The Button Money Game
(by Susan James)
(Introduction)
The intent (for me) with all the games that I do, are
to help me practice so that I don’t need to monitor
my thoughts and words anymore. Meaning, I
automatically respond in ways that feel good,
without having to purposely think about it in order
to keep my self on track.
These games have helped me over the years change
and expand my beliefs. So…if we would prefer
to believe new things, expanded things about
ourselves and our lives, we need to find ways to
help us change what we think about what’s
possible for us. And what is? MORE and MORE
and MORE!
This means that the beliefs I prefer to have show
up automatically which then affects my behavior
and how my experience shows up. The human
effort that I’ve made matches with the higher
consciousness that I prefer, which affects the
quality of my experience. And round and round
and up the spiral we go.
The games help me maintain ‘effortless
visualization’ and anyone reading any personal
development books, become aware that ‘imaging
creates reality’ (Neville). It’s been my intent to
keep it all as easy as I could, so that I would keep
doing it. I’ve done it with games. They have kept
me consistent in my practice.
(If you need a reason to try some of this:
These games have brought me so much excitement
from time to time that I can’t sit down!)
So here is one that I hope is helpful. Please email
me if you have any questions. Also, this will be
rather long in content, so if you’d prefer to have it
in a word doc or pdf, just let me know and I’ll send
it along. (Email me here: Email Susan )
The Button Money Game
(by Susan James)
I’m sure you are familiar with the phrase: ‘Every
Day In Every Way I Am Getting Better and Better’
This phrase was first introduced by Emile Coue in
his writings of ‘Self-Mastery Through Conscious
Autosuggestion’. It’s who Catherine Ponder and
Florence Shinn and many others who’ve written
along these themes attribute the phrase to.
For the purpose of this game I have fine tuned his
phrase a bit to be ‘present tense’.
“Every Day In Every Way I AM Better and
Better”
He suggests saying the phrase outloud 20X a day
and finding a way to count the 20 so that you are
not preoccupied with counting, instead of the
phrase. He used a string with 20 knots tied in it to
keep track.
So..what I did, as when I used to walk up and
down my sisters lane, and wanted to measure out
how many times it took me to walk a mile. Each
time I got back to the top of the lane, I would put
a pebble on the fender of a car parked there.
This both helped me know how far I was going,
without trying to remember how many times I had
been up and own the lane, and it also felt good
each time I put a pebble on the fender.
I made it into a button game, based on the Castles
and Buttons books and my fond reminder of my
GrannyMother, when she use to play; ‘button
button, whose got the button’ with us
grandchildren. She ‘sewed’ so she always had
these neat containers full of buttons.
1. So, if it feels right (and you do not need the
buttons to play this, you can use any thing that is
‘20 of the whatever’.)
2. If you choose to use the buttons, any of the
large retail stores have bags of buttons for a dollar.
If you buy them then count out 20 and put them in
a baggy to have them ready each day.
3. Sit with the buttons in your palm and as you
say: ‘Every Day In Every Way I Am Better and
Better,’ move a button from your hand to your
desk or clipboard or wherever you are setting to
do this. (I close my eyes)
20 buttons means you have said it 20X.
(I use my magic clipboard)
This is a simple game, that as you say it, ALL
things will benefit, including your health and
money!
AND if you want to add something specifically in
regard to money, try this:
As you put the 20 buttons back in the baggy, one
by one, say this:
Everyday is an Easy $( ) Dollar Net Payday.
Just keep saying the phrase one by one as you put
each button back in the baggy.
I do both of these games in 9 day intervals, and
then if it feels right, I do another 9 days.
AND if you are familiar with The Swords of 3:
Try This:
Everyday is My $( ) Payday
Best and Splendid Success!
