It took us 4 years, not 5 to get our first million teams using our site,. Just the feedback I needed to get to work. How would I, a 24 year-old law school dropout with no business experience, no money and no connections do that? I talked to some smart, successful mentors who told me it was impossible.
I thought I could do that within 5 years. I wanted to get 1 million (!!!) teams using a web site I would build. In the process, I had a vision that within 5 years every team and league in the US would be using the web for everything-schedules, standings, directions to the field, pictures Grandma and Grandpa could check out if they missed the game, etc. The only thing I knew I wanted to do (besides burn my resume :) was coach a Little League Baseball team. The most vivid memory: I was a 24 year-old law school drop out in 1998. I’m smiling as I remember the times in my own life when the “experts” I consulted told me I couldn’t do something. So, without further adieu, let’s jump in with his definition of Prosperity and then dance through the roots of other words associated with money while we explore the heart of spiritual economics!
As a Unity minister, he eloquently, compassionately, brilliantly and forcefully establishes his principles of economics. Since my initial read, I’ve picked this book up at least half a dozen times and have been blown away by the love Butterworth exudes in his words. If you’re like me, I have zero doubt you’ll also find them transformative. Spiritual Economics and The Science of Getting Rich (see Notes) were two of the most influential “wealth/abundance” books I read during a critical phase in my life in which I was really starting to bring my life into integrity around money. If so, this book is pretty much a must read. Are you committed to discovering who you are and how you can give yourself most fully to the world? AND how you can consciously circulate wealth in the world as you give your gifts, support others, and support yourself? (That, btw, is pretty much a pre-requisite to truly living your hero’s journey.)
