Creating Affluence

How would you like to turn on the tap of an abundant flow or supply? How often do you experience a profusion of something? Both of these concepts are associated with affluence, and at some time in everyone's life we may all wish for more, even if we do not use the word affluence itself.
Affluence can be thought of as that experience when we feel our needs are being easily satisfied and it is as if our wishes are granted.
If that experience seems elusive, we can meditate on the concept of affluence each day, and begin to build a vision board that represents the state of affluence to us. We can look for evidence of it every day, for what we focus on expands.
We can ask ourselves what affluence actually means for us , what our affluent life would feel like and look like, taste like and smell like.
That's what this creating affluence is all about.
During our meditation time we could ask ourselves what color affluence is for us, and what shape it is, we could ask ourselves what is the scent of affluence , and what it sounds like. We can write these answers in our journal, and make a representation of our inner experiences too, such as making a drawing in the journal too.
I once read of a young man who wanted to experience more affluence coming to the realization of how important olive oil was for him in his cooking. He made a small yet crucial change in his behavior and began to buy only the highest quality olive oil and this realization followed by action was a turning point for him.
What might happen if you did these simple exercises today, what would you realize, and what would be your next small, inspired step into more allowing more affluence?
