Abundance Mindset = Abundance and Prosperity

We all want abundance and prosperity in life. We want to be remembered as honest, successful and ethical, hardworking people that left this planet a better place than when we found it. We want the kind of prosperity that allows us to leave a real legacy for our children, for our grandchildren, and their children and their grandchildren. But how we can talk about creating abundance when it seems we live in a world of limited resources?

Let me ask you an honest question, when was the last time that you heard someone say how excited they were about the legacy that they were leaving? And about how they were going to be remembered for generations to come? It’s just not happening! People are burdened by the stresses and responsibilities of their life today to even think about living a life of abundance. When you invest in yourself you will be amazed to look back on the abundance you have attracted into your life. In order to do this you need to start to see that there are opportunities everywhere.

When did we decide that we would give up so many of our core values in order to have the material things that give us the appearance of living a happy and fulfilled life? Abundance doesn’t require unlimited physical resources, but rather unlimited resources to have the proper mindset. There is no suitable replacement for abundance when we look at the wealth, health and wisdom areas of our life. People want the best out of life, while not sacrificing their core values and principles. In order to achieve this we must truly understand the concept of abundance.
Abundance isn’t about having more. It’s about coming to terms with what we truly value and realizing that we can in fact create that value if we put our minds and hearts into it.
Do you want to live the life of your dreams, or live a life of limitations? Wayne Allen Root believes if you unlock your own potential you can create the life of your dreams. How does he know? He’s living the American Dream right now! He designs his life by going after what he truly desires, even if that conflicts with what he explicitly asks for. He’s just a blue-collar guy who is just willing to roll up his sleeves and go to work. Every time he hits a brick wall or falls he just gets back up on his feet again. He takes the ball and runs with it. His story is inspirational, just like so many others in Wealth Masters International.
To create an abundance mindset, you need to start appreciating all the goodness that’s right in front of you, some of us have not been able pause and appreciate it until now.
Many think that scarcity in the world is a bad thing, I don’t agree with that mindset. Why? We need to see scarcity in order to grow. Although it’s disturbing to see news stories of war, we appreciate what peace really means. When you see people being treated unfairly you learn to appreciate exactly what is fair. When we see disease we appreciate our own health. The lessons we learn in areas of wealth, health and wisdom are that scarcity is not your teacher, abundance is!
Scarcity is something people perceive. It’s a perception that needs to be altered. Try for a moment to feel the sense of things you are lacking in your life right now. And when you’ve learned the lesson, the key is to withdraw your power from it, and use it to create the abundance you truly desire in life.
Interestingly enough, the more I remember these lessons, the less often scarcity shows up in my life as a personal teacher. I’m able to make better choices with respect to abundance as opposed to making choices on the basis of scarcity. What gives me the greatest feeling of happiness is taking time to appreciate the good things in my life. This had nothing to do with things, and has everything to do with how I am using my own power. So, welcome to the world of unlimited resources!
