Myths which are believed in tend to become true.

I, often, ponder about the imbalance of wealth and power of mind to manifest the fallacies of myth germane to wealth creation that eludes all of us in some capacity.

Wealth is created in mind. It’s those seeds of thoughts that either grow thoughts conducive to the wealth creation or to the fallacies of myth that yearn for wealth in eternity.

Wealth gets attracted to those who understand how to transform and manifest their own financial destiny. As oxymoron it sounds, wealth is a spiritual transcendence more so than material possession. Wealth remains with those who know how to transform and manifest their knowledge of inner self, and it’s nexus with the higher spiritual being to transmute thoughts into their own financial reality.

What are the fallacies of myth about wealth? Well, my attempt here is to shed light on few that I’ve known.

Myth# 1 It takes money to make money -

Wealth dreamers visualize wealth as an outer experience. In their stereotypical mind, it takes money to make money. They find comfort with their fallacy of myth that allows lack of money as an excuse to create wealth. Wealth incubators, on the other hand, understand that wealth is a byproduct of the brain weaves that create passion backed by strong and sustained action. They experience the process from within. They begin their thoughts with end in mind. They concentrate their focus on the visual end of their dream to drive the entire process in reverse. For example, when I embarked in the hotel business, I visualized owning a hotel with sense of relaxation and fulfillment. I did not allow thoughts of lack of funding to intervene. In reality, I did not have enough capital to purchase a hotel. But, with the inner desire and clarity of thoughts, I transmuted the desire into reality by focusing solely on what I wanted. It was truly an inner experience.

The truth is - “Wealth begins with end in mind and not by the challenges of the beginning.”

Myth # 2 Lady luck loves wealth.

I am sure that at some juncture, we all have had thoughts of “, gosh, I am not lucky”, or “Will I be ever lucky?”. The fact is that we all are lucky if we bust the fallacy of the myth that wealth is an experience beyond our control. Wealth shall never be an object to seek. It’s a byproduct of passion that drives our actions everyday. I’ve found that when passion kicks in full gear, a relax and well balanced spiritual mind can transcend any crisis, problems or failures into an experience of wisdom and refinement of raw thoughts to achieve the result. Wealth never gets lured to those who have consumption of wealth as an object of visualization. I live a simple life. I do not drive fancy cars, nor I seek material possessions, yet I’ve found that by keeping values mixed with emotions to achieve the goals provide fulfillment beyond my wildest dreams. I’ve lost money investing in stocks. That has not deterred my belief to seek safer ways to invest and take risks to refine my thoughts with lessons learned from the failures.

The truth is - “Lady luck loves those who do not quit.”

If we command our wealth, we shall be rich and free. If our wealth commands us, we are poor indeed.
Edmund Burke (1729-1797) British political writer.

Myth # 3 Wealth is all about materialism.

Wealthy are always seen as the self centered, material driven people. It creates a sense of guilt to harbor thoughts of wealth creation. Truthfully, as oxymoron it may sound, most true wealth achievers are more spiritual than most of us can imagine. This stems from the fact that they do not seek money but rather happiness and fulfillment. World has seen Andrew Carnegie, a steel magnate, giving away most of his wealth. He firmly believed that happiness did not come from achieving wealth but rather from sharing it with others. I’ve found by my own experience, that unless I allow my mind to alter life-style in footsteps with higher financial gains, I find contentment and lasting happiness within when I achieve my dreams. Wealth never comes across as the chief reason to achieve dreams.

The truth is - “Wealth is an inner, spiritual experience.”

Myth # 4 What is your myth?

As I mentioned, these fallacies of myth about wealth has plagued millions of people. You may be an exception, but if you are not, I’d love to hear your version of fallacy of myth about the wealth. Do you have one?

Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.
-Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) American naturalist, poet and philosopher.
