When You Are Ready for Your True Wealth

by Joyce Shafer

When you're ready, you learn of your True inheritance (your true wealth) and use it with wisdom, humility, and generosity. And that's when life really gets interesting.

You may have moved through your life thinking you knew exactly who you were based on your points of origin: geographic location, economic status of your family or guardians, cultural and/or religious beliefs, and so on. You may have believed you knew how the real world works based on what you were told by everyone who had any influence in your life.

And, you may have believed them and acted in ways to prove them right.

But if you were ready for your inheritance, something inside you kept nagging, kept asking, "Is this all there is?" . . . because you felt at your core there was more.

The film The Secret arrived on the scene preceded and followed by numerous writings, films, and teaching programs based on Universal Laws. After all the excitement that lasted a while, came the headlines proclaiming the flaws in The Secret and the hidden Laws; and you were, and are, spoiled with opportunities to discover the missing bits, keys, or pieces that can help you.
If you were new to this information (and even not so new), you may have quickly felt frustrated because you believed if you did this and that, everything would change. Let's be clear: you believed your external life would change, and you wanted it to so you could feel the way you want to feel.

What happens in your external life is not your true inheritance or wealth. Who you truly are as a creative power is.

The biggest reason anyone bumps into frustration and challenges with this information is because to really get it and get it going, they are required to recognize the truth, which means most, if not all, of what they believe about reality has to be recognized for what it is. The truth of their involvement has to be accepted and managed with conscious awareness.

There is a learning curve involved, to gain wisdom. This wisdom leads to humility (and true joy) when you understand the bigger picture, the role you and others play in helping you create experiences, and the overall effect of positive and negative judgment on experiences. You learn to be generous at allowing others to discover their True Wealth in their own time and ways. You learn to be gentle with yourself and others. You learn how you play and how to play.

To fully inherit your true wealth, you have to stop believing in the illusion; you have to develop your personalized techniques to step-by-step train yourself to manage your powerful creative energy; and you have to completely own your creative power.

True wealth comes with the responsibility of self-management, understanding how things work so you expand and enhance rather than stagnate or decline. You have to pay attention to energy and dynamics. You have to act with deliberation and deliberately. You have to appreciate this gift, this Truth, from a new level of awareness.

Any shifts in your external experiences must start in your inner experience by facing the truth and all its implications: "There is no spoon."

Are you ready for that?
