Keep the financial fire blazing

imagesBlazing passion is real power. It is the ying (feminine) and the yang (masculine) coming together. Passion can create anything you want and inspire you to accomplish the impossible.

Passion will move mountains and bring business success.

Passion is the energy blend of containment (ying) and force (yang) that results in a fire-building cosmic dance of creation.

Passion is the on-going implementation of your business (the container for your desire) from a space of still mind, penetrated with the force of conscious action.

Un-stilled mind will always think in terms of purpose, profit, and utility. Mind acting without pause will be aggressive and full of activity.

When mind is stilled thru meditation, activity will disappear and action will appear –and there is a great difference between the two. Activity has utility; conscious action becomes pure joy, pure beauty. You act not because something has to be achieved; you act because action is a joy, a dance. You act because you are so full of energy.

And all your joyful dancing cannot but result in a blazing fire of fulfilling abundance.

Meditation = Happier Wealth

Incorporating a meditation into your business strategy enables you to freely turn your conscious focus inward, stop the reactive, egoic-mind from running the show, and tap into resources that help you feel present and connected to your higher vision.

By improving your inner landscape, meditation helps you to respond to external events with more awareness and clarity, and hence, change the business results that you deliver over time.

Recently, I asked a successful finance director, who has been incorporating meditation into his business life for several years now, his own experience of the benefits of committing to a meditative practice.

Along with some expected benefits:

-Being un-rattled by issues arising when things seem to be going wrong.

-Ability to be present, to observe, not to engage in negative emotion, not because I am suppressing it – but genuinely because I do not need to go there anymore.

He also offered up the most yummy, juicy benefit:

I am happier! … AND what is a surprise – now becoming wealthier! …. Meditation energy is the type of energy that lets the stuff you no longer want go and allows in the new good stuff ….

I had to drop my old ways of doing business which worked financially, but were not based around happiness. So I had to drop some old ways of thinking – including with it ways that made money – without knowing how I was going to make a new way work financially. When you realize you want to do that, that’s a ‘Gulp’ moment! 

But when you have your own heart on your side, well that’s alignment, and things you cannot foretell start to engage, to happen and you get there.

How perfect is that –well said Richard!

Shiny & New

December 20, 2011 by Comments | 0

Many years ago, when I ran a tax and bookkeeping service, this time of year brought budgets, ledger reviews, and reconciliations. I worked with many small business owners helping them to organize, categorize, and refresh. There is a beauty in this process that starts the tangible completion of the year and a natural fresh-start.

Take a minute and list the top 5 things that come to mind in terms of what it would take to polish your business finances. Think of the finance aspect of your business as a snow globe and polish it up….give it some attention….make it shiny….so that the vision you have for 2012 can be clearly viewed.

Here’s mine:

1. Enter all accumulated receipts into check register and update budget
2. Make sure transfer deposit gets made
3. Burn a 7-day candle to release ANY and ALL past mistakes regarding money
4. Block time on 2012 calendar to complete 2011 books and taxes
5. Take a walk and focus on gratitude for all my needs being met PLUS in 2011

Be spontaneous when you create your list AND also be spontaneous in what shows up for you these next few weeks regarding completing and polishing your finances…..play, have fun, and sit-down-and-do-whatever-you-need-to-do.

Allow and prepare to receive your expectations and beyond.

Here’s a list with some things you can do before the end-of-the-year to potentially cut your taxes for next year:
