There are tools that you can use for having abundance in your life that you might not be aware of. They include: astrology, recording dreams, meditating, requesting Benevolent Outcomes, and expecting great things. Here’s how I’ve utilized them.
When I was 17, I decided I wanted to be worth one million U.S. dollars by the time I was thirty. My Dad didn’t have very much money, and I had to work in a supermarket my last two years in high school just to pay for my first year of college. Even with a small band scholarship I had to live illegally in the dormitory the first year. I earned money in college washing dishes, selling men’s clothes, and as an apprentice electrician. My major was Finance, as I thought that would surely help me achieve my goal.
Besides working, I chose as my extra curricular activities being on the Entertainment Committee, Dance Committee, and The All University Trip Committee. Little did I know those interests would turn into my two major careers.
My first career took off after I returned to Dallas following my Army discharge (which helped pay my college tuition the last two years) in the late 1960’s. I took various jobs—selling insurance, pots and pans, knives and keys, townhouses, and newspaper advertising to pay bills as I started a tour company—a singles snow ski club. This eventually grew to over 1,400 people, but while still in its growth stages I picked up the local newspaper one day and read a story about a local astrologer that was predicting the Dallas Cowboys football team would not go to the Superbowl that year, and he gave 10 reasons or so why they wouldn’t. But he did say they would go the following year. I had never read anything like that, so I tore the page out and put it in a desk drawer.
I would simply say, “I request a Most Benevolent Outcome (to or for)…., thank you!” and it was magical what would happen.
At the end of the football season I took the page out of my drawer, and he had been correct on approximately 80% of the reasons why they didn’t win enough games for the championship. I didn’t know how he was able to do that, as all I had read were the daily predictions that most newspapers print. So one year in advance, I reserved 300 airline seats from Dallas to Miami, Florida, site of the next Superbowl.
I also started learning more about astrology and started having my ski club parties on days with beneficial aspects. This became my first tool for abundance. The parties were greatly successful, the ski club grew and I had many more people on the ski trips. Then the following January the Dallas Cowboys did go to the Superbowl for the first time, and I was the first tour operator in Dallas to ever run a trip to the Superbowl. I made quite a bit of money—enough to purchase our first duplex—and start a travel agency to handle our many ski trips. The travel agency expanded into Las Vegas and Cayman Island trips, and my company evolved into a wholesale and eventually international wholesale tour company. We ultimately sold the company to a conglomerate in Chicago.
In 1979 I started recording my dreams on a daily basis. After only a couple of weeks I had a vivid dream of an explosion and a woman and some men involved. It was so vivid that my wife and I changed the itinerary of a trip we had planned to Manila for a world conference of travel agents and added extra days to Taiwan and Hong Kong.
The first day of the conference terrorists exploded a bomb in the front of the hall where I normally like to sit. They arrested a woman from the Philippine trade office in Los Angeles and four men. After that I’ve recorded my dreams every single morning, keeping a dream journal, flashlight, and a dreamer’s dictionary handy. I’ve had many precognitive dreams since then, many about my business-- another tool for abundance.
