps: Think it or Set it, and forget it; then Receive it. Once you've clearly stated your intention, release the worry and expectation of how it will happen. Trust that it is being handled, much like trusting an Amazon order will arrive after you click "buy."

Build your muscle. Start with small intentions to build your belief and "intention muscle." Intending to find money everywhere you go is a great starting point, as it provides frequent, tangible evidence of the principle working. As you consistently manifest small things, your belief in your power to manifest larger things will grow, leading to bigger and bigger results.

10. Consistency is Magic Money Gold

Without a doubt, I can say a commitment to a consistent practice is anyone’s best bet in the long term.

Stay in the flow. The key to long-term success with the Magic Money Philosophy is consistency. Life happens, and there will be times when your commitment wavers. However, the goal is to maintain the practice as much as possible, even during challenging periods. Stopping the practices can lead to a return to previous states of lack.

Don't start over. The author shares personal experiences of stopping the practices and suffering financially as a result. This highlights the importance of perseverance. Once you start giving, saving, practicing gratitude, and setting intentions, commit to continuing, even if imperfectly. This prevents having to "start over" from a place of lack.

Long-term results. While initial results can appear quickly (often within 24 hours), the true power of the philosophy is realized through sustained effort. Consistent application of the mindset shifts and practical actions builds momentum, leading to a continuous and increasing flow of magic money and abundance over time. Your commitment is the most valuable asset.
