What True Success Looks and Feels Like

It's difficult to write about living in the "stressless here and now" without sounding hokie.

I want to first say that I'm not a part of any organized religion and consider most of them well-past ridiculous, I don't know a thing about Yoga and I don't chant strange words while sitting cross-legged in a park..

Do you remember when you were a child and you had the ability to simply exist and enjoy your time on this beautiful planet?

If you grew up in poverty, this ability was steamrolled at a very young age and as everyone around you was dealing with more stress than is fair to any human being. Almost all of it was rooted in the lack of money.

Somewhere along the line you probably told yourself that life isn't like the way you thought it was and it's just not reality. I'm sorry my friend but you were wrong. Simply existing IS our natural state and there's nothing closer to reality.

Most of your inability to do this today is stemming from financial concerns, yet people think that the more money they accumulate the less stress they'll have. This is only true with very intelligent people and.... more often, when you have a lot of money, your problems and concerns get bigger and your life becomes much more stressful.

With that - it can be said that financial freedom and the freedom to obtain your birthright can be accomplished with enough money to maintain your current lifestyle for longer periods of time.

If, with the exact lifestyle you're living today, all your bills were paid for a year, you didn't have to worry about illnesses wiping out your income and your vehicles were dependable, warranted and owned-possessions, would you have the ability to just exist and enjoy the "here and now?"

If so then this is the place you must get-to, but what most people do with this money is not "obtain their birthright." They use the money to create more stress, more things to worry about and a higher lifestyle filled with bigger problems that zap the joy from your soul.

You've probably decided that to free yourself from financial stress and to "live in the now" you must first make more money because it's all gong to maintain your current lifestyle.

I'm a businessman and my days are spent doing nothing more than solving problems - most of them are financial.

I believe that financial struggle is a test used by nature to see if you're ready to go on to the next level of life. If you can't handle the small problems you won't be able to handle the big problems, so there you'll stay. If you panic, if you lose your patience, if you quit, if it all turns to anger and hate.... there you will stay and fester in your own misery.

The point is: problems aren't going to vanish. When we learn to tackle them confidently and peacefully the next test will come and with it will come the money..., and with that, if our plan stays in-line, will come the space in your soul for the ultimate contentment and mastery of life.

I'm a financial success but I am no more intelligent than you, I look goofy when I'm naked and I feel like an idiot when my engineer-friends start talking about computer science.

I was born and raised in the most violent ghetto in America, so if I can do it... you can too.

The ultimate level in life is to just "be" - existing in the here and now, content and connected to your natural state.

I also believe it builds our immune systems and those around us pick up on this energy. It attracts whom we are ready to attract to our lives and it's the cleansing of one's soul and spirit. It also sets one's mind free to take life to the next level and spend more time in the here and now.

In your daily quest for financial freedom, don't increase your lifestyle. Resist the bombardment of temptation to spend and only buy the things that maintain your current lifestyle. Don't spend a penny on anything that is not absolutely necessary, such as; food, housing and electricity.

Instead of associating joy with materialistic crap, each time you're tempted to buy something that's unnecessary, put that money aside and train your brain to "associate joy to financial freedom and being one step closer accomplishing your nature state and birthright."

Do that for a year or for as long as it takes to reach the level of life where you're no longer stressed about maintaining your current lifestyle.

Then see if you can live in the "here and now" at will.

You'll feel a very easy calm, your heart rate will decrease, your breathing will get easier and you'll feel a very soulful, quiet connection to nature..

If you can do this... you reached a higher level of living than most billionaires and you are a true success.

Don't just dabble in it. Do it as often as you can and for as long as you can.

It's your birthright.
