The reality is that even if you are financially bankrupt, if you focus on the other three values – personal, experience, and giving – you will become fulfilled and the financial element will fall into place if you are ready to receive. Your financial value is a renewable resource. You can always make back the money, but not the other three values. Without the first three values, those wealthy individuals, regardless of how they obtained that wealth, do not know how to make it back. This is why I truly believe that if you took all of the wealth in the world and put it in one spot, it would redistribute itself to the same people who understand the interrelationship of these values. These same people create their own abundance. It is akin to those people who will themselves to stay healthy. For the most part, they do stay healthy. It’s the old mind over matter principle.Tweet me your takeaway from today’s episode @davidmeltzer Email Me! david@dmeltzer.comSign up for my Free Weekly Training https://free.dmeltzer.com/friday-training-1Text Me!
