“Insanity consists of this: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
-- Albert Einstein
Did you know that most people do not think? That we but follow patterned thoughts, which generate associated actions? Is there anything beyond what we were taught to be ‘the right thing to do’? Truth be told, when we step out of the patterns that we have known all of our lives, fear strikes. It is the unknown. This applies to every aspect of your life. You may have chosen your profession and certain parts of your life, but what were those choices based upon? How often do we choose to marry a pattern matching that of at least one of our parents? Or recreate a family pattern so that we may grow out of it? If you wish to create different results, are you willing to recognize your patterns so that you may take some steps out of at least one of them now? Are you willing to walk through the fears that stepping out of the box may unleash? Remember that when something appears big and fearful, at the end of it lies a most beautiful gift for you. Go ahead and dare, it’s worth it!
Quantum physics teaches us that we are in a world of endless possibilities of movements of the consciousness. Can you imagine that we have access to 400,000 bits of information per minute but process only 2,000? So, what does that mean? Why should ‘I’ care? You should care because whatever you choose to focus on, you will create. A reality that is either rich in laughter, happiness, love, abundance, or not. It is really up to you.
What better way to begin our focus today than on money – the world wide tool, without which you cannot function in this society. Most of you are probably working for your money – that is what we were taught. Can you imagine that money could work for you instead? That there are ways to generate a legitimate income, without exchanging your time and effort for it?
A passive income is an income that you generate without doing anything, no sales, no nothing! Before reaching that point where you could live only from your passive income, you must change your thoughts. Maybe you’re there already! But, if you belong to the working body like most people do, here is some food for thought for you. Did you know that we have approximately 90,000 thoughts per day, and that most of those are either revolving around the same issues, or are destructively going in circles? Changing those patterned thoughts will help you reach the goal that you have set for yourself. Therefore, the first question to ask yourself is, “Do I know what I want to create in my life?”. If the answer is no, start digging, because it is the first step toward realizing your dreams. Once you know, bringing the goal to you, traveling with it everyday is the second step. Embracing all the experiences that it may bring to you will manifest your goals faster. Resistance, based on your fear, will slow the process. You may go at whatever speed you choose, but just be aware that discomfort may not be a bad thing. It is the discomfort of stepping into the still unknown.
Now that you know what you want, when and where – guess what? The greater design, that you are part of, will eventually comply with you. Don’t give up, just breathe your goal, and walk with it until you see it so clearly that it is undoubtedly attracted to you. It cannot do otherwise.
Let’s go back to creating a passive income… if that is the first part of your goal, then, apply the principle above and begin to learn about how you can create such an income. You may be surprised by what you find! Remember to not only educate yourself, but to keep both your heart and mind open. You may go visit websites, attend seminars, read books, whatever means you may choose to use; remember that you have to follow your intuition and acquire knowledge. There are many sources of information available, so much, in fact that it can become contradictory. Learn how to differentiate what is real from what is not. Do not believe all that you read or listen to. Remember also that it is not because you don’t know something yet, that it does not exist. Keep an open mind and begin a journey that will change your life!
In the coming months, we will explore specific issues related to money – how to make more passive income, while keeping more of it and lowering the associated risks, including financial knowledge, international outlook, domestic strategies, asset protection and structuring, alternatives through contacts and support, just to name a few. You will be introduced to a world of possibilities and hence, grow to make a difference.
