Abundance is Your Birthright. Yes, You Deserve Prosperity!

In John 10:10 in the Bible, Jesus said, “I have come that you should have life and that you should have it abundantly.”

Notice that He did not say, “live like a pauper settling for whatever crumbs you can find.”

Nor did He say, “Work hard and maybe you’ll get ahead.”

He said that you and I are entitled to live abundantly. That means having more than enough in every area of your life, including finances. We are entitled to an abundance of love, an abundance of happiness, an abundance of health and yes, and an abundance of money.

So why are most people not experiencing this in their lives?

Well that’s a complex question and cannot be answered with a few clever quips, however, there are a couple of things that I have learned in my two decades of studying and teaching success principals.

The biggest error that I see, over and over again, is that most people spend their energy looking at the problem and lamenting about how they can’t afford this and that.

They continue to reinforce their current condition, usually what they do not want, and as a result, of the law of attraction, they continue to experience the same thing. This is an absolute law and cannot work any other way. There’s no “tricking” it or working around it.

If you want to change your current conditions, especially your finances, you must, repeat, must, stop looking at what you do not want.

Yes, ignore reality, as crazy as that may sound, unless of course, your present reality is reflecting your ideal life.

Stop talking about the problem and focus all of your attention and energy on what you do want. If it’s more income that you want, yes it’s natural to want more, look for opportunities.

While the media is busy telling us over and over how bad things are, there is more opportunity then any other time in history. It all depends on your focus.

If you are focused on and looking at problems, nodding your head in agreement with the television, you’ll miss seeing the opportunity — even if it’s right in front of your face.

Here is the way out of the present recession:

1. Decide what you want (sound familiar?)

2. Set a concrete and specific goal. “I intend that I am earning $5,000 extra each and every month.”

3. Spend time each day seeing it as though it already occurred (visualizing).

4. Let go and let God.

5. Ask yourself, what can I do next to move toward my goal, then take whatever inspired action results.
