Without rethinking the old conditioning which we are reminded of growing up, we forfeit bettering ourselves in the future. For example phrases like. "Money is the Root of all Evil. We are destined to be workers. I cannot because I'm average." On and on...
Most all of us are conditioned to complain on a regular basis about the job we hate, our lack of income, the government, our old worn out living conditions and many other things...long before we are willing to do anything about it. Especially change from within, where our problems really lay.
The reason many tend to reach and all time low in life before they become aware of this need for such an inward change, is we are creatures of habit. Lazy as well. We think the way we do because of conditioning, and we think our actions and thoughts to be well in the range of normal.
So, we tell ourselves we are okay mentally and on the inside. Nothing wrong there... We then busy ourselves looking for outside change. How to make more money, buy that new house, new car, new lifestyle.
Take a look at our bodies. Are you healthy, working out, and dieting using the top methods taught today? Keeping in shape and honoring your body? Probably not. Why not?
Do you even understand that we need a dose of exercise to keep fit? If you are over weight and out of shape, guess what. It means you are too lazy to go that extra mile.
And, we say we are too busy working for others all day and giving all we got to fill the need for making more cash in order to live on what little cash we make.
Not exercising our bodies means we are not exercising our minds. We are really the walking dead. Moving in mass down a dead end road.
We are not seeking change because everything appears to be normal. At least we think. We trade time for cash. So we think this is the way things will continue.
Is your life limited and on a dead end road. We must use our mind to change things from the inside out. But, if we are neglecting our bodies and allow ourselves to be out of shape...Then we are probably failing to strengthen our mind and how we think, as well.

Yes the title should probably read Rich, Poor and Average. We all have 24 hours. It is what we do with that time that makes us all different.
By looking inward we see there are plenty more options and choices we are able to take, in a 24 hour day,and if we did work from within first, to change ourselves... A great prosperity can be achieved.
Rich or Poor, or average, we make the one hundred choices daily that keep us bound on one of these roads. We can change these daily choices and have our road become one of greatness. But first we have to change perspective and understand what and who we are.
Poor people who stay poor are defeated in thought. conditioned in a negative way, they have given up the fight. Only to remain on the same path.
Middle class types are set in their ways also and are conditioned to only put out so much effort, thinking why struggle. Life is too short, I want to enjoy my weekends! They will never be the boss and always be average.
Wealthy people are up at 5 in the morning, working out, challenging themselves with growth and developing new skills. Have put in a full day by noon continually work on balance and goals and envision prosperity all day long.
Each category has the same opportunities and the same 24 hour period of time. Wealthy people use this time wisely. Average people spend lots of their time doing things which does not move them forward, but they ink out some enjoyment for fear of working too hard.
You choose. Rich, or Poor. Yes there is in betweens. But to define ourselves we all can be put into some category of reference. But that isn't what I'm trying to say here.
I'm merely wanting to open the eyes of those of us who wonder why we cannot get ahead, cannot become wealthy and have a prosperous life.
We are all where we are because of our thoughts and actions before today. People struggle to change their situation by looking outside themselves when the very problems we face are within.
Thanks for the comment.
No one can really take care of you unless you're wiling to do it yourself - and this includes people who have addictions, (smoking, sex, drugs, alcohol, gambling, shopping and etc.). It takes a commitment to improve your own being - mind, body and spirit in order for one to truly become the person that he/she can potentially be and achieve in the course of a lifetime. This would include personal happiness, great health, monetary wealth, career achievements, (which includes running a successful online business), a spiritual relationship with their God and so on.
This is one of those articles, Rick that should be read by ALL WA members if anything just for motivation. To be blunt I don't make that statement all that often either!

Now I understand that to become successful I will have to lead in giving more value, help and information to others. Learning to give before receiving is a new concept for many here online.
In fact my thoughts of needing more cash have expanded into knowing my first and overall need is to give the right value, and my needs of cash will be fulfilled.
For almost two years I looked outward for change. An event to come along, perhaps. But now I know there is an inward process that needs to be born, nurtured and grown.
A far different mindset that wealthy and successful people already implement.
It is why I'm creating a new type training vessel which can repeat on many subjects, thus leveraging the masses by creating much needed value others are not creating in masses.
I'm done with Affiliate Marketing, sort of. Shoot, I'm conditioned to write articles! But slowly moving away from promoting WA. The very training I've received from books and others inspirational lifestyle changes has finally turned the light on.
I hope I can trigger change in others as I move toward learning to give more value to others.
