Did you know that the truly wealthy individuals on this earth have a certain mindset about yard sales, and that if we can adopt the same attitude, it will actually put us in a position to begin receiving greater wealth? (I'm talking about real wealth... meaning the monetary kind AND non-monetary prosperity.)

Whether or not you believe in God, I think it is agreeable that there is One Source from which all things proceed. Scientists start with the fundamental principle that 'Energy Is', and that all things are simply a manifestation of the same energy. Theologans begin with the fundamental principle that 'God just IS.' Whichever way you want to call it, the key point here is that we have hidden untapped resources within us, that the Universe is prepared to provide us with everything we need in order to develop to our fullest potential. God is ready and willing to send you the help you want so desperately, but this is a lawful Universe, and before all good things can flow into your life, YOU must operate in a lawful way. You must have a mindset which is in harmony with the fundamental (and DEPENDABLE) principles upon which prosperity is based. If you feel that you are not prospering the way you would like, it is simply because you have lived in violation of certain principles of which you have not been aware. That's good news, because that means that all you lack is an understanding of the laws of prosperity.

I'd like to give you a brief example. See if the following idea makes sense to you, and if it doesn't seem like a very simple but powerful idea... one which would be very easy to follow:

Consider this... All things are created with a specific purpose in mind. That old chair in your garage under the sawdust from your miter box was created for a purpose. If it is not filling the purpose for which it was created, you should let it go. Let it be somewhere where it can fill the purpose of its creation. The jeans from 1987 need to go. They were created to be worn, and somewhere in this world is someone who will use and appreciate them right now. Besides, you don't feel good in them anyway, and they were created to be appreciated.

You'll feel better in clothes that fit you as you are, and which will put you in the right mindset to make more effective progress on your health goals. I'd rather have a nearly empty closet of clothes that fit me well, than a closet full of things that make me feel horrible. Nature, or God, will help me fill that vacuum.

When you let that chair go, you are making room for something better to come into your life... you have created a vacuum, and nature always fills a vacuum. You are doing something that the truly wealthly people do. If you sell it for pennies on the dollar at a yard sale, you have your reward. Clean it up, GIVE it away, and you open yourself up to receive MULTIPLE times its value.

Test it out. Feel good about operating on principle. Believe that better is coming, because by LAW, it must.
