Financial Security??

Are you seeking or have you achieved financial security? What do the words mean to you? Do you know someone who is financially secure?

In truth these words are probably one of the biggest fabrications that has been used to brainwash us. Financial security is not a real thing. Security cannot come from or be based on financial things. Money is energy and therefore has an impetus to flow, transform and change. If we are looking to money (or any external thing) for security, we will always be left wanting.

Loving Work

Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.
Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet


Why do you do the work that you do? Is it for the money? Do you love what you do? Please give this question some serious consideration and answer honestly, because you must understand that the answer is critically important to your experience of wealth. Love is not something that comes to us from outside ourselves. Love is an internal orientation to the world, a posture from which we have gratitude and appreciation for the details of our life.

Story Time

Are your stories facilitators of your dreams or heavy baggage that prevents you from moving forward and living life fully?

What are the stories you tell yourself about money, your life and God? We are creatures created for sole purpose transformation, and yet we have this inner need to find some stability to which we can cling. Unfortunately, for most of us this takes the form of holding on to narratives about our lives and ourselves that are no longer serving us well. Inevitably either for our benefit or detriment, our experiences are radically shaped by the stories we tell ourselves. These deep-seated beliefs that we carry with us in every moment are not necessarily the “truth” about us, but they become our reality.
