Steps to Prosperity #3 - Pursue The Passion
Go where passion leads you, regardless of the fallout.
The secret to ending struggle is to stop pursuing a life of compromise. Instead, discover your passion and follow your highest excitement in every moment, regardless of the fallout.
If your passion leaves the building, you should reconsider whether staying is worth it!
Pay attention! Don’t stay with something for the wrong reasons. This holds true for many things, such as relationships, jobs, or people in your life who you feel might not be treating you right.
This takes courage! It sounds simple, but put it to work and you’ll experience the mind’s rebellion! Your mind will use reason, fear, guilt, or any other device necessary to get you back under its spell.
The rewards of pursuing excitement moment-by-moment are enormous. However, the consequences of doing what you are not passionate about are equally detrimental.
If you want to master the law of prosperity (least effort) and create a rich and amazing life, take this string of ideas seriously:
Prosperity is only guaranteed in the place where you belong.
You were born to solve a problem. Not every problem.
You don’t get to choose your destiny; you choose your daily habits.
Habits create your destiny. Build a day and you can build a life.
If you pursue what you don’t love, you will develop a habit of struggle.
You will design a life of mediocrity without passion directing your actions.
Pursue passion and excitement and you will eventually excel.
Excellence is always the seed for prosperity.
People that think "the harder they work, the more success they will achieve" are living in their belief. It is not true, but it can be experienced as true. If you want to build a muscle, you break it down and then allow it to build when you rest. When you stop putting resistance on it, it grows. Manifesting what you want doesn’t require muscle from you. The universe does the lifting. Your only job is to decide clearly what it is that you want, and then get out of the way.
An outer action is usually required. The action has a "perfect timing" for it to be right. Remember, the right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing.
To be at the right place at the right time, action is required.
In the "surrendered" state-of-being, inspired action will spring forth, naturally. Action will emerge from within as excitement to take the action. It will be the fastest path to your joy, in that moment. A person who struggles to make ends meet every month is not growing stronger in their consciousness. They are actually beating their head against the wall by trying to do the same thing over and over again and expecting to get different results.
I have not met anyone who lives in a world of lack and limitation or poverty, who experiences the basic struggle for survival as fulfillment. It is unnatural to struggle to survive and have your needs met. People learn to live this way from other disconnected humans who haven’t figured things out. Learning to struggle to get by in life is a mental illness, if you ask me.
My definition of prosperity is having health, wealth, happiness, joy, love, connection and all the desires of your heart necessary to fulfill your unique purpose in life.
Some people believe that prosperity is having an eight-figure income or a lifestyle where they answer to no one ever again. It might be. Then again, it might not be. It’s important to approach prosperity from a sober perspective. Not everyone is going to be a millionaire or a billionaire.
YOUR prosperity is having what YOU need in order to fulfill YOUR purpose. Prosperity is good health, loving relationships, career satisfaction, a sound mind or anything that blesses you (or/and others). Being happy and ready for more is the ultimate PROSPER attitude.
So what about poverty? Is it noble to be a martyr and live in poverty?
Poverty is a disease. Poverty comes from ignorance. It is evil. Poverty creates more suffering on this planet than any other disease. Poverty is an unnatural state-of-being. The world is in chaos. Uncertainty is everywhere. Only wisdom can exalt someone out of darkness. Darkness is ignorance. Remaining ignorant is not an option in an orderly universe. We either wake up and figure out what’s going on, or life provides increasing contrast to force us to reconsider our beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours. The endgame of ignorance is despair.
Most people who are alive today don’t mind struggle, as long as they can place the blame on someone or something else.
In order to have a real life, you must be willing to look at your situation square in the eye and take complete ownership. Yes, you did create it all.
Your beliefs hold you responsible for what you choose to interpret as your experience – whether positive or negative – you previously decided what you would be experiencing today. You can change this, if necessary.
