To Tithe or Not to Tithe?

  • Filed under: Tithing
Sunday

Definition of Tithe:- to give or pay a tithe or tenth of (produce, money, etc.).

 

It is generally considered that tithing is only for church members to give so that the church can benefit the community with the monies it receives and that the tithe is simply a measure of obedience to God and a way to release money’s hold over your life.  Tithing is in fact the practice of giving away a tenth of your income, for the good of all, usually to a charitable cause.

 

Many believe that tithing is a very important process in wealth creation.  When you give, it should come from an abundance mentality and not a scarcity mentality.  If you are giving and feel that you cannot afford it, then it doesn’t help the process.   On the other hand, if you can give and do, then it actually helps you build an abundance mentality.  This goes to work on your subconcious making it think that you have an abundance which in turn can make you more open to receiving money as well.  So then as you earn more, you can tithe more.

 

Tithing does not have to be about money.  There are other ways in which you can give for the good of all.  After all, that is what it is about, helping others.  Here are some examples:

 

  • Give time.  Donate your time and be of service to a worthy cause.

  • Give information.  Write articles or a blog in order to share your knowledge freely with others.

  • Give talents.  Use your skills and help someone who maybe cannot afford to pay for it.

  • Give acknowledgement.  Smile at people, give someone a kind word, or acknowledge someone for a job well done!

  • Give encouragement.  Be supportive of those around you and let them know you care.

  • Give thoughts.  Intend the best for people.  Pray or meditate for others if those practices have meaning for you.

  • Give touch.  Give someone a pat on the back, a hug or a massage.  Give someone a night of wild passion!

It’s all about the intention you put out there when you are giving.  If it makes you feel good and not guilty, then that’s the way to be. 

 

Remember too, do not beat  yourself up about it if it does not sit right with you.  Maybe you can intend an outlet that will make you feel like giving.

 

Yours is Prosperity!

Value adding and Rewards

Friday
Jan 26,2007

A person in any business or job is nothing less than someone who solves problems for people at a profit or for pay.   To get paid more, solve more problems for more people.

 

In doing this, you add value to the people that you are solving problems for, so in turn you will be rewarded.  What is it that you absolutely love to do and you would do even if you were not being paid for it?  Once you know what that is, you are on your way to a prosperous life.

 

Imagine that you could do this many times over.  What I mean is, what if you had more than one client.  What if you were a contractor and worked for many similar companies doing what it is that you love to do?  You would be leveraging your time, therefore, being paid many times over for doing the thing that you love.

 

I’m sure that by now your minds are ticking over and getting creative thinking of what it is that you could do.  How could you offer your services and get paid for doing it? 

 

One way is to offer to work for someone without pay to see how their company works and what you could do in order to improve their sales.  This is how you add the most value.  Work for free!  With the intention of course to let them know why their company could not do without you.  Then you need to use your negotiation skills in order to get what you want.

 

This is something I took on board just recently.  I offered my services to a particular company and told them why they needed me on a more regular basis and so now, negotiations are in progress to come up with the best solution for both of us.

 

By adding value to other peoples lives, you will get what you want.  Give it a go and your journey will be well rewarded.

 

Yours in Prosperity!

Law of Attraction

Tuesday
Jan 23,2007

I know there have been many articles written about this subject and I just wanted to share with you what I have come across over the past 6 months or so.  It is truly amazing once you learn how to use this Universal law the possibilities that open up.

 

I first came across this concept - “The Law of Attraction” - just less than twelve months ago but did not fully understand what it meant.  It takes a lot of faith and changing your old belief systems that you grew up with in order to make it happen.  Here’s what I am talking about…

 

When I first made a list of things that I wanted I included the obvious like a nice car and a bigger house, and a cleaner, and a chef, and the list went on and on.  You get the idea.  Then I was told that I had to be “specific” in asking for what kind of car exactly, and how many rooms does the house have and which suburb is it in… You get the idea.  So I started making “specific” requests and writing things down.  Making specific lists.

 

The next thing to do was to affirm like I already had that thing!!! It all sounded kooky to me.  How can I affirm and be happy that I already have the car of my dreams when I don’t?  It just didn’t make sense until I watched the movie “The Secret”.  Then it all started to make sense.

 

That is the way to do it.  Write it down in specific detail, then be grateful for already having the thing you want and believe that you will receive it.  That’s all there is to it.  It actually is quite easy.  Just have faith.

 

It’s interesting the things that I have written down and have received over the last 6 months.  There are opportunities opening up for me wherever I turn.  Even things that I thought were way beyond me like working at what I love to do and sharing these gems with you.  

 

I look forward to discussing this with you and having you share your thoughts.

 

Yours in Prosperity
