Everything is an investment!
Money is, unarguably, one of the three basic components of any human’s life. You need money for food, clothing, and shelter, the first, and the fundamental of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Yet many struggle to experience an easy inflow of money. I am not saying that you need a 6-digit monthly financial inflow to experience prosperity. Prosperity is a feeling – an experience where you are in the space of absolute pure happiness and fulfillment and contentment, which, in turn paves way for you to attract more prosperity. And, this is different for different people.
Let us say there are two people – X and Y.
X has a 4-digit monthly money inflow and Y has a 6-digit monthly money inflow. But X seems to be happier than Y. How is that possible?
It so happens because X is in full alignment – body, mind, and soul are in complete harmony. X will have his/her desires, but he/she will manifest his/her desire with utmost ease and grace. How? By being grateful for every small joy he/she has.
And, how can you be more and more grateful? One of the ways you can enhance your sense of gratitude is by looking at every penny you spend as an investment. Be it a fruit you buy, or a new lipstick, a deck of Oracle cards or a healing session – each one is an investment.

Wondering how?
Just think that you bought a fruit with the intent to keep yourself energetic. Doesn’t the fruit satiate your hunger? When your hunger disappears, don’t you feel more alive? When you feel more alive, don’t you feel that you have the energy to complete the work? And, when you complete on time, you, of course, receive a reward [not necessarily monetary, but in some form]. Now, is that not an investment?
Let us talk about an energy healing session. You worked with a practitioner when you were not well. Maybe the issue you worked on did not get resolved immediately, but there were a lot of so-called blocks that got cleared. This will improve your emotional health. And, when you are in a better emotional space, won’t you be able to think clearer? Clear thinking, in turn, will empower you to make better decisions. And, this, on the other hand, will help you with better performance and better quality of life. Now, is that not an investment again?
There is always an opportunity to find a positive energy in every moment of your life. There might have been a few or loads of unpleasant, painful experiences in the past. You might not have had a happy childhood; you might have experienced multiple physical issues; or you might not have had loving relationships. Irrespective of all these, every single moment would have brought a tiny joy with it. Be it the warm aroma of food or the much-wanted sleep when you were not keeping well or the small gifts in a relationship, you would have smiled. And, these are the investments I am talking about.
I am not talking about overlooking anything or ignoring anything. I am also not talking about bypassing anything. However, if you can find a light in a seemingly endless tunnel, it could give you a breakthrough.
To perceive something as an investment, what is required is the initial acceptance of the entire scenario – along with how and what you feel and think. It is okay to get angry or be sad or feel hurt when things do not go as planned. Once you realize it, you now have the opportunity to make a choice regarding how you wish to move forward – whether to hold onto the painful experience and its memories, or find the “investment” in it, and move forward. As I always say, everything is a choice. And, every moment gives you a brand-new opportunity to choose.
The next time you are spending money or energy, just ponder over these words for a minute, and then, decide. And, observe if it makes a difference.
