STOP CHASING MONEY
Written by, Donaven Clarke
Lets Talk About It
Within America it is engrained in many of us to chase money. Chase a career, chase a business, chase success. For within the chase you will receive “The American Dream”. The house, the car, the stability. Well I will lay out the truth here right now… the chase is false.

What makes the chase false
So before we can speak on what makes the chase false we have to define the act of chasing. To chase is to go after and pursue something in order to obtain it. It is a verb of an ongoing action.
When the police chase a speeding vehicle, they are not always able to detain the suspect. When a woman chases a robber who has stolen her purse, she is typically found unsuccessful. Simply chasing something does not mean, even in the slightest, that you will obtain it.
So inherently that means that when you chase money, no matter if it is for 10, 15, 20 years. You have no guarantee that your pursuit will be worth while. You can end up in the same relative position as when you first began the chase. This is what makes the pursuit of money false.
Alter Your Reality
For you to achieve financial prosperity their needs to be a complete change in your perspective. To impact the physical realm you need to change your spirit. Changing your spirit self, causes the mental to change which then leads to the physical to change. All of these changes leads to an altering of your reality.
There are many, and I mean many poor spirits who do not know their worth. Day in and day out, they work tirelessly, believing that life is simply meant to be this way: that the only way to make a dollar is to slave away for forty years and still remain poor.
Through the power of God, my parents broke the generational curse of poverty. They were spiritually rich even when they did not have much money. That spiritual richness, inherited from God, flowed into their minds and eventually transformed the physical. As a result, they learned how to invest their money, save wisely, and pay off debt.
