ATTITUDES OF LOVE & JOY

ATTITUDES of LOVE and FINANCES www.LIVEforeclosureFREE.com

I’m pretty sure you’re wondering what love has to do with money. If this saying, ‘the way I do anything is the way I do everything’, is true for you, then how you love might also have something to do with your financial situation. I’m not saying that you have to love in order to be wealthy. There are plenty of wealthy people who you wouldn’t want to live next door to, but implementing these attitudes below in your life can bring more joy than you ever dreamed possible. Who wouldn’t want to be wealthy and feel loved and accepted daily? My family practices the attitudes listed below so we can flourish in every aspect of our lives, including our finances. Are we perfect at it? Not in the least. But the more we focus on these things, the more we’ll benefit by them. There is another saying, “What is in the heart eventually comes out of the mouth.” This is solid truth. Negative thoughts lead to negative feelings. Negative feelings lead to negative reactions, which eventually are voiced. If you don’t think your attitude has anything to do with your current situation, think again. Quiz yourself below and see if any of these apply to you. Do you live by attitudes of love every day or do you expect others to meet your needs?

1. I HONOR YOU BY HONORING MYSELF, AND OTHERS, WITH LOVING ATTITUDES. If I’m agitated most of the time, should I expect others to treat me with love or respect? 2. I VALUE YOUR OPINIONS EVEN WHEN THEY OPPOSE MINE. Do I force my opinions on others? Do I always have to be right? Is it “my way or the highway”? 3. I CONTINUE TO SEEK WAYS TO GROW EMOTIONALLY TO BETTER OUR RELATIONSHIP AND MY OWN HEALTH. Studies show that emotional health leads to better physical health. “As a man thinketh, so is he.” The Bible


4. I AM FORGIVING AND DON’T KEEP A RUNNING SCORE OF WRONG DOINGS. Does bitterness keep you locked up? Do you make a list of those who hurt you and how many times they did it? 5. I PLAN AT LEAST ONE FUN EVENT EACH MONTH AND SMALLER ONES DURING THE WEEK, Anthropologist and social scientist Margaret Mead presented her cultural findings to the American people stating, “children find joy when they are taught to work hard and play hard”. Take time to be with family and friends and by doing so, you will teach cultural values. 6. I EXERCISE TO AID IN A HEALTHY MIND AND BODY. Scientists have proved that being unhealthy leads to a short life. Find an exercise routine, even if its only 10 minutes a day. It’s a start! 7. I FIND WAYS TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU. Communication is NOT natural. It takes work. Learn through books, internet, mentors, and keep working at it. It’s worth it! 8. I AM GRATEFUL FOR WHAT I HAVE. If you live life griping about what you don’t have, you are missing opportunities to be grateful for what you do have. 9. I SHARE PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITIES. Insist on accountability, for yourself and your family. If you don’t, then your children will see it, react to it, and learn not to obey when you want them to be accountable for something. 10. I WILL FOCUS MY MIND ON MY SPOUSE DAILY, WITH A GRATEFUL HEART. If you are focused on your spouse and are grateful for them daily, even when they say or do something that gets under your skin, there will be no room for thoughts of another. 11. I GIVE YOU THE FREEDOM AND SUPPORT YOU NEED TO GROW OR ENHANCE YOUR BUSINESS VENTURES.


Definition of Support = “To sustain, withstand, endure, undergo, to bear or hold up, to collaborate, advocate, to maintain.” Any questions? If you can get your heart right, your mind will be clearer to make better decisions relationally and financially. Each of the statements above hold a decision for you to make. If you regularly shy away from responsibilities, even without purposefully deciding to do so, realize you are not alone. Most of human existence has been lived in an unconscious state of mind because of the great disconnect between the head and their heart. Is it possible to bring the badly needed connection to a conscious level? DEFINITLEY…IF… you focus on what you want. A better relationship with God, family, wealth, any of it can be yours if you keep persevering and working toward your goal. On the next page I will give you a copy of the declarations I just talked about. I'd highly recommend you print them out on nice paper and put on your wall. If they're in front of you, it is much easier to remember to seek ways to improve your relationship. IT WORKS! You CAN do it!
