How much are you worth?
"Don’t confuse Wealth with the love of money. Wealth is freedom while the love of money is captive. Wealth frees the soul and love of money convicts the soul.’
The pursuit of money
Those who pursue money for money’s sake become captive to its promises. They become enslaved to the lure of prestige, power and ownership. It is true that in this affluent society of ours, there are more possibilities today than ever before. The enticement of wealth can dominate a rational mind and one should examine the reasoning for chasing wealth.
A false motivation
It is embedded in the human spirit from birth for achievement. It is only through the act of accomplishing that the human physi is able to realize and experience happiness and self-esteem. In many individuals, however, this instinct has been stifled and pushed aside. In Genesis God made man in His own image and said, "Let us make man in our image and likeness" He then said of his creation "It is good" in this context, man was make a living spirit and was the best of God’s creation.
Humans are born to dominate
Humans are given dominance over every living thing as well as the creation. God supplied abundance and man is a partaker in it. Man was created to be as God to achieve and excel. The human mind can achieve the impossible or fall in derogation to the gutter. Is it all a matter of choice? Do we succumb to our own destinies? Is our fate in our hands alone?
Emotion driven
It is unfortunate that some emotions can motivate a person to act in a harsh or incorrect manner such as: love, hate, fear. These basic emotions can be used as a motivation for success or can be used to suppress the instinct to thrive. These natural instincts are prevalent in everyone and remain just below the surface, patiently waiting for the freedom which allows them to come to the forefront of a person's life.
The key to control
It is when a person finds the key to lift and control negative roadblocks that he/she can pursue his/her sacred dreams. This is when they become free to fly like an eagle, lifting above the bonds of earth and soar as a super achiever. A natural law is: each time one thing in the physi is injured or obscured it will be replaced with something else. It is this inborn control mechanism that drives the force that motivates people to unsurpassed heights.
Prospective control
People face the world from a unique prospective, they see it from the inside looking out. What is fed in will ultimately influence the prospective of the individual. In our hard hitting, fast paced world of today, where negative rules, it's no wonder so many people are influenced into thinking they have no chance of personal success. Yet, even in all this diversity, best selling books, magazines, and the TV media are filled with stories of rags-to-riches success. Opportunities abound more today than ever.
Success shares certain traits
Most men and women who have become successful share a common denominator. They have discovered the secrets of their inner-self to motivate them into applying certain concepts for personal development that lead toward happiness and wealth. They connect with forces only they are able to feel and experience. As they become more and more financially independent they also discover a sort of freedom they have not experienced before. Freedom becomes a reality and the reality releases them to new heights in relationships of unimagined proportions.
You’re no different
You are the same as these who have become successful in their own rights. Each dreamed, wished, hoped and thought about how and what they could do to fulfill their desires. Soon we will supply you with a proven format so you too will have the blueprint for success. You will have a new vision and the fortitude to step out ahead of the crowd, and come face to face with your destiny. You will board your own ship of life where you are the captain. There is still the possibility of a sandbar at every turn, but you don’t care because now you have a detailed navigational chart that will lead you safely through.
The success concept
The concept of success has as many definitions as individuals who share it. One person may aspire to be meaningful and make a difference in others life experience while another may desire monetary wealth and yet another simply aspires to be the best cellist player he/she can be.
Diversities of People
The interest of people range from professional racecar drivers, fishermen, tractor operators, salespersons, pilots, artist, musicians to the many thousands of other things that occupy people. It is in the nature of people to want to be the best they can be in what ever they doing. While having a lot of money may not be the primary goal of an artist it still provides freedom to pursue his/her vision. You could say, "The realization of achieving personal worthwhile goals" defines success for most people. That's pretty simple, yet most people don't get anywhere near achieving their personal goals. Why?
Some mismanage
The mismanagement of resources and money have spawned an atmosphere of expected disappointments and failures but it doesn't have to be. People are only subject to their environment as much or little as they accepted it as the truth. The truth is, it's easy to fall pray to someone else’s negative thinking. In fact some people thrive on negativity
Some fail
Only a masochist would accept pain and failure as a way of life. No one wakes up each morning deliberately wanting to fail. A sad fact is, most people will be dependent on some outside source such as social security relatives or friends, charity, or part-time during their twilight years. What should be a brighter tomorrow turns into anxiety, desperation and need. As the Human life expectancy grows longer, additional people will spend more years in quite desperation. Their plight is a sign of indifference and is a growing concern for a nation known for its' abundance.
