The Prosperity in Pain

Yet it’s helpful to recognize that much of the pain you experience is self-imposed. And often it is the bitter-tasting medicine that you need to heal yourself.

The title above references self-imposed poverty, but it could also read self-imposed sickness, failure, or misery. Because preventing yourself from becoming wealthy, healthy, successful, or happy all arise from the same root cause.

Why You Love to Hate Rich People

On a singular level, we love to hate characters like Logan Roy and JR Ewing because then we can tell ourselves, “Obviously rich people are evil. I sure am glad I’m one of the noble, spiritual, good-hearted poor people.” Or as Peter Parker’s uncle tells him in the original Spiderman movie that started the franchise, “We may not be rich. But at least we’re honest.”

Money-Grubbing, Rich A$$holes

All you need to know to determine if a book, TV show, or movie is going to be a breakout hit, is to determine if it panders to a majority of people’s limiting beliefs.

Breaking News, Painted Donkeys, and Buddhist Monks with Attitude

From a prosperity standpoint, here’s the most important thing to remember: there are lots more countries not at war than at war, lots more people doing good things than bad things, and most zoos have a real zebra. But you’ll only be aware of all the great, positive and beneficial things happening around you if you seek them out and create channels where you’re exposed to them.

Work with Love or Quit

All work is an opportunity to learn new skills, evolve as a person, and contribute to something bigger than you. This is true if you are running a charitable foundation or working the drive-thru window at a fast food restaurant. I come from the Kahlil Gibran school of thought on work. Work with love or quit and beg for donations from people who do.

Put Down the Cross, We Need the Wood…

Just don’t actually live that way. Let it go.

Ask Better Questions

If we break it down to its essence, critical thinking is having the discernment to intelligently process information. Process it in a way that is relevant to your desired results. And that means asking the right questions.
