What Will Happen to Your Finances in the Future?
As you know, the world is having financial problems. When will the bad financial times end? Simple.
"Money: an idea backed with confidence." -- L. Ron Hubbard
Many people were not making their loan payments, so banks lost confidence in borrowers. They did not want to make loans that might not be paid back.
Investors lost confidence in the stock market. They were worried they will lose their money, so they sold their stock.
Many workers did not have confidence in their jobs. To be safe, they stopped spending as much money. They did not borrow money either because they were not sure they could pay it back.
Yet, for the economy to recover, people need to have confidence. As soon as they feel that confidence, the economy recovers.
Workers need to feel confident that they will keep their jobs. Banks need to have confidence that borrowers will pay them back. Businesses need to have confidence that people will buy their goods and services.
For you to succeed, you also need confidence. You need to know your future will be successful.
What most people do not realize is that their confidence in the future can be created with a mental illusion.
"Future is the creation of a future illusion and the working toward that illusion to make it a reality." -- L. Ron Hubbard
If you imagine a bad future, you'll look for ways to make it a reality. If you think you'll lose your job, your money or your health, you will!
On the other hand, if you create an illusion of a prosperous future, you find ways to make it come true. You envision a future where financial conditions dramatically improve. You see everyone succeeding.
By replacing a negative illusion of the future with a positive illusion, you have new confidence! Your financial condition improves. You make people around you feel confident, as well.
Step 1: Create an illusion of what you want in the future. Anything at all.
Perhaps in your future you feel happier and more secure. Maybe you get more work done, earn more money, help more people or feel healthier than ever.
Maybe you also imagine a world without poverty, war, insanity, pollution, crime or suffering.
Once you have created your future illusion, notice how you feel. Do you have more confidence? If not, keep creating an exciting, prosperous illusion until you do.
Step 2: Start making that illusion into a reality.
What can you do to make your illusion real? What can you do this month? What single thing can you do right now, that changes a tiny part of your illusion into reality?
Do that single thing now and you will have more confidence in yourself as you are on your way to a better future, with a lot more money in it!
