• If you believe that you must work hard in order to deserve the money that comes to you, then money cannot come to you unless you do work hard. Financial success, or any other kind of success, does not require hard work. It does require alignment of thought.

When you learn to direct your own thoughts, you will discover the true leverage of Energy alignment.
