Money is sexually attracted to me*

I read The Barefoot Doctor's book, Manifesto, when I was pregnant and feeling rather mellow and new-agey (I know I'm self-helpy, but I'm not usually new-agey) and I LOVED it.

I feel a bit bad for old Barefoot actually, because it's basically The Secret, but written in a less mystical and more entertaining manner.

And it's chock-full of affirmations. Like

People love giving me loads of money simply for being alive.

I now make loads of money doing what I most enjoy.

My income now always far exceeds my expenditure.

Money now comes to me in ever increasing amounts, with ever increasing velocity and speed, from every direction at once.

I now manifest the perfect home for me - even if I can't see where the money's coming from - easily, effortlessly, enjoyably, swiftly and miraculously.

I used to do a couple of affirmations - one when I was in the shower and another when I was washing the dishes - and although I've no idea whether or not they work (they weren't really things you can see...), doing them made me feel better.

He recommends that you repeat the above affirmations at times when you would instead be worrying and fretting about money and that's good advice for me. I'll try and remember to do them and let you know how I get on.

Oh and I've pinned my favourite up on my desk:

If you feel too lazy or apathetic to take the next step, stop being such a lazy bastard and take the next step.

* This is a genuine affirmation that I heard in a podcast!
