“Within each of us lies the power of our consent to health and sickness, to riches and poverty, to freedom and to slavery. It is we who control these, and not another”. Richard Bach.

What does it mean to have wealth or be wealthy? Most definitions refer to wealth in terms of economic values, money, shares, stocks, real estate portfolios and personal real estate. Depending on where one lives around the globe the total wealth one has is said to differ.

Robert Kiyosaki author of many books including ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ explains wealth as a measurement of time and refers to the need for people to look closely at the length of time you can live the life you are leading now, without any adjustments, especially when you stop earning an income. This concept of Kiyosaki’s needs to be digested carefully, if you get that knot in the stomach feeling when you realize that you currently live way outside his parameter, if your income stops tomorrow, how long can you survive?

The unequal distribution of wealth worldwide is constantly a subject that is debated by politicians and the general public and in December 2006 results from the most up to date and most comprehensive study performed of personal wealth were released.

Take note, the results show that 1% of the world’s adults owned 40% of the world’s wealth and that the bottom half of the adults in the world only own less than 1% of the world’s wealth.The study also revealed that there are many adults in the high income countries that are incurring high mortgage and personal debt making them amongst the world’s poorest in terms of household or personal wealth. Kiyosaki’s point should be hitting home now.

Everyone on the planet has the ability to have wealth, but not everybody has the power within them to consent to receiving the wealth.

Wealth and abundance are not so much about how much cash you have or how many fancy cars are parked in the garage or how big the house is that you inhabit, however these tangible assets can all be yours if that is what abundance means to you.

In whatever country you live your duty is to abide by the laws that govern that country, whatever religion you follow you relate to the laws of that religion, the same is said regarding the Laws of the Universe.

Universal Laws know no boundaries, they know no limitations.

The only boundaries and the only limitations to discovering the power to start attracting your wealth are found within you.
