Is Wealthy Escaping You?

Interesting comment made by a Spanish Distiller was, The good life is expensive. There is another way to live that doesn’t cost as much but it isn’t any good.

Don’t let yourself get discouraged that the good life costs a lot of money in modern day’s fast-moving, materialistic world. If you really want, you can experience the joys of living the good life. It starts with a definite decision, then you must begin to make important changes in your life. Remember, money does not make you happy; however, it will indeed help you live a comfortable lifestyle.

It is very common, and unfortunate, for poor individuals to tell others that money is not important but doing good for others is. Often, the response from the others is, “Yes, I agree with that. It’s noble to want to do good.”

In 1903, Wallace D. Wattles wrote, “The Science of Getting Rich.” Wattles reply to such statements was, “If you want to do good, get rich first.”

That may sound cynical, but Wattles was right! The good you can do without money will be limited to your physical presence at any given time. However, when you have an abundance of money, you are able to provide service to others in places far beyond your own physical presence.

Regardless of your education, background or financial status, you can have all the money you desire by earning it. Most people are ignorant of this fact. Unfortunately, many of us were raised with the idea that the rich are lucky, blessed, fortunate or they inherited their money. It is possible that these ideas describe some people; however, many are wealthy because they consciously chose and deliberately decided to actualize the riches!

If wealth is something that has escaped you up to this point in your life, you are not alone. Wealth has escaped the majority of our population. Traditionally, schools have not taught us anything about earning money. And, for the most part, neither have our parents. Why? Simply, they do not know how.

Earning money is like any other skill — it must be learned and honed! Make up your mind today that you are going to break away from the pack and learn the facts about money and attaining wealth.
