You Don't Want Money

Think about it, none of us really want money. We want the things that money can buy, so we spend our lives in pursuit of money so that we can buy them... but why?

Did you know that it's possible to get so focused on making money that you lose sight of the purpose for wanting money in the first place? Just think about how many people want more money so that they can have financial security and happiness.

But then they choose a career path just because it will bring them a bigger paycheck and they end up spending all their extra money trying to BUY the happiness that they're not experiencing in their job.

Now believe it or not, this is actually what's causing most people to lose their motivation to take actions which will lead to them making more money: starting their own business, investing, launching a new career etc. I mean how much more motivated would you be to make money if you were always thinking about what you wanted to DO with that money instead of getting hung up on the money itself?

How much more engaged would your creative imagination (probably your most valuable money making asset) be if you were focused with burning passion and intensity on the reasons why you really wanted to attract more wealth and prosperity into your life?

Just think about the wealthiest and most successful people in history (or even those alive today), and you'll find that all of them were more focused on following their passions than they were on money.

So if you want to attract more wealth into your life, the first thing to ask yourself is this...

What do You Really Want?

Sit down right now and write down everything that you want to do or have in your life, and put a dollar sign next to each of them. Don't make anything "wrong" and don't let whether you can "afford" it get in the way. Just take the time to really dream without limits and to be honest with yourself about what you really want.

This way you'll have a concrete goal to shoot for instead of saying: "I want to have the money to travel" or "I want financial security" or "I want a nice house and a nice car." These kinds of vague generalizations are nothing more than wishful thinking, and wishful thinking inspires passivity more than it inspires action.

Think about it, the more specific your target is, the better your chances are of hitting it. By quantifying amount of money that you want, you'll engage your creative imagination and your internal sense of motivation will compel you to take action.

Just remember that as soon as you know how much money you need to do and have the things that you want, focus again on what you want. The more you do this, the greater your desire will grow and the more motivated you'll be to develop plans of action which will empower you to attract the wealth and prosperity you need to fulfill them.
