Everyone Is Born A Champion

God is fair to every human being he created. Even though this statement is a fact, unfortunately, not everyone will agree with it.

If you are one such person who thinks God is unfair, at the end of this article, you will agree with me that God is, always has and always will be fair to everyone.

This is the reason I chose the title for this article: “Everyone is born a champion”.

We are all born under different circumstances in different societies in different parts of the world: some are born into real affluence and are able to get all they want that costs money.

Some are born into middle class homes where they are able to afford some good things of life while others are born into poverty where all they are used to is their parents inability to afford the basics of life – things as simple as food, shelter and clothing are a luxury for such individuals.

From records of achievements of men from all walks of life, history has proven over and over again that it is not the circumstances of the early days of your life that matter but what you are able to make out of it.

Men from poor homes and middle class homes are able to move from obscurity to become people of great wealth and influence. This leads me to believe that everyone is born a champion but only few are able to discover the real secret and use it well.

Some may be tempted to think that it is because such men from struggling backgrounds were able to be at the right place at the right time. This may be true but it would mean God is not fair to everyone and this would contradict my statement at the beginning of this piece.

Some may attribute this success to luck, connection, intellectual brilliance, hard work, determination, etc etc.

While on the surface this may appear true, there is something common to men who achieve legitimate wealth and success in life that demonstrates God’s love and fairness to all humans.

How do I know this? Let us look at Sacred scripture for the answers. In Genesis 1 in the story of creation, we see God creating things by word of mouth or by his command. God said and it happened over and over again.

Now in Genesis 1: 26a (Good News Bible), it is written, “Then God said, and now we will make human beings; they will resemble us”. Now the question is, in what way do humans resemble God? It is in the power to create by word of command. It is also in the spirit of man that is immortal or cannot die.

When someone dies physically, his spirit or soul never dies but goes back to the Creator, who is God.

Now since in one way we resemble God by ability to create by word of command, it means we can achieve or create whatever we desire in life by this means. So why does everyone not do it? And why is it that not everyone who knows and uses words of command is able to achieve?

The answer again, is found in Sacred Scripture. In Proverbs 4: 23, it is written, “Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts”. This means even when you say words, as long as your thoughts are not consistently focused on what you have said, your life will take the direction of your dominating thoughts.

This is the very reason why majority of people are struggling to get by in life. It is not because they don’t work hard enough or don’t have money or don’t have connections or enough opportunities, but it is because they don’t think the right thoughts to shape their lives in the right direction.

As the book of Proverbs has told us, it is your thoughts that have creative power no matter what your present circumstances are. Your thoughts can change everything for good if you would just learn how to use it properly.

We are told in Psalm 127:2, “It is useless to work so hard for a living, getting up early and going to bed late. For the Lord provides for those He loves, while they are asleep”.

If God provides for those He loves, then the question now is, who are those God loves? We find the answer again in the words of King David of Israel in Psalm 37:25, “I am an old man now; I have lived a long time, but I have never seen a good man abandoned by the Lord or his children begging for food”.

Everyone of age of reason should know who a good man is and so we know that the Lord provides for a good man. For those who still do not know, a good man is one who is not engaged in wrongdoing or anything that is contrary to God’s law.

If you are still having a hard time figuring out who a good person is, then it is someone whose words, actions or inactions DO NOT cause pain or hurt to others or to even him or herself.

A good person therefore thinks the right thoughts always and wishes everyone well including himself always. So it means the individual who is good and who thinks the right thoughts will always achieve whatever s/he sets out to do in life.

If you still think God is unfair, I have demonstrated to you that it is not your circumstances of life but your thoughts that determine the direction of your life.

Whether you are intelligent or someone considered unintelligent, rich or poor, it is your thoughts that shape your life even more than your actions. Anyone who is able to take control of his or her thoughts can use the creative power of word of command to achieve anything in life.

Do you still think God is unfair? You will have to change your thoughts to move ahead in life for everyone is born a champion not by their circumstances but by their dominating thoughts that move them in the direction of life they willingly choose themselves.

No matter your situation today, change your thinking and it will change your life. It’s that simple!

Now do you still think God is unfair? Compliments of the Season!

