The average person finds it difficult to attract money into his or her life. I've struggled with the concept myself. It's only been recently, over the past few years, that I finally began to understand the flow of money.
If you want to increase the flow of money into your life, memorize this sentence: Money flows through service to others. As long as you remember that one sentence, you should do well in your career. If you feel you want to make more money but feel limited with your career choice, then you should look into careers that provide more service to people on a larger scale.
It all boils down to emotional influence. The more you can make people feel something on an emotional level, the more material affluence you will acquire. It doesn't require a high IQ either - just think of all the reality TV shows. Some of the people who host those shows are absolute morons but they make a boat load of cash by entertaining people on a mass scale through the television medium.
Outside of entertainment as a form of service, there is service that requires highly specialized knowledge, such as an attorney or a doctor. Both trades require extensive training and education. The level at which these trades influence individuals is on a much larger scale than the mass emotional influence an entertainer affects a single person. Basically, a well known entertainer can slightly influence millions of people through television while a doctor can dramatically influence one person by saving his or her life.
Now that you have a grasp of the concept, ask yourself this question: how many people do I influence on a daily basis? The answer to that question corresponds directly with the amount of money you earn.
So how do you affect more people? You don't need to be an entertainer. You don't need your own television show or 15 years of education. Start on a small scale - help someone in your household. How about helping your neighbor? Your friend? A family member? A co worker?
Service to others can be performed in any capacity. As long as you are helping other people on a daily basis, the flow of money into your life is inevitable. You can't stop it.
The mistake most people make when money gets tight is they start thinking, "how can I make more money?" when in reality they should be asking themselves, "how can I help more people?"
If you're short on cash. the solution is simple: help other people get what they want! Don't make excuses either - start today. Start right now. If you're unemployed, you have a TON of opportunity to help people on a daily basis. You are free to offer your services to others. You can help people you know or you could donate your time at a local mission or homeless shelter. Those services are typically operated by volunteers.
You're probably going to think I'm nuts for saying this next part, but here it is: help someone today even if it means you aren't getting paid for it directly from that person. Again, let me repeat: focus on helping people, not on the money. Focusing on the money will guarantee your failure while focusing on helping someone will guarantee your success. When the money comes, it will arrive easily and effortlessly, so don't reject it when someone offers it to you. Take it. By helping other people, you're guaranteed to increase the flow of cash into your life. It's as simple as that.
I've written a more detailed essay on the subject. It's in Word format, and you can download a copy of it from my website: the flow of money.

You Deserve A Great Smile
A beautiful smile can make a dramatic difference in a person's level of life enjoyment. Whether or not you realize it, people subconsciously and consciously react to your smile.
A genuine smile conveys warmth and friendliness. When you meet people in any manner, you should openly smile because it will create a friendly, welcome atmosphere. Not only that, but smiling is contagious - if you smile at somebody, they will typically respond with a smile right back at you.
While it would be great if everyone felt comfortable to smile whenever they interact with another person, not everyone feels that way. A lot of people are self conscious of their teeth and are reluctant to smile. Whether you have missing teeth, stained teeth, chipped or broken teeth, or if they're crooked, a dentist can help you improve your smile. Most dentists will provide a free, initial consultation for new clients. If you've ever considered improving your smile, put together a short list of local dentists and give them a call. Chances are great you'll find one that offers a free initial consultation, or at the very least you can find one that offers a highly discounted initial visit + xrays for new patients.
You shouldn't be reluctant to get your teeth looked at by a dentist. An aesthetically enhanced smile can have a dramatic impact on a person's smile, especially if the person's smile was somehow flawed prior. Even if you don't have insurance, you can still get work done. While it may take awhile to find a dentist that is open to it, there are dentists out there who offer payment plans for those who need it. Remember, dentists are doctors, and doctors became doctors for a reason: to help people!

The worst reason for having plastic surgery
Quite often you hear people talking about why they want to have plastic surgery. Has anyone ever told you what the absolute worst reason is for having plastic surgery?
Few people realize that when they visit a plastic surgeon for an initial consultation for a plastic surgery procedure that the surgeon is interviewing them just as much as the candidate is interviewing the surgeon! It's the responsibility of the surgeon to determine whether or not you are physically and mentally able to undergo surgery. If the surgeon suspects that you may be seeking surgery for the wrong reasons, you'll be rejected as a surgical candidate altogether.
Can you guess what the #1 reason for rejection is? It's this: if you are seeking surgery to please a spouse or partner, then you are seeking surgery for the wrong reason. The ideal surgical candidate wants to undergo surgery to please one person and one person only: herself!

Why women have breast augmentation
There are several reasons why women get breast implants. The first and foremost is they want to have bigger breasts! That's a pretty easy one to figure out, isn't it?
Before we talk about the reasons why a woman would want breast implants, it's important to understand that invasive surgery comes with an inherent set of risks. Breast augmentation, which involves the insertion of breast implants into a woman's breast pockets, carries its own unique set of risks - those risks are called rupture and leakage. To learn more about rupture and leakage, I suggest you read this article.
Women who are born with small breasts or virtually no breasts at all are often seeking to enhance their bust size. In this scenario, a woman might simply want to be more "normal" like other women. She might have had unpleasant experiences with friends, family, or even men she dated. Often times, the woman with small breasts believes that buying implants will elevate her quality of life and her relationships not only with men, but everyone she knows. And the truth is, she's right. People will subconsciously judge people they interact with based on their physical appearance. It can't be avoided. It's human nature - we all do it, even you.
Another great reason for a woman to get breast implants is to simply improve her self esteem. Although her new implants may improve her physical appearance, she is really just trying to feel better about herself. Most people who undergo plastic surgery are simply trying to elevate their self esteem and self confidence. While many people believe they are undergoing surgery for physical enhancement, the true reason is much more psychological: they want to feel better about themselves. And it goes without saying that when a person feels better about themselves, their whole life improves. Elevated self confidence translates into improved interactions with everyone you encounter.
Can you guess another valid reason why women get breast implants? One word: money! If she has any kind of job that is dependent upon her ability to interact with the public, she needs to look her absolute best at all times. The better her appearance, the higher her paycheck. That rule doesn't just apply to women either - pretty people make more money than their counterparts at work.
Aging is probably the most popular reason women get breast implants. When a woman gets into her thirties, her breasts will begin to sag and droop. The change is subtle at first, but quickly escalates as she gets older. Such is life. This process starts much sooner if she's had children and breast fed them. Mother Nature is a bit cruel when it comes to aging women, that and the fact that men typically chase youth and beauty over age and maturity makes the breast implant business very profitable.

Why women have plastic surgery
If you live in southern California, you've probably noticed that most women are unnaturally perfect. They have perfect, round breasts. They have symmetrical, full lips. Their skin is flawless. They don't have wrinkles of any kind, even though they're well past their fortieth birthday. How is this possible? Are women in California impervious to aging? Hardly!
