How to Use Inner Guidance To Earn Money Wisely
Introduction
Inner guidance is motivated by love. When we listen to our calling
to earn money in ways that expresses our love and concern without
doing harm, using our gifts and skills, we find fulfilment and job
satisfaction through our work. By aligning our working life with
our inner guidance we can make giant strides in unfolding our wings.
We find the discipline in our life changing from being harsh and
severe to gentle and relaxed. We find peace by engaging in the work
we are being called to take up. Not listening to our calling to
change our working life can lead to difficulties.
For Example
Jim was a senior executive in his 40's with a computer company.
As he grew older he began to yearn to work with young adults with
learning difficulties. He dreamed about helping young men and women
feel empowered through sport. Each morning he found it increasingly
difficult to motivate himself to wake up and drive to work on time.
He felt that he really had to push himself to do his job. Whenever
Jim had feelings of changing his career, he dismissed them as idle
fantasies. He was afraid that if he explored these feelings he might
end up in a job that paid considerably less than his current occupation.
Then one day, while taking the elevator up to his office, he felt
a crushing pain in his chest. When he went to the doctor he was
told he had experienced a mild heart attack.
An Exercise in Using Inner Guidance to Earn Money
Have coloured pens or pencils and paper handy. Sit silently for
10 minutes. Ask yourself inwardly what work you would really like
to do. Allow words and images to form in your mind in response to
this question. Do not seek to control these words and images, simply
observe them flowing through your mind's eye. Pick up your paper.
Sketch and write some of the images that came to you while sitting
silently using the coloured pencils to embellish them. Create a
single sheet of paper that summarises your dream career. Hang this
sheet of paper in your study or bedroom. If after a few weeks you
still feel drawn to this image take a few follow-up actions this
will help you explore moving your career in this direction.
