Last Monday Judith had planned a teleclass outing of the Intermediate Masterminds to see the wonderful  Michael Neill at St James’ church in Picadilly.  Thanks to the idiosyncracies of the Northern Line, I arrived a few minutes late.  Unable to distinguish the back of Judith’s head from the back view of many other heads gazing in rapt attention on the speaker, I slipped into a side pew to enjoy the talk.

Needless to say,  Michael already had the audience in the palm of his hand.  He introduced us to different kinds of decision making - the head? the heart? the Universe? which came as a welcome revelation.  He spoke about setting really big, inspiring goals and you could sense the audience’s excitement.  He moved on to success, to little nods and murmurs of approval. 

And then he got to the ‘M’ word.  He asked, enjoining us to fill in the blanks, according to our own desires: "Is making how much money?  In what time frame?  For what purpose? A worthy goal?"   I sat there nodding and smiling cheerfully.  Michael prolonged the silence, so everyone would really focus on the question.

In that silence I started to look around and become aware of the atmosphere in the hall.  It had become uncomfortable, a sort of subliminal squirm.  Nor was there another nodding head anywhere that I could see.  (Judith and her little group were not visible from where I sat.)  Nobody there in my line of sight felt comfortable with the notion that making money was a worthy goal.

Naturally, Michael went on to explain how it is,and how one of his goals is to donate $1,000,000 to charity.  (Somehow I feel that he won’t mind me - or anyone else - copying that one.) That’s not just a worthy goal, it’s a positively sexy one.  It’s also feasible. 

The Money Gym is all about raising your game and your goals.  So what’s your big, sexy, worthy goal?
