Spiritual work: money

you are not done yetIn this article, I demonstrate what spiritual work is, through doing my own spiritual work… something I haven’t done, something that isn’t completed, but only started in this article.

What is money for you? Pennies? Dollars? numbers in the bank?

I caught myself this morning.

I, somewhere along the line, decided that money is coins.

As a kid, I collected coins in a wooden container. I stole coins from my parents’ coat pockets. I picked up coins from the dirt.

I felt rich. My brother envied me. The older brother I was in love with…

My mother called me a whore when I was three… and I associated it with money. Getting money.

My relationship to my parents could be told in the context of money.

7 steps to create ease and grace about making money?

dont-should-on-yourselfWhat does it take to have, make, save, invest, and spend money in a way that you end up enjoying it, benefiting from it, being enriched by money?

Before we can talk about money, we need to define what we mean by abundance… Abundance is a being that says: All is well with the world. Abundance is also an experience.

I don’t know anyone who lives in abundance, although all of us have experienced abundance for moments, minutes, hours… sometimes even days. Don’t kid yourself, rich people don’t live in abundance… every person I have ever checked, had some version of anxiety in them.

And yet… abundance is our birthright… we are hardwired for abundance. But because…

The path to growth, spiritually, vibrationally, financially, emotionally

i-can-do-it-babyNobody likes to be wrong. Nobody likes to strike out.

But real world examples show that winners are wrong a lot, and winners, champions, strike out a lot.

One of my spiritual practices is to strengthen my invented self: “I am someone who can.”

My soul correction is that I know everything… what that covers up is that I believe I can’t…

So the other spiritual practice is to strengthen my invented self: “I don’t know.”

Of course, when you don’t know, the MIND thinks that you also can’t. The other jump the mind makes is that when you make a mistake, when you make a wrong turn, when you strike out, then it means that you can’t…

For my soul correction everything wants to mean: I can’t.

More Money Workshop Part 7: God doesn’t have a thumb, you do

happiness-is-like-jamHere is an inspiring story. I found it on facebook, and edited it: I cut out god and Jesus and all the superstition that makes it a story to dumb you down.

Here is the story. Be prepared to be moved.

YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW

‘Good morning’ said a woman as she walked up to the man sitting on the ground.

The man slowly looked up.

This was a woman clearly used to the finer things of life. Her coat was new. She looked like she had never missed a meal in her life.

His first thought was that she wanted to make fun of him, like so many others had done before. ‘Leave me alone,’ he growled…

To his amazement, the woman continued standing.

Money Course Part 6: The biggest hindrance for your well-being, including your financial well-being

well-beingWhat is the biggest hindrance for your well-being, including your financial well-being?

And under well-being I include health, emotional health, relationship health, your whole existence.

I bet you can’t even imagine being well.

I remember when I tried, years ago, all I could see is running on a field and the wind blowing in my hair.

So, going towards well-being is not easy, because well-being is an experience that is empty. To the degree it is empty, to the same degree you are well.

Let me explain: wouldn’t you say that financial well-being would be and experience where nothing is missing, nothing is lacking?

More money Part 4: your relationship to money

Relationship-with-MoneyWhat is your relationship to money?

For the most part, your relationship to money, your attitude about money, is the same or similar, as your attitude about life. It is either powerful or it isn’t… and of course everything in between.

Raising the quality of your relationship to money is the exact same thing as raising your vibration. The moves are exactly the same. The higher vibration relationship will effect your money, your personal relationships, your success in any area of life, your health, and your experience of life: your level of fulfillment, purpose, joy, and happiness.

Of course, your understanding of what I just said is on the level of your current vibration… you want more stuff… right? You’ll see what it really means as you raise (increase) your vibration by climbing the Tree of Life, from branch to branch to branch, to as high as you can manage in this lifetime.

Money… grow it… Part 2… Take an Inventory

Money… grow it… Part 2… Take an Inventory

Most people start pretty much anything with the idea of what they want. That is the starting point, that is also, most of the time, the context.

But it is a default context, not empowering.

  • Empowering: gives you the power to be your best.
  • Not empowering: doesn’t effect your state of power.
  • Disempowering: Takes away your power to act well.

I said it this way in another article a year ago:

disempower is the opposite of empower. Empower means: allow and suggest that they have the power. Provide them with what they need to have the power.
Disempower is taking away what you already have.

What people consider as negative self-talk or negativity is in essence disempowering talk. You have the power, innately, to do the things that your heart says you can do.

You are never given a desire that you are not equipped to fulfill… so in essence, if you don’t fulfill on your desires, it means that either your self-talk or the talk of another disempowered you: you allowed some talk to convince you that you can’t and that you should not even go for it.

Of course, in the past year I have had a lot of insights that make the LANGUAGE of that article lying, but the fact remains: words cause beingness. Self-talk causes beingness… except when it is forced on the top of some fundamental self-talk that is largely unconscious.

If you are the alpha and the omega of things, if everything is about you, then you are going to be wretched. Or if you already are, you are going to stay that way.

The job is to get out of the default context and into something more empowering.

I looked at what the context inside which I have done what I have done the past two months, and I found this: “I want to do what I want to do, and I want to continue doing what I want to do, whatever that is… without interruption. Without having to do anything for it.”

And, obviously, my starting point to increasing revenues is the same… I just want to do…

Money: how to make more of it, how to keep more of it… a series. Part 1.

money is tightMoney is tight, and has been for the past six weeks. Why? I don’t know.

As my habit, if I don’t know something… I start experimenting, examining different avenues that promise to get one to a desired outcome… in this case a steady income.

I am going to adhere to certain rules

Rule #1: the goals need to be realistic: i.e. based in reality, not a pipe-dream. This means, taking into consideration all and all sorts of limitations… instead of what YOU normally do, ignore them.
Rule #2: I will keep in mind short term and long term goals, at the same time. Ignoring this rule is detrimental to your life, not just to your success.

I will examine all teachings, some I will test, some I will meditate over.

I’ll start with what I have already tested, if you don’t mind.

Money is tight around here

Greasing the chute… i.e. making money move.

What is the vibration of money? of abundance?

What is the vibration of money? of abundance?
what is the vibration of money?People want to know the vibration of money… I guess because ‘gurus’ say: get into the vibration of what you want.

Great sentence, except it doesn’t mean anything… and therefore it is impossible to follow.

But if, for a moment, I didn’t mock it, but started to look what it might mean that could be useful is this: although money doesn’t have vibration, it has some rules it follows, it has some strong likes and dislikes. And it is worth knowing those. Worth knowing if you intend to increase the amount of money that flows through you.
