The Abundance Mindset that Changed My Life

In today's short message, I want to talk to you about abundance.

I'm going to be sharing what abundance really means because this is a word we can often get tied up with money.

We think that abundance is simply financial.

But that's not the case. And I've noticed this throughout my life many, many times.

The more that we can understand that abundance is actually something that exists in many different areas of our life, and is actually always there in some way, shape, or form… then we can start to change our perspective around abundance and actually have more willingness to receive the abundance that we desire and need in our life to support us on our journey.

This will be short and sweet, but I want to share a really potent message with you... starting with a story.

A Moment That Woke Me Up

There was a time in my life where I was struggling financially. Bills were piling up, stress was at it's highest, wondering if I could afford groceries this week.

I started to get pulled down, thinking:

“Wow, I'm doing all this internal work. I'm transforming in these different ways… yet my financial abundance is not showing or reflecting back to me in my world. What is going on?”

I was getting so hung up on the lack of financial abundance in my life... it made me question if even understood what abundance was.

So I sat with that.

I was having a moment of speaking with God, with the universe, with Source.

Just having a conversation and asking:

• What is abundance?
• Am I seeing it wrong?
• Is my perspective limited here?
• What do I need to learn in this moment?

Abundance Was Already There… I Just Wasn’t Looking

When I asked these questions, with patience I eventually got answers.

I realized I had been supported in so many different ways.

Abundance was all around me... I was just choosing not to look at it because it didn't fit my "preferences"

My preferences for abundance were getting in the way.

This happens often in our lives.

I realized people were reaching out. People were calling me. People were checking in.

There was so much abundance all around me:

• an abundance of support
• an abundance of resources
• an abundance of time

I hadn’t even noticed the abundance of time I had.

Instead of panicking about money all the time, I could’ve relaxed and let ideas come to me.

When I relaxed and leaned into trust... I had an abundance of ideas.

And then I had an abundance of time to execute on those ideas.

And eventually, I was able to increase my financial abundance by implementing those ideas.

It was a blessing, something I wasn’t seeing for such a long time because my preferences for how I thought life "should be" were getting in the way.

Abundance Is Everywhere

Once I zoomed out, I could see all the areas where I was supported.

Take a walk in the park or in nature... abundance everywhere.

Every blade of grass. Every leaf. Every tree.

If you went to the beach to try to count the grains of sand, you couldn’t.

It’s beyond you.

As I sat with this deeper, I meditated and felt myself being a part of all of that.

Sometimes the most helpful thing we can do is just get out of our head, out of the computer, out of the phone… and reconnect with the abundance that’s around us all the time.

It shifts our perspective on what abundance really means and how much of it there really is.

The Mind Loves a Victim Story

It’s usually just the mind freaking out about how things “should” be.

If we can take a breath and drop that… we can see abundance everywhere.

And this is why gratitude is so powerful. Gratitude brings us back to:

• a roof over our head
• food in the fridge
• clients
• time
• clothing
• friends
• support
• options

An abundance of options might be one of the most powerful ones.

Because even when the money isn’t flowing the way we want, there are endless paths, endless possibilities, endless directions we can go.

The options are always there. We just get stuck in our own head and don't see the opportunities right in-front of us.

The Real Shift

Even today, I have to catch my mind. Zoom out.

My ego wanting to say:

“Poor me… I wish things were better…”

But if I get to choose my perspective, why would I choose that one?

Sometimes the lesson is simply to recognize that abundance is all around us.

That recognition shifts the situation we want to shift.

When we let go, not out of weakness, not out of giving up... but by releasing the resistance against how we think life should be… we finally see the options that were right beside us the whole time.

The options are always there. Sometimes we just have to allow ourselves to see them.
