The More I Have, The More I Can Help Others

“It’s not right to be rich when others are so poor.”
”It’s not right to be happy when others are so unhappy.”
”It’s not right to be loved when others don’t have love.”

All of these statements are beliefs I see in my work with my clients often. I’ve been aware of thinking some of these thoughts myself before.

Here’s why none of it is true.

Because:
”I can do more to help others when I’m wealthy than when I’m broke.”
”I can be of service to others more easily when I’m not worrying about my own issues.”
”The more love there is in the world, the less suffering there is.”

The first set of beliefs feel rooted in lack and fear, and they evoke guilt.

The second set of beliefs just feels so much better, right? They are empowering. They are inspiring. They make me want to make this world a better place.

Sometimes I feel the need to justify my goal of creating a million-dollar business.

But I know that the more money I make, the more I can help others. The more jobs I can create. The more impact I can make in this world.

I have let go of my guilt for wanting more. Because the more I have – money, love, happiness, the more I can help others.