Some Powerful Ways To Rake In Millions of Dollars of Internet Income (3)

..........................continued from posts of Saturday December 4, 2010 and Sunday December 12, 2010.


(d) Work at Home programs where you have a website: in this case you usually provide a product or service from a personalised website. Such product or service is something in which you have an expertise and could be anything from gardening to cooking to home improvement to music to games, etc.

A website is your address on the internet like we have for google.com, yahoo.com, etc. You will need a registrar to register a domain name of your choice that is available for use (e.g. google.com) at an annual fee and you will also need a web host to hold your web pages that will contain information on your product or service. The web pages are hosted at a monthly fee depending on the web hosting company.

Some companies handle both services for you but the choice of hosting company is usually determined by the kind of service they provide, e.g. bandwidth available to host your pages particularly when a lot of customers come visiting at the same time.

Others issues to consider include the type of software and other simple scripts available to the user. Some provide website templates and others provide the What You See Is What You Get or WYSIWYG type website builders to help you build your web pages easily if you have little or no experience.

Some programs help you to build your website FREE once you join them while in other cases, you will have to build it yourself or get a professional to do it at a cost depending on what you want on the site and the number of pages.

You will also need to have a payment processor with which to receive payment for your products or services. There are a number of such processors and the one to choose will depend on the payment type(s) you wish to receive and whether the processor’s customer service is responsive to your needs when they arise.

As the site owner you will be responsible for advertising the site to get customers. The mode of advertising is similar for affiliate programs and this is where most people are unable to make headway to online success because they are unaware of the methods and manner of advertising available to get customers.

I want you to note here that you must have to make the advertising as targeted as possible to the customer you have in mind if you are to earn income from this method or from affiliate programs. For instance, you cannot be marketing information on sale of dog food to customers who are interested in software.

You cannot also be marketing information on sale of real estate to a group of people whose main interest is music equipment. The more targeted your advertising, the greater the chance of reaching the right audience to make a sale.

Some advertising methods are free while some require an investment to get results. Examples are:

i. Website submission to directories: e.g. google, yahoo, bing, lycos, exact 
seek, entire web, alexa, etc. Some of these submissions to search engines are 
free to do while some require some payment for inclusion in their directories.

While this could be a free source of good traffic to your site, you are advised not to spam the free submission directories. By spam, I mean submitting your site several times within a short period. 

If you engage in this, your website would be blacklisted from search engines and you lose the opportunity for free traffic to your site to market your product or service.

The ideal resubmission period is usually monthly or every 30 days.

ii. Article writing for advertising: in this method, you usually write content of value to readers and submit articles to article directories.

As the article author, there is usually a resource box at the end of the article where you are allowed a link back to your website for visitors who read your article to click to see what is on offer.

Please note however that it is important that you read the rules of article submission for each directory you submit to so you are not accused of spamming. Spamming here would mean deliberately and continuously advertising your site or affiliate link directly in the article body without giving any useful information to readers.

It would also mean submitting the same article more than once and could get you banned from the site. To get your readers to be interested in clicking your link in the resource box, ensure to give them valuable information that does sound overly advertising.

The resource box could contain information on free software, e-book or some other gift of value that is linked to your site.

I would also advise against plagiarism, and by this I mean going to other article directories to take someone else’s article and posting on another site with you as the author in the resource box. This will certainly get you banned once it is discovered. You do not have to take advantage of people to succeed online.

iii. Classified advertising: you can advertise your website or affiliate links on classified sites. Some are free while others require a little investment. What is important again is to be targeted in your advertising to ensure the right people get to see your site or affiliate link.

iv. Reciprocal linking: this method would work if you are a website owner. You can exchange links with sites of similar content (e.g. work at home programs) for higher search engine ranking and increased visibility for your site. By this I mean you place a link to another site with similar content on your webpage while the other site owner also places a link to your site on their website. Usually, a links page is created to keep a record of all outbound links placed on your site.

You are advised to focus on exchanging links with sites with similar content as yours since search engines would not rank your site higher for content of any kind.

v. Forum advertising: this has to be a forum with members looking for the kind of information you want to advertise. Usually, the advert that has a link to your site is placed in the signature and not in the main body of your posts in the forum, which would be considered as spamming.

you have to read the forum rules before posting and ensure what you post is of value to readers because when they begin to see you as an expert from your posts, that would make them look at your signature and then click on your link to your affiliate program or website.

