James Arthur Ray | Create wealth in all areas of your life

Do you love what you do?

Would you do it for free if necessary? Not that you have to by any means... But do you love it that much?

You should... Because life is precious, and you're literally trading your precious life for what you do--moment by moment, day by day. Think about it...

You spend more time making your living than you spend with the people you love the most.

So find your purpose and your passion, and follow it with excellence. Do for the sake of "doing" versus "getting." Do it very well, and the money will follow in avalanches of abundance as a by-product.

Your purpose is your love and passion made manifest through action. Once you find your unique purpose in life, you are truly blessed and rare...

So be daring and courageous, for greatness follows bravado, and fate favors the bold.

Not sure how to love what you do? Here are a few practical tips I shared on Fox Business Network's Fast Track:

To your continued wealth and happiness,

Wow. that's interesting. You know I read my email subject, thinking James is going to be vague and just say "Do what you love. It's what Bill Gates did. etc." But the part about thinking what moves you in movies and music and following the pattern is very interesting. Thanks a lot James my man. Hopefully will see you in that seminar in San Francisco in March.

James Ray! You came to NYC and didn't call? Pfffffffft! ;-)

Great succinct interview, powerfully on point.

You mention in your post that following your passion opens the flow of avalanches of money abundance as a by-product. Equally as important, it also brings avalanches of absolute joy as you fully resonate with your inner spirit and soul level purpose!

With Love and Joy,

Amy

I can't believe it's the end of another year! 2007 was such a wonderful year of growth and expansion!

BUT...

2008 is going to make 2007 look tame! I'm so excited!!

Take it easy on David Asman on tomorrow!
