The Prosperity Game (LoA) - Page 4

I don't want to derail this thread, but I thought I'd mention that I started one on the Frugality & Finances pages for discussion of the LOA and creating prosperity:

Hey, this is getting easier. Today with $1500, I bought a year gym membership at a gym with a saltwater pool and a new refrigerator

I'm pretty damn happy with my purchases - they are exactly what I want!:

[shelf]

today was $500. I picked out patio furniture. I've been wanting a set for a few years and finally found the one I wanted.

[4tsomething]

I just started playing. I spent my first $100 on a date night with DH complete with dinner, movie and a babysitter! This is fun!!

I love this post!! What a fun game. Yesterday was my first day and I spent the $100 on a ½ oz bottle of neroli oil which I love and have been dying for. It felt great to buy such a luxurious item for myself. Then last night my mom came over to buy post-natal herbal baths from me (she’s a midwife and I supply her baths for her.) Guess how much she bought? That’s right $100 worth! I can’t wait to spend the $250 (just as soon as I think of something I simply must have.)

Oh, and I keep getting little whiffs of orange blossoms too, isn’t that fabulous?!

I didn't play this weekend. I will today though!

[hannahi]

So has anyone noticed any changes since starting to play this game? I'm up to day 8, and I'm spending money on things that make me feel good, but still, I sense that I'm not allowing the prosperity to manifest...but I guess that it takes a while to break old thought patterns.

Oh my goodness, I haven't played in days! * Goes to play game *

[chasmyn]

Okay, what is going on with me? I actually logged in to the game yesterday and then didn't play. I couldn't think of anything immediately, so I just went and did other things. I could use the excuse that we're packing and moving but trul, the game only takes a few minutes generally, so what is it? It's been days now! Does anyone else have any insights? Is anyone else having this kind of experience?

I wonder why this thread is so quiet...

I signed up but never started - probably because I'm afraid of not sticking with it. I did the game for a while on my own last summer, after reading about it in 'Ask and It Is Given'. But I didn't last long. I don't know what it is. It should be fun - but it's stressful!

Actually, I probably could do it, but then I'd spend all day searching the Internet for stuff to 'buy' - and then when would I follow all the LoA threads?

[Annikate]

I haven't played in days either.

I think about it and then I'm kind of stuck on what I'm going to spend the money on.

I don't know if it's changed my thinking at all, but it sure is fun (when I'm in the mood to do it.)

Maybe I'll go log in and just spend the money on *whatever*. Maybe I'll let dds go crazy in the Dollar Store! lol!

Okay, I finally played - I had to reach! $2500...I bought a brand new Mac Laptop:

[snowbunny]

I'm just starting out and it was so ... delicious!

I spent my $100 on a trip to the hotsprings with massages for two. The visualization was so much fun--and really a sensory delight.

[simplegirl]

I just joined! I spent my $100 on an outfit that would make me look and feel sexy, that would turn heads. Let's see where this takes me!

[*Melissa*]

I just started playing! I spent my first $100 on a hot-stone massage, fresh mineral water and a relaxing CD!!! I'm so excited - my list is at 39 things already. At first, I was feeling frugal when I first started playing, but I got over that and now I even have a private jet on my top 100 list - I got tired of writing "first-class plane tickets" on all the vacations I want to take!

I have serious money issues, coming from a poor upbringing with a huge scarcity mentality. So I'm really hoping this helps. Either way, it's fun so far!

I just signed up for the game a few days ago after reading through this thread. How's everyone doing? It's fun, although I must admit there is an element of stress.. which is why I'm trying it - to overcome those nagging feelings. Like PP, I have money issues from growing up without much money. I'm WAAAY too focused on it. It's like put myself on a starvation diet and do fine for weeks, then binge.
Anyway, hope to hear updates from everyone!

[chasmyn]

You don't want to know from me, I'm a mess emotionally about finances lately. I'm way too fried mentally to play the game...:

Okay, so now that I have some clarity, I think that he best thing for me to do is to keep playing the game to get myself back in that easy abundance mindset.

We have more than enough money.

Money comes to me easily and frequently, and from multiple sources.

New money is being printed for me right now!

My mailbox is full of cheques!

There is always more than enough. I am safe.