So, giving valuable information is the keyword here to succeed in this type of advertising. Some forum also offer paid advertising services to their members.

vi. Social media advertising: this is very popular nowadays because advertising on some of the social sites is effective because the advert is targeted at the right audience by various demographics (country, age, sex, interests, etc). Some of the advertising methods are free while some require an investment but it is a good advertising source for online marketers.

However, ensure to read the terms of the site owners before placing your adverts.

vii. Advertising through list building: in this method, what you do is offer a FREE and valuable resource (e-book, software, report) to users in exchange to sign up for your newsletter.

Thereafter, you then begin to send them valuable information on tools and resources to help them succeed online. At the end of your newsletter, you provide them a chance to sign up for your offer on your site or affiliate program.

This method requires a bit of automation and by this, I mean having an autoresponder e-mail software with which you prepare your messages of value in advance to send to subscribers to your newsletter on days you have scheduled.

While this method works for new comers to the internet who sign up for your newsletter, it may not work for experienced marketers who will need a lot more convincing to do business with you.

You will usually need to provide a way for subscribers to opt out of your newsletter at the bottom of each mail so that you look professional always. There should also be a link from your autoresponder to your personal e-mail so you can respond promptly to those who want to ask questions on your offer or information.

There are many other interesting ways people use online to advertise and market their affiliate programs and websites.

These are some of the ways people earn very good income nowadays on the internet and any one can do it. Fortunately, there are programs on the internet that have all these powerful ways of making money online all in one program.

Now let me recap. As I said at the beginning of this article and if you have taken time to follow and understand all I have said here, you will see that you will succeed online if you pay attention to the under listed:         

(1) You must have the right mental attitude required for success. This is very important or else you will give up at the slightest challenge.

(2) You will have to invest some money either at the beginning or at some point to grow your business. Again, never let anyone tell you anything else because that would be incorrect.

(3) You must have valuable information because that is what most of the people who do not succeed online are in need of. With valuable information, you will definitely succeed online and see how easy it is to earn income there.

(4) You will definitely need a system in place most of the time to succeed. As writer and poet Oscar Wilde put it, “Success is a science; if you have the conditions, you will get the result”.

..........................CONCLUDED.

Some Powerful Ways To Rake In Millions of Dollars of Internet Income (2)

......................continued from last week


(1(3)   Traditional Home Business: this is one of the most common ways of earning income online for most people and this is why I call it traditional home business.

Just like the aforementioned online income opportunities, it gives you the opportunity to earn income from the comfort of your home thereby allowing you freedom to attend to issues like caring for your kids/other needy persons as well as attending to household chores.

This type is very common with work at home mums and it falls into 2 categories where you either work for a company or you work for yourself.

(a(4)   Working for a company from home: Where you work for a company, you will first need to apply and once approved, you will need an e-mail address to which a notification of the jobs to be done would be sent to you.

You then log onto the company’s website and execute the job. Thereafter, you will be paid as agreed when you signed up for the work at home job.

Examples of such jobs are work at home surveys and data entry. Some of them like the survey companies also give other opportunities for you to earn additional income when you refer others.

(b(5)   Article writing: I separate this income opportunity so people don’t confuse it with article writing and submission as a means of advertising your business, which I will explain later on.

In this method, there are article submission directories that also have a service where they pay you to write for them.

You will have to apply to be considered and once approved, you can earn some good money from this. Some sites pay as much as between $2,000 to $5,000 monthly to their writers.

Usually what they look for is a writer that has good command of the English Language, has unique and valuable content to offer as the sole copyright owner. 

The company usually retains the right to the written material and have conditions for their writers to follow if such writers want to use these materials on other article submission sites.

(6)  Blogging: A blog is a website or mini directory you own where you write your own articles of value to readers and also have total control over all of the content on the site.

You can also use articles of similar message written by others but you must as a professional and ethically give due credit to the original writer in the resource box, which I will explain later on.

People make money from blogging by advertising their links to affiliate programs on the blog where visitors can click to see and join. 

