Editor's Notes

  1. Mindful Wealth We describe this as a state wherein wealth transcends money. The word wealth is derived from the word weal, which means well being. Mindfulness is a concept describing a state of being that is centered and present in the moment. While this may sound like an altered state, or something involving mantras, chanting or other-worldliness, it is actuallly a very practical, down to earth manner of living at peace in the moment. How this results from our approach will be addressed more fully later. When you look at this diagram, you see the intersections and overlaps between each of the separate areas. It would probably be useful to talk a little bit about what these overlaps mean, because they address very real areas of financial planning, and help deal with some of the problems that arise in the process.
