Here are two important questions you should ask yourself. Whenever you are at work or home or anywhere what do you think about most? What are the majority of your conversations about? Now, what are your desires, dreams, goals and promises? If the answer to everything I just asked you is not relevant to each other, then you have been wasting your time. So the key to living your life the way YOU want to, is to have everything going on in your life working together in alignment with each other.

If my goal was to help the poor and I knew that was the thing I wanted to devote my life to, then I should be thinking feeling and acting in every way that supports my desire. My conversations should be spoken in a way that supports who I am and who I am becoming. Of course speaking negative about myself or about anything else that goes against what my purpose may be, would definitely defeat the purpose. Another great example is how everybody wants more money to be financially free, but they are always so focused on how much money they don’t have. Their thoughts and their feelings are not anywhere in alignment with actually being financially free, but just the opposite. Yet they still want it. Unfortunately, to want something and think you are going to get it just because you want it is insane. It takes action, thoughts, feelings, and action (Also known as faith and deeds). Another important thing you should not do is become ungrateful for the money that you currently have. You can never receive more without being grateful for what you have.

What you must understand is that in order to have, do, or be something, you must internalize it and focus on it. Listen to those thoughts and conversations you have and then ask yourself, “is this relevant to my purpose?” Thinking and discussing anything in a negative way no matter what it is can actually push your desires further away from you. So if you catch yourself thinking or talking about something that hinders your blessing or is just irrelevant to you and your future, let it go. Your time is much more valuable if you give that time and attention to what you want in life as opposed to what you don’t.