Another way they make money is by placing adverts people placed with companies like google, kontera, etc on their blogs; and when people click on these adverts to take a certain action as agreed, the blog owner is paid. Payment to the blog owner for visitors clicking and taking action on such adverts is called Cost Per Action (CPA).

There are free blog sites and there are those you need a personal website for, which means you will need to pay for a domain name and hosting of the site. I will explain this further down this article.

(d(7)   Affiliate programs: in affiliate programs, you work from home either for a company or you work for yourself as the affiliate program owner. When you work for a company, you will be given either products or service to get people to see and take some action. 

You are also given marketing tools and a sales page similar to that of other affiliates but with your own personalised affiliate number to promote to earn income to be sure it was you who brought the customer.

The company usually pays you for people you refer who take some action as agreed that qualifies for payment, e.g. a sale, providing contact details or clicking any of your marketing tools like banners and text links.

In some cases, you are expected to own your own website to place the marketing tools so that you are paid for the agreed action taken by the people you refer.

Where a sale is required through your affiliate link to enable you earn a commission, the company handles the customers’ orders, payment, inventory, shipping and commission payments to you and other affiliates. 

Your job is to drive customers or traffic to be able to see the product or service through your membership link.

There are affiliate programs that require payment of a monthly subscription by members to benefit from products or a service or services within the program at a discounted rate.

Examples are those where you are allowed to buy everyday/regular items like household goods (toiletries, cosmetics, etc) as well as clothing and accessories, DVDs, electronics, etc at discounted rates as long as you remain a member.

When you refer other members to join such programs to enjoy similar benefits, the company pays you also for as long as your referral remains a paying member.

There are other such monthly membership programs where you benefit from exclusive services of a nature that would help you earn substantial additional income; and you are paid for referring new members to join also and you are also paid when they join to benefit from the additional income opportunities within the program.

I want to state a very important point here for you dear reader to note. One major reason most people do not succeed with affiliate programs is because they do not understand what constitutes a good affiliate program. 

In essence, a good affiliate program is one that would provide you with tools and resources to succeed.

Now by tools, I refer to banners and text links containing your affiliate information; more importantly by resources I mean the program owners will support and provide you with adequate information on effective ways to drive customers or traffic to your affiliate sales pages.

Some of these ways are free while others would require an investment. These are meant to ensure that you are able to make sales or get customers to take the agreed action for you to earn commissions.

If you do not get these kinds of support from an affiliate program, then as a new comer it will be most challenging achieving online success with them. This is the number one reason most people stop being members of affiliate programs.

Another salient feature of good affiliate programs is that they pay you not only on sales you make directly but on sales made by those you refer directly (called downlines), sometimes up to 3 – 5 levels deep.

But take note that what is very important is the support provided to help you succeed.

Now where you work for yourself as the affiliate owner, the process is more or less the same with you as the company handling all the other work while your affiliates handle getting customers to visit their affiliate sites to earn a commission.

Some companies have made the work easier for affiliate owners by handling the customers’ orders, payment, inventory, shipping as well as paying the affiliates of the program. 

So, all the affiliate program owner has to do is create a powerful product and register with such companies and an agreed amount is shared between the affiliate program owner and the company.

I have to state here that what is usually accepted for this type are digital or electronic products where the customer can have instant access to the product upon payment, e.g. software, e-books, music, ringtones, etc. That is indeed the power of the internet!

Some Powerful Ways To Rake In Millions of Dollars of Internet Income

As one can infer from the title, there are very many legitimate ways to earn an income online. However, this article will focus on some very powerful ones that a beginner and indeed anyone can use to earn a decent internet income as a full time job.

A new comer who takes an interest to the world of internet business while looking for additional or full time income would usually be amazed at the number of opportunities available.

For those who do give a try to some of these opportunities, one of the challenges they face is how to succeed since at the beginning this was what they were promised.

After a number of trials without success, they leave that opportunity, join the next big thing, get frustrated, leave that to join the next one until they eventually give up trying. Even at that, they continue to see more and more stories of successes others tell especially on the testimonial pages of income opportunities.

This usually makes them wonder just when their own story would be told and some even wonder if those success stories they read are indeed true.

Now I have taken time to write all these to enable those who fall into this category know that I understand their situation and this is what prompted me to write this article in the first place – so that such people and new comers can get valuable information to help them succeed online.

