What Level of Prosperity Consciousness Are You?
Here are some questions to determine how far along your prosperity consciousness and thinking process are:
What Good Can Come From This?
That title above can be one of the most empowering questions you ever ask. Because it’s all about repositioning and reorienting yourself, after an outcome that may not be very positive.
The Perception of Evil, Greedy Rich People
There really were people who felt that what Debra was doing was against their values – so they had no compunction to forcibly take her own money away from her – to use it in another manner they felt was “right” or “fair.” To see mature adults make that decision without a thought about the precedent it would set, or the principles it would break is scary AF to me.
The Prudence of Spending Money
Last post we discussed why being “realistic” was a bad premise. I suggested that a better word to use when considering something that might be considered expensive, extravagant, or not realistic is prudent. So let’s go back to Tom’s original question about the ocean front room vs. the dumpster behind Denny’s view, let’s explore it in the prudent context.
Expanding Your Prosperity Consciousness
We talk a lot here about expanding your consciousness. And a great deal about prosperity. So let’s tie them together and explore expanding your prosperity consciousness…
Working Hard to Stay Broke
If you live in the first world, you have to work really hard to remain poor. (Which often infuriates people when I say that.)
Prosperity and Human Dignity
I think we have to go back to my first assertion, that we need to navigate commentary, satire, and all forms of humor through the lens of where we are stealing people’s dignity. We have to attack, speak out against or criticize the behavior or ideas – not the person. Now this is where it gets messy for me…
Discrimination, Hate, and Danger in an Enlightened Society
We don’t all have to like everyone else. Sometimes we won’t all understand everyone else. But to be in an enlightened society, we must all allow every human the dignity they deserve.
Comedy, Politics and Prosperity (Part two)
Where we cross the line, from the standpoint of prosperity consciousness, is when we attack people, not their behaviors or ideas. Attacks against people for their physical appearance, family, religion, sexuality, or disabilities, robs them of their human dignity.
Comedy, Politics and Prosperity, part one
Much like the free press protects democracy, I believe the free speech of controversial comedians protects us from some of the darkest impulses of human nature. Great humor and satire only works when there is an element of truth to it. Otherwise it wouldn’t be funny.
