I know that for me it took a lot of hard work, struggle and sacrifice for many years before I became willing to look at the beliefs that drove my behaviors about money and the attainment of it. In the past several months I have begun to do my best to eliminate the factor of money when it comes to what I want in life. The apparent lack mentality tend to shut the door of the imagination and doesn't allow one to see past the limitation it really is........

“before the concept of money was an idea I would state what I wanted and in some way shape or form I always got what I wanted!” Personally, I think that’s just the way to do it! One of today’s big problems is the focusing on the money instead of on the thing(s) desired. Best to figure out what you want and do what you can to bring it about and leave the rest to a higher power.

Thanks for the comment!

Greetings, Albert! It really *can* be difficult, but that’s because we don’t make it a long-standing habit. Two weeks or so ago, Philadelphia had its first snow fall. A light dusting coated the ground and more fell from the heavens as I trudged home that night. I started to complain about the undeniable coming of winter when I stopped and smiled remembering the story of a person who decided her favorite season was always the one we’re in. I took a new look at the extremely thin layer of snow, and it was beautiful!! Everything glittered and sparkled like diamonds! I looked up and saw that the snow also twinkled and glittered in the light of the street lamps on the way down.

For some reason that saying always makes me think about someone sitting cross legged in front of a mountain praying and occasionally shaking his fist :) I used to have a locket however in which I placed a couple of mustard seeds to remind me how simple the requirement was.
