"Though I am grateful for the blessings of wealth, it hasn’t changed who I am. My feet are still on the ground. I’m just wearing better shoes". Oprah Winfrey.
Don’t we all go through phases in our lives when we want nothing other than to be wealthy? We don’t want our financial burdens weighing us down anymore.
We can go through with our lives "hoping" that some day we’ll make it and be financially independent for the rest of our lives. But hoping doesn’t get you anywhere until you "decide" you will be wealthy. Once you’ve made your decision, there’s a shift in your consciousness which will awaken your thoughts and ideas as to how you’re going to achieve your wealth. You’ll start attracting people into your life who will help you on your path to success.
Yes, you will have times where you feel you’ll never make it, but it’s at that point you must show perseverance.
"Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up". Thomas A. Edison (1847 - 1931)
Do you think Thomas Edison was just "hoping" he’d invent the first commercially practical incandescent light? I don’t think so. He’d made a decision that he was going to succeed and he never gave up, even though it’s claimed he had over 1,000 failures.
The difference between hoping and deciding is immense. It’s only when you decide to do something that action is taken and success is achieved.
