I desire wealth, but I don't want to sell my soul to get it, and as far as I'm concerned, if I have to spend more than 60% of my time doing things that don't nourish who I am and how I'm rigged, then forget it! Pursuit of wealth should be a joyous journey--filled with God-vistas and victories. Not something you dread sitting down to do, or getting up to do.
I've come to this thought as a result of trying to learn more about making money on the Internet. My head has been swimming with terms and buzz words, and if I hear the phrase "it's simple" one more time, I think I'll scream. Because you know what? It's not simple! Sure, it may be for some people if that's how their minds work, but it's kind of like playing chess ... you have to think out many moves ahead. Unfortunately that's not me. I'm not a strategist, and chess has always been quite difficult for me. So I'm really not a great candidate to be an Internet marketing whiz.
I'm not sure what decision I've come to regarding how to move forward. I can certainly see that ecommerce is wide open with possibilities for profit. But my desire for wealth, I believe, is from a healthy perspective, not greedy. You see, I believe it's God's will for me to prosper in every way. (I don't want to earn a living. I want to earn a giving.) I know that I have an excellent work ethic, and I'm certainly not afraid to work hard, but most of all I want to work at what nourishes my soul. As a writer, I want to write and make money from it. I guess I'll just have to pray and rest while I await some solid direction. Surely the Lord can lead me to those things that will increase me financially, without me going bonkers in the process.
Maybe I can find "my place" in the Internet terrain. I just need to search for it, expect it, and not settle for less! Can anyone relate?
