Yes I know, not exactly a cheery subject but I did indeed loose a friend the other day. Why? Did I cause them pain or anguish? Was I nasty to them? Did I not deliver on a promise I was meant to? Maybe I had been talking about them behind their back?

Not likely, all of the above just aren’t me. I cherish my friends and would never intentionally hurt any of them.

So, what an earth happened. If, as it seems, I did nothing wrong, did I loose a friend?

You’ll be shocked when I tell you…… I posted a video to Facebook. Yep. That’s it. That’s all I did. A video that wasn’t even of me. No, it was an interview of Robert Kiyosaki and it made my ‘friends’ blood boil.

I’ve attached the video to this post.

She obviously didn’t like what Mr Kiyosaki had to say, which is fair enough. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But what got to me and what got me thinking were her comments.

Apparently, now that I want and desire more for myself, my family, my loved ones and my clients, I am greedy and money obsessed. I am no longer the ‘cool’ person she meet four years a go. No, I am now a ‘Stepford Robot’. And she has now deleted me from her Facebook friends.

I am, apparently, a part of a cult!

I have to admit, these comments did sting a bit. Especially when I know  them to be untrue.

This is however, not the first time I have been presented with such opinions on what I do, the company I keep and the direction my life is taking. Although the ‘Stepford Robot’ one is new

So my question is this…. What are people so afraid of when it comes to success and wealth?

Is it fear of being left behind?

Fear of power?

Fear of control? Or lack of it?

Fear of the unknown?

Why, because I am successful and I help others find success, does my ‘friend’ no longer want to know me?

I of course know I do not need negative energies like this in my life. Better to find out now than later. But it does in intrigue me.

I would love to get your comments on this.

Is it wrong to want to be wealthy?

Is ‘rich’ an ugly word?

Am I a part of a cult?

Does success mean you are a mean person?

Or, is this person just very, very afraid for their own future and realises they aren’t taking the necessary steps they need to secure the life they desire to have?

Let me know your thoughts… And experiences!

To your (dare I say it?) Success, health and happiness
