Making money is spiritual

In today’s world, one of the worst things you can do is get trapped in the mind of the “noble brokie.”

Many intelligent people I know hate online business, marketing, and sales because they think it is “below” them.

They get locked into what they think is a “higher” perspective that demonizes the sleazy salesman. In reality, this is an illusion. This “higher” perspective is filled with misunderstanding, a lack of empathy, and hate.

It is on par with if not a lower level of consciousness than the “sleazy salesman” himself.

This is similar to how the left and right argue to defend the ideology they identify with. Similar to atheists and theists. When they engage in these narrow-minded arguments, there is no chance of discovering the holistic truth of the situation.

Let’s start to deconstruct what this holistic truth is:

If you don’t start a business to provide information, education, and goods that make a better humanity – then unethical businesses rise to the top without competition making a worse humanity.

The reason that unethical businesses flood the marketplace is that you aren’t as conscious or intelligent as you think.

You are directly contributing to evil by not starting a business to raise the collective consciousness.

By doing nothing but demonizing money and businesses that are the lifeblood of society, you are assigned a job where the employer is more than likely unethical by your standards.

You won’t start a business because of your delusional assumptions and conditioning that it is unethical to make money – but you are working for a business that makes the population sick, contributes to bombing people across the world, and locks employees into robotic routines so they wouldn’t dare achieve their potential.

People criticize new creator education businesses as “grifts” and “scams” for solving the only true problems that will raise the baseline consciousness of humanity.

People who sell education, courses, and coaching in the health, wealth, relationships, and happiness domains of life are attacking the root of positive behaviour change.

If humanity is only as strong as its weakest link, and 99% of people suffer from the same survival problems, and education is what allows the individual to solve their own problems (rather than prescribing temporary relief), and problems are what prevent personal to collective evolution, and if the education system is focused on training people into jobs for its own benefit, then the new digital society of value creators is one realistic path out of this mess.

Back to the main argument…

By doing nothing, you allow people less conscious and intelligent than you to have more attention, impact, and money than you.

Money creates a ripple effect and allows them to spread their message further, hire employees (that contribute to said unethical practices), and compound the attention they hold in society.

The only way you can stop people from paying attention to one thing is to give them something more persuasive to pay attention to.

This issue is not as simple as “just starting a business to make money.”

Everything is connected and you are unconsciously allowing the entire Universe to tilt in the hands of evil by not becoming a conscious business owner that impacts its customers, employees, readers, economy, and the rest to infinity.

Spirituality is understanding your part in the whole of the Universe.

Spirituality is not disconnecting from that whole to live in the woods and letting the Universe decline into chaos.

Spirituality then can be considered, and felt, when you attempt to reverse entropy by putting effort and energy into the progress and evolution of humanity.

Happiness is the feeling that power increases — that resistance is being overcome. — Nietzsche

If you hate money, do you not hate your life?

Everything around you right now from the phone in your hands to the roads you drive on to the desk you sit at to the food that keeps you alive are all products from a business that makes money for their contribution to the advancement of civilization.

You are drowning in a world that was built by the drive of money stemming from survival.

The Importance And Unignorability Of Money

The best way to make money is teaching others how to make money

I see people say this quite often.

Some people say it as wisdom.

Others act like it is a sentence that dismantles any business advice so they don’t have to face reality.

Some people see this saying as a bad thing when money rules people’s lives. It is the one thing holding them back from reaching the next level of their personal development. It dictates almost every single action a person takes, even the most “spiritual” people, because money is deeply intertwined with modern survival.

Why do you work 8 hours a day for 45 years? Because you need to pay the bills and support your family.

Why do you go off and live in the woods like a monk? Because you want to eliminate the need for money to pursue personal development. (To think this is what everyone should do is more foolish than leaving society to rot. “All is one” until you actually have to take responsibility for the health of the world, so you choose to check out instead).

Why do you go to the gym and eat healthy foods? To be healthy, yes, but there’s more. You want to increase your perceived status so you can attract better opportunities, advance your career, and make more money.

Why am I typing on my keyboard right now? To help you out, yes, but there is not only one reason behind anyone’s actions. Writing is my business. I write often because I get paid to do so, among a plethora of other benefits it brings to my life.

Why are you reading this? To get a new perspective, yes, but it will open your mind to reduce the limiting beliefs around making money.

Almost every action you take has money as an attached reason.

Money is deeply rooted in modern survival.

If you look at Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, each stage requires money in the modern world.

The financial domain of your life is just like any other domain.

Like a skill tree in a video game.

All domains of your life require seeds to be planted over time for a garden to flourish.

To achieve health, you need money.

To achieve fulfilling relationships, you need to solve the problem that destroys 99% of them… money.

To be happy (more so to enjoy life since happiness is a fickle metric) you need to make progress toward a meaningful goal. You need to build. Building requires resources. Resources require money.

When you ignore the need for money, you limit how far you can go in your mental, physical, and even spiritual practices.

Spiritual practices? Yes. If you have a poor relationship with the lifeblood of the material world then your spirituality is stunted. You can’t acquire the resource that allows you to contribute to the spiritual evolution of humanity.

Everything is “teaching people how to make money” and advance their career no matter if its advice positioned from the perspective of relationships, health and fitness, or learning a new skill like digital art.

Hell, why do you go to school for 12 to 24 years of your life? To increase your earning capacity of course. Yes, you learn how to operate within society, but what is the lifeblood of society?

What do they teach in school? Is it only “how to make money?” Or is it an interest you can adopt to eventually help you make money?

Back on the topic of the creator economy…

Do you not see that the only way to make money in the new economy is from people who created the jobs and opportunities to make money in that economy?

Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean it isn’t useful.

Do you not see that the only way to make money in the old economy is from the institutions and constructs that created those jobs?

Everything evolves. Let go of what you thought worked 10 years ago.

Schools teach outdated and less profitable ways to make money, because more profitable ones emerged with the creation of the internet. Just like how more profitable jobs emerged after the creation of the tractor and everything else.

By viewing everything as a scam you are delaying your development by years if not your entire life.

This is the phase of evolution we are in and you are missing out on what will be the new normal.
