More quotes from reading.... Adapted from Suze Orman's book, Women & Money: Owning the Power to Control Your Destiny.
"Besides money, a wealthy woman has some qualities that serve as guideposts to make sure she's always walking toward wealth rather than away from it.
Harmony and Balance: Harmony is the agreement between what you think, say, and do. Balance is the state of stability in which you're able to make sound judgments that will enhance your financial security. Aligning you thoughts, words, and actions will put you on a path to balance - and emotional and financial well-being.
Wisdom and Courage: The ability to make (not just think about) sensible decisions that respect your needs takes wisdom, the voice of experience that's inside each woman. Courage, the catalyst that creates harmony by uniting our thoughts with our actions, is what lets us assert our opinions confidently.
Generosity and Happiness: True generosity must benefit both parties. No woman can control her destiny if she doesn't give to herself as much as she gives of herself. Happiness manifests itself through generosity.
Cleanliness and Beauty: Removing clutter and chaos from our lives brings clarity, which makes it easier to achieve what we want. From emptying closets of unused stuff to streamlining your wallet, cleanliness is a sign that you're in control. And by bringing the first seven qualities into your life, you feel beautiful.
When you commit to finding harmony and balance, you have the courage to make decisions that are as generous to you as they are to others. This leads to deep, unwavering happiness and brings beauty into your life."
Good principles to live by and live for! I think of harmony and balance when I think of this peace project, balancing the physical, emotional and spiritual so that one or another is not less than the other. If I were to put each of these into a box and then put them on a teeter-totter, I may find that the Emotional box is very heavy and makes my teeter-totter out of balance. My thoughts are that when the three are quite equal, my teeter-totter will balance and I will feel harmony in my life. It's quite a goal.
