10 Steps for Manifesting Wealth Quickly

  1. Creating a list is an important step toward making your future a reality. The universe responds positively to acts of creation, so make a physical list with a pen and paper to show you’re motivated to make things happen. Writing things down also helps clarify your intention and makes it easier to prioritize your wants and needs. McVey recommends writing down your desires in clear, concise words with a title and the date. [1]
  2. The more detailed your goal, the more likely you are to achieve it, says spiritual director Jennifer McVey. [4] “I want to be rich” is pretty vague (“rich” means different things to different people). Ask yourself a few questions to help you set specific intentions Why do you want more money? Exactly how much money do you need? Do you need one lump sum or more money each month? How much time are you willing to put in? When do you want the money? Clarify these specifics. [5] For example:
    • “I need a $10,000 raise so I can save up to buy my first home next year.”
    • “I need $2,000 by April 30th to go on vacation to Hawaii this year.”
    • “I want to make $200 more per month while working 40 hours a week so I can explore more nightlife in my city.”

  3. Take a hard look at your relationship with money so you can start setting realistic goals . Look at areas where you can improve. Consider what you need to do to reach your end goal. Map out how to get there with smaller, attainable subgoals like saving $100 per month or only paying for takeout once a week. When you see the positive impact of these smaller choices, your end goal won’t seem so far-fetched. [6]
    • You can’t predict exactly when your money will manifest, but including a timeline in the planning stage gives you a general idea of what to expect as you work toward your goal.
  4. When you have a dream, it inspires every action you take to get closer to it. Inspired actions are the real, concrete things you do to achieve your goal so you can meet the universe halfway. Take steps every day, week, month, and year to reach your end goal. Focus on breaking old spending or saving habits that hold you back and exploring new ways to manage your money. Once you’ve got a plan, it’s time to get to work! [7] For example:
    • Scrutinize each purchase to determine if it serves your goal or life. This thought process helps you curb unintentional spending and save up for important or exciting things. [8]
    • To spend less on takeout, prioritize meal planning and grocery shopping to save money.
    • If you want a raise, try investing in a new certification program or practicing your negotiation skills.
    • Take on additional freelance projects to save up for a vacation or big purchase.
    Rhonda Byrne, Bestselling Author

    Attracting money starts in your mind. Picture having wealth now — really feel the joy and gratitude. The universe responds to your frequency, so stay positive and abundant in your thinking. But you can't just wish for cash to fall from the sky. Align actions with intentions. Stay open to opportunities and believe you deserve abundance. Wealth isn't just physical...it's a state of mind. Embrace it, and the universe will deliver. When you send out the vibe that you already have prosperity, more comes your way. The law of attraction works when you know that you're worthy and ready to receive.

