Love and Prosperity 
Part II

by Andrei Yashurin

How can divine love help us in achieving greater prosperity 
for ourselves and our loved ones? There are several valuable 
ideas which are worthy to be remembered and applied.

First, settle it in your mind that you are worthy to be blessed 
with abundance.

Some people may have a sense of guilt and shame when they 
are prosperous, and others are not. "How can I have more 
than so-and-so, - they emphatically ask, - if that person is 
more talented or morally better than me?" It could be a long 
discussion why some of so-called "good" people are not 
successful. But there are no reasons why someone's misery 
should stop us from looking for personal happiness. If we will 
continue to exist at the low level, how can we help others 
and inspire others to reach higher? If we don't allow God 
to prosper us, what right do we have to tell others that God 
will help them in their sufferings?

Second, radiate love that you might attract love. 

Business world operates according to laws of exchange. We buy 
and sell, exchanging money for products and services. But in 
all of our business transactions, there is one immensely 
valuable ingredient which should be added, no matter we buy 
or sell. That is love.

Love costs nothing, but ultimately it makes all the 
difference.       

Love products or services that you offer at the market. 
If you sincerely love what you sell, you will have greater 
chances to be a successful salesperson, because people you 
deal with will become aware of your attitude, whether consciously 
or unconsciously. They will be affected by invisible aura 
of your thoughts and feelings. "For there is nothing hidden 
that shall not be revealed", says the Bible.

Love and enthusiasm are contagious. If you love your products 
and services, others will like them, too. They will believe 
in them, together with you. But on the other hand, if you 
are not enthusiastic about things you're giving to the world, 
how can you expect others to be enthusiastic about them, and 
to pay for them good price? This is illogical. 

If you love your products or services, you will constantly 
work on improving their quality, so that you could appreciate 
them more - and to be proud of them. Your motivation will be 
to give the best, and you will attract the best from others. 
Thoughts about getting unfair advantage won't even cross your mind. 

Love products or services that you buy, whether for your 
business or for personal use. If you do not love them, chances 
are, they will not serve you well. Many people are saving cents, 
but loosing dollars by getting things they don't like, but 
"need". Don't be among them.

Love your work. I know no other person who described connection 
between love and work better than Kahlil Gibran:

"Work is empty save when there is love;
And when you work with love, you bind yourself to yourself, 
and to one another, and to God.
 ...
Work is love made visible.
And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it 
is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate 
of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy".

Love all people you work with - your employers, your employees, 
your co-workers, your customers - all who come close to you 
in any way. In your mind, bless them with a thought: "This 
person is brought to me by God, for a very special purpose. 
I am a channel of divine good for him/her, and he/she is 
a channel of divine good for me. I will stay attuned to God's 
guidance, so that this blessing could be manifested".

Love even your competitors! No matter what is their attitude 
toward you, they should be among your best friends. In truth, 
they help you to work smarter and to become better in your work. 
Where there is no competition, mediocrity reigns, and there 
is no place for excellence.
