Thanks for the insightful post. As you point out, without reprogramming the subconscious to replace your limiting beliefs, all else is futile. Dick Ingersoll’s great blog post..Losing Weight Using the Law of Attraction

Just came across your blog and really agree with this post – especially in the current climate when money and financial issues are uppermost in people’s minds. In my work I’m finding that the link between money and fears around losing the security that people perceive it gives them causes many to stay ’stuck’. Your point about needing to take more risks and failing more is key, and can give people so much greater control over their lives – rather than fears around money controlling them!

Your point about Richard Branson and others focusing on what they want to achieve not to make more money but as a by-product of their goal of achieving more in their life is also an important point. I’m sure some would think that “they would say that wouldn’t they” with all their wealth, but that would be to miss the important point that they got what they focused on and thus the money followed. Another point I often make to people when they are anxious about money is that “money is not the only currency”, and by focusing attention on other areas of their life, they soon realise how ‘rich’ they are.

I look forward to reading more of your posts …

Money is a mean to an end, not an end in itself.
I completely agree with your argument Steve. In terms of money and happiness, I tend to believe it true that money can buy happiness. Of course it certainly doesn’t mean that you can always be happy without money.

Very nice and thought provoking article. Greed is a strange beast indeed but I agree that it is perfectly healthy to want more financial security without having to embark on a selfish pursuit only for personal gain. However, I think that globalization has altered the way that such pursuits manifest themselves. If your income comes from the community immediately around you it is clearer that promoting strong and considerate relationaships with your neighbors is more profitable in the long run. But if you never come 'face-to-face' with those who may be worse off from your advancements then it is easier to neglect the negative implications that your gains may inflict on others. baby gender predictor’s great blog post..Chinese Lunar Pregnancy Calendar - Fact, Fiction or Fun?

Money does not automatically bring happiness, but it certainly does give you options.

One of the best of those is the ability to help others.

Want of money makes people more greedy. Money is to be considered as a tool to just keep on ‘life’ better in various aspects. Greedy is the root for all evils1

I also agree with step 2, we are the masters of our own destiny. Achieving your goals and taking pride in your achievements (as well as enjoying the financial reward that comes along with this) is nothing to be ashamed of.
