Who doesn’t want to be rich? Even the very rich want to be even richer and those who do not want excessive financial wealth still want an abundance of some other thing in their lives. Be it in finances, health or relationships – abundance and prosperity is what everybody aspires to have.
Being abundant means different things for every person. Let us concentrate on the financial aspect of abundance. Let’s say Tom has always used his bicycle for traveling, business, etc. Finally owning his own car will be extremely significant for him. However, if his friend Dick who has always driven cars heard about John’s windfall, he wouldn’t be too impressed. A personal jet would be what prosperity is to him. And for Harry who owns a couple of planes, maybe an island will be the summit of success.
As illustrated, every person has his own version of what makes a success. It is a deeply personal affair only you can determine for yourself. Many today have gotten discouraged from dreaming and dreaming-never attaining what they aspire to be or have. Do not place the blame on economy or whatever lack you perceive you have. You can choose to be abundant, and it shall be so.
So how do we get this ‘abundance’? Let us understand what it is exactly. What is the meaning of abundance? It is having an overflowing fullness or resources available to you. You will know you have abundance if you have more than what you perceive to be enough.
Imagine taking out a large empty glass and putting it on a table. Abundance is pouring water into the glass it until it spills out onto the table and drips down its sides. It is an overflow of what you allow in your life. You’re probably thinking, ‘What? I want to be rich but leave the eccentric out. How can I allow money to enter my life if I don’t even have it?’
You are absolutely right. You do not have money-not yet. Understand that people acknowledge abundance and prosperity only in its physical manifestation. Not enough people realize that before you see money in your pocket, you have to see it in your mind. Begin thinking abundantly. Ponder on your prosperity long enough to be convinced it will become a certainty in your life. Envision yourself wealthy, and own it.
I have never seen a poor man with a rich mindset remain poor. In fact, look up on some of the world’s billionaires and you will find many climbed up the ladder of success because they had a vision of what they want to be-or more to the point, who they believed they ought to be. If you see this clearly, unclouded by circumstantial factors like education, background and differing opinions; then no one cannot stop overflowing prosperity from pursuing you.
A wise man once said, ‘If you can believe it, it can be done.’ Strong words for some, but it still rings true today. Abundance means peace and freedom- and you can have it today.
