There are a million ways to make a million dollars. You can take any activity, and someone has made a million doing it. Even to professional vacationers that send in reports to travel agencies, you can make money doing anything! What I hope to share with you in this article is not so much what to do in order to make money and increase your prosperity, but rather how to think about what you like to do and see money-making possibilities within it!

We are never so limited as our imaginations make us. One of most important topics we work with in Keys To Power - Step by Step course is topic of underlying assumptions. And here is why. If you assume that only way to make money is to work for someone else, then you will never consider idea of running your own business. And if you assume that there is no way to make money doing what you love to do, then you will lose out because of that assumption.

Underlying assumptions go a lot further in their effects on our lives than with our prosperity, since everything we think we know about world is in one way or another a false assumption. For centuries, humanity assumed that world was flat, or was center of our solar system and universe. We assumed that speeds over 30 miles an hour would kill us, or that no-one could possibly run a mile in under 4 minutes. All of these assumptions have been proven false, and many more will be proven false once we start to test their true validity.

But back to topic of prosperity. Right now, there are many different ways you can make money that you are not even aware of. You have valuable skills, talents, knowledge, or aptitudes that you can use to trade for things you want in life. You've no doubt heard suggestion that you should follow your passion when deciding on a career. And reasoning for this is that if you are passionate about task that you are working on, you will do job better than someone who isn't passionate about it.

While you and I may not be passionate about plumbing, and would not be very good at it because of it, there are many people who find subject absolutely engaging, and do a wonderful job accordingly. Although I'm passionate about photography, and do a very good job at it because of my passion, there are many people who try to make money as a photographer, but cannot make a living at it because they are not passionate about it, and quality of their work shows it.

Most of us have many passions. We are not limited to only one interest in our lives. What then, should we focus on in order to make money. Here is where I had greatest difficulty. There was one question that I stumbled upon that really solved problem, however, and that question is: "How can make biggest contribution to world?" Another way of phrasing that is "What will you do to leave your mark on world?" or "How will you make world a better place?"

Once I spent some time thinking about that question, I realized that my photography, as profitable as it was, was not going to be greatest contribution I could make to world. The information I had gathered over years in my (very passionate) study of human mind, spirituality, and system that has become Keys To Power, would be greatest contribution to world that I could make. And now that I've been working on this project for about 7 months, it is already proving to be more profitable than my photography was! Such is Power of making a genuine contribution to world!

Now, lets bring out a very important point here that may get missed otherwise. One of reasons that making a contribution to world brings greater prosperity is that contributions are valuable. Value produced equals prosperity received. If you remember this one line, you will always know exactly how to make money.

Many of people that I usually talk to are a little unsure on exactly what constitutes value, or at least type of value that can be exchanged for money. Here are some ideas that will increase value of any service or product in eyes of average consumer.

A pleasant, helpful attitude. "What can I do for you?" "I'd love to do that for you." People have too much to do already.

Smiles and other expressions of joy and happiness. People like to be around happy people.

Behavior that matches that of your customer. People like to be around people like themselves. In this regard, speak just as softly, loudly, fast, or slow as person you're talking to. Sit if they are sitting, and stand if they are standing. Just don't be obvious about this or it will backfire on you.

Attention to details. This is one of basic definitions of quality. All of details of your service or product are best they can be. This takes time to master, so it is one way to identify a professional as opposed to an amateur.
