Remember “Ask and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you; for everyone that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.” (Matthew 7:7)

 Most folks overlook this as a prosperity secret. Often they let riches pass them by, just because they do not ask the help of a Higher Power to learn how to attain their good.

Begin to visualize yourself, not as just becoming more prosperous, but as becoming financially independent. Emma Curtis Hopkins has written “Whatever is oftenest viewed with the inner eye reveals its secrets and hands out its gifts.” It is a delightful process and very stimulating to the mind and it really is not daydreaming if you dare to get definite in your thinking.

Mrs. Hopkins also pointed out “Success lies in being one-pointed, and in rejecting all that distracts from one’s victorious objective”. Why be mildly prosperous when, by being mentally “one-pointed” you can be completely free from financial care, so that you will have time and money to develop other phases of your being that can be a credit to you and all mankind?

You really are equipped to master life in its every phase! You do not have to compromise in life, if you are willing to let go of the idea of compromise. By ceasing needless activities, associations and relationships; by ceasing to be bothered with needless chatter with scatter-minded people, you will find that financial independence is right around the corner, much nearer than you previously assumed.

Conservation of thought, energy and emotional drive are all necessary for financial independence. In order to become permanently prosperous you must dare to be different! At least for a while. The time for daring is the moment when the stakes are high. We must be willing to risk as much in order to win much- we must be willing to put all to the test.

This leads to a joyous, satisfying life filled with congenial associations and rich experiences, a life free from nonessential activities. When you decide to become financially independent, you immediately make up your mind to cease caring “what people think” and dare to concentrate on your goal. As you become more prosperous, you will not care what you previous associates think anyway, because you will undoubtedly be forming new, more satisfying, and more congenial relationships in keeping with your expanding vision.

Think BIG!

  The most successful people think big, not limiting themselves or their associates to their ideas and opinions. If you desire to  be free of a lot of limited thoughts and petty opinions, begin to think big.

Concentrate on financial independence and you will “lose” the petty thinkers along the way. You’ll cultivate enduring, satisfying friends who will help you up the ladder of success.

Hold on to your dreams and visions of great success, prosperity and financial independence until others of like mind come along to help make it come true.

Dust off your dream

If you have unfulfilled dreams and visions of greater prosperity and success somewhere in your mind, don’t keep them there any longer. Dare to bring them out and dust them off. Dare to begin thinking of the possibilities of financial independence even if, at this point, they seem impossible to fulfill.  

Often you may not have succeeded because you felt that somehow you had to succeed alone and the thought overwhelmed you; it seemed easier to settle for failure. Form your partnership with God.  God’s guidance about your financial situation will never lead you anywhere but to greater prosperity. Begin every day asking for, listening for and expecting specific guidance about all your projects.

Remember that God is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent and omniactive. Remind yourself of that frequently. Acceptance of that allows you to calmly receive whatever guidance and advice you get. God opens ways where there seems to be no way. Grasp this truth and hold fast to it. Businesses have been saved, fortunes built, discoveries made, inventions perfected and the dead restored to life after the sentence of defeat has been made by humanity. Fortunately God’s goodness does not stop at the limits of our human vision. Keep steady, keep your faith, keep your courage and remember that God opens ways where, to the human mind, there is no way.

Another secret of financial independence (after we decide we won’t settle for less than the best in life) is the law of concentration and conservation. Conservation of thought, energy and emotional drive are all greatly needed for financial independence.

You have, I’m sure, seen people who seem to prosper for a period.   Their business may even be booming. But suddenly the bottom drops out and they experience dire failure, from which they seem unable to recover. In almost every instance, if you look closely, you will discover that those people’s emotions, attitudes and way of life became scattered, thus depleting them of their previous fine ability to prosper.

Most business activities prosper as long as their personal lives succeed. But when marital difficulties arise, their businesses go on the rocks, too.

 We are all creatures of emotion and deep feeling. Our deep feeling can “make or break us” financially. They are your God-power and your go-Power. Guard them closely because your emotions are the richest gold mind you will ever own. Scattered thinking, scattered emotions, scattered actions lead to a scattering of your mind power. This, in turn depletes your physical energy that is essential for prosperity; it depletes your brain energy that is needed for an intelligent course of action or plan for prosperity; it saps your emotional drive that is needed to put your prosperity plans to work.

One of the desires of all prosperous minded people is to be self-supporting and financially independent. Poverty is a universal fear of mankind.

 Once you learn the power which you release through prosperous thinking, it will dawn upon you that the possibility of financial independence isn’t so far-fetched after all; you will realize that it isn’t just meant for other folks, but that it is meant for you too!

To one person financial independence might simply suggest a well paying, dependable job, through which he could consistently meet financial obligations and feel free from daily financial demands.
Another person might be thinking in millionaire terms. As you progress financially, your ideas of financial independence expand so that you want to have greater and greater financial freedom. Your definition of financial freedom will change as you grow.

The desire to be self-supporting and financially independent is a divine desire that has been implanted in the intellectual and emotional nature of man to help him progress, to achieve and to build a worthwhile life for himself.

The desire for financial independence – no matter what your definition) is a divine idea that should not be suppressed, but expressed constructively through the mind of man. When it is expressed man is able to experience the satisfaction and fulfillment that God wants him to have.

Don’t accept things as they are

Dissatisfaction with present financial conditions is the first step toward attaining financial independence. Don’t settle – don’t settle for things as they are.

You have the power, through prosperous thought and action, to change them into something far better and more satisfying. This is your key to financial independence – if you dare to use it.

Listen to your “Divine Dissatisfaction” and act on it. You have to let go, refuse to accept an unsatisfactory situation before the right doors will open.
