How To Pursue Financial Happiness

Yes, Happiness does have a lot to do with money, because in order to live you have to have money. Money is the means of exchange that makes your dreams come true. There is no getting away from this fact.

Without money you will starve or at best live off the government on the bred line. This is hardly the way to pursue happiness since it will do very little for your self esteem.

Happiness, and this includes financial happiness comes from planning and controlling all aspects of your life. For instance, trading is one of the fastest ways to make a lot of money, and also one of the fastest ways to lose it. However, many people dream of the part time career of trading while doing the things they really enjoy. This is all very well, but unless you treat trading like a business, or a job you will fail before you succeed.

So if trading is your preferred way to riches you had better enjoy the financial markets. If you view it purely as a means for an income you may well fail and you certainly won't be happy.

Financial happiness is about doing what you enjoy doing for a living without being a slave to your work. However, particularly in the beginning you will probably find that you will have to deal with many things which are somewhat unpalatable, like the paperwork that inevitably goes with every job and few of us like. Of course, these tasks can and should be outsourced so that you can concentrate on those things you are best at.

Happiness and love go together. This may sound a bit corny but is a fact of life. When you are happy you will love your life, your job, your home and everything you do. Your vibrations are of a high frequency and you will find it easy to attract all those things you desire into your life including financial freedom.

Create Financial Freedom through happiness

Happiness is really the secret to all success in life and in particular your financial success. It begins with proving to yourself that you are worthy of success. You must believe that you deserve financial freedom and happiness, otherwise you will not attain it, no matter how hard you try.

There is a simple technique you should employ to ensure that you pursue your goal of financial freedom from the conviction that you deserve it. Being able to do this one big thing will make you happy and literally set you free. All self made millionaires know deep down that they deserve to be rich. In fact this .conviction is so deep rooted in their psyche; it is an integral part of who they are.

Now to the technique:

Don't be fooled by the simplicity of it: Each morning when waking up and each night before going to bed, think of five things why you deserve to be rich. Observe your thoughts. If you find that your mind throws up objections to your thoughts you can use a quick technique called Micro EFT to release this negativity.

You must not ignore your mind's objections, whatever you do. These objections are like sign posts. They are telling you where your subconscious mind is sabotaging you. Welcome these objections. Observe them, but do not dwell on them, just use a technique like Micro EFT to neutralise the negativity. You may have to do this repeatedly for a while. Do not worry about this. Micro EFT only takes seconds to do and you can easily do it 10 times during the day without interrupting your daily routines.

The average person needs to be told the same thing 50 times before a change will be made. This is why short simple processes always work better than long, complicated ones where you may get lost in the process and would not repeat it, because it is too difficult. This is particularly so when you start out learning about financial happiness.

And finally

Happiness derives from within you. It is one of the most important success principles.It will never come from outside of you. Once you understand this truism you will also understand that the economy really has very little to do with your financial success, but your inner state has everything to do with it. This is why you must be happy in order to create lasting wealth. Happiness will also ensure that you will be calm and relaxed. The calm mind sees opportunities a stressed mind can never see.
