You started this thread to encourage people to have the courage to focus on their power to choose to be rich and therefore be empowered by what you write. I'm sure you have much knowlegde on the subject, but this thread also includes conversation about what courage is, my opinion is directed at that.
I say again........courage like most human based responses is fear based, while that is a good thing as a reaction, it's hardly a way to be empowered. Courage is a label to envoke a human repsonse to accept that everything is of self creation, while all the time denying it is, therefore the fight/flight response.
Someone chooses not to be rich, it's not about courage, that is a label to mask denial. Courage implies resistance, you need courage to overcome something outside of youself, what's outisde of you??...........nothing.
All the battles are within........courage is a weapon to fight a non existant enemy.
The courage to be rich is like saying you need something to respond and possibly fight something that only exists when you choose it to be. It would be more appropriate to say "Screw it, I'm god and I will do whatever I want, including being rich"

EDIT: Paul what is you USP?? What makes your blog unique?? 70 million blogs and your's in special because????????...........Make money doing what you love is not unique.........I'm not being critical, I want to help...........maybe God should be your target market. |
For me - ostensibly one of Pauls target audience - Pauls usage of the word courage, in terms of its conventional meaning, clearly conveys an essential component of what is required to achieve success, that is, to overcome fears that have been holding one back. This feels intuitively correct, is easily understandable and is useful in practical terms.
Your post is a rebuttal of his usage of the word courage because, if I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying that courage is actually disempowering because its a fear-based response. Whether that is true or not, I am more than a little skeptical at what you are suggesting in its place.
What do you mean by the "Screw it, I'm God..." philosophy? To me it seems like you're proposing self-delusion as the proper approach. Could you clarify?
