Stress Relief Blog

Most entrepreneurs and solopreneurs based their success on getting material assets.

Cecil: No it’s not, but that’s the myth. The myth is that it’s stress. We have been taught from a young age to acquire material assets. That’s the barometer. That tells us that we’ve “arrived.”

Wayne: If that’s what you’re focused on, does that not cause more and more stress?

Cecil: Initially, it doesn’t appear that way. It appears that you are after your outcome and that it’s okay.

It’s like going to the buffet table. You go up to the buffet table and see all your favourite stuff. You have a choice. You can take a little bit and come back tomorrow, or you can take as much as you want and become constipated.

What we do in the context of the material possessions is we become constipated because we just want more and more and more. After a while, the constipation sets in because we’re not happy and we’re not going anywhere.

You say, “I thought I needed material assets.” Yes, your assets are important. Material possessions are necessary for us to function in some form or fashion, but excess is where the problem is.

The question then is, “If you want more and more Physical assets, who do you, need them for?” What I’ve discovered from my experience is a lot of us need them for attention or to prove something in a material context.

That’s fine, but the consequence is you’ll pay with your health.

It’s going after the material assets, focusing on that and neglecting your family, your children and your wife that puts a lot of stress on you. Stress accumulates over the years because you’re not really interested in anything else but material possessions.

You still have to live your life.

You still have to communicate with your family and whoever is around you.

You might have the material possessions, but I’ve seen a lot of cases where people have the material assets and I see them in the hospital.

They say, “Cecil, I never thought I would be in here.”

We don’t understand that we need to have a balance in life. You just can’t go focusing on the material. We also have to look at ourselves internally and what helps us to stay healthy so that we can enjoy our lives.

Now that you understand the secret principle on how to acquire material assets, you can consider paying more attention to yourself because you are the key to your health and happiness.

What is so exciting about these new perspectives, is that they can accelerate the journey on your road of business success, or revive a flagging effort you may have abandoned, and inject you with new hope and energy.

Wayne: Your partner and money stress you out.

Unfortunately, there is very little communication about who is supposed to do what and what date it’s supposed be done. No one says, “Hon, we’re supposed do this,” or “Were these things done?”

Nobody checks on the other person to make sure that they’re done. What happens when a problem comes up is you assume it was paid. You get a phone call about it. You say, “My wife paid it.” No.

The issue is a lack of communication. We’re not talking, especially about money.

Sometimes one party is making more money than the other. I’ve been told that making more money makes the other person feel smaller.

In a relationship, you need to be able to discuss it. “These are the facts. This needs to be done. That needs to be done.”

Today, one party may make more money than the other. Tomorrow, your partner might be laid off or you might be laid off.

It goes both ways. In relationships, things fluctuate.

Wayne: Why does that even matter?

Cecil: It matters because there is a lack of communication. That is what the whole issue is.

I had somebody phone me. She said, “Cecil, I’m dating this person and he wants to get married.”

I said, “What’s the problem?”

She said, “I haven’t finished my university and this person has finished.

This person says its okay.”

I said, “What the problem?”

She said, “I want to finish.”

I said, “You will get married.

If the person can say that to you right now, then that person understands. He might be making money today. You will go to university. Someday, you’ll make money and maybe he won’t. It doesn’t matter.”

No matter how long you have been in a relationship, chances are you are missing this key step to stress and money. The good news: So start to have better communication as I outlined above to solve your problem and insure your healthy and happy life style.
