A is for abundance

Definition of Abundance: an extremely plentiful or oversufficient supply, affluence, wealth, the opposite of scarcity.

Now we know that’s not particularly easy to think about abundance and attracting wealth when you’re trying hard to make ends meet but thinking about lack rather than abundance helps keep you broke.

There is an abundance of money in this world. Don’t believe me? Take a look at the stock market and see how many shares are being bought and sold on the New York Stock Exchange – on average about 1.6 billion shares a day. That’s a lot of money.

Think back to times on your life when you really needed something, maybe money or something else, and it came to you. Remember that feeling and focus on it. For us when we have really, really needed money it’s always turned up. Now we could receive that money through a mistake at a bank (our mistake not the banks), some unexpected work or us going out to find new clients. Money turning up doesn’t mean that you sit around and wait for something to happen. You still have to take action. Jerry Clarke says that by thought you ask for something and by action it is received.

Think about some of the actions that you’ve taken and how they would have been different, if you hadn’t been worried about money. A lot of the time we are so focused on scarcity (the opposite of abundance) that we don’t even notice that we are focused on lack. A lot of people when they look at a menu at a good restaurant look at the prices to decide what they want as well as looking at the food on offer. We are changing our wants and our desires to suit our thinking that life isn’t abundant. That’s when we are truly unhappy – when we settle for something we don’t want.

Attracting wealth starts in your thinking. Move your thinking from lack to abundance and it will show up in your life. If you are in a bad financial situation right now first start by knowing and believing that it’s temporary. That is a wealth secret. If you think that are broke but you’re not poor then you’ll find a way to prove that you’re not poor. If you believe that you’re poor then the battle for wealth success is already over regardless of what you do.

Know that you always have options.

Forgive yourself for any actions that you see at present as mistakes. Over time those actions (or inactions) that you think were mistakes may be opportunities leading you to somewhere else.

You simply have to change your thinking from “I can’t afford” to “How can I afford…?” By saying “I can’t….” the brain stops working on a solution but by saying “How can I afford?” then the brain sets to work.

Abundance is all around us. There are enormous quantities of money flowing around the world. How would you like yours delivered to you?

Wealth quote: "People with a scarcity mentality tend to see everything in terms of win-lose. There is only so much; and if someone else has it, that means there will be less for me. The more principle-centered we become, the more we develop an abundance mentality, the more we are genuinely happy for the successes, well-being, achievements, recognition, and good fortune of other people. We believe their success adds to...rather than detracts from...our lives.” ~ Stephen R. Covey
