Why is Manifesting so against some people in certain religions?

  Why is Manifesting so against some people in certain religions? I have to get into a deeper self concept here, yes, reading and searching, but like anything else related to religion, the answer is deep in your soul. Some people I have noticed the tremendous rejection of manifesting, and even saying “Do you mean Manifesting or Praying?” well see the thing is that manifesting doesn't happen without praying. Manifesting is the act of calling into something we desire, want, aspire to into our physical reality, that means, we want to experience that desire into our lives. So if you are calling it, what do you mean? To what process are you calling it? You are calling it through prayer. Prayer is the act of expression to request something (desire, want, aspiration, help, even gratitude) in our lives. I remember when I mentioned the bible and I quote “ Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. Mark 11:24.  If you a...

Scam vs Fraud: Understanding the Key Differences

  Scam vs Fraud: Understanding the Key Differences In the world of finance and banking, the terms 'scam' and 'fraud' are often used interchangeably, but they hold distinct meanings and implications. As a banker with a keen interest in protecting consumers, I find it crucial to clarify these concepts.

Ordinary Woman making Extraordinary tiny steps

An Ordinary Woman making Extraordinary tiny steps. From the Instagram Post on Mindful Tasks Academy I remember sitting in my class on the last semester, and the teacher shared the information about the potential career we can expect ahead, on the board he wrote two columns, the financial advisor and the financial planner option, the next line under each career he wrote the numbers that, potentially, these careers can have in return, on financial advisor he wrote 100k a year, and under financial planner 50k a year, he also explain the reason why financial advisor was potentially higher than financial planner, most kids in the classroom, I said kids because I was a woman in my late 30s and early 40s when I return to a classroom, and the kids were mid 20s or even some early 20s.  Ok, so the kids were very enthusiastic about making 100k a year, at this point I had already put on my vision board 90k a year. My military career had just ended, and I was more towards Financial Planner bec...

Money: The Uninvited Third Wheel in Relationships

Money: The Third Wheel in Relationships When it comes to romantic relationships, the notion of a 'third wheel' often conjures images of an awkward friend tagging along on a couple's date night. Yet, for many couples, the most persistent third wheel isn't a person—it's money. Money plays a pivotal role in the dynamics of many relationships, and understanding its influence is vital for harmony and growth. The Presence of Money in Relationships Money has a way of silently permeating all aspects of a relationship. From the excitement of the first date (Who pays? Split the bill?) to the complexities of shared expenses in cohabitation or marriage, financial considerations are ever-present. Money decisions can symbolize deeper values, priorities, and desires. Couples must understand each other beliefs, discipline, integrity, and goals about and around money. The relationship a person has with money can affect the byproduct of such. This means, if a person brings debt into ...
