What is #WEALTH, and how can you acquire it? Lakshmi presents us with four main directions, aims, or goals. Understand and follow these, and you will prosper.

The first direction or aim in life is the accumulation of wealth. Don’t confuse wealth for money. Money in and of itself is valueless. Only what we can purchase in exchange for money gives it value. Wealth is abundant potential energy. Wealth is not just about the accumulation of money or material goods, although both have the power to make the world a better place. Wealth comes in many forms, such as good health, love, happiness, and rewarding work. Many people get lost in the illusion of material wealth and confuse the earthly symbols of wealth for success. Success is measured by the degree of your happiness and not the size of your bank account. In this world, no one would argue that it is better to be rich than poor. Wealthy people have greater access to the necessities and the luxuries of life. Wealth affords more options and choices. But just remember this - it is not wealth that destroys. It is greed. Problems arise when wealth is used to control others and abuse society. In a world such as ours, with so much wealth, no person should ever go without or be abused. So, if you want to prosper, find a way to make the world a better place, and you will become a wealthy person. END: Remember the difference between wealth and material possessions. Wealth can mean having beauty, love, and good health, and these can never be replaced with gold, money, or other material possessions. Your true wealth comes from within. It is the source of your abundant energy, and this energy has the power to create. Draw from it, create, and you will prosper. Once found, this cosmic energy can never be depleted. Just remember that energy is never lost it simply changes form. As long as the universe exists, there will be infinite opportunities to tap into this abundant energy and, with it, create wealth. Money may come and go or slip past your outstretched hand, but if you use your abundant energy wisely, you will always create wealth, and with this, you prosper. EGO: flip your palm up and extend out the index finger – the symbol of the ego. The ego often associates success with the accumulation of material things. But the ego's real task is to balance our uncontrollable desires and what is socially and technically acceptable. That’s where the soul comes into play. Pull your finger in and place your thumb on top – the symbol of the soul. Take a breath and surrender to the soul. The soul is our consciousness. It is our ability to see the world for what it is – ever-changing. Material wealth comes and goes, but when we truly understand the meaning of a wealthy life, we prosper.
