Would you believe me if I told you that you are richer than you think, that you have more money than you currently believe. Money, which has yet to be converted into actual dollar bills. All the potential for financial earning is still dormant. What you need to do is to create a shift within your consciousness and take stock of your personal net worth. What is your personal net worth? All the skills, abilities and talents that you have been cultivating from the first day you started working.

You've had a lifetime of work experience which you need to classify as your personal net worth. Some people are busy determining their financial net worth -- you need to sit down and determine your personal net worth. List everything and remember your personal net worth is the means through which your financial net worth will flow.

Financial lack or hardships are a mirror of your unused potential.

I repeat : financial lack or financial hardships are a mirror of your unused potential.

The discontent you feel about your financial life speaks volumes and reveals so much more about you -- that you are meant for more. If you weren't meant to have more than you would feel contented with your lot. However, your discontent is your soul telling you there's more out there for you, that you can do more, that your potential is greater than you currently believe. Your soul, the mastermind behind every event in your life, can see the whole of your life and knows what you are capable of manifesting.

Financial lack tends to snap you out of complacency, stagnation and mental laziness. It awakens every nerve and fiber of your being; it is a call for more development. It compels you to action; it inspires you to search for ways and means of eradicating it from your reality. It forces you to get creative; it forces you to think differently about your circumstances, it forces you to upgrade and cultivate more skills; it forces you to exercise your inner financial guru muscles. Rather than perceiving lack, in any area of your life, as a curse, begin to view it as a sign from the universe that more inner development is called for.

There are no short cuts to financial abundance. You need to work, initiate, create, plan and execute. A person who possesses and exudes a certain charisma, a certain degree of skill, a healthy confidence and belief in their talent will achieve great things. People like this play for long term gain, and dismiss short term wins. They are after the big fish and the catch of the day does not impress them. Are you after the big fish or catch of the day?

You need to have enough discipline to forfeit instant gratification for future rewards including extraordinary riches. The idea that certain people are luckier is ludicrous! When you apply yourself, when you use your innate determination, focus on the object of your intention, and commit to learning all that you can about your chosen field -- there is no way that you won't succeed. Prepare yourself as much as you can for the position that you desire -- whether to run a company or own one -- you need to be prepared and when opportunity comes, luck will be all around you.

At this time, all of us are being challenged to awaken more of our inner potential -- especially in the realm of finances. We are evaluating our priorities and assessing our relationship with money. We've all heard the saying 'Money doesn't grow on trees' but it does grow within your consciousness and bears fruit through clear vision, intention, determination, persistence, discipline and service. All of us are being given the opportunity to create multiple financial platforms. Are you up for the challenge? Are you willing to spend time figuring out your personal net worth? The journey from financial lack to financial abundance requires the complete use of Divine consciousness and human intelligence -- use it wisely.
