Heal your relationship with money

Heal your relationship with money

If you want to succeed, it is important to have a positive attitude toward money. Maybe you're feeling shy of what you want to have more money? Perhaps you associate wealth with greed, selfishness and materialism? Or believe that being poor is more spiritual? Perhaps you underestimate your abilities and do not need them for decent pay? Or do you think that you should not pay for work that well and you enjoy? You do not limit yourself to only low-paid work? Maybe you can give money to charity just because of feelings of guilt? Do you believe that if you have more money then others will become less of? If so, then you need to reconsider their attitude to money!

Yes, of course, money can be used to make bombs, prison bars, or deadly chemicals, but there is no fault of money itself. They can ensure the production of clean drinking water, construction of homes and preservation of forests. With the money, finally, we can just have fun and enjoy life. Money - only form of energy, it is neutral on its merits.

If you are a puritan or have mixed feelings about money, some parts of yourself will attract money, and others - should be repelled. You can attract sudden good fortune, then you find that you need to repair the car and check to pay for the repair of your car just would amount to so suddenly slumped to you. You'll find a job with a salary that barely fit in your "comfort zone", or money will ever end, no sooner do you. Thus, you can never make sense of abundance in your home.

If you think that money and spirituality are incompatible (as most people think), you can come to the conclusion that healing and spiritual work of people do not have to be paid as a "gift from God." This will lead you to believe that in this case another job, for example, a salesperson, carpenter or a dentist - not a gift of God!(Only our ego can come to this conclusion.) Similarly, if we consider the job as service to others, we can go to martyrs or workaholism as "service" can mean self-sacrifice and self-denial.

Or we can prove our dignity that we give our strength and ability to serve others. Then we get up in front of the wrong choice: whether to find a decent job or another high-paying, but then we begin to develop feelings of guilt, because we will get a lot of money. As I see it, no job is not special. Every job is a gift of God, and the money - it's a way to maintain balance in life by giving them in exchange for someone's ability, experience and time. It's like a dialogue, where there is mutual consent, "Thank you" - "I am grateful to you for the offer."

But the money is nothing spiritless, and in poverty - nothing spiritual. When we are poor, we need to focus on survival, so do not have the time and energy to spiritual growth. Lack of money limits our lives, putting pressure on family and friends. It also means that many doors are a variety of opportunities for us to shut down. If you are a monk (or nun), you can prosper without money, because meeting your needs will still be satisfied. But for most people money is an important tool in order to lead happy and fulfilling life. (Of course, a life whose goal is production of money is not included here!) Money - the source, not the goal of life.

Prosperity - our natural birthright, and I believe in what we do not finish their mission on earth, if we learn to live a flourishing and do not create wealth in your home. Of course, this does not mean that we necessarily have to be rich! But we should have enough money so that we can follow his dream, no matter what we mean: the purchase of books, travel to China, re-planning of the garden, or hang-gliding lesson in life is his own cottage. We must have a sense of boundless freedom and access to any sources necessary to meet our soul's purpose and create their own paradise on earth.
