Wealth And The Pursuit Of Financial Freedom
Author : Donald Yartes
Is Financial Freedom for the Masses?
Financial freedom Has different meanings for different folks. What does it mean too you? Does it mean being free from a job that is going nowhere, credit cards, house payments or just the burden of making ends meet? To some it means giving more to the Church, School, community, or where ever a need lies. Or, it may simply mean freedom from a particular burden? Just think, no more financial worries, or anxieties.
But wait - why arent you wealthy now? What has been holding you back? Perhaps you are not willing to do what is necessary for wealth? What price are you willing to pay? What are you willing to do now that you were not willing to do yesterday? What has changed? Are you more desperate, mature, willing, when you woke up this morning? Why do you believe you can do it now, when you didnt in times past?
Hogwash! Youre not ready! Until you can stand and make a declaration of independence
Self-Help Programs Dont Work
I have seen and you have also, there thousands of self-help programs, articles, books, magazines, conferences and so on available to the public. I bought several programs myself in my youth. It doesnt matter how much information is available, people wont listen or pay attention. They may have good intentions and truly want to change, but unless there is some sort of stimulus, they wont change. Many people say, Yes, I will do what I have to do" but when the going gets tough, they fold like a wet rag. They have no imagination; their attitude doesn't match their mouth. They cant handle nor do they want to face change. They are comfortable in what they do. Day in and day out they follow their self made, hollow avenues of mediocrity. They look at the person of wealth and claim its beyond their grasp, so they dont even try. What if, what if . . . I fail! Everyone would laugh and jeer, I, I wouldnt be able to face them my family, friends, co workers. I would loose face, everyone would think I was a joke.
Whos Paying the Bills?
When was the last time your friends offered to pay your bills? When was the last time your friends put something in the offering plate . . . in your name? Chances are, the answer is never. You are responsible for you, not your friends, family or co workers. They might come to the rescue if you were drowning but I assure you, they will turn away at the mere mention of money. Your success is in your hands, alone.
You must be stimulated
The pursuit of Wealth is not so much in having the right information as it is in personal ambition. All the information in the world will not help a person with no ambition. It takes an internal stimulus to change the outside character. You must have internal desire, for whatever reason, but it must come from the heart. Why should you make a change at this particular time in your life? Family, spouse, God, self improvement; why should you change? Why should you pursue and dedicate yourself to a principle you didnt believe in before? Another thing, dont let outside influences become your driving force, they wont last. I cant say that to be true one hundred percent of the time. There are many stories of people who excelled in their fields because of a very influential Grandmother. Unless you have a supportive person in your life, you will have to do it on your own.
You must be able to dream
Dreams are good, they excite the soul. Once your dreams are stimulated, you can then assess what changes that must be made within you so you can accept them as yours. Then and only then is when you can begin to focus on the process of application, as you set them into your personal foundation for success. Without a foundation, a hard rock starting point, you will always be in danger of slipping back into oblivion. You must know why you are willing to sacrifice for wealth and be willing to take the first step. .
You must define your ambition
First, define what wealth means to you. Wealth has a different meaning for different people. As we discussed before, you must believe in your rationality. Don't make the mistake of making your spouse's or your parent's ideas of success, your own. Success is a personal commitment. It's what moves you, inspires you, triggers your emotions, motivates you, and brings out the true you. Its between you and a deeper principle within your soul guiding, prodding, and coxing you toward your destiny. It wakes you from the dead and stimulates life into your inner being so you may pursue greatness. What matters is what is your most personal desire, what sets you on fire? Do you awake each morning with a new, invigorating purpose for being and cant wait to get started? The day is yours and it is high time you clamed it.
Your must be focused
You cant see the goal if your not focused. Oh you might know its there, but you wont have a clear picture of it. You have been looking at the target through a fog. You must clear the air and get focused on the task at hand. Thats why higher learning facilities get paid so much, they teach people how to focus. You cant hit the target without first focusing on it.
"Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and griefs which we endure help us in our marching onward."
- Henry Ford
Until the next time . . .
