So there I was, sitting cross-legged on my living room floor, trying to zen out during a new guided meditation. The candles were lit, the vibes were immaculate, and the calm voice said: “Money is infinite.”
Uh, what now? Infinite, like the refills at Olive Garden? Like Netflix recommendations you’ll never watch? Intrigued, I decided to dive deeper into this idea because, let’s be real, if money is infinite, why does my wallet sometimes feel like a black hole?
The Concept: Money as Energy
Turns out, the “money is infinite” thing isn’t about printing endless Benjamins (sorry, it’s not a get-rich-quick hack). It’s rooted in the idea that money is energy. And like energy, it flows—it comes, it goes, and theoretically, there’s no cap on how much of it can exist in the world. You know, abundance mindset stuff.
The idea challenges the way we’ve been conditioned to think about money: that it’s scarce, hard to earn, and always running out. Instead, it’s about seeing money as a limitless resource that expands when we focus on creating value, sharing generously, and believing we deserve it.
But let’s pause for a moment—because this all sounds lovely in theory. Yet, as someone who’s googled “how to make pasta from scratch with $3 in my bank account,” I know believing in infinite money takes a little mental gymnastics.
My Research Rabbit Hole
When I started researching, I kept coming across people who claimed that shifting their mindset was the key to unlocking financial abundance. Instead of thinking, “I can’t afford that,” they asked, “How can I afford that?” Instead of stressing about bills, they practiced gratitude for what they already had.
And honestly? It makes sense. Ever notice how focusing on what you don’t have just makes you feel worse? But when you start seeing opportunities instead of roadblocks, life feels a little more manageable. It’s like that time I realized my avocado toast addiction wasn’t the reason I couldn’t buy a house—but maybe cutting back on random Amazon purchases could help.
The Funny Side of Infinite Money
Here’s the thing: imagining money as infinite doesn’t mean you should start swiping your credit card like you’re Oprah. (“You get a car! You get a car!”). It’s more about trusting that there’s enough to go around if you align yourself with the flow of abundance.
Still, I couldn’t help but laugh at some practical questions:
- If money is infinite, why does my Wi-Fi bill feel like an infinite struggle?
- Should I stop keeping receipts, or is that still a thing in the abundance universe?
- Can I manifest a latte, or does my barista need actual cash?
Infinite or not, I’ll still tip her—because generosity is a key part of the abundance mindset. (Plus, she makes a mean oat milk cappuccino.)
How to Embrace the Idea
If you’re curious to dip your toe into this money is infinite pool, here are a few things to try:
- Gratitude First: List three things you already have that bring you joy. (Even if it’s just your favorite coffee mug, a good playlist, or your dog’s goofy grin.)
- Ask the Right Questions: Instead of thinking about limits, think about possibilities. How can you create more value?
- Visualize the Flow: Imagine money coming to you, not just as cash, but as opportunities, support, and generosity.
- Give Freely: Even small acts of giving—like donating $5 to a cause—can help you feel rich in spirit.
Final Thoughts: Is Money Really Infinite?
I think the idea isn’t about turning us into billionaires overnight (though hey, I wouldn’t complain). It’s about shifting our relationship with money—from something scary and scarce to something we can welcome with open arms.
So, while I’m still working on my abundance mindset (and occasionally yelling at my budget spreadsheet), I do find comfort in this idea: money, like life, expands when we approach it with curiosity, creativity, and a little faith.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to meditate on abundance. Maybe next time I’ll manifest free guac at Chipotle. Because if money is infinite, guacamole should be too.
