Focus On Vision To Build Wealth




 There can only be one answer to life, to peace, to hope.  Teach me LORD to bow before Your throne.  You are the WAY, the Truth, the Life, there’s only one way, teach me LORD, to bow before Your throne. (Cynthia's ramblings 11/26/2010)

Focus On Vision: What is Your Goal?

A few months ago I took the business ethics pledge.  I did this for a reason.  I am solely committed to certain principles in my life and want to reflect that in all that I do.  Life has a way of trying to pull us away from the things we hold most precious, and even when we are not meaning to, before we know it we have gone off course in our life and our values have taken a back seat.  It really depends on what is most important to you, however, and truly some decisions or actions don't show their resulting consequence until much further down the road. 

So I'm on this journey of business success and wealth building and want to stay true to my values.  There are so many Scriptures in the Bible that talk about money, in fact money is one of the most talked about subject in the Bible.  Why is this the case, you ask?  "Money answereth all things" Eccl 10:19.  What this means is that it reveals who you are, what you are really about.  Think of it: you must have it, or some form of wealth (be in currency or trade), to survive in this world society. The lack of it or lust for it will control your decisions, whether good or bad, even if you have it in abundance!

I'm not saying that money is bad, in fact it is not money that is evil but the "love of money is the root of all evil" (1 Tim 6:10.  So in this walk to business success and wealth building we must remember what money is and what it is not.  We must keep it in it's place.  For when we keep it in its proper place, it will serve us - we will not serve it

In coming posts we will discuss the proper way to approach building wealth.  For in any business whether brick and mortar or internet, proper steps must be taken to succeed and once success is obtained, proper steps must be taken to maintain that success.  I hope you will join me.
