I finally reached this decision when I was forty-two years of age. I decided this business was no longer for me. My dad never really understood why I wanted to give it up even though I tried to explain why. I wasn't happy about hours, compensation, stress and a host of other things usually demanded of a retail business.

The dream I had for becoming a commissioned sales representative kept popping up in my head over years. I finally decided I was going to be "driver" and no longer a "passenger" on my road through life. So it wasn't long before I got my first job as a sales rep. However it only lasted about eighteen months. I became dissatisfied with not only company but sales manager as well. I had already lined up a position with another company so I wasn't without a job for very long. I spent next twenty years with them until my retirement.

During those years in sales I was happiest I had ever been in my life. I earned more income during that time and was able to provide more things for my family too. Even though I traveled out of town every other week for about six years as a sales supervisor my wife was satisfied with that arrangement and so was I. I've come to conclusion that no matter what age you are make sure that you always decide what kind of life is right for you. In last six years my wife and I have spent half year in Florida and other half in our primary home in Indiana. It was a big decision. During those times we are away from our children and grandchildren but we made that choice because we were tired of winters in Indiana. Once again we became "drivers" instead of "passengers" and made a choice of type of life we wanted to lead. Only you should decide which kind of journey you will be taking through life and how you will arrive there. Take charge. Remember it's "Your Life." Enjoy it to fullest.

There is yet another group of people who fear abundance. Some individuals fear abundance because they believe that abundance will require hours and hours of hard work. The principle of Economy of Force or Principle of Least Resistance contends that this is just not true.

To many of us are spending 16 hour days at working hoping and praying that soon all our "money" troubles will be over and we can retire in Bahamas when we are 60 years old. Hah! Don't mean to burst anyone's bubble but it just ain't so.

We are not suppose to work hard. What? That's right. We are suppose to work creatively. That's what human Spirit desires. During times of stillness and quiet, Universe whispers plans, inventions, and ideas. These witty plans, inventions, and ideas are a part of creative energies of Universe waiting for our higher consciousness to receive it.

By stilling mind in meditation, we discover this knowledge and wisdom. When we act on it. We create wealth. We create freedom. For each of these plans, inventions, ideas are serve a purpose and that purpose in to help humanity in some form. Therefore, it is already a demand for it. There are millions of people wanting it. All you need is faith and courage to execute.

Your execution will seem effortless when you take time to meditate and determine how each step should be carried out. Before long, you have tapped into field of infinite possibilities where anything that is possible is possible. You have opened flood gates to wealth and success and you are living abundant life.

Now what is so fearful about that?

While this group would be classified as a fear of success, there are those who have a fear of abundance because they just know they will fail. Again, Principle of Expectations contends that energy follows thoughts. Therefore, keep thinking it and it will happen. Here's a novel thought. Practice Law of Detachment. In this law, you go through process doing all you can while Universe handle details.

All you do is what you know how to do. You stay in meditation. Asking Universe to show you what you should do next. After you have done it. You step back and let Universe handle rest. If Universe says write a book. Learn what you need to learn to write it. Then, write it. You don't worry about "how many copies will I sell or if audience will like it or maybe it won't sell and I'll have to file bankruptcy."

Simply do what you know how to do. Meditate. Remain detached. Expect best. Gain wisdom in what you are doing. Take each step expecting best and best will come. That's abundance in action.
