Article Directory :: Self-Improvement/Motivation Articles
In response to a recent article, a reader commented (I've edited out the personal details):
"Regarding your piece 'Are You Missing Something', would you like to give your readers some ideas of what businesses give other people more in use value than you receive in cash value?"
"The bulk of people reading your articles are probably reading all the creating your own reality stuff as well and are probably in big corporations or dead end jobs."
"Your statement makes it sound very simple but hey, tell us more, what sort of business did Wallace D. Wattles have in mind here?"
"I actually agree that the intention is that you can not meditate money into your life, I am happy to put some effort in but I will not achieve it in the big corporation I work for!!"
Hmmm...
"... I will not achieve it in the big corporation I work for!!"
Pray tell...
Who made that decision?
The truth of the matter is that's *exactly* where you'll achieve it - in the "big corporation" you work for right now!
You see...
The concept of giving more in use value than you receive in cash value can be applied to any business or profession.
And...
The absolute best business or profession to begin applying it to is the one you're in right now.
People frequently tell me (and I hear this one a lot) that they're working for a "big corporation" and/or are in a "dead end job" and although they're not putting their "all" into it right now (in other words, they're doing just enough to not get fired), when they get a "better job" (whatever that is) or into their own business "someday" they'll give it everything they've got.
Well...
Guess what?
Ain't gonna happen.
And...
If by chance it does...
It won't last.
Why?
The Universe just doesn't work that way.
Here's the deal...
*Only* when you make constructive use of what you *already* have will the Universe see fit to give you more.
*Only* when you make constructive use of the job you *already* have will the Universe see fit to advance you.
If there's a "secret" out there this is it.
In order to get what you want, you *must* make constructive use of what you *already* have.
For example...
Let's say you're currently employed by a big fast food chain flipping hamburgers (or whatever it is they do nowadays :-)) at a local outlet for $10.00 an hour...
And...
You don't want to be doing that for the rest of your life.
Maybe you want to move up into management...
Maybe you want to get into a different profession...
Maybe you want your own business...
Maybe you want to own your own restaurant...
Maybe you're not quite sure exactly what you want...
Only that you want more than what you have right now.
You begin by making constructive use of the job you already have right now.
Starting today...
Put everything you've got into everything you do...
Strive to become the best hamburger flipper that's ever walked the face of the earth...
Give your *present* customer (your employer) more, far more, in use value than you receive from them in cash value.
Instead of trying to skate by giving them $5.00, $8.00, or $10.00 worth of value for the $10.00 an hour you're getting paid hoping you don't fired or laid off...
Give them $20.00, $30.00, $40.00, $50.00, $100.00 worth of value for the $10.00 an hour you're getting paid...
With the *intention* of getting what *you* want and the *faith* that you'll get what you want.
Then...
And only then...
Will the Universe begin to move that which you want towards you and present you with the opportunity or opportunities necessary to receive it.
The necessary opportunity or opportunities may not (and most likely won't) come from your present employer...
However...
Know that the necessary opportunity or opportunities will come...
That's the way it works.
In his book "The Personal Power Course", Wallace D. Wattles, best known for his classic masterpiece "The Science of Getting Rich", wrote:
"The essential point to remember is that you must reach what you want by ACTING; by doing things. And today, you can only act where you are, and on the things that are within reach. Do not waste anytime straining after the things that are out of reach, or longing for the things which belong to the future; ACT, today on the people and things within reach today, but act ALWAYS with your mind set on GETTING WHAT YOU WANT. Act in the full faith - the positive knowledge - that you WILL get what you want; make every act a positive act, and an act of faith. Do not sit down and try to ATTRACT the thing you want to you; but begin to move toward the thing you want, and you will find it coming to meet you. Action and reaction are equal; and the person who steadily and purposefully moves forward with one thing in view becomes a center toward which the thing he seeks is drawn with irresistible power..."
Therein lies the *real* "secret"! :-)