  5. Maybe there’s an intriguing “help wanted” sign you keep walking by, or you overhear a stranger talking about a new budgeting app. If you stay open-minded and attentive, the universe will subtly present you with new opportunities to achieve your goals. [9]
    • Leave your comfort zone and old repetitive habits to open yourself up to trying new things. If you need a new result, you have to try new tactics!
    • Believe that you can try new things and do them successfully. Self-doubt and fear are huge blocks to manifestation. [10]
  6. Imagine how a person who’s met your financial goal acts and feels. How do they approach their expenses? What do they consider a worthwhile purchase? Picture yourself in their shoes and then start acting like that version of yourself. Do everything you can to embody that feeling of success. [11] This practice helps change your mindset about money from one of want and need to one of abundance and opportunity.
    • It also helps you gain clarity on what you really want when you imagine what it’s like to get rid of the financial barrier.
    • Only spend what you can while you embody this successful “future you.” Focus on thoughts, feelings, and priorities rather than actual dollar amounts.
    • Treat everything you buy like a luxury item that makes your life better.
    • Above all, make an effort to leave any financial missteps you’ve made in the past. Keep your focus on the future!
  7. Visualizing clarifies what you want and keeps you motivated. Imagine what your future could be and picture what being financially stable or wealthy feels like. What could you do with more money? How do you feel when your needs are met? Be detailed and bold when you paint yourself a mental picture of your future. [12]
    • Meditating on images of your future is a great way to align your vision with your inner emotions.
    • Try creating a vision board with images and quotes to help you picture your financial future. Place it somewhere you’ll see it often, like near your desk or computer.
    • Try script manifesting if you have trouble picturing things in your mind’s eye. Write in your manifestation journal before bedtime to plant the seed for dreams of your future.
    • Use the 369 method as a form of script manifesting. Just write your desire 3 times in the morning, 6 times in the afternoon, and 9 times at night.
    • Don’t forget to add 888, the angel number associated with financial success, to your vision board or journal.
    • Other angel numbers that may help you visualize abundance are 000 (opportunities are coming), 111 (new beginnings), and 777 (shows you’re on the right path).
  8. The universe responds positively to good vibes. Say your positive affirmations out loud every morning to raise your vibrations and let the universe know you’re ready for change. If you feel uncomfortable shouting your affirmations, try the whisper method . To put out the best energy, speak about the positives happening in your life right now instead of reiterating what you still want. [13] McVey recommends always writing your affirmations in the present tense so you’re manifesting for now and not 50 years in the future. [14] Try:
    • “I am financially stable.”
    • “I’m worthy of financial abundance.”
    • “I am a money magnet, and money flows freely to me.”
    • “I was made to be creative and make money.”
    • “I deserve to make more money.”
  9. One way to help you visualize wealth is to create an environment that draws abundance. Wear clothes or decorate your home using colors that represent money—like green, silver, and gold. Carry crystals like pyrite, citrine, and green aventurine to manifest money and success. [15] Keep plants in your home—or use essential oil—that attract prosperity , like jasmine, bergamot, and thyme.
    • Lighting a green candle can help draw money and give your home a comfortable atmosphere.
    • Get a new wallet in gold or green. Make sure to get rid of any old receipts and loyalty cards you don’t use to get a fresh start.
    • If you can, get a $100 bill (or more) or write yourself a check for the amount of money you want to manifest. Then, fold it up and tuck it into a pocket to remind you that you have money.
    • Charge your crystals in moonlight to give them more power. Then, write an affirmation on a slip of paper and put it under your favorite money crystal.
    • Treat yourself to a manicure, and make sure to use green or gold nail polish colors to draw abundant energy to you!
  10. Some studies have shown that generosity is associated with better physical and psychological health. There are even reports that spending money on others can make you feel better than spending it on yourself. [16] Giving produces a feeling of abundance that will come back to you. You come out on top whether you win the lottery or just have better self-esteem. [17]
    • You don’t have to give a lot. Buying the guy in line behind you a cup of coffee or dropping an extra dollar in the tip jar sends good vibrations into the universe.
    • Don’t give to others with the goal of getting something back. This sends out the message that you don’t have what you need, which is a negative vibration.

