At 9 PM Beijing time on November 18, after refueling was completed, the Starship was launched on time amidst the attention of the crowd and cheers from the people. All 33 Raptor engines operated without a hitch, starting up normally with full power, and remarkably, the Starship launch pad was undamaged. The Starship ascended steadily towards space. When the Starship reached 50 kilometers in space, 2 minutes and 50 seconds after launch, it completed thermal separation from the rocket and ultimately reached near-Earth space at a distance of 149 kilometers from Earth. The successful test flight of the Starship is not only a victory for human aviation technology but also a victory for Musk's perseverance in his dreams. All experts predicted that Musk would fail, but a miracle happened! The smooth launch of the Starship and its entry into space laid a solid foundation for future cosmic exploration and Mars colonization plans.
Warm congratulations to Musk on the successful launch of the SPACEX Starship!
In fact, whether this SPACEX Starship launch was successful is not important; what matters is that Musk's dream is further realized, allowing for rapid trial and error and quick iteration. Musk's Tesla has become one of the most profitable stocks in the world. Musk's dream is the great dream of humanity breaking through Earth civilization, and he is undoubtedly the world's richest person! Dreams are part of individual consciousness.
Musk is a genius who combines courage and wisdom. With his own dream, he supports humanity's exploration of space and the dream of colonizing Mars, and he is also a perfect case of integrating consciousness, the law of attraction, and money. Tesla's stock, in its rise, pullbacks, splits, bottoming, rebounds, and surges, almost synchronizes with Musk's failures and successes.
Human consciousness is an infinite realm that transcends our limited perceptions of the physical world. Consciousness encompasses elements such as imagination, dreams, feelings, inspiration, and intuition. Each person's understanding of consciousness depends on their individual energy level, presenting a myriad of forms. Although the fate of wealth suggests that what is meant to be will be, and what is not meant to be should not be forced, in the ups and downs of life, holding onto unwavering faith, not fearing difficulties, and not shying away from dangers may allow one to find a glimmer of their own light at the intersection of opportunity and personal effort, creating their own brilliance.
The law of attraction, as a philosophy of the mind, posits that what we attract resonates with our current inner state. This law is like a magic mirror, where our inner beliefs and emotions manifest in the real world. The saying goes, "Dreams are aided by divine help," meaning that the more you desire, the more you think about it, and the more you consistently believe that your vision will come true, miracles will be realized through continuous practice and longing. There are countless examples of this. Money has a mysterious power; it allows us to experience feelings of success, luxury, generosity, and sharing, enriching our life's journey in this boundless ocean of consciousness.
Having money does not equate to having power, nor is it an excuse to give up on improving one's abilities. In prosperous times, money can bring people much joy. No one would refuse happiness; pursuing money is not materialism but believing in the words written on the dollar: "In God We Trust," which translates to "我们相信上帝" in Chinese. "In God We Trust" is the national motto of the United States and the official motto on U.S. paper currency and coins, a testament to the divine power of money in a free and civilized nation.
In the afternoon, I delved into ARNOLD PATENT's "The Wealthy Mindset," which discusses the 15 fundamental qualities of becoming wealthy. Combining this with the news of Musk's successful Starship launch trending this morning, I strongly agree with the book's discussion on the role of money in supporting careers and how careers, to some extent, witness a kind of divine power. This perspective is vividly reflected in Musk's success; money is not just a symbol of wealth but also a catalyst and magical force that drives entrepreneurship and career advancement.
How to acquire wealth? First, change your consciousness, sever the impoverished perception of the truth of this world, and expand your upward wealth circle.
Severing the consciousness of poverty: Imagine an individual who was once deeply trapped in poverty, lingering on the edge of destitution, unable to escape the plight of life. Of course, this individual is not in a war-torn country, facing life-threatening conditions. In a civilized society, if an individual can adjust their inner state, utilize the law of attraction, and realize that wealth is not accidental but closely related to their inner state, they can sever the consciousness of poverty through meditation, positive thinking, and guiding positive energy. As the saying goes: "A thought turns, and the market turns." They will soon attract opportunities and escape the plight of poverty.
For example, Jack Ma, known to all Chinese, is one of the founders of Alibaba Group. In his youth, Ma experienced a series of failures and setbacks, including multiple failures in college entrance exams and difficult career experiences. However, through a positive mindset, relentless innovation, and keen insight into business opportunities, he ultimately succeeded in creating Alibaba, developing it into one of the largest e-commerce and technology companies in the world.
Another example is Oprah Winfrey, a famous media personality, entrepreneur, and philanthropist from a poor family in Mississippi. During her childhood and adolescence, she faced family instability, poverty, and various hardships. However, Oprah did not give up; instead, she changed her fate through a positive inner state and self-discipline.
She demonstrated extraordinary eloquence and expression at a young age, which allowed her to shine in the radio and television industry. However, she gained national recognition by hosting the talk show "The Oprah Winfrey Show." This program achieved tremendous success through her efforts and unique hosting style, making her one of the most popular talk show hosts in America.
Oprah's transformation is closely related to her change in inner state and mindset. Through positive thinking and a proactive attitude, she overcame various difficulties in life. She firmly believed in her ability to change her destiny, and through continuous effort, learning, and striving, she gradually found the path to success. Her success story serves as an inspiration to many, emphasizing the key role of inner strength and trust in one's potential in achieving personal goals.
Expanding the upward social wealth circle:
The law of attraction also plays an important role in the social realm. To elevate one's status in social networks, one must not remain in their comfort zone but actively expand their upward social circle. This not only brings individuals broader interpersonal resources but also helps change social perceptions, gaining more recognition and support.
Wendi Deng, the ex-wife of Rupert Murdoch, is a great example; her success in the social realm demonstrates the importance of upward socializing. Wendi Deng is a businesswoman born in China who once worked as a host for Shanghai Television and later married media mogul Rupert Murdoch.
Through this marriage, Wendi Deng not only joined the family of a global business leader like Murdoch but also entered the international social circle. She actively participated in various social activities, establishing extensive connections with figures in politics, business, and culture. This not only brought her broader interpersonal resources but also provided her with more opportunities in her career.
Wendi Deng's social success highlights the importance of upward socializing. By interacting with Murdoch and his social circle, she expanded her influence and recognition. This social ability not only helped her develop in the entertainment and cultural fields but also made her a prominent public figure. This example emphasizes the value of proactively expanding relationships and connecting with successful individuals in the social realm.
Through the mirror of consciousness, civilization experiences the myriad phenomena of the world, transcending the limited perceptions of the body, including sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Consciousness is like an endless ocean, formless yet vast, its definition depending on the different energy levels of each individual. When we equate consciousness with a narrow mindset, the scientific methods yield only the limitations of the material level. However, as followers of money, we understand that there are immeasurable, transcendent factors in consciousness, such as imagination, dreams, feelings, inspiration, and intuition.
Money, as something closely connected to feelings, becomes the key medium for us to reclaim our innate talents. Every moment and every experience in life needs to be felt with intention. Humans are emotional beings, and the degree of openness of our hearts determines how we can feel our true selves, thus obtaining more abundant wealth.
The flow of money is the flow of feng shui; investing wealth in the right path and directing the wind towards goodness will surely attract positive resonance. Money has true value only when used for meaningful things; otherwise, it is just a piece of paper that gradually depreciates. In the circulation of money, experiencing the richness that money brings to life is our mission on this blue planet.
