Wealth Is Neutral
An Instrument of Change

by Madisyn Taylor

As a form of potential energy that empowers us to generate change, money is neither good nor bad.


At its most basic, money is a tool that enables us to meet our individual needs. As a form of potential energy that empowers us to generate change, it is neither good nor bad. Yet many people react emotionally to issues concerning finances, unconsciously condemning currency itself, the manner in which money is spent, and people who live lives of financial abundance. Individuals who are rich in gifts such as high intelligence are acknowledged for their positive traits while those who have acquired material riches or aspire to become wealthy are frequently judged harshly. However, wealth is not a trait upon which judgment can be legitimately passed. It tells us nothing about how a person lives, what they believe in, whom they care for, or the scope of their values. Like any blessing, wealth is merely an instrument of purpose that can be used both constructively and destructively.

From an early age, people learn to court wealth while simultaneously associating money with greed, selfishness, and unethical behavior. Consequently, this idea becomes entrenched in their hearts as envy. To attain a balanced and rational comprehension of money, as well as a fairer perspective of wealth, we need to recognize that outward manifestations of wealth tell us little about the individuals enjoying those blessings. When we feel the finger of jealousy prompting us to draw unflattering conclusions about people whose lives seem more financially secure than our own, we should remind ourselves that there are many elements of their circumstances we cannot see. Their wealth may be the result of long hours of taxing labor, they may donate a large percentage of their resources to charitable causes, or their bounty may be an incidental aspect of a life spent doing what they love. Ultimately, we can heal our hurtful associations with money by turning a blind eye toward both wea! lth and poverty when interacting with others and instead focusing on the individual before us.

If you take a moment to consider you own feelings regarding money and wealth, you may discover that you equate financial prosperity with happiness, power, security, independence, or self-indulgence. Money itself, however, is none of these things. You can begin developing a healthier view of wealth by simply accepting that while some possess great wealth and others do not, we all have the potential to create lives of beauty, substance, and wisdom using the resources we have been granted.

    Cancer Horoscope: Decoding Procrastination

    Decoding Procrastination
    Cancer Daily Horoscope

    A laidback mood can be a sign of exhaustion today. If you find yourself unable to concentrate on the tasks you have laid out for yourself, you may be tempted to put everything aside so that you can spend some time indulging in recreational pursuits. However, if your schedule is full and you feel an obligation to address your obligations, procrastination can make you feel even worse about the manner in which you are using your time today. You may be able to relax while still working through your agenda by prioritizing your roster of duties and focusing only on those tasks that are vital to your wellbeing.

    Periods of procrastination are often indicative of an unfulfilled need to rest and relax in between duties. We tend to move from obligation to obligation without stopping to breathe because we have so much we have to do and a limited amount of time at our disposal. When we become overwhelmed by our overfull schedules, we tend to feel tired and unfocused, and the resultant inability to concentrate appears to be nothing more than irresponsibility. However, it is when we are most prone to laziness that we should examine our agendas because we may discover that we have undertaken far more than any one person should take on in a day. As we put realistic limitations on our schedules, we become better able to focus on whatever needs doing. You will be less likely to procrastinate today when the tasks you have assigned yourself are manageable.

    The Secret to Attracting Wealth

    The Secret to Attracting Wealth
    Kelly Howell
    2008

    Kelly Howell has made effective sound healing, subliminal message and guided imagery CDs, all to great success and proven effectiveness. With her husky, commanding yet sensual voice measuring each word for maximum psychological effect, and her use of harmonically layered frequencies second to none, Howell is the guide you need to bypass and dismantle your self-defeating psychic mechanisms. When resistance to change and uncertainty ends, the road to wealth begins. Material wealth has its roots in the spiritual the same as any other blessing, and can be used for great good socially as well as personally. "It is your right and duty to be happy in life but you must choose it," Howell notes. The Secret to Attracting Wealth is Howell's offer to help you choose it on such a deep "super-conscious" level that reality can't help but manifest it.

    Listen with headphones, so the harmonically layered music can balance both white and left hemispheres to put you in a theta wave state of mind. Theta waves are those that create the same mental frequencies produced during meditation, like de-hypnosis, a shortcut on the long road to inner peace. Howell notes that "in clinical research, theta is recognized as the super learning state, a hyper-suggestible state for reprogramming all levels of consciousness." The second track is a half-hour guided meditation that begins "at the base of a mountain," and covers three obstacles to be overcome on the road to success: "The theta waves present an opportunity to release barriers from the conscious, unconscious and super-conscious mind."

    Howell's masterfully embedded subliminal messages take over in the third track, which accompanies the soothing music and pulsing thetas. The music itself displays a masterful use of drones that help the thetas open you to accepting new ideas on a "divine light" level. Part of Howell's Subliminal Reprogramming series, The Secrets to Attracting Wealth should be listened to in a seated, relaxed meditation position, with headphones on and eyes closed. Let the waves work to align the hemispheres of your brain and allow the space for reprogramming to occur. Work with the CD regularly and then when opportunity presents itself, don't be surprised when not only does opportunity knock, but you have the wherewithal to recognize it, and the courage to accept it, and thrive.