Creating an Abundance Mindset

PDF download Download Article
  1. Manifesting works because you shift your mindset to look at your situation in a more positive light. Part of that is having faith that the universe will work for you as long as you believe in yourself and take steps to achieve your goals. Stay positive, even if things are tough or happening very slowly. It’s easy to lose faith and spiral into a negative vibration, but that only pushes your success farther away. Stay grateful, keep your goals clear, and keep up the good work! [18]
    • Focus on learning, growing, and improving rather than fixating on the end result. This growth mindset is linked to higher success rates and goal achievement. [19]
  2. Believing in yourself is vital to manifestation. It makes you open to possibilities and ideas that you wouldn’t normally consider. Release your doubt and insecurity and recognize you have the power to make positive changes in your financial circumstances. [20] Any time you have a negative thought about yourself, turn around and say something positive that reminds you that you’re a powerful creator spirit, recommends McVey. [21]
    • For example, change “I’m just not good at managing my money” to “I'm capable of managing my money.”
    • Remember, your self-worth isn’t measured with money. You’re an amazing person who deserves good things, no matter how much money you have in the bank.
  3. Tell the universe you’re thankful for the new money coming your way. Recognize your progress and stay optimistic by showing gratitude for every win you get, no matter how small. Try to express gratitude every day in some form to help avoid negative thoughts and emotions. [22] Practice gratitude by:
    • Journaling about every positive thing that happened to you today that moved you closer to your goal.
    • Listing (out loud or on paper) 3 things you’re thankful for before you go to bed each night.
    • Meditating on your successes, improvement, and growth since you first began manifesting.
    • Writing notes of appreciation for your friends and loved ones to thank them for being a positive force in your life.
    • Making a list of the positive aspects of your financial situation. Do you always pay your phone bill online? Write it down and celebrate it!
  4. Not only does persevering help you look on the bright side, but it can also help fight depression and anxiety. [23] If you feel you’re not making progress, reevaluate your goals, action plan, or list of desires.
    • Ask yourself questions like, “Was there something I missed?”, “Have my needs changed?”, and “Was my original goal attainable?”
    • Adjust your main goals or mini goals to better fit your financial needs or handle large, unexpected expenses that come up.
    • Aim to hold yourself to your original goals if possible, but don’t beat yourself up if you have to make a few changes. Remember, goals should be flexible, not set in stone.

What is the law of attraction?

PDF download Download Article
  1. The law of attraction says that your thoughts draw energy toward you like magnets. “We are all manifesting things already. Everything that you have, that you see, that is in your life, you have already manifested,” says McVey. [24] Having a positive mindset helps draw positive energy your way.
    • Many people use the law of attraction to draw prosperity, love, and happiness toward them.
    • The law of attraction comes from the New Thought movement that started in the United States in the 1800s. [25]
    • The best-selling book The Secret by Rhonda Byrne and its movie adaptation have made the law of attraction popular in the last 20 years.

Money Manifestation FAQs

PDF download Download Article
  1. Yes, all types of affirmations work because they’re positive statements that help you believe you’re worthy of what you want. If you tell yourself you’re not good enough to have more money, you might be less likely to do anything to change your finances. That’s where positive affirmations come in. They help you change your negative thoughts and self-doubt into a positive mindset. [26]
    • Positive affirmations are a manifesting tool, but if you feel like they aren’t working to help you feel good about yourself, it might help to talk to a mental health professional.
  2. Yes, meditation can help you manifest greater abundance. Meditation helps you think, concentrate, and solve problems. [27] All three can help you with setting your intentions and goals. Improved concentration makes visualizing your prosperous future and creating an abundance mindset easier.
  3. Unclear goals, focusing on what you lack, disbelief, and not acting are some common reasons for delayed manifestation. Take a look at your goals and intentions. Are they as specific as possible? Is there anything you can do to make them clearer?
    • Try to notice any negative thoughts about your finances. Even something like, “I don’t want to be broke,” can be a negative thought.
    • Have you been taking real-world steps toward your goal? Visualization is a powerful tool, but manifestation needs action to work.
    • Do you believe you can manifest money? It’s okay to have the occasional doubt, but don’t let yourself dwell on it. Acknowledge it and move on to more positive thoughts.
  4. You can manifest money at any time. However, some feel that using the moon's energy gives manifesting an extra boost. Try working on manifesting new money between the New Moon and the Full Moon . During this time, the moon’s energy is growing, making it perfect for bringing things into your life. [28]
    • Start new intentions on or around the New Moon to start your manifesting off on the right foot.
    • When charging crystals or candles to help you manifest money, put them in the light of the full moon to charge them up with its energy.
  5. The best way to manifest money long-term is to stick with it. Manifesting money consistently isn’t a one-and-done thing. Continue to work on your positive money mindset, set clear intentions, and move toward your goals to keep drawing money and abundance into your life. And when you manifest money, don’t forget to have gratitude for what you have. [29]
    • When you set your intentions, make sure you’re stating you want an extra $1000 each month .
    • Be persistent. Just because you successfully manifest money one month, doesn’t mean you can go back to negative thoughts and not take any action.
