365 days to your richest life: day 10
The following is the first of a series of summaries of workshops I facilitated at Unity of Vancouver in 2002. This is the Coles Notes version, obviously, but if you’re looking for financial serenity in your life, you may find this offers easy access to the path.
Lesson 1: Prosperity begins with letting go of personal money myths to embrace a more powerful truth
Living the reality of abundance requires acknowledging the reality of abundance — and that acknowledgment requires the rejection of many almost universally accepted ‘truths’.
“There is not enough to go around.”
“Life is a struggle.”
“We must work hard (suffer) in order to get ahead.”
“If we don’t fight for and cling to what’s ours, we’ll lose it.”
While all of these statements are true when viewed from a superficial perspective, financial freedom requires that we embrace the concept of parallel truth. While poverty may be real, abundant wealth is just as real, and is available to us through the simple means of a shift in perception. The quality of our life is determined by our behaviour, and our behaviour is rooted in our beliefs.
“The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. The opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth. ”
Niels Bohr (1885-1962)
To accomplish this shift in perception, and thus, a shift in “life-style,” we need only adopt a three-fold process — join me tomorrow, or if you’re an eager beaver, visit the “Achieving Financial Serenity” page.
