5 Ways To Live An Abundant Life

What if we lived as if there was enough?

Enough time.

Enough money.

Enough opportunity.

Enough potential.

Enough healing.

Enough creativity.

Enough space.

What if we started living from our abundance, instead of our lack? The world is covered by fear and a sense of scarcity. Contentment with what we have is the key to an abundant life.

Many people dream of living an abundant life but fail to take actions that would lead to it. A lot of people want a lot of money, but keep spending on unnecessary things. Other people would like to have an abundant business but are afraid to keep showing up in the market. Many people want good health, but continue practicing unhealthy lifestyle habits. How ironic life is.

Many people focus on what is missing and carry that feeling throughout their lives, living in a mindset of scarcity.

Here are some ways you can practice the awareness of abundance in your lives.

1. Slow down.

The world is hectic, fast-paced, and full of rush. Yet, you still crave stillness. It's what you've forgotten amid the busyness of your lives. Stopping, slowing down, or even focusing on one thing at a time allows you to see things more clearly. From a point of contentment rather than striving, you can find joy.

2. Choose gratitude.

Happy moments are fleeting, and circumstances are always changing. Striving for perfection can keep you from experiencing fulfillment, it keeps you in the carrot of happiness constantly in front of you. Use gratitude to gain perspective. It empowers you because your response to situations is measured, rather than dictated to.

3. Water your own grass.

If you keep your attention on your own landscape instead of constantly looking at those around you, you'll see that your lack stems from distorted perceptions of one another's reality.?You see others succeed and believe there isn't enough for everyone. But that's a lie. Everyone is fighting their own battle—they all look different. When you reflect on the gifts you’ve been given, you’ll be able to see there is enough for you no matter what you think you lack right now.

4. Reframe your perspective.

When you are facing obstacles, limitations, and circumstances, it’s so easy to feel powerless and do nothing.?When you recognize your deepest pain as gifts in disguise, you will then see your deepest gifts in place of obstacles, limitations, and resentments. You don’t have to have everything. Start with being grateful for what is already present and take that feeling into the next moment.

5. Say no to numbing.

It's okay to binge-watch Netflix or scroll through social media from time to time. Sometimes you just need to take a step back and unwind. Life can be hard, and some days just call for comfort. Yet too often you can fall into a pattern of numbing that does not serve you. The world needs you. Start developing a vision for your life in alignment with your gifts, act on it and most of all, enjoy it. When you notice yourself numbing, stop it. Feel your feelings – sit in them, investigate them, but don't live there. Get pulled by the vision for your life.

When you wake up every morning, choose to believe that there is enough, that you have everything within you to make it happen and that’s how you live a life in abundance.

Gratitude and contentment are key to accessing a mindset of abundance.

Always grateful for your presence and your kindness!
