Great topic!
The mind is so so powerful, whatever we place value on is going to be a focus in our life. If we make money valuable like we have, we'll sacrifice great things for it, like our health and happiness. If we value our jobs and security more than say, spending time with family, it can detract from our life in some way. We have so much power to re-allocate our value system and change our lives in the process.
I recently did this with food, opting to give up more of one thing(money) for higher quality and local food which I value for a number of reasons.
