MONEY! It sure is a hot button.
One worth resolving your issues around if
you’re interested in FREEDOM and PEACE of mind.
I used to be what I call a “spiritual snob” about money.
My values felt in conflict with it. I was one of those
people who thought it was just part of the evil system
that was perpetuating greed. I didn’t want to participate
in a paradigm that kept such a wide gap between the have’s
and have not’s.
BUT. That kept me broke. And you know what? I didn’t like
how that felt. I would stress and strain.
I felt unworthy.
I grappled with shame.
Besides feeling embarrassed about my money situation, I was
also an INEFFECTIVE change agent. I realized that I can’t do
as much good in the world if I’m still focusing on my own money
woes and constantly strategizing about how to pay my bills!
So, I devised a new plan to enter a domain of ease and
abundance!
It included:
1) Taking RESPONSIBILITY for my finances. Ah, nobody but me
got me into my mess. And nobody but me could get me out.
2) Changing my BELIEFS about money being in conflict with my
values. As I examined this more deeply, I could see how money
could actually elevate my values.
3) Building a “SACRED” relationship with money. Basically, this
means that I stopped acting like a victim to it and started
incorporating it into my spiritual path.
4) LETTING myself have more money! Yep, just needed to give myself
permission to leave struggle behind and thrive.
5) TEACHING other change leaders to make more money. One of my prayers
(when I was crying about my lack of money) was that whatever I learned
about creating financial freedom, I would share with others.
6) Creating a business model that incorporates PAYING IT FORWARD.
I don’t want to make more and more money just because my ego needs
a false sense of security. I want to be part of the solution on this
planet. Having more money gives me the privilege to contribute more.
I’m curious…
* How’s your relationship with money?
* What of the 6 changes I made above resonate with you?
* What changes will you make to create more freedom with money?
With all that I am,
