“The Energy of Money” Principle 2

I was finally able to finish the second principle in Maria Nemeth’s book, “The Energy of Money.” This chapter was a little bit challenging for me as I had to faces some truths about myself. As Maria puts it in her book, “The only thing that keeps us from wanting to know who are is the fear of who we might be.”

The focus of this chapter was understanding “Your Standards of Integrity.” The core of who you are. Your pure self. I can remember a time when I was trusting, loving, and had no bitterness about people or life. I suppose that is what forty years of living will do to an old chap.

Nemeth introduces the concept of “Coming Full Circle with Integrity.” Picture a circle that has a “gap” that leaves it incomplete. The gap is suppose to represent what is missing in the completeness of your true self. When I focused on that gap, the one dominating thought that kept “popping up” was love. At first, I thought, “What does this have to do with my relationship with money?” The answer came as quickly as the question did; Everything. My relationships with my boss, my co-workers, and the customers I server all reflect on my ability to have money flow into my life. And right now, my future isn’t looking to good with my employer as my “love” hasn’t been present there with any of them.
