Last week, it rained for three straight days and caused some flooding devastation in my neighboring counties.

On Sunday I was sitting in church listening to our priest tell a story about a woman who had 10 minutes to leave her house before she wold be in grave danger from the flooding.

In 10 minutes, she needed to decide what, in her home, she should take with her and what was going to be left. . . for ruin.  It was during these 10 minutes that she realized that the things she obsesses over and worries about day in and day out are not the things that matter. . .

This story is very similar to the death bed analogy.  If you found out you were going to die in the next month- what would you do in your last month and who would you spend time with.  These are the things and people that really matter and your desired experiences should be a part of your personal wealth creation practice.

Before you spend your time and energy working on manifestation, first make sure you really know what your definition is of personal wealth.  Use the death bed analogy and realize that the time you have here on Earth is limited.

When you get very clear about what wealth is to you. . . and what experiences you truly want in life, they can start today.  Do not fall into the trap of thinking you need to sacrifice today for some potential tomorrow.

Define your wealth life and what you want with vivid detail. . . and then start manifesting.
