He literally jumped on his seat as I told him that his projects would surely make him very good money. It was like if I had offended him.<\/p>\n<p>You see, there are these long sold stereotypes &#8220;made up&#8221; by religious groups and people with power to oppress the masses: <em>&#8220;Poverty and suffering are virtues&#8221;; &#8220;only the poor will go to Heaven&#8221;; &#8220;money is the origin of all evil&#8221;<\/em>, and we can go on and on this way.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Note: First of all, <a href=\"http:\/\/mindspiritmotion.com\/wp_admin\/heaven\/2009\/01\/12\/good-news-life-has-no-end\/\" target=\"_self\">heaven is open for everybody (read here),<\/a> whether you&#8217;re poor or rich or anything; as long as you want to, heaven is yours. And this has absolutely no relationship with your material achievements on this planet.<br \/>\nSecond of all, some political tendencies and even Robin Hood promote taking away from the rich to give to the poor because it&#8217;s way easier than empowering the poor in a nation to achieve a realistic goal of prosperity in an area of their best skills. Mother Theresa said something like: don&#8217;t take people out of poverty, take poverty out of people&#8217;s minds. That means hard work.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>There are so many people who want a nice house with a garden, in a beautiful place. I ask you, if you have no resources and having money is so bad, how on earth are you going to make your dreams turn into reality? It&#8217;s good to have money, and <strong>it&#8217;s OK to be prosperous<\/strong>. Living only for money or living in bad conditions because of the lack of it is not OK.<\/p>\n<p>I read <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0553583182?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=mindspiritmot-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0553583182\">The Power of Your Subconscious Mind<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=mindspiritmot-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=0553583182\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/> from Dr. Joseph Murphy quite a long time ago, it&#8217;s a book about affirmative prayer and working on your mind, and it literally changed my relationship to money and wealth.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This change in your relationship with money and wealth is the first step to heal your mind of erroneous concepts. Wealth is not only money matters; wealth is abundance in all areas, but mostly in <strong>freedom of action<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Freedom of action! Doesn&#8217;t it sound good? It sure does to me.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not rich but I&#8217;m expanding each day more. Each day I work towards winning freedom of action in every way possible. And money is a part of it; that&#8217;s why I go to work. But money is not my only motor: I love my job very much. To work and earn money in an area I love is a freedom I hunted down and achieved. I gained in quality of life, I feel blessed!<\/p>\n<p>How can you get to feel this way? Work with yourself everyday; work on your concepts of abundance, money and wealth:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The principle of life is towards growth, evolution and expansion. The universe is abundant and generous. So, your life grows, evolves and expands; your life is abundant and generous.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li> You should be happy, healthy and prosperous. It is your right to be wealthy and free of material barriers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li> Try repeating to yourself several times a day these powerful words: &#8220;FREEDOM&#8221; and &#8220;WEALTH&#8221; independently from each other.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Being aware of these points and repeating the last two powerful words will change the patterns by which you live and see life. Most people live in the world of &#8220;without&#8221; or &#8220;I don&#8217; have&#8221;: change your state of mind to a more constructive and satisfying one.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Decide to live in &#8220;Wealth and Freedom&#8221;; you&#8217;ll see that it feels very good to be conscious of the treasures we have in our everyday life, one feels grateful for life. It&#8217;s definitely one of the best feelings and surely one of the many sources of happiness.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0553583182?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=mindspiritmot-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0553583182\">The Power of Your Subconscious Mind,<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=mindspiritmot-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=0553583182\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/>there&#8217;s a statement to repeat several times a day, it&#8217;s a scientific or affirmative prayer that can help you to have a better relationship with money. I quote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I like money\u2026I use it wisely, constructively and judiciously. Money is constantly circulating in my life. I release it with joy, and it returns to me multiplied in a wonderful way. It is good and very good. Money flows to me in avalanches of abundance.\u00a0 I use it for good only, and I am grateful for my good and for the riches of my mind.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Be consequent, I can tell out of personal experience that Affirmative Praying does work wonders.
