Get Out Of The Muck
Copyright 2005 Glen Snethun
Have you ever wondered what differentiates the wealthy, the
successful and the prosperous from those who struggle
financially? Are they smarter? Do they work harder? In
most cases, the answer is "no". They simply have
discovered a recipe for success. A recipe for wealth and
an abundant life. And above all, I believe they no longer
live in "muck".
A while back (since I turned the big "40") I began to take
a very serious look at my life and the direction I was
headed. You know what I discovered? I wasn’t headed
anywhere, I was stuck in the "muck"!
What is this "muck" you ask? See if my definition sounds
familiar:
#1) I had way too much debt. Credit cards, credit lines,
mortgages, 2nd mortgages! This is the deepest, most
consuming "muck" for those who struggle financially. Like a
car stuck on a back road, I would never stop spinning my
wheels if I didn't eliminate at least some of my debt.
#2) I was a money worrier! In this "muck", I'd spent so
much time worrying and focusing on how broke I was that I
never even knew a "prosperity mindset" existed. Finally
someone told me that I was attracting into my life exactly
what I focused on. That hit me between the eyeballs. Hmmmm!
#3) The third kind of very daunting and limiting "muck"
was, if you can believe it, ungratefulness. You all know
the routine. Have the home, health, family, etc. but still
aren't happy. Can any of you relate? Again, I was told
that until I focused those energies on the abundance aspect
of my life, more abundance would not flow.
So, like little Johnny who is stuck in a mud hole with his
rubber boots on, and wants to free himself. What does he
do? Does he scream for help, does he try to get out in his
socks? Until Johnny has a plan - nothing will happen!
And so it was for me. When I finally got good and tired of
being broke and decided that I'd had enough of being stuck,
enough of getting rescued by lenders, enough of being left
behind, I finally made a plan and got busy
One last thing...don’t expect results over night, everyone
has to pay their dues. That's the topic of next weeks
article.
