Keep Getting Better
Then somehow, life began.
The first life forms were simple. But they grew.
They learned to interact from their environment. To take raw material and transform it into both energy and themselves.
As they grew and evolved, they started cooperating with each others. Bees and flowers, animals and seeds, plankton and whales.
Then humans showed up. Same story.
Take the very basic raw material from their environment, (lower order wealth) and transform it into more useful things (higher order wealth). Trees into houses. Skins into clothing. Stones into jewelry.
Then humans began interacting with each other. Trading things. Exchanging things. The amount of “stuff” or “higher order wealth” took off.
So much they had to come up with a different way than just trading.
Money was invented.
Then the party really got started!
Societies, buildings, churches, hospitals, theaters, museums, factories, stadiums, burrito machines, etc.
All based on the same process.
Take lower order wealth, transform it into higher order wealth.
And take the created higher order wealth, and exchange it for potential wealth, or money.
Create the wealth that other people want, and trade for the wealth that you want.
But storing up the energy of potential wealth.
Prosperity.
The very process of that began when life was first created is still happening.
Mixing thought, action, and wealth to create more and more wealth.
Are you participating fully?
The truth is that you’ll NEVER fully reach your potential.
Why?
As more and more people participate, there will ALWAYS be more and more stuff created. Which means more opportunities to make more stuff, and get more wealth energy (money).
Which will call for more skills, and more applications of those skills.
You will never reach your potential because what you are capable of can ONLY continue to increase.
How far will you take your skills?
How much will you express your ideas?
How wide will you share your talents?