What you require to succeed online is no different in some cases from what is required to succeed offline:

(1)   You will need the right mental attitude required for success just like renowned book publisher Michael Korda says, “in order to succeed, we must first believe we can”. This is very important or else you will give up at the slightest challenge.

(2)   You will have to invest some money either at the beginning or at some point to grow your business. Never let anyone tell you anything else because that would be incorrect.

(3)   You will need valuable information because that is what most of the people who do not succeed online are in need of. With valuable information, you will definitely succeed online and see how easy it is to earn income there.

(4)   You will need a system in place most of the time to succeed. I will explain this later on.

The beauty of the online world is such that the market place is bigger than any one place. Now, depending on the nature of business you choose, you will need to get your product or service in front of the right audience to succeed.

In other cases, this will not be necessary, as you would see shortly.

As I said at the beginning, this article focuses on some powerful ways for a new comer to the internet to earn income. It also provides information for those who face challenges in succeeding online to be able to do so. Let us therefore consider some of these ways:

(1) Online Forex or Foreign Currency Trading: this is one method some people are using to quietly rake in thousands, hundreds of thousands and even millions of U.S. dollars, Euros, British pounds, Swiss francs, Japanese Yen, Australian dollars, Canadian and New Zealand dollars in daily, weekly, monthly and yearly incomes.

Foreign currency or Forex trading is the buying and selling of a particular country’s currency in exchange for another country’s currency at a profit. 

Though the offline currency trading has been in existence since the early 1970s, it was largely then controlled by governments and the banks. The online Forex trading started in 1994 because of the internet and its importance has continued to grow ever since.

The internet has also given rise to the use of margin accounts that provide what is called leverage whereby a forex trader can use small amounts in his margin account provided by a forex broker to trade larger volumes of forex transactions. 

This is why the ability to make good money in online forex trading is possible and it is also the reason why individuals are now able to trade forex and earn a decent living from it.

However, because most people do not have system in place, they are simply unable to make money from forex trading. 

Recall I mentioned earlier that one of the requirements to succeed online is to have a system in place for your business transactions.

The online forex market is no different. Basically, there are 4 ways individuals benefit from trading forex online. The first is by doing it themselves – majority do not succeed here because of a lack of a system and usually end up losing some and sometimes all their initial investments.

They lose because they approach forex trading like gambling and this is usually a suicidal move financially. You cannot make more winning trades in the forex market if you enter a trade and then hope it swings in your favour.

Those who succeed using this method have a system they follow to make more winning trades than losing trades and so have a net profit always. 

They use a system of fundamental analysis (usually driven by government policies and major world events like U.S. monthly unemployment data released every first Friday of every month) and technical analysis (usually charts that give a signal to enter a trade), trailing stops, stop loss and take profit settings on their accounts to guide when to enter a trade and when to exit a trade.

You can trade the forex market this way with amounts as little as $10 depending on the broker of your choice.

The second way is by using managed accounts. By this, I mean allowing the forex brokers to trade for you. You will be required in this case to invest  a minimum amount usually dependent on whether you are a conservative or an aggressive trader. 

You are usually warned about the risk of forex trading and that you can lose a substantial sum of money.

The third way individuals trade forex is by signals or alerts given by a broker to their subscribers. Some give these free but some others require you to make an investment to receive these signals. 

These are the same signals the brokers themselves use to enter a trade and when they exit a trade having reviewed all the conditions necessary to make the trade.

The fourth way is by use of robots. Robots usually are softwares created by their owners based on historical data of the forex market to determine automatically when to enter and exit trades.

The major disadvantage with this method is that robots are not able to predict when a major event has taken place and so they can enter a wrong trade based on historical data when a major event has already changed the direction of the market.

This is why many of these robots fail and only very few are able to make winning trades consistently.

By and large, some people continue to make substantial sums of money from the forex market because they have a system.


(2) Futures Trading: this has to do with trading in the financial markets (stocks, options, futures, etc). Trading pattern here is somewhat like trading the forex market but again, those who succeed do so largely because they operate using a system.

You will therefore need the guidance of experts to succeed in these markets so you can avoid getting your fingers burnt financially.

Fortunately, there are programs on the internet that provide useful guide on trading all these markets. They take you by the hand and show you how to trade successfully. In some cases, they tell you via alerts to place the same trades they are placing so you can succeed together.

