will lead you down the wrong path.

From my own experience I have made many quick decisions and have lost thousands of dollars. The only reason was that I hastily moved into action and without complete review. I only found that in order to get to the goal one has to spend even more money, time, effort and energy. Most of the time, if I just looked into the bible I would have found what I was looking for, that is simply the truth.

This is not to say that what you are being told is invalid or of no value. It can have tremendous value, what happens is that you are left without resource to make it happen. You can have a billion dollar plan but then no funds or resources to support it.

It is always the question of your own intent. Are your intentions honorable? Are you seeking wealth beyond all else? What is it that you are trying to fix or create in your life? You must examine your intentions. Is it heartfelt, will it benefit your family without violating values and integrity?

Purity of thought, the want to provide and do better for your family and friends is a noble cause. The question is can you right from where you are now, start on that path? If you can not bloom from where you are, then the issues that you need to address is right there. You don't have to go on any long term venture. You need first to place the right foundation, right from where you live. That is the place from where you start. Study and application will get you on the right path. Jumping into many ventures or ideas will leave you confused, undisciplined and lost.

The reason I am saying this is because in the personnel development arena that are many trains of thought. There are different approaches, but you must find the one that directly addresses your needs, wants and desires. You must do your due diligence, by actively researching the credibility and the accessibility of the discipline.

I have yet to find anything in self development or self image theory and applications that have not been found in the bible. What I have found in simple restatements of what already exist. Not that these restatements are faulty but they lack the reference or origin. Most statements are that these are laws of the universe. This is true, but these laws were established by God and can be found in His work.

The source for all these self image and personal development issues can be found in the bible and that source has been in existence for thousands of years. Even though we have progress in our technology the fundamentals never change they remain as they were.
