Yes, I kwym. It's too far a leap to go from "I'm broke" to "I have financial abundance." But how about moving from "I feel broke" to "I feel hopeful" and see if that feels a little better? If it doesn't, try something else on. Maybe "I feel basically okay right now. They're not going to take away my children." (I use that one a lot, and it always makes me laugh. Especially since I don't have any children.
) When you get to a slightly better-feeling thought, then reach for an even better one, like maybe: "I have the sense that more and more abundance is becoming present in my life" .... and if that feels like too much of a leap, you can ratchet down a bit: "As I look around at some of my beautiful things, I am grateful for them." etc.
Use your emotions as feedback -- if a thought feels good, think it! And if it doesn't feel so good, look for a thought that does. You don't have to go from 0 to 60 -- you can move more and more into good-feeling thoughts in increments that are perfect for you, and are most beneficial for you. You can take as much or as little time as you want -- it's the movement that makes the difference, no matter how much velocity you start with.
