Prosperity is commonly thought of as a matter of luck. Science of Mind teaches that it is more likely a matter of consciousness. Here are suggestions for you to consider to increase your prosperity awareness.

1. Training yourself to think affirmatively increases prosperity consciousness. Instead of focusing on what is missing or absent, train yourself to acknowledge what is present and working. Thinking affirmatively can have the effect of increasing peace of mind and helps redirect thinking to what is working in your life.

2. Train yourself to imagine the best case scenario instead of the worse case scenario. Try picturing yourself experiencing the desired outcome in a situation, especially when you notice that your mind is rehearsing all the ways the situation could go wrong.

3. Train yourself to repeat affirmative statements. Repeating affirmations is an ancient technique of training your mind by saturating it with words and pictures that are life affirming.

4. Train yourself to create order in your environment. Cluttered living and working spaces can be a drain on your attention and energy. Some people thrive on chaotic environment and others become tired and scattered. Create your work and play environment to support your prosperity consciousness.

5. Train yourself to do acts of service or kindness. Expand your activities to include doing good for others as a way of increasing your prosperity consciousness.
