Marriage Is An Act Of Faith And Not Money

You Said That Marriage Is An Act Of Faith And
Not Money: How Can You Marry Without
Money?
We have had princes and princesses and sons and
daughters of the wealthy who could not marry. We
have had people of wealth and means who could not
even chat a woman up or have a man pay attention
to them. We have had many of these people with a
lot of money who lived and died single. We have
many of such who could not make successful
marriages. We have many high and mighty, wealthy
and educated that could not raise a family or
posterity they could be proud of on earth and, of
course, in the presence of God. For these, money
never was their problem because they had money in
abundance.
In the same vein, we have had many people without
money or who are poor who could not marry or are
also unable to chat a woman up or be desired by any
man. There are several poor people who could not
raise a proper family they could be proud of just as
there has been the rich and wealthy who could not
also do the same.
What all these point to is that, logically speaking,
money is not a catcher for marriage. What I have
learned from my own experience is that the decision
to get married is not an issue of the availability of
money but that of desire. Desire is the first principle
of successful living and wealth creation. It is desire
that pushes for the achievement of anything in life. If
you want something so badly, then you always
ultimately get it. But if you do not want something,
even if it is dropped at your feet, you have no
motivation to do anything about it.
Think about it this way. The first time you did
something important for your welfare and
development, did you do it because you had money or
did you do it because it is what you wanted? Every
time I have done this test with people, it is always
that they obtained something because it is what they
wanted rather than what money they have leading
them to go for what they got.
I know people who are married whose monthly
income is less than half of many who would not
marry because they did not have enough money to
feed themselves not to talk of adding another mouth
in the place of a wife and possibly children.
Even with all the money in the world, there is no
guarantee that your marriage would be happy. The
things that guarantee peace and happiness in
marriage are ninety per cent attitude, nine and half
per cent decision. Other variables share the remaining
half per cent with money in contributing to peace and
happiness in marriage.
In the foundation for joyful relationships, friendship,
mutual respect and faith in God are tops to what
people should learn and acquire during dating and
courtship if they want to be happy in their marriage.
If you need help with your dating and marriage
relationship.

Thought And Purpose

          Until thought is linked with purpose there is no intelligent accomplishment. With the majority the bark of thought is allowed to "drift" upon the ocean of life. Aimlessness is a vice, and such drifting must not continue for him who would steer clear of catastrophe and destruction.         They who have no central purpose in their life fall an easy prey to petty worries, fears, troubles, and self-pityings, all of which are indications of weakness, which lead, just as surely as deliberately planned sins (though by a diff route), to failure, unhappyness, and loss, for weakness cannot persist in a power-evolving universe.         A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and set out to accomplish it. He should make this purpose the centralizing point of his thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be a worldly object, ...

It was my EYEs

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see the world, I will marry you.' One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend. He asked her,’ Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him. Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.' This is how the human brain often works when our status changes. Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by their side in the most painful situat...

The 50 New Rules of Work

The 50 New Rules of Work You are not just paid to work. You are paid to be uncomfortable – and to pursue projects that scare you. Take care of your relationships and the money will take care of itself. Lead you first. You can’t help others reach for their highest potential until you’re in the process of reaching for yours. To double your income, triple your rate of learning. While victims condemn change, leaders grow inspired by change. Small daily improvements over time create stunning results. Surround yourself with people courageous enough to speak truthfully about what’s best for your organization and the customers you serve. Don’t fall in love with your press releases. Every moment in front of a customer is a moment of truth (to either show you live by the values you profess – or you don’t). Copying what your competition is doing just leads to being second best. Become obsessed with the user experience such that every touchpoint ...
