Deserve vs. Need

The topic today is about deserve and need. It is crucial to understand this philosophy. It relates to a natural law. Mr. Jim R0hn speaks very clearly about this principle.

Need- you can need to eat, and you can need to make ends meet, but this may not be the reality of what is currently happening. . .

This is maybe a wake up call for those of us that didn't live around the farm, and for those of us who have seen a fairly stable economy in our lives. Quoting someone who is making over 700,000 a year that I was training with last night. Those times are over and this time will go down as our generations worst economical time of our lives. This is not personal economical I am referring to. This is the countries economy as a whole. Basically the recession is not going to blow over.

So it may be time to go back and find out what our parents, parents would teach us. Many people still are looking at the way to help there own economy out wrong. They say, because I have a need I will be provided a way to fill that need and move on.

An analogy of how silly this thinking is. This is like going to a fireplace and saying give me heat and I will give you wood. We would laugh at this wouldn't we. How about in terms of the Law of the Harvest. Can you imagine the orchard of a farmer who plants an apple seed and is frustrated a day, a week, a month later there is no harvest, no apples. Again we would all laugh.

The fact is that we approach business, relationships, and life in general in such away. If you have a strong enough need you will get everything you need is false, a lie, and is backwards thinking. If you have put in the work and deserve the harvest your needs will be taken care of.

Bottom line, don't be alarmed about the economy, times may be tough for your own personal economy. There are individuals who amass greater wealth during a recession in many industries then during a booming economy. I try everyday to live by the principle recently spoken to by a good friend quoting Thomas S. Monson:

"Pray like it all depends on him. Work like it all depends on you." Thanks for that Matt Riley.
