When we focus on abundance, our life feels adundant;
when we focus on lack, our life feels lacking.
It is purely a matter of focus.
It is true that we can't be in denial about the pain in our life. That is damaging to our physical and emotional health. And just as importantly,
We can't be in denial about the abundance in our life!
Susan Jeffers, Ph.D suggests that we create a "Book of Abundance" for ourselves. Each night before going to sleep, jot down at least 50 wonderful things that happened that day. Notice all the blessings, and abundance in your life. Things like being able to walk, talk, sit, eat, drink, breath, the warmth of the sun, the cool of the breeze, etc. You get the picture.
The items in your Book of Abundance do not have to be splashes of brilliance. In fact, it is better if they are not. Always keep in mind that if we focus on the splashes of brillance, so much of our life will seem drab.......... which it definitely is not!
As you start looking for the good,
your focus automatically is taken off
the bad...........and you feel blessed ( experience abundance).
If you can make noticing abundance a habit, your life will be transformed!
