We use words to give meaning to things and expression to thoughts. Words define the material existence of things. We use words to create concepts. Words are energy and words can be very powerful.
In order to live we must generate income. Therefore the question may be asked, “How do you make a living or what is your business?” In order to network and share your product(s) you may use a business plan or business card. When you meet with clients or potential investors you may have “business meetings”. What is “business”?
Here is the Dictionary.com definitions of business ~~> noun 1.an occupation, profession, or trade: His business is poultry farming. 2. the purchase and sale of goods in an attempt to make a profit. 3. a person, partnership, or corporation engaged in commerce, manufacturing, or a service; profit-seeking enterprise or concern.4. volume of trade; patronage:
The root word of business is busy which is an adjective and defined by Dictionary.com as 1.actively and attentively engaged in work or a pastime: busy with her work.2.not at leisure; otherwise engaged: He couldn’t see any visitors because he was busy.3.full of or characterized by activity: a busy life.4.(of a telephone line) in use by a party or parties and not immediately accessible. 5.officious; meddlesome; prying.
When I hear the word busy I think of the absence of time! We all have asked someone to do something for us and their response may have been I’m busy. Truly, when someone responds this way how does this make you feel? When I here the word business or my association with business’s automatically gives me a negative connotation or association as if the business doesn’t have time to service me or the service(s) they may provide disconnects me the customer/recipient due to just getting the job done, being engaged, or just making a profit.
The suffix ness is the condition or quality of. So if bus(y) “I” ness is way to share resources and products, the process of handling company affairs, being engaged in company affairs, which main concern is making a profit then no wonder the quality of service and products is declining with most companies ie business’s. Of course I’m speaking from the top of the pyramid the owner’s practices are the practices of the company. The roles of the business associates have some power to affect the company-business with their own personal services and energies. But even associates are some what affected by the merit of their bosses’ practices- cutting hours and limited benefits so the company can continue to profit. This will eventually create an absence of quality service(s) and product(s). Therefore, Business and Corporations aren’t building quality brands due to greed which is creating a negative vacuum and a disconnection of positive energy. This doesn’t allow sustainable relationship to build in the exchange of goods and services.
My counterpart’s soul has a disconnection with the word business and what it represents. So much so that he has a difficulty marketing his services if he must associate with the practices of business. Our thoughts and feelings create the results we see materialize in our lives. My counterpart and I have many gifts and services that we would like to share with the world. And in doing so we are working towards making a living from the things we are passionate about while getting paid for it. How can we do this when the way of the world’s exchange of goods and services is that of greed a negative expression of energy? We must change this paradigm of business!
Here’s how! We would like the way we exchange goods and services to be positive, having connecting relationships, and all parties involved sharing in the gains of the company.
I’ve been thinking of other ways to express how we make a living and practices we can stand on. And I came up with three different ways of expressing our way of doing “business” and its practices. One of them is “Wealthness” the other is “Wealth-nest”. Lastly, “Wellness” which is the word of choice my counterpart decided to use upon our discussion on this topic to describe what it is that he does.
Dictionary. com definition of wealth~~> noun1.a great quantity or store of money, valuable possessions, property, or other riches: the wealth of a city.2.an abundance or profusion of anything; plentiful amount: a wealth of imagery.3. Economics a.all things that have a monetary or exchange value.b.anything that has utility and is capable of being appropriated or exchanged. 4.rich or valuable contents or produce: the wealth of the soil.5.the state of being rich; prosperity; affluence: persons of wealth and standing.
After reading the definition about “wealth” who wouldn’t wanna be associated with the qualities of being “wealthy” and the energy it evokes. Speaking of energy lets talk about the Universal Law that correlates with “wealth” to gain more understanding of how the energy of wealth consciousness is created.
This information I am quoting directly from the book “The Light Shall Set You Free” By Dr’s. Milanovich and McCune and will be highlighted:
“The Law of Compensation- is the law which helps us to understand abundance and how we can deal with financial matters. This Universal Law is the Law of Cause and Effect (Karma) applied to blessings and abundance that are bestowed on us. While the Law of Cause and Effect (Karma) deals primarily with events, the Law of Compensation deals with the material and spiritual gains we receive in life. It is in the manifestation of this law that we see the visible effects of our deeds are given to us in gifts, money, inheritances, friendships, and blessings.”
“People are successful in life because they do more for others and because they have an attitude that supports success. If you want to get more out of life, then you must give more with right thoughts, emotions, actions, and words every time you give a gift or perform a service for someone else.”
Here is some of Master El Morya’s Transmission on the Law of Compensation:
v “The Law of Compensation is about giving and receiving.”
v “The law is flawless in its design. Basically, it says that for everything given there shall be a return. But there is a twist to this law that not everyone realizes. This twist is called the Law of Tenfold Return. What this law reveals is that once a person learns to give freely from the heart, the universe returns the gift with tenfold yield. This supports the premise that {It Is Better To Give Than To Receive}.”
v “Compensation is also a reflection of a person’s multidimensional thinking, {As A Man Thinketh, So Shall He Become}. “
I have one more source to reference which is “The Science of Getting Rich” By Wallace D. Wattles. Highlighted here:
Chapter 14
The Impression of Increase
Ø “Do everything that you do in the firm conviction that you are an advancing personality, and that you are giving advancement to everybody.”
Ø “Feel that you are getting rich, and that in so doing you are making others rich, and conferring benefits on all.”
Ø “You must so impress others that they will feel that in associating with you they will get increase for themselves. See that you give them a use a value greater than the cash value you are taking from them.”
Ø “Take an honest pride in doing this, and let everybody know it; and you will have no lack of customers. People will go where they are given increase; and the Supreme, which desires increase in all, and which knows all, will move toward you men and women who have never heard of you. Your “business” will increase rapidly, and you will be surprised at the unexpected benefits which will come to you. You will be able from day to day to make larger combinations, secure greater advantages, and to go on into more congenial vocation if you desire to do so.”
Ø “Beware of the competitive mind!!!! No better statement of the principle of creative action can be formulated than the favorite declaration of the late “Golden Rule” Jones of Toledo: {What I Want For Myself, I Want For Everybody}.”
Through our thoughts and actions we give definitions to words and express these energies into the world. “Wealthness” is great quantity, valuable possessions, abundance, The Law of Compensation” and “The Science to Getting Rich” this is the state of being we are expressing here at “I Love Livin Lifestyle” in the goods and services we are contributing in to the universe!
“Wealth-nest” is a protected retreat of “Wealthness”!

Being “Well” actually speaks for itself. I just couldn’t help sharing all the wonderful words, connotations, and definitions of the world well.
And I understand why my counterpart says, “he’s in “Wellness” instead of “business” because the gifts, goods and services he invest in his clients and everyone he meets encompasses “Being well” and he is “Wellness”!
