Take control of your financial future - II




You and I know, intellectually, that money is merely a medium of exchange. It allows us to simplify the process of creating, transferring and sharing value within a society. It's a convenience that together we've created in order to allow ourselves the freedom to specialize in our life's work without having to be concerned as to whether others will find our work worthy of barter.

We have learned to associate some of our most debilitating emotions to a scarcity of this commodity : anxiety, frustration, fear, insecurity, worry, anger, humiliation, and being overwhelmed, to name but a few.

As we are now witnessing in Eastern Europe, political systems have been toppled by the pressure associated to financial deprivation. 

Can you think of any country, any corporation, or anyone's personal life that has not been touched by the experience of financial stress?

Many people make the mistake of thinking that all the challenges in their lives would dissipate if they just had enough money. 

Nothing could  be further from the truth.Earning more money, in and of itself, rarely frees people.It's equally ridiculous to tell yourself that greater financial freedom and mastery of your finances would not offer you greater opportunities to expand, share, and create value for yourself and others.

Conclusion: So why do so many people fail to achieve financial abundance in a nation where economic opportunity surrounds us? We live in a country where people can create net worths in the hundreds of millions starting with a little idea for a computer that they first built in their garage.All around us there are role models of unbelievable possibility, people who know how to create wealth and maintain it.

How can it be, living in a capitalist country where our forefathers died for our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, that 95 percent of the American population by age sixty-five, after a lifetime of work, cannot support themselves  without help from government or family?

The Magnificent Obsession - Creating A Compelling Future....

GIANT GOALS PRODUCE GIANT MOTIVATION So often, people ask me, "Where do I get my energy? With all that intensity, no wonder you're so successful. I just don't have your drive; I guess  I'm not motivated. I guess I'm lazy." My usual response is, "You're not lazy! You just have impotent goals!" Frequently I get a confused look to this response, at which point I explain that my level of excitement and drive comes from my goals. Every morning when I wake up, even if I feel physically exhausted from a lack of sleep, I'll still find the drive I need because my goals are so exciting to me. They get me up early, keep me up late, and inspire me to marshal my resources and use everything I can possibly find within the sphere of my influence to bring them to fruition. The same energy and sense of mission is available to you now, but it will never be awakened  by puny goals. The first step is to develop bigger, more inspiring, more challenging ...

The Path to Wellness

Beauty is not limited to just the exterior. Beauty is intentionally nature and our physical appearance is just a small part of it. Therefore one should endeavour  to look beyond size, weight, height or skin colour to transform our personality. A number of self help books will tell you how to deal with the many aspects of one's life. To live a wholesome life one needs to transform the way we look at nutrition, grooming and attitude towards our day-to-day life. Beauty is not limited to just the exterior - size, weight, height or skin colour. Beauty is internal in nature and our physical appearance is only a part of it. Therefore one should endeavour to look beyond external factors to transform our personality. The first step in this transformation  is the acceptance of the fact that we are beautiful as we are. The important thing is to take good care of our skin,, hair  and body by eating well, exercising and maintaining basic hygiene. One must pay attention to their ...

WHY DOESN'T EVERYONE SET GOALS?

You might be thinking right now, "Well, this all sounds so inspiraional, but surely just setting a goal doesn't make it happen." I couldn't agree with you more. All goal setting must be immediately followed by both the development of a plan, and massive and consistent action toward its fulfillment. You  already have this power to act. If you haven't been able to summon it, it's merely because you have failed to set goals that inspire you.  What's holding you back? Surely you've been exposed to the power of goal setting before. But do you have a list of clearly defined goals for the results you will absolutely produce in your life mentally, emotionally,physically, spiritually, and financially? What has stopped you? For many it's the unconscious fear of disappointment. Some people have set goals in the past and failed to achieve them and, as a result of their disappointment and their fear of future pain, they stop setting goals. They don't ...
