神：對大多數的人而言，無法吸引足夠的金錢與豐盛的關鍵，自我價值(self-worth)並不是問題所在。
問題的關鍵在於：你們對「豐盛」的運作原理，缺乏理解，並且通常對於什麼是「好」及什麼是「惡」，有大規模的誤判……
聽神談【無法吸引足夠的金錢與豐盛的關鍵】
尼爾：我為何仿佛無法在我的人生中吸引到足夠的金錢？ 我的餘生是否註定要省吃儉用？關於金錢，是什麼阻止了我去實現我全部的潛能？
這情況不只顯化在你一個人身上，也顯化在許多許多人的生活中。
尼爾：每個人都告訴我，那是個自我價值(self–worth)的問題，是各缺乏自我價值的問題。曾有幾十個新時代的老師們告訴過我，缺乏任何東西永遠都跟缺乏自我價值的問題有關。
那是個方便的簡化說法。但以你剛提出的問題，你的老師們是錯的。你(尼爾)並沒有缺乏自我價值 的問題。老實說，你一輩子最大的挑戰一向是「如何去掌控你的小我」。有人說那是一種自我價值過多的情形！
尼爾：哦，這回我又很困窘和懊惱了，但你說得沒錯。
每次我只是說出關於你的實情，你就一直說你很困窘又懊惱。困窘是一種「對於別人如何看待他仍然很自我投入的人」的反應（Embarrassment is the response of a person who still has an ego investment in how others see him.）。邀請你自己去跨越這點，去嘗試新的反應，試著以笑取代吧！
尼爾：好吧。
你並沒有自我價值的問題。你已有福地具有豐盛的自我價值。大多數人也都如此。
你們全都視自己為很有價值的人，如你們本應有的樣子。所以，對大多數的人而言，自我價值並不是問題所在。
尼爾：那什麼才是問題所在？
問題在於你們對「豐盛」的運作原理，缺乏理解，並且通常對於什麼是「好」及什麼是「惡」，有大規模的誤判。
例如，你們到處都懷有一種「金錢是邪惡的」的想法。你們也到處懷有一種「神是好的」的想法。祝福你們！因此，在你們的思維系統裡，神和金錢是不可混在一起的。
摘自《與神對話 1》第11章
Why can’t I ever seem to attract enough money in my life? Am I destined to be forever scrimping and scraping? What is blocking me from realizing my full potential regarding money?
The condition is manifested not just by you, but by a great many people.
Everyone tells me it’s a problem of self-worth; a lack of selfworth. I’ve had a dozen New Age teachers tell me that lack of anything is always traceable to lack of self-worth.
That is a convenient simplification. In this case your teachers are wrong. You do not suffer from a lack of self-worth. Indeed, your greatest challenge all your life has been to control your ego. Some have said it’s been a case of too much self-worth!
Well, here I am, embarrassed and chagrined again, but You are right.
You keep saying you’re embarrassed and chagrined every time I simply tell the truth about you.
Embarrassment is the response of a person who still has an ego investment in how others see him.
Invite yourself to move past that. Try a new response. Try laughter.
Okay.
Self-worth is not your problem. You are blessed with an abundance of it. Most people are. You all think very highly of yourself, as rightly you should. So self-worth, for the great mass of the people, is not the problem.
What is?
The problem is lack of understanding of the principles of abundance together, usually, with a massive misjudgment about what is “good” and what is “evil.”Let Me give you an example.
You carry a thought around that money is bad. You also carry a thought around that God is good. Bless you! Therefore, in your thought system, God and money do not mix.
