Confidence/Courage - Wealthy
people need to be strong people. Why? Because of all the shysters
out there who would do anything to get their hands on our money.
This could be anyone from close friends and family members to
complete strangers and scam artists. If we are timid by nature
and afraid to stand up
for ourselves, we might subconsciously push prosperity away because
we'd feel threatened by all the attention we would receive from
others who want a piece of our pie. Wealthy people need to be
shrewd, firm and confident about saying "No" when necessary.
Perspective - As mentioned above,
money will NOT solve all of our problems. When we don't have
any money, it's easy to convince ourselves that money holds much
more power than it really does. In its tangible form, money is
simply slips of paper and chunks of metal. It has no magical
abilities. We don't really want money, we want what money can
provide us with! Understanding that money is simply a form of
energy in
our lives, we can learn to welcome the ebb and flow of financial
abundance, and therefore attract more of it without being emotionally
attached to it.
Responsibility - Though this
is a hard thing to admit, we need to acknowledge the part we
play in our lack of financial resources. We need to examine our
own spending and saving habits. We need to look at the ways we
might be careless with the money we do have, and the ways we
set ourselves up to experience lack. If we live paycheck to paycheck
and never seem to have enough left over, we might need to explore
higher-paying jobs, or other avenues of income generation. We
might need to learn how to wisely invest our money so it will
grow, rather than continuously leak out of our budget. The truth
is, proper handling of the money we do have right now will encourage
more money to appear in our lives.
We need to remember that we create the quality of our own
lives, moment to moment, and it all begins with our thoughts.
If our lives don't resemble the lives we'd rather be living,
we can choose to examine the reasons for it, take responsibility
for our actions, and make a commitment to improving our circumstances.
While this can be a daunting task, how freeing it is to finally
understand that it's all within our control.
