Poverty - The Most Successful Thief

Poverty is a thief! In fact, poverty is the most successful thief of all time, simply because it continues to rob without consequences. Poverty is by definition - the state of being inferior in quality or extremely poor. In other words poverty is a state of not ever being enough or having enough. From this place absolutely nothing is ever seen correctly, because its view is completely out of alignment with this universe and the creator of it and us. Below are some symptoms of poverty.

Symptoms Of A State of Poverty

Confidence is missing

Feeling that someone else should help you for life to change

Hopelessness in life

Limited in all things

Feelings of inadequacies

Excuses as to why you can't do better

Looking for hand-outs

Habitual procrastination

Lack of responsibility

No hope or plan for a brighter future

Blaming others for state

Feelings of uneasiness or resentment when someone mentions money

Jealousy towards those who have money

Victim mentality

Waiting for someone to come to the rescue

Taking shortcuts to success

Lack of belief in self

Finding excuses for not doing better

The word "can't" is use when asked about living one's dream

Many people are unaware that they are in a state of poverty; and worse still some people know they are in a state of poverty and have accepted that it is all they will ever have. There are some extreme cases of poverty, which need to be eradicated through immediate help, but not without re-education, as without the awareness of who we are as spiritual/human beings, poverty will still exist even with help. Let those of us who are able take up our bed and walk, so that we may help those who are truly vulnerable.

I'm not saying there aren't some situations that are really difficult, but if you feel you are doomed to poverty then you are less likely to see anything else.

In order to release poverty you have to understand who you are in relation to poverty. It is only the realisation of how wealthy you are that can release poverty's hold on you.

Poverty is a blatant thief and if you intend to chop off the hands of poverty in your life then you need to cut all agreements with it. Refuse to have any dealings with it. No matter how tough it may look, remember that poverty is the most successful thief and that it will not stop taking from you until you stop it. Be willing to let go of the excuses and alibis you have created to defend your circumstances. Be willing to open your mind-set to understand exactly what poverty has been able to do in your life up until this point; and then from that place find the abundant thought. Get help if you have to, just refuse to line up with something that will rob your purpose and fulfilment in life.

Begin to line up with your spirit that will always affirm who you are, even if that voice is ever so faint; listen to it and align with it. Also put yourself under the teachings of those who can help you free yourself from poverty's grip. Take responsibility of becoming free from this robber. Empower yourself by taking a stand today and saying goodbye to poverty and embracing the abundant life that you are.

Give poverty its marching boots and embrace your abundance today!

There are many keys to success like, getting our mindset open for it, having persistence and being around people who are thinking like we think and having someone on our side whose only motive is to see us operate in your full potential.

Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway

Feeling fear whenever you are thrusting yourself outside your comfort zone is a natural response. The challenge is to know when fear is justified and a reason to stop or when fear is just a normal part of the success journey and an opportunity for you to use the fear to sharpen your senses, where you confront the fear and go ahead anyway. When fear is justified, for example where you may be entering into a contractual agreement with someone that is less than trustworthy, it is crucial to listen to your inner voice and to use the fear you feel to protect yourself. On the other hand, any time you thrust yourself into unchartered territory, where you are pushed outside your self-imposed comfort zone, you will feel fear too. The challenge is to know when fear is real and justified and when it is just your natural desire to seek comfort and avoid pain. Super achievers have mastered this art and they very quickly identify whether fear is justified or whether it is just a normal fear that they are feeling because they are taking a calculated risk and are pushing the boundaries of their comfort zone. You need to invest time to develop this art, where you can very quickly tell if fear is justified or whether it is just your natural aversion to inviting some risk into your life. Feeling fear is a natural protection mechanism that is built into your brain to protect you from any pending danger. The way to enter the realm of super achievement is to very quickly know whether fear is justified or not and to confront your fear, where you feel the fear and go ahead anyway or when to realise that your fear is real and you must take action to avoid the danger. You can never get rid of your fear, but you can learn the art of confronting your fear and using it to your advantage. For example: Your fear of ignorance can be used to generate inspiration to constantly grow your knowledge. Your fear of poverty can be used to inspire you to work a little harder. Your fear of disease can inspire you to take better care of your body. The fear of losing your family can inspire you to remain faithful, work a little harder and show them love as often as possible. The secret to becoming and remaining a super achiever is to learn the art of quickly identifying the difference between harmful or justified fear or helpful fear or unjustified fear. As soon as you make the shift toward understanding how to use fear to your advantage you turn something that can be very limiting and restrictive into an asset that you can use to create massive success in your life. Once you have learnt the art of knowing when fear is real and justified or when it is just a natural response to your attachment to stability, it is time to introduce the art of daily discipline into your life. As Roy L Smith said "Discipline is the refining fire by which talent becomes ability." Daily discipline is the key to unlock your potential and to turn you into a high performance human being, who operates at levels of super achievement. Positive self-discipline, where you commit to carry out all the tasks you need to each day, puts you firmly in the driver's seat and over time, these consistent efforts will turn into the success you desire. Yes success does require a commitment to daily discipline and an investment of some of your valuable time, which will cost you something small each day. Failure on the other hand requires nothing from you each day, but the price you will pay in the long run will be massive. What choice do you want to make with your future?

A Simple Formula For Overcoming Worry and Fear

If you ask most people why they have not achieved their goals or the level of success they desire, they will usually respond with some built-in excuse (negative belief) that is holding them back. Underlying this excuse or negative belief is usually a fear or worry. How many times have you attempted something new, only to stop before you ever got started because you were afraid of what others may think? Or you don't think you have the time or money or both? Or because you believe are inexperienced or lack the knowledge to succeed? Someone once defined F.E.A.R. as False Evidence Appearing Real, which means we have chosen to believe in something that is not really true. But because it is our belief, it is our reality. Worry is nothing more than a sustained fear caused by indecision. Sometimes we need to ask some tough questions to determine the cause of these worries or fears. Once the fear is identified, a simple formula can be used to overcome that fear. The first step is to clearly define what you are afraid of or worried about. Write in down. Put in on paper. Half of your worries and fears will be solved the instant you can define them clearly by putting them on paper. What once seemed big in your mind will look small and insignificant on paper. For the other half, you need to move on to step two. Ask yourself, what is the worst possible thing that can happen if this fear or worry becomes true? Make a list, yes, write it down on paper underneath your clearly defined worry. Keep writing down everything that comes to mind until you have identified the worst possible outcome. Do you realize that 90% of what we worry about never happens? Think about how much time you spend on worrying about stuff that never will happen. This list will help you see that. Once you have completed your list, resolve in your mind that you will accept the worst possible thing that can happen. Since 90% of those things will never occur and generally the other 10% will not kill you, realize you will survive. Accept the worst possible thing by telling yourself, I can handle it, over and over again. This will start to turn things around. Finally, begin now to make sure the worst never happens. Put together an action plan of exactly what you need to do to turn things around. By focusing on positive changes and implementing your action plan, your focus will shift to the positive outcomes and away from your fears. You will begin to feel better because now you can DO SOMETHING! Positive action is the only cure for fear and worry. Try this formula today and see if it will work for you. It has worked for me.
