The 6 “Must Know” Steps to Lifetime Success and Abundance
Every successful person uses these 6 steps!
There’s a piece of dialogue in the movie “Wall Street” (1987), where Hal Holbrook’s character says: “Man looks in the abyss. There’s nothing staring back at him. At that moment, man finds his character, and that is what keeps him out of the abyss.” For so many of us – myself included – it is so true: we needed to hit ‘rock bottom’ before we could find our true character and climb out of the hole. For others, their true character comes naturally and there are no such severe trials.
We live in a time of fast-paced, seemingly insensitive, frenzy; it is, in fact, sensory-overload. It can be a challenge to keep up with the world around us, let alone get ahead and build an abundant life. I’m not just talking about money either. I am speaking about true abundance, across the board, in all areas of life; a balanced and happy lifetime – of course not without its minor challenges – that moves steadily along, accumulating a life of plenty. Given the frantic world and all the demands of life, how does one enjoy a life of “getting there” and employ a natural transition into a comfortable retirement?
Real and true Abundance – across the board in all areas of life – means that we are placing a top priority on abundance within our relationships. Yes, this is your significant other or spouse, and it is also all the rest of the people in your life! Relationships take effort, and yet the rewards are beyond measure.
Perhaps it is most healthy to view relationships in terms of a passionate investment of yourself in those around you. Although I use the term ‘investment’, this is not to imply that there is an expected reward, or that the ‘investment’ is made in order to gain a certain reward. Not at all. It means that you invest of yourself primarily for their reward.
Recently I had a dream that I was once again on my wealthy uncle’s sensational yacht, way out in the center of a vast ocean, all-alone, and feeling incredibly tiny and vulnerable. There were no winds to fill the sails of the 75-foot, luxurious trimaran, and there was nothing but water stretching to the horizon in all directions. Success would be to find an island of paradise, or to be spotted and rescued in the shipping lanes. But alas, I was stranded, out of food and fresh water, and large sharks were now circling ever closer.

As an “Abundant Life Coach” I get asked about the meaning of “financial abundance” very often. What this means to you can be the difference between living the lifestyle of your dreams, or settling for something less than your dreams. I want you to live the life of your dreams!
Here, then, are the main 5 Factors of Financial Abundance:
“The Abundant Mindset”
Thousands upon thousands of books, articles, media, programs, and so much more have been produced that discuss the awesome power of our minds, and the influence of our thinking upon our lives. It is difficult to say enough or emphasize enough that truth. As I see it, we are exactly as we think.
In my lower-middle-class youth, I was raised to discuss money almost never; money was mostly to be associated with all the evils of the world. As a result of my childhood, I came to hold internal conflicting messages about having money, which made it tough to go out into the world and build abundance.
As I reach the age of fifty, my money intelligence has evolved, of course. I no longer regard money as evil. Just as a gun becomes evil in the wrong hands, so it is with money. How we go about earning it, keeping it, and using it is what truly counts in the end run. Now that may sound elementary, but the implications are many.

Despite all the millions of articles, studies, advice, and other “stuff”, it is not rocket science; staying happily married is much easier when you are true to the 7 vows I will share with you. And I warn you: if you see yourself failing in any of these 7 vows, you either have intensive work to do, or you should not be married! I will add that the success of the traditional vows we take on the day we marry – each of those vows – are made possible by these 7 vows.

Depression and having extreme difficulty is a natural and normal fact of life that most of us will deal with either continuously, or at one point or another. This is a very serious condition; it is an illness that often leads to death when untreated.
We live in a fast-paced, fast-food, fast-business, high-stress society. Each new generation faces ever-increasing variables. It is no wonder that people are born with brain-chemical imbalances and/or predisposition for depression…or worse.
There are trained medical and mental health professionals that can absolutely help! If you have a loved one or a friend that is suffering, it is your responsibility to try to get that person to take action for help.

I love to get movie DVDs that have an additional disc of just special features! Last night I watched all the documentaries about Howard Hughes, from the DVD “The Aviator”. The special features almost always contain tidbits of this idea or that idea that went into making the film. So often these features are inspiring and are just one place to trigger ideas of my own.
If you are on the Internet regularly and are witness to current e-commerce, I must ask you to not take for granted what you see and instead take a huge step outside the world of online business. I ask you to think – for just a moment – about the “brick-and-mortar” world (that we all live in).
The “brick-and-mortar” business world gave birth to the e-commerce world, so in a way the “real world” of business (what we now call brick-and-mortar) is the parent of the world of online business (what we commonly call e-commerce). This parent has now seen its child reach maturity and make its own way in a changing world.
