Before we speak about money

Do you have an impression, that many books and films handle subject money without speaking directly about money? Great thinkers think about money, but they speak more often about other themes. Thinking about one thing and speaking about other is a practice that many people do when they are teaching other and give advises. Do successful people sharing their knowledge about getting rich with other, or speaks intentionally the secret language that other people should never understand? In our research we will see the answer for that question. We will look for causes and reasons of people’s behavior when they speak about money. Rich people speak often about money in an indirect way. We try to go the similar way. Our goal is to decode the secret, translate the indirect language in a direct one and turn hardly understandable words in meaningful thoughts. We begin with themes that are indirectly related to money and will get closer to our target: money. If rich people know really a secret that help them be successful, then we will discover that key for success. Otherwise, if we will see that successful people don’t have any mystery secrets, then we will search for the main reason of their success by getting rich.

Getting money is more than going to the cache machine, typing the password and getting the bank notes. Getting money is an extensive process that included many phases with number of actions. These actions help to get to success if they are correct done in a proper situation and at suitable moment of time. How could it be properly done, is related to many aspects of your life. Your life and your believe system about life are two prime components that influence your future. Will you in future be rich or not, depends completely on you. Your life in present time is a result of your earlier actions, decisions and believes. This should not mean that these results are your final achievements and no better future is to expect. Your future is open. You can influence on your future, you have the power and you know that. This knowledge is maybe the success key for you. If you don’t know whether you have the power or not, then you should look in your believe system and verify it. Your believe system is your most powerful instrument to make your dreams true.

Before we look at money, we will look at life. Money is only a little piece of our life. It is many other things and even more inspirational then the money is. Look at your life itself.  A big, precious and high-priced gift from your Creator was given to you. You can do many great things in your life. Think about your life. What is your life about? Think and you will rich your new level in success.

Life 

What is life about? Do you know? Do I know? Does somebody know? I think everybody knows the answer, though maybe not in particular words. Perhaps in every new life situation it would be a different answer from the same person? Maybe somebody prefers to answer: “I don’t know what life is about. Nobody knows.” It’s maybe many reasons to describe the answer in different words. The most interesting is not the words but the meening and feeling that are behind the words. Words can be different, descriptions can be opposing, but it shouldn’t indicate that the meaning is different.

Words are very important for our thinking. Words help us operate better with meaning of these words. Like letters X and Y are commonly used in mathematics as the name for an independent variable, so doing we always, when we learn a new word with his meaning. The word itself, as sound, as written word, is an expression for some meaning. Like a variable, the same word can stand for different meaning. It’s up to you, which meaning to put in the spoken or written words. Our mind operates not only with words, but also with feelings. All kinds of conscious and unconscious processes are playing together in order to give us what we trying to receive.

I don’t know what your knowledgebase in sciences like psychology or philosophy is. I can only guess what kind of people would be interested in reading of this book. I believe that most of this people will be trying to receive something. Somebody, who tries to receive something, has an inner need. That need, gives him motivation to do something about it. If you are reading this book, that means that you are on your way to something that shall improve quality of your life.

Why am I on the way to write this book? I am writing this book because of my hope that this process of writing will improve quality of my life. For me it is a try to receive new experience, new thoughts and new ideas with help of a new language. Actually English is my third language and I have many difficulties to express, what I mean. But this is also an interesting game with words. If you don’t know exactly what word do you need to express your feelings, then you try substituting some other words, synonyms. That game gives you opportunity to think about new words combinations. By thinking in such one manner, is easy to find many new ideas about subjects that are interesting for you.

In our life we are constantly playing very similar game with words that I described. But the foreign language is only an extreme example. Usually we don’t restrict ourselves in what language we are writing, speaking or thinking. But if we starting to think about some special subjects, where we are not so familiar with, than we operate with our words the same way, as they were from foreign language. We are not precise and exact as we would like to be. Even if we are really sure, that our expression is precise and exact than we don’t know though the reader or listener will have impressions that we want.

I am on my way to happiness. I assume that you are also on your way to your happiness. How would you describe your idea about happiness? Don’t be irritated that I am asking you. Actually by asking you I am asking myself. I think you saw that kind of literature already. Some writers use this method of giving an advise, recommendation or direction to the readers, trying to be some kind of a teacher, instructor or a master. They are doing so, because, in the first line, they are trying to teach themselves. The wish, to be a teacher for some body, is predicted by the wish to teach oneself. Many great teachers in history did so. They were doing teaching, because their ideas, born in inner world were growing and trying to expand to the outside world. With a purpose to approve the rightness of their idea and validate the successful appliance of that idea for everyone, the great teachers explained their ideas to other people, often careless of possible consequences, which the idea can produce. People always try to share their idea with everyone, if they understand the importance of their idea. A person’s idea or bundle of ideas, or even complete philosophy of life may help this person to make a step forwards to his goal, his vision of an ideal happiness.

A vision of an ideal happiness may vary by different people. However the majority of people believe that their individual happiness is related with satisfaction of people in their neighborhood. I believe, that this is one of main reasons way people try to collaborate and share their ideas about the united way to happiness for everyone. In this collaboration for united way one scenario is frequently repeated: first, an idea will be founded by many people as a good idea; then this people see the importance of collaboration; next, united people are trying to accelerate the process and push other people to join their group; finally people, who feel this pressure, try to resist to this pressure and at the same time to all ideas, that cams from collaborated people, who push too mach. An originally good idea later can land in a disaster and nonexistence.

People’s visions and Ideas are changing with time. Little by little or in big steps the main stream of thinking, of beliefs and life views is transforming to something new. In addition, the language changes as well. In this changeable world we know mach, but always not mach enough to be sure that our thinking is up-to-date. And we consequently review our ideas.  

Reviewing ideas is a good thing. Reviewing ideas allow us to move forwards in our thinking, grow in our belief system and make decisions that shall help find us an appropriate way to success. Behind our doing is always a decision to do something and, more important, to do something the way we choose. The same action can be filled with different meaning for a person. The action relies on a decision and decision is based on an idea that was found some time ago as a good one. The magic in this extensive psychological process is in the deepest original, initial aspiration. That aspiration gives life to all following process components in our mind. By reviewing our ideas, we just looking at our inner world and like a gardener try to create a beautiful garden that will give us joy, delight and pleasure. We see immediately where in our belief system are beautiful ideas growing. At the same time, we see without delay which ideas are not appropriate for harmony in our garden. It’s like a taste for good. We can easily recognize and differentiate between good and bad. By looking instantly at inner aspiration for goodness, we will always be in the state to see clear what is good for us. This is the way to success. By giving an attention to our aspiration we see what we really want. Not the thousand wishes that come today and tomorrow we forget about them. No, I am speaking about initial aspiration deep in mind and great in heart.