The Value and Power of Giving Gratitude to God


People all over the world are in search of one thing or the other. Those who are religious take it a step further by asking for their need in prayer to God.

In some cases, a response comes almost immediately; at other times, there is a delay before a response comes but eventually a response does come to those who persevere in holding on to their belief that an answer will come.

This means God never fails no matter how long it takes His response to come. What is unfortunate though is that most of the time, the receiver of the blessing from God fails to acknowledge it through thanksgiving or gratitude.

Rather than show appreciation to God for answered prayers, most of us go ahead to place request upon request for more just like Sacred scripture tells us in Proverbs 27: 20, “Human desires are like the world of the dead - there is always room for more”.

It is even the case with some people to complain and blame God for unanswered prayers; they forget that this same God has answered their prayers in the past. Such people believe it is their right to get all they have asked for even where they failed to show appreciation for the already given ones.

Sacred scripture admonishes us to give thanks to God in all situations – 1 Thessalonians 5: 16 – 18, “Be joyful always, pray at all times, be thankful in all circumstances. This is what God wants from you in your life in union with Christ Jesus”.

This means no matter the outcome of any situation, we are expected to give thanks to God. The truth is, we have so many reasons on a daily basis to give thanks to God:

(1)   everyday we wake up from sleep
(2)   journey mercies when we step out and come back home safely
(3)   our source of livelihood
(4)   our spouse, children, siblings, parents, relatives, friends, colleagues, neighbours, employers, employees, business associates, parsons, etc
(5)   good health
(6)   a new home
(7)   a new car
(8)   a new job
(9)   a new business deal
(10) successfully passing examinations
(11) graduation from college
(12) recovery from illness
(13) the air we breathe
(14)  the food we eat
(15) the clothes we wear
(16) the gift of life
(17) and very many other reasons

What most of us are unaware of is the value and power of showing gratitude to God for His blessings to us. Now remember that God is the one who created the heavens, the earth and all that is in them. This means the power to give good things lies in Him and Him alone.

When we cultivate the habit and sincerely begin to practise appreciating God for every single thing he has done for us, it makes us acknowledge Him as the source of all we have and draws us closer to Him.

Now as we get closer to God, our faith in His ability to provide all we need increases; and because our faith increases, it spiritually and automatically opens up more blessings from Him into our lives.

Those who understand what I have said here have used this to bring many blessings into their lives. What I need to emphasise here, however, is the fact that gratitude has to be sincere and from the heart.

The reason for this is quite simple: you can deceive men but you cannot deceive God and so if your gratitude is not sincere and from your heart, you will be unable to tap into the value and power it conveys on those who practice it to achieve all they desire in life.

The Americans and Canadians have a special day they set aside every year to celebrate thanksgiving. The day is set aside to give thanks to God for everything in their lives. People gather with their families to celebrate this day every year.

History is not too clear on the origin of the day; though it originally began as a Christian celebration of harvest, it is now a secular holiday with the same intent – to give thanks to God for His mercies.

The Canadians celebrate theirs yearly every second Monday in October while the Americans celebrate theirs yearly every fourth Thursday in November

I personally believe this simple but unique celebration is one of the major secrets of the United States of America and Canada being among the world’s top economies. Every country in the world ought to set aside such a special day to give thanks wholeheartedly to God for His mercies.

I have advice for those who are in the habit of complaining when things don’t go the way they expect no matter the situation: please form the habit beginning immediately to step back whenever you find yourself in a situation that gives you psychological and emotional pressure and then begin to think of and appreciate all the good God has done for you and give him thanks from a sincere heart.

In those moments, the pressures will certainly ease off and in those very moments, you are unconsciously connecting directly with the very Source that can solve any and every challenge you face in life and before long, a solution will come – GUARANTEED!.

Begin today to cultivate the habit of gratitude to God for all He has done for you in all situations and the doors of opportunities and lasting success will be opened to you always.

There you have another wealth secret!

There is Abundance of Resources in the World

Even though it started few years earlier but sometime in 2008, we started receiving news reports of a slow down in the world economy or what most have come to know as the global economic meltdown.

