1 " Accepting our greatness means no longer playing small. It often starts with baby steps. But eventually it means making major changes - in our lives, jobs, relationships, and dreams. If I had believed in my own self-worth, I would never have been willing to make the financial moves I made in the past. If I'd known my value, I couldn't have spent so many years ignoring the whispering - and sometimes screaming - voice that told me to leave my marriage. For a long time, that truth was just too scary and painful for me to face. Talk about keeping my head in the sand! But how many years did I waste, postponing what has proven to be a much better life - simply because I went into hiding and didn't see that I was worthy of something better? "

2 " When we change and grow into new versions of ourselves, we have to tolerate a lot of uncertainty. "
3 " Whether we make our own money or rely on someone else, many of us would rater pretend our financial matters don't exist. Or we hope they'll just take care of themselves somehow. My ex-husband was like that. He always said, "I bank by prayer. I go to the ATM and pray that money will come out. "

7 " Wealth is not about having a lot of money. It’s about having a lot of options.” If you have a high net worth, you have an abundance of opportunities. "
8 " Our outer world reflects our inner commitments. If we want to know what we are really committed to, all we have to do is look at our lives. We are, whether we are aware of it or not, always creating exactly what we are most committed to. It is vital to understand that the choices we make are always in alignment with our deepest commitments. By examining what we have and what we don’t have, we will be able to uncover and see what we are truly committed to. When our lives are not the way we want them to be, we can be certain we have a conflicting hidden—underlying—commitment to something other than that which we say we are committed to. "

11 " High” net worth is a feeling of wholeness. In other words, I don’t just want you to have more money, I want you to be free to create the life that makes you happy—whatever that means to you. "
12 " And just in case you interpret boundary setting as callous and unloving, I want to be clear: naming my limits doesn’t give me permission to walk all over anyone else’s boundaries or refuse to be generous.
