Is There Enough? The One Question That Will Change Everything.

Is There Enough?

Three words that crack open everything.

I've been asking this question lately; not just to myself, but to others. And as people sit with it, something fascinating unfolds.

This question, when honestly explored, takes us on a journey. At first, it seems simple: Do I have enough? But the deeper we go, the more we realize it's not about quantity, it's about clarity.

It starts with noticing where we believe there isn't enough. Where does scarcity still feel real? Where do we think we lack time, money, opportunity, resources, support? What are the stories we tell ourselves about why we can't move forward yet?

But then something shifts. We start examining what we actually have:

  • "Well, I have enough experience..."
  • "I have enough connections..."
  • "I have enough knowledge..."
  • "I have enough creativity..."

Yet, what we have "enough" of and what we lack isn't fixed. It shifts. It changes. It depends.

Further Down the Rabbit Hole

"What if you knew you had unlimited resources?"

The responses are almost always the same.

First, there's the instinctive reaction: "I'd pay off my bills." "Make sure my family is taken care of." "Enjoy life - travel."

Then, something profound happens. A realization dawns. The actual amount of "unlimited" required for those things is negligible.

And right there, staring us in the face, is the next inevitable truth:

"I would give back. I would help change the world."

Here's where the question transforms. It's no longer Is there enough? but rather: Now that I see what I already have, what am I going to do with it?

The Great Unraveling

This is where the illusion begins to show its cracks.

We've been caught in humanity's oldest deception: the illusion of scarcity. It whispers that there isn't enough - not enough time, not enough money, not enough love, not enough of you to go around.

The illusion of "not enough" shapes our entire reality:

  • How we love (carefully, conditionally, holding back)
  • How we create (safely, strategically, playing small)
  • How we live (cautiously, conservatively, constrained)

But scarcity isn't just personal, it's systemic. While much of it is a story, some of it is painfully real. Generational inequality. Resource hoarding. Systems designed to protect the few over the many. These challenges are immense and undeniable.

Yet even within these constraints, history shows us something extraordinary: People who refused to wait for "enough" have changed the world.

  • Mother Teresa didn't start with wealth
  • Martin Luther King Jr. didn't wait for perfect conditions
  • Malala Yousafzai began her revolution with just a pen and her voice

These stories remind us of a truth we often forget: Action is what transforms scarcity, not abundance.

Unmaking What We've Made

Look at how we've constructed this illusion:

  • Money: A symbol we invented, then convinced ourselves was finite
  • Time: A linear measure we imposed on the eternal now
  • Worth: A calculation we apply to the priceless
  • Capacity: A limit we place on our limitless potential

We've been conditioned to believe that security must come first, that we have to accumulate, protect, and strategize before we can give, before we can create, before we can step fully into what is ours to do.

But when you really sit with it, you realize: We've been infinitely resourced this whole time. Every system of scarcity was designed. Every boundary was drawn. Every "not enough" was carefully taught.

And what we've made, we can unmake.

Nature's Blueprint

The natural world shows us a different way:

  • Forests don't charge for oxygen
  • Rivers don't meter their flow
  • The sun doesn't ration its light
  • Seeds don't fear becoming trees

This isn't idealism. This is the original design. The template we emerged from. The truth we covered up with our carefully constructed stories of lack.

And here's the shift: When we stop hoarding our energy in the name of self-preservation and start circulating it into the world, abundance moves. Not because we finally "earned it," but because we finally stopped blocking it.

Breaking Free

So what keeps us in this cage? Fear.

Fear of failure, rejection, loss. Fear that if we step out too boldly, we'll be left with nothing. But here's the irony: How much energy do we waste navigating this fear? How much energy do we burn worrying, controlling, justifying, proving?

What could you create if you simply redirected that energy into doing the thing?

Take a moment to consider:

What's one resource, skill, or gift you've been holding back, waiting for the "perfect time" to share? What's one action you could take right now to move from waiting into doing?

Living in Nature's Paradigm

This is how the great awakening arrives, not through waiting. Not through hoping. But through remembering:

"I already have enough.""I already am enough."

Because when you stop maintaining the illusion of scarcity, everything changes.

  • Instead of hoarding knowledge, you become a channel for wisdom
  • Instead of protecting resources, you become a conduit for abundance
  • Instead of rationing love, you become an expression of the infinite

Your Liberation

So I ask you:

  • What becomes possible when you stop believing in "not enough?"
  • What changes when you break out of the prison of scarcity?
  • What could you create today, right now, if you knew you were already equipped?

Because the truth is this:

You are the abundance. You are the enough. You are what you've been waiting for.

And the world is ready for what only you can bring.

So now I ask you.. #IsThereEnough?

Lets have a conversation and see what we discover together.
