What's Your Personal Wealth?

Let's admit it, we go into business to make money. Sure, we probably were motivated by other factors such as passion, a mission, experience, a market gap...However, our lives are dominated by thoughts of how to make enough money to live on, how to make more, how to become wealthy and how stay this way.

It doesn't matter whether you're starting out or feeling a lot of abundance, you'll have your challenges. Making money represents power and our attitude reflects how we feel about abundance.

Not sure what you believe? Ask yourself these questions...
  1. What words below correspond to your beliefs about money?
  2. Of the words listed below, what do these words mean to you? Add your own...

Security, power, freedom, materialism, fun, legacies, greed, corruption, oppression, opportunity, generosity, evil, goodness, status and success.

Our fears often keep us from achieving what we want because we feel we'll change too much or our world will change for the worst so we self-sabotage ourselves. If we don't feel good about ourselves or doubt our abilities, we won't have emotional or financial wealth. If we manage to attain wealth but feel like someone will steal it away or the market will crash, we won't enjoy it.

Abundance is more than money and you don't have to wait until you accumulate a fortune to feel abundant - you can find abundance in what you have right now...relationships, passion, health, etc.

Think about your beliefs and see how you can make them positive - so you can attract what you desire.

That's it for now...
