Be able to provide for yourself far above and beyond the bare minimum of surviving?

To be able to take care of your family and have the freedom and options to do the things you’ve wanted to do all of your life now that you are no longer limited by lack of time or money?

To be able to help out your friends, family and loved ones when they are struggling?

To be able to give more of yourself to the rest of the world, to causes that you  believe in, to people who need a helping hand?

To know that you are a powerful co-creator who can achieve any dream you come up with?

To live your life with purpose and meaning… to know that you are doing what you were meant to do?

If you find yourself struggling to make ends meet, then it’s high time to analyze your thinking and beliefs about yourself, the economy and the world in general. Watch the words you say and see if they are positive and uplifting, expanding or are they  negative, depressing and small minded?  The words you say are a direct reflection of the thoughts and beliefs in your head. These in turn dictate the action and choices you make or don’t make.  It starts with whats going on inside your head… and MORE IMPORTANTLY, your heart.

If you aren’t feeling the feelings you would like to  - satisfaction, joy, excitement, happiness – or maybe you aren’t in touch with your feelings at all and feel nothing – then it’s time to get back in touch with them for that is what is holding you back.

That’s why I wrote the ‘what ifs’ at the beginning of this post.  They are just a few of the thoughts you can hold in your mind and begin to FEEL what that sort of reality would be like (if it’s not already) and then you can begin to move in the direction of greater and greater happiness for such is the desire of every being on this planet.

It is natural to desire more and more and greater and greater happiness… What is NOT normal is to struggle needlessly and live in lack of abundance of goodness.  I am not saying that a lack of challenges is the way things should be. No, we need to be challenged to better ourselves.  But to constantly struggle and get nowhere is a misconception that has been programmed into a vast number of people’s consciousness by forces that would love nothing more than to see us suffer.  You can rise above that by starting with feeling and thinking love, good thoughts, positive expectations and so forth.  It starts NOW.

Be the shining light. The example others want to follow.  Don’t watch most TV that is mindless drivel designed to dumb you down and create a fearful mind.  Choose your friends wisely.  Those who you spend the most time with will affect what you think, do and say.

No matter what the past has been like for you, no matter what you used to believe and do and say, today is a NEW day. A chance to make a different choice. A better choice. A positive change to move you closer, not further from your beautiful life.
