Five Steps To Finding Your Fortune
Designer Living, Educational Posts, Seminars, Wealth Creation / Financial Freedom No Comments »This is the 4th in my series of lessons on finding your wealth effortlessly.
I was having coffee the other night with an old friend, Ash. He said something that startled me. “Bruce, I know you teach about creating wealth, but I always have ENOUGH TO GET BY, so wealth doesn’t interest me.”
I resisted the urge to grab Ash by the shoulders and shake some sense into him. Instead, I relied “Well, if you want to continue to just GET BY, then by all means, go ahead. But, if you want to live the ‘GOOD LIFE’ and really contribute to making the world a better place, you are going to need some money.”
Now, I’m the first to teach that money can’t buy you HAPPINESS. However, it CAN buy you some pretty cool things, like FREEDOM and TIME.
FREEDOM and TIME are things that Ash values highly, so why did he say that creating WEALTH didn’t interest him?
LIES, MYTHS and DECEIT
Many of us were brought up to believe that making money has to be hard work – that it requires sacrifice or being unscrupulous. So if MONEY can’t buy you HAPPINESS and is going to require HARD WORK, SACRIFICE and possibly being UNSCRUPULOUS, then why would anyone waste their time trying to make money?
This is the BIG LIE that so many people LIKE Ash have bought into and it is this lie that is probably also keeping YOU financially stuck too. Why? Because if this lie is a part of your WEALTH BLUEPRINT (your unconscious beliefs around money), your unconscious mind, attempting to protect you, will not allow you anywhere near money for too long, before it creates a circumstance to make sure that you return to ‘just getting by’.
Right now, he is climbing Mount Kilimanjaro while leading a personal development seminar. Yes, you did read that correctly! Just as I learned lessons from riding my motorcycle through India and the Himalayas, he had some breakthroughs while climbing Kilimanjaro.
For many years, I dreamed of living a millionaire lifestyle, however I believed that I needed to be a millionaire before I could live that kind of lifestyle. I was wrong. While I was sitting in my beach lounger in Egypt, living a millionaire lifestyle, it occurred to me that living this kind of lifestyle does not cost as much as I originally thought it would and that I could have started living like this years ago.
