Shift to a wealth of health



The process is the same.  The process is universal.  You can use it in health,wealth, education, business or spiritual growth.  First, seek wisdom and understanding.  First, seek the kingdom of God in you. First, acknowledge your oneness with humanity and everything else.  Then release that which has served you lovingly so that you may embrace the next blessing.

No risk, pay the cost. Know risk, reap the rewards. You would be well advised to give credence to this quote picked up from an introduction to Dr. Ben Carson's book,Take the Risk: Learning to Identify, Choose, and Live with Acceptable Risk. This is in my opinion very sound advice. Not only because of Dr. Carson's success at great risk do I say this. Dr. Carson and I have communicated at least on 3 occasions albeit ever so briefly. His impact was immense.
After evaluating risk and potential return, recognize that you have response ability (get it? thanks to the late Stephen Covey for that one). Should you go back to school, start that business, call that contact, take that chance? Step out on faith and go for it with sustained, enthusiastic rigor. YOU CHOOSE! No risk or KNOW risk. and remember... "When you pray for rain, carry your umbrella." Expectation can tip the scales in your favor.

Put Your Money to Work Before it Flies Away

It's not just what you earn, it's what you learn! What will you do with your earnings? Learn how to prioritize and plan. Learn how to employee your money. How much will you keep and grow?

Will you take your time and choose before you spend or let the media choose for you? Be conscious, be awake. I've seen the bottom fall out and I have learned that even when times are tough, if you are awake, opportunity awaits. Put your money to work before it flies away. Enjoy resources at this link and if you like, pass it on.

Get Audacious!

If you have been around much at all you have likely heard something like, "He had the nerve to believe he could..." or "She had the audacity to think she would..." You can fill in the blank, "get that job", "start that business", "when the election..." etc. etc. I don't know how they fared, but one thing is certain, these "audacious" people likely moved well beyond the naysayers who, by the way, tend to just hide in the bushes and watch.

Sometimes you will hear, "Wait until the weather breaks...
until your ship comes in... till you get a little more experience... Just wait!" Now sometimes that may be good advice. Look at where you are and be certain that you are not operating out of fear and looking for an excuse not to TRY!

More often than not, "Going for it," can provide you with a level of insight and experience that is unparalleled even when not victorious, and, you never know. It just might happen. You may surprise a few people.

Life truly comes at you fast. Don't play it so safe that you wind up looking back and thinking "If I wish I could, I would, I should have... Be audacious! Have the audacity to believe you can. All the successful and fulfilled people I know or know of have tried and even failed but they kept on until they hit the mark. And you know what?

They set new trails to blaze and new targets to hit. don't blow your life savings or anything. Just take a chance. Henry David Thoreau wrote,
"If one advances confidently in the direction of one's dreams, and endeavors to live the life which one has imagined, one will meet with a success unexpected in uncommon hours."
