Purposeful Prosperity

Purposeful Prosperity:When You Want Your Life to Matter You Don't Need to beStopped in Making a Difference You want your life to matter, to be able to make a difference. Oh, youmay not want to change the world (or you might) but for sureyou want to be able to contribute to those around you, and to enjoy allthat life has to offer. But it's hard to live a prosperous andpurposeful life when every time you turn around there's some financialcrisis - monthly bills that need to be paid and seem to never go away,and just when you think you can start to get ahead, the car breaksdown, or you or someone in your family becomes ill.And when it's not a money crisis, it's a time crunch. Therenever seems to be enough hours in a day to get ahead - to make any realprogress in your life. On top of all that, there are things you want toaccomplish but you don't know how to go about achieving them. It feelslike you don't have the skills or talents you need. In other words, 'notenoughness' seems toshow up everywhere you turn. Not enough money, not enough time, andsometimes the worst of all, you don't seem to be enough. You're eithernot smart enough, talented enough, or capable enough in some way tofulfill your dreams.So, to try to compensate you work harder,either by working more hours at your current job, or taking on a secondor in some cases even a third job. But there are only so many hours ina day and before long you start to feel the effects of all those extrahours, and the more tired you become the less effectiveyou become. Before you know it you're feeling burned outand overwhelmed. So, to relieve the stress you take a vacation to getaway from it all for awhile, only to return to a mountain of workthat's not been done and a hefty balance on your credit card, and thevicious cycle continues. Working longer and harder to get ahead maywork at first,but before long you find yourself deeper in the hole financially andmore tired and stressed out than before. Workingharder, often at a job that you don't find satisfying and fulfillingwill never lead to a prosperous or purposeful life. Why? Because it'sbased on a case of mistaken identity.People who find life to be a constant struggle or who seem to take twosteps forward and three steps back, have misidentifiedthe source of true prosperity. The journey to a longterm and lasting turnaround starts by identifying the true source ofprosperity, which is where the journey begins with PurposefulProsperity: Living a Life of Mindful Abundance Balanced withSimplicity.
