subject: Those Looking For Financial Wealth Are Not Necessarily Greedy [print this page] There is value to be found in a life lived without materialism. But there's a difference between materialistic gluttony and seeking the financial prosperity you need to provide for your family, and recognizing that is a vital step in following the path to success laid down before you.
Prosperity and Materialism are not Identical Concepts
Before beginning the journey to financial success, it helps to comprehend the difference between prosperity and gluttony. The difference is concerned with your actions and motivations.
Before you listen to another self-help audio book, before you pray to win the lottery, and before you invest in another business opportunity, I want you to stop. Ask yourself, "Why am I doing this?"
The answer that comes to you may surprise you. Hardly anyone goes after prosperity because they want to sit around and do nothing for the rest of their lives. Wealth for wealth's sake is not their motivation. The motivation behind achieving financial success is rooted firmly in the desire to live out their lives free of the stress that comes with not having money to pay bills, to buy food or put a roof over theirs and their family's heads.
When you have money worries, there is no way you can relax and enjoy your family. You will fight with your spouse and you will have to forgo spending time with friends at a night out because you can't afford the gas, the tickets or the dinner. You don't have the resources to give back to your community and share with your favorite charity as you would like to do.
If Relieving Monetary Stress is your Goal, you have Opportunities at your Disposal
You will find a path to success. It will not involve winning the state lottery. Each one of us has a pleasant life ahead if we only know where to look.
Life will always be full of tough decisions. Some people go through life pleased in knowing that the glass is half full; others spend a lifetime lamenting that it's half-empty. The truth is there is some water in the glass. It is almost never completely full or completely empty. That would be too easy. Now your only job is to decide how you perceive that glass and follow your faith.
Call it kismet, call it the Force, call it your inner substance with keys to the cosmos. Whatever you call it, your beliefs will lead you where you want to go. The only thing standing between you and success is you.
