Money can give us the time to appreciate the most important things in life more fully, but not the spirit of innocence and wonder necessary to do so. Money can give us the time to develop our gifts and talents, but not the courage and motivation to do so.
Money can give us the capacity to make a difference in the lives of others, but not the desire to do so. Money can give us the time to develop and nurture our relationships, but not the wisdom and caring necessary to do so.
Abundance is a State of Being
Here are three modest suggestions on ways you can cultivate true abundance in your life.
1. Recognize the inner and outer forces that conspire to make you believe in scarcity and thus to feel lack. Being aware of these factors will help you to overcome their influence over you. Learn ways to release the emotional power of these programmed beliefs and feelings have over you.
2. Foster a spirit of abundance in your life, celebrating the gift of life with joy and thanksgiving. As you focus your thoughts and actions on things that bring a feeling of connection with all life, you move with the flow of the Tao—the Eternal Way. You allow blessings to come to you from the “overflow” of an abundant spirit—not from a place of craving, needing or struggle. To come from lack can only bring lack. When you come from the spirit of abundance, you attract ever greater abundance.
3. Exude prosperity! Become a liberating and empowering force in the lives of those with whom you interact. Help others see—not by preaching, but by example—that we all live in an abundant world and that they as well can free themselves from lack consciousness.
