Life abundance is not by accident.
Do you believe in your life abundance? Or do you deep down think you need to work yourself to the bone in misery, possibly sacrificing health and relationships to gain the success you want?
What if you could be both happy and successful with a daily mind reset, thinking life is abundant?
Life abundance means getting a new tank every day and feeling fulfilled and inspired.
You look forward to getting up because you have a joyful purpose, belief, and hope. You have what you need and you use what you have. What you want changes, and you see that superficial is fleeting. Gaining that wise knowledge is reason to celebrate.
…Or maybe you just need a reminder. We all need reminders.
You can deepen meaning in each day, with your curiosity like the wonder of nature. You’re not disappointed with unmet expectations because you’re grateful for the unique life you have and that lets you accomplish more meaningful things.
If you watch outdoor nature in motion, you can see the abundance of birds. Every animal above and below ground has a role in the desert, forest, waters, and in your front or backyard.
David Attenborough’s Our Planet series shows you glimpses of this in wildlife survival and procreation.
On land, the desert trees are a sign that there’s water below to a thirsty elephant, and vultures above indicate food to land carnivores.
The abundant smaller fish feed the larger fish. Dolphins drive the smaller fish schools to feed the killer whales. Every animal has an enemy and an ally in its deep ocean ecosystem.
And the monkeys and the tigers and all the rest teach their young to hunt, defend, and start their own families. It’s fascinating to watch nature in action!
Like the remade 2019 movie Lion King, there’s a circle of life for every ecosystem. There’s survival and then there’s life abundance.
“Earth laughs in flowers.” –Ralph Waldo Emerson
Never-ending procreation is a sign of the earth’s abundance. In human life, the earthly evidence is in the over 360,000 human births per day!
To keep surviving 365 days a year, the earth has abundant, renewable resources. At the top of the food chain, we humans decide how we use and take care of those resources to survive and thrive.
As individuals, we have a deep well of rich resources built within us if we look from the right perspectives. The wisdom others have learned is infinitely available with helpful tools and media resource guides such as self-help books or King Solomon’s wise written words.
He wrote the 31 Proverbs that perfectly fit in every day of the month.
When we’re younger we think this life is all about us. We can let our pride run our world much like the male lions until they are kicked out of the lion’s pride and left to defend and hunt for themselves.
In vulnerable humility, they’re missing the confidence.
They learn and mature and then can join back into the pride. A lion’s goal is met when they help others in their pride (group).
We’re similarly meant to help others. We also can be missing self-confidence and learn to give ourselves what we lack.
If we live privileged with pride, we can take abundance for granted. It’s a delicate balance.
With whatever life we were given that we didn’t have control over, we have a choice to make the most from where we are. We can seek the truths down to our authentic core.
When we give, we get. When we’re kind and compassionate, the Universe returns us gifts 10-fold. We weren’t perfect but we tried with a pure heart.
When we rise above our egos and the layer of ourselves where we’re missing wholeness and love (holding onto fear and insecurity), then we get to the heart of what this life is about.
We allow ourselves to align with the Universe to use our talents abundantly.
In between and in our learning stages we can power struggle with ourselves. What are our deep-rooted motivations telling us?
When we’re not ready, we could squander the opportunity. We could get in our way and feel like an Imposter.
If we stay in our pain, regrets, and comfort zones, then we can self-sabotage. If instead we take our trials and setbacks to help others, then we bypass the drama in our minds and can be very productive.
I didn’t discover I had a gift of writing to empower others until I was ready. I couldn’t in my 20s because I was still maturing and hurting.
And I couldn’t in my 30s because I was still in a power struggle and a victim mentality. I hadn’t grown up yet and seen the better way on the other side of self-defeat.
Through experience and life’s up and down circumstances, I discovered the more productive way. I wanted to release what was holding me back.
The sooner we get to our productive places, we can start reaping the abundant harvest. Maybe you’re in that place.
If so, be encouraged you can start later and still blossom quickly. The point is to bloom as soon as you know and to look for ways to connects the dots in life (to bloom).
If you live life going the traditional route to your culture, you could miss out on so much more that you could have had. What looks foolish to one person is knowledge to another person.
I would never go back to living on an emotional roller coaster ride and chasing after the wrong things. The worldwide pandemic was a way to show us what’s of the highest importance to us.
When I was 20, I was in college, and I thought I was invincible so no invisible force could have intruded and that could have been tragic thinking. I didn’t know what I didn’t know, and you probably don’t know what you don’t know.
That’s why I pass on this message that your life can be so much more than the fun things you do and the nice things you get. We all want things, but we don’t always know what we really want that’ll make us happy as we didn’t create this life.
Life’s a secret in many ways because it’s not stagnant. You don’t see everything you need in one snapshot, with the naked eye or the original young lens that you were given.
You may not even see the hidden gems with a better prescription from years ago. You see it with new eyes and a fresh mind where life abundance is.
Life Abundance Signs You Could Look Out For:
Clues come from action. When you can reflect, see if what you’re doing checks any of these items…
It’s easy for you. There’s no double-minded confusion. You completed a specific task effortlessly.
It’s fruitful and growing. Your specific action produces and sometimes passively, without your time and energy.
You don’t feel like you’re missing out or that the ‘grass is greener’ on the other side. There’s nothing you’d rather be doing.
You feel grateful. You feel contentment and humility at your core for the situation you’ve been given.
You’re making an impact. Others are noticing your work or service, or you’re getting positive feedback.
You’re too busy looking ahead to look behind you. You’re on a mission and there’s nothing that can stop you. You sense what you’re doing is sustainable or will lead to the next growth stage.
You want to give in your overflow. You have more than what you need so you are generous in time, money, or efforts.
Your health is good and you look healthy. When you have a purpose that you get up for, your mind is happy and your skin radiates in the mind-body connection.
You let go and slow down on worry. Because you know you’re aligned with what you’re doing otherwise another opportunity would show up.
We all have harder days, but the point is to keep growing and stop to smell the roses.
The point is not to be sooo busy, counting what you did, and rushing through. That’s why I don’t have any numbering to the list above. I could stay open and keep adding ideas in our never-ending life abundance.
For today, keep doing what you’re doing until the next door opens and a worthwhile idea unfolds for you to take action on.
And gain more happiness.
