I manifested a million dollar bill this weekend. What's interesting is that when I open up my wallet, I might be near broke, but then I see this million dollar bill. And this thought arises, "I have a million dollars, I don't have to worry about it." Then I get on with what I'm doing knowing that the money will be there when I need it.
That's the affirmation I have been playing with: you always get exactly what you need when you need it.
Consider that for a moment: for the rest of your life, whenever you need something to eat, clothes to wear, a place to sleep, a friend or money for whatever, you will have it right when you need it. If you don't have it you don't need it. There is nothing lacking at any time.
Life moves in a cycle between filling and emptying. We like to turn filling into "good" and emptying into "bad". The truth is that we can enjoy both sides if we don't get too attached to either one. And just in case you don't believe some guy that is about as (technically) broke as yourself, here's something from the book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad":
On the side of emptying:

"So their emotions do their thinking," Mike said.
"That's correct," said rich dad, "Instead of telling the truth about how they feel, they react to their feeling, fail to think. They feel the fear, they go to work, hoping that money will soothe the fear, but it doesn't. That old fear haunts them, and they go back to work, hoping again that money will calm their fears, and again it doesn't....For millions of people, that old fear keeps them awake all night, causing a night of turmoil and worry. So they get up and go to work, hoping that a paycheck will kill that fear gnawing at their soul. Money is running their lives, and they refuse to tell the truth about that. Money is in control of their emotions and hence their souls."

On the side of filling:

"The reason many rich people are rich is not because of desire but because of fear. They actually think that money can eliminate that fear of not having money, of being poor, so they amass tons of it only to find out the fear gets worse. They now fear losing it.... The fears that drove them to get rich got worse. That weak and needy part of their soul is actually screaming louder... Many are emotionally desperate and neurotic, although they look rich and have more money."

Rich Dad's answer to this issue:

"...Just be an observer, not a reactor, to your emotions. Most people do not know it is their emotions doing the thinking. Your emotions are your emotions, but you have got to learn to do your own thinking."
