Extinguish Doubt

 By Dan Waldschmidt September 9, 2016  What you do matters. Everything. The big stuff. The little stuff. Even the annoying stuff. It matters that you waste time.  It matters that you blame others for your failures. It matters that you are lazy at times. It matters because achieving your goals matters. And eliminating excuses is the pathway that takes you there. It’s the same path that every great achiever has followed.

Is your personal investing strategy simple enough to where you can explain it to another person so that they understand it? If not, it might be time to reconsider your approach. Most people's success in increasing personal wealth is equally proportionate to their ability to understand their investing plan. Let's face it, most of us aren't financial experts and there's no point in becoming one in order to succeed with increasing your personal wealth.

In 2003, I was introduced to the world of personal development. While I have learned many valuable lessons since then, and I have grown (i.e. "developed" I guess you could say), looking back I also believe that some of what was being shared was not what it appeared to be. Much of my personal development journey centered on something referred to as a "money mindset."  I was taught that if I wasn't as wealthy as I wanted to be, it was because I did not possess a wealth mindset.  I was taught wealth affirmations. I went through experiential exercises that were supposed to transform my mindset.  I was taught to live and spend "as if I were wealthy."   The result of all of this mindset reprogramming was supposed to be financial freedom. I would begin attracting great wealth. It would not be difficult. It would not require hard work.

Submitted by: Kathy FLORIDA I am a small business owner. 2020 was a really rough year. Thankfully, learning more about the law of attraction and manifesting have helped me to stay grounded, even when I felt the most desperate.   I am a small business owner whose business, even in good years, was up and down. In 2020 I learned what it is like to have all your bank accounts in the negative with bank fees piling on, and to only have 25 cents in cash. I had a few days without eating, and I learned how much gas I needed to have in my car before the empty light comes on.   Through all of these experiences, I kept thinking that there must be something that I am supposed to be learning from this. It seemed that no matter what I did to try to bring in money, I just could not catch up. I asked God over and over to please help me. Something kept pulling me to reread The Power. I had bought it years ago and used it back then successfully, but it had just sat ...