The story goes that some borrowers in the U.S. were unable to pay back their loans from the sub prime lending scheme for mortgages, which triggered a crisis that made U.S. banks to stop lending to customers.

Some U.S. banks started declaring bankruptcy with losses running into billions of dollars.

As a result, most American consumers were unable to finance their consumption of goods and services, which in turn affected manufacturers in the U.S. and exporters of goods from other countries to the U.S. who were unable to find a market for their finished goods.

Consequently, such companies started laying off their staff in thousands and hundreds of thousands and this continues to this day.

Little by little, some countries had then declared they were officially in recession and their home governments put in place intervention financial packages in banks particularly, and some other manufacturing concerns aimed at “jump starting” economic activities again.

Fortunately, we have also received reports in recent times that some of these countries are out of recession and things are picking up again and looking bright generally.

Some of the rescued banks and manufacturing concerns have again started declaring billions of dollars in profit and have started to employ staff again.

As all these things were then happening, one question I asked myself was “where did all the money in losses disappear to? Did they vanish into thin air or what exactly happened to them?”

I pondered over this question every now and then until I came up with one answer – the money never went anywhere; it is invested in real estate and wherever else the banks put them.

What I also observed is that economic activities slowed down not because some nasty thing happened but basically because of fear that triggered the wrong thinking in business people and consequently affected their actions!

How I know this is because as I said earlier, the monies never vanished into thin air and when banks and business people became a lot more confident, economic activities returned – in essence, everyone’s thinking changed again positively!

My reason for taking time to write all the preceding paragraphs is to make you, dear reader, to realise that it is peoples’ thinking that really drives their actions. If you could just take time to ponder this statement, you will begin to think positive thoughts about what you really want in life and your world would begin to also change positively too.

People usually limit themselves by thinking the resources of the world are limited and would become exhausted soon and so they limit their thinking again by believing only the rich can have access to it.

They further erroneously believe that the only way to become rich is by dishonest acts and so they then try to engage in a lot of wrong doing just to make it in life. This is exactly what wrong thinking results in.

The world God created is filled with abundant of resources that can NEVER EVER be exhausted. How do I know? Let us look at Sacred Scriptures in Matthew 6: 24 - 27 where Jesus said, “No one can be a slave of two masters; he will hate one and love the other; he will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

This is why I tell you not to be worried about the food or drink you need in order to stay alive, or about clothes for your body. After all, isn’t life worth more than food? Isn’t the body worth more than clothes? Look at the birds; they do not sow seeds, gather a harvest and put it in barns; yet your Father in heaven takes care of them! Aren’t you worth much more than birds? Can any of you live a bit longer by worrying about it?”

Notice that Jesus said do not be worried over these things. Most people worry over these things, end up having hypertension, then stroke and then die.

This is exactly why Jesus says you cannot live a bit longer by worrying over these things because God who created you, everyone and me is more than able to provide for all of us if we would just believe by thinking the right thoughts always with gratitude to God.

Some people may also misunderstand when Jesus talks about loyalty to God and despising money. Let us look again at 1 Timothy 6: 9 – 10, “but those who want to get rich fall into temptation and are caught in the trap of many foolish and harmful desires, which pull them down to ruin and destruction.

For the love of money is a source of all kinds of evil. Some have been so eager to have it that they have wandered away from the faith and have broken their hearts with many sorrows”.

Notice that this scripture passage states like Jesus also said the love of money. So it is the love of money and not money itself that is the problem here since money is required to pay bills of every kind.

If one’s search for money leads one to many foolish and harmful desires by engaging in wrongdoing like prostitution, armed robbery, stealing from the office, selling inferior goods, etc, then such an individual loves money and that scripture is referring to them to desist from such.

On the other hand, if one’s conduct of business transactions or services brings money with commensurate or greater benefit to the receiver of the goods or services without harm to oneself, then all is in order.

Again, I say it is an individual’s thinking that drives his or her actions and so if you understand this, I need you to also understand that the world God created has abundance of resources that cannot run out.

If you could just develop this mindset, you will never limit your thinking to only what you think you can have but to anything created by God and thank Him for creating abundant resources. With this mindset, you can have whatsoever you desire in life legitimately and without stress or  pain to yourself or anyone else.

There you have another great wealth secret!
