Poverty V.S. Financial Freedom
In this world crisis we are all panicking and losing hope, the panic is acceptable, and in my humble opinion it is a necessity. Adrenaline is an essential hormone that we need to make us become driven in our action, and when it is combine with noradrenalin our body/ mind will prepare him/herself for fighting.
Like the millennials will says: survival mode on. This means to switch our mind to not get depressed but to rise above adversity.
What is not acceptable is the part of losing hope, when we lose hope we will come in a state of mind where all will become darken and our serotonin will go low and we get depressed. Our sleep, appetite and mood will all be messed up. We will not see any way out. Dopamine will drop. The result of this hormone dropping is, that our body will get no reward for efforts we do. Our view will darken and our physic will reduce the production of melatonin and we will start aging. When we look in the mirror and or recent picture we will see our self aging.
These images will produce more depression and the vicious circle of depression and aging will start.
In resume we will feel mediocre, can’t fight for our dreams, no money is flowing so we will become impecunious. Mental and material poverty will strike in.
Our mind is a strong weapon that is the reason why we need to keep it loaded. (read article Balance).
The definition of poverty is the state of being inferior in quality or insufficient in amount.
So to stop being poor we must elevate our state of mind ,to raise our thinking in quality not in quantity so income can flow from all sources (read article streams of money) The way we elevate our mind is, by becoming aware of what is financial freedom.
How can we obtain financial freedom?
1. Be philanthropic:
This means more than to give, it is an effort, an individual or organization undertakes based on an altruistic desire to improve human welfare.
When we give, we will free our self and feel loftier. We must always remind our self’s that the first thing we have to give is, to give thanks to the Lord, be grateful for everything we have, the highs and the lows. (mal 3:10,11).
We must give to our fellowmen, be ready for to help our kind, when they are in need. Be open for hospitability. (rom 12:13)
Always give to the poor, Reserve from your income a little portion, to do charity. Give away money, food, and clothing you are not using anymore, and you will never lack of nothing. ( Prov 19:17)
When we give we are ensuring that everyone is improving, and have at least a starting point to increase their own dreams and become wealthy. This will bring our society on a higher rank and every one will become prosperous.
2. To receive:
When we pray we have to open our hands to receive health so we can build wealth. Wealth will come from all kind of sources of income. (in kind or monetary /passive or active Streams of money ) (Efs 6:07) / (Mat 21:22)
3. To manage:
Learn to manage your money and maintain in time the properties you have adhered. Always pay your debt and cost. Learn how to budget and stick on it.
And learn to say NO or to abstain from what is not necessary.
Prov 20:14-15 says:
Do not love sleep, or you will grow poor; open your eyes, and you will have plenty of food.
“Worthless, worthless!” says the buyer, but on the way out, he gloats.
There is an abundance of gold and rubies, but lips of knowledge are a rare treasure.…
When we learn to receive income from all kind of sources, manage it properly, so you can help even the needy one you have reach the level of financial freedom. You have become wealthy and prosperous.
