To truly be successful one must do so without hurting someone else. If you sell someone something it should have intrinsic value to the user, worth more than the money received for the item.

Our lives are all centered on what we attract into our circle. If we dwell upon a negative subject such as disease or poverty then we will attract disease or poverty. In a recent study 41% those who believe they will not have a heart attack or stroke have not had one. If the truth were known, the 59% that say they believe have some doubt in their mind or they would not have a heart attack or stroke.

If you work to alleviate the suffering of the poverty stricken by donating to charity all you accomplish is to perpetuate their suffering. It is like the old parable “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him to fish and you feed him for life.” Therefore if you teach the poor how to have affluence you will end their suffering permanently. If you add to the belief that they can only live by handouts you perpetuate that belief.

In order to become successful a person, focus on the life you want to live. If you want to live in a nice home, wear fine clothes, drive a nice car and go on a cruise, envision yourself doing these things. Believe they have already been created for you and are going to be delivered to you soon. The method of the delivery is not important. If you have FAITH the means for them to be manifested into your life will be revealed. However, any negativity or doubt in your mind, either consciously or subconsciously will stop the process from being fulfilled.

It should be a constant request that you think about. Know that the universe wants you to be happy, enjoying the many things offered to us. Since money is necessary for us to experience all of these things it will come to you. There is plenty for us all. There is no need to compete for it or to steal it. All that is necessary is to attract it to you.

We are all connected that is why competitiveness is so completely wrong, but it is how we are first taught to survive. It is what we learn in school through grades and athletics, but there are two worlds, the world without and the world within. We have struggled all our lives trying to control the world without and the competitiveness that it entails through physical manipulation. This is the wrong way to control the world without, because the world without is really determined by the world within. For centuries man dreamed of flying but it wasn’t possible until someone actually brought it into being with thought. The Wright brothers thought up the idea used that idea to build the first airplane and the rest is history. Every invention you can think of was not possible until someone had an idea. They put that thought into action and voila it came to pass. And it is not only with inventions that this is true. Every facet of our world is the result of someone’s thought or idea.

Instead of believing in a world where competitiveness reigns supreme, I put it to you that those who are actually in charge are the ones that are creating the world without by controlling their world within. The Bill Gates’ of the world who have manifested their world from within through creativeness and not competitiveness. Competitiveness only serves to tear someone down. Whenever there is a competition there is a winner, but there are many losers. When someone wins the Super Bowl there is only one winner and the rest of the teams in the NFL are losers. Granted football is fun to watch, but the premise of the whole thing is designed to make one team feel good and the other 31 teams feel bad. So if you take it further there are 45 members on each team plus the coaching staff and owner, which makes it nearly 60 people. So you get 60 happy men and 1,860 men who feel like failures. This doesn’t even take in the amount of dejected fans that root for their team. How is this possibly ever going to help our world achieve oneness? How is this ever going to make everyone of us happy?
