Your Wealth

What does wealth mean to you? For some women, it means living in the lap of luxury. For others, it means having enough to live comfortable without being extravagant. Of course, the meaning of luxury and extravagance are completely subjective. For some women, it isn't about things at all, it's about relationships. For others, it's about being of service.

The important thing is for you to define what you want in your life. When you have that, you are wealthy.

What do you value most in life? Here are some suggestions to help you discover your values:

  • Family
  • Friends
  • Home
  • Knowledge
  • Education
  • Financial Security
  • Work you love
  • Activities you love

Try this little exercise to determine what means wealth to you.

  1. Make a list of your personal Ten Most Valuable. It might include some or all of the list above as well as some of your own valuables.
     
  2. Prioritize the list.
    Start with the first item and compare it with the second.
    If you can only have one, which would you choose?
     
  3. Compare the winning choice with the next item.
     
  4. Continue the comparisons with every item on your list suntil you have the number one item on your list.
     
  5. Go through the process again with the remaining items until your whole list is prioritized.

Now, consider each item on your list separately and ask yourself what one thing could you have in that area that would make you feel as wealthy as possible.
