Acknowledge the power that money has
on your life
I challenge you to think this was -
Your health and the health of the people that you love are important. But what
would happen if, God forbid, your or their health was suddenly compromised?
Wouldn’t you want to be in a financial position that will allow you to give
them the best care? Wouldn’t you be grateful to be in a good health plan and
have the best medical cover money can buy?
Also - isn’t it money that puts a roof
over your head, money that allows you to own that first car to drive around
with your friends?
Isn’t it money that allows you to take
your child to the best schools, retire early or quit your job while you go back
to school in order to pursue your career?
SO - if we agree that we need to have
money in order to enjoy a successful life
- why is it
therefore that we are always so reluctant to embrace this concept fully?
- Why are most
people very uncomfortable to openly talk about money - how much they have, how
much they want to make in life or how they should prepare for their future?
- Why is it the
minute people mention money, while we inwardly admit to yearning for it, we
believe that there is something wrong with talking openly about this yearn?
- Why are we so
uncomfortable and having read this, many will feel it “spiritually appropriate”
to shift our minds to the Misconception that “we are satisfied by a life of
lack? That as long as we have ………. They count many things that truly while
respectfully truth, are not on their own a substitute for the spiritual need
for an individual to have money (“yes, I believe that deep in our spirts we
crave money just as we crave food”) – for the truth is – we will not have the
food without the money.
What bothers me here is that, I am
convinced that
- We lie to
ourselves whenever we fail to acknowledge the power that money has to make our
lives better and happier.
- It’s a lie to
go our whole lives not openly talking to each other “those close to us at
least”, asking for help on how to better manage our finances, or even how to
spend wisely.
