Wealth Comes in Many Forms

My mentor, Bob Proctor, once said, “Don’t cry over anything that won’t cry over you.” People will often create tremendous suffering for themselves just because they’re in debt or have lost money. They’ll generate intense feelings of anger, sadness, and fear, all of which are destructive and actually make it more difficult for them to regain the wealth they lost. Because they’re upset, they may fight with their spouse over money or become severely depressed, not realizing that the power to create abundance for themselves once again is always available to them.nnWhen you understand that money is simply one form of the tremendous force known as abundance or wealth, and that you can always receive riches from our ever-giving Universe, it becomes easier to let go of negative feelings about money and the destructive belief that material wealth is more important than other manifestations of abundance. Ask yourself how much money you would take in exchange for your eyesight and your abundant health. How much would I have to pay you for you to give up your relationship with the person you love the most? My guess is that your health, your eyesight, and the people you love are far too precious to trade for any amount of money.nnIf what you receive isn’t money, open yourself up to it with gratitude and joy. Allow your creativity to flourish and you can discover ways to convert the abundance into the form you could most use right now.nnWisdom and knowledge are types of abundance that we often overlook. An antiques dealer I know often purchased items from homeless people who brought him furniture and other objects they’d found in the garbage.nnHe was always gracious and kind to them, and one day one of his regular sellers, who was a homeless man, noticed that the dealer had recently acquired a gold record by a celebrity.nn“You have that underpriced,” he said. “I used to work in the music business. I know.”nnThe antiques dealer listened to what the man had to say and decided to take his advice and quadruple the price. A few days later, the dealer’s dentist came in, got very excited about the gold record, and said, “Listen, I’d love to own that, but I don’t have that much in cash to spend. How about if I do that dental work I recommended to you, in exchange for the gold record?”nnThe antiques dealer was able to pay for expensive dental procedures he needed and couldn’t afford, because he valued the abundance that came to him from an unexpected source and converted it into something he could use.n nnThis excerpt taken from Peggy’s new book “21 Distinctions of Wealth”nnDo you want to know the secret to attracting more abundance?
