Abundance vs Letting Go
June 13, 2008
Abundance – surely it is the accumulation of wealth whether materially, physically or emotionally. All through the ages, man has been pursuing the accumulation of riches. But before we go into building up mode, it is necessary that we see if what we have accumulated is enabling, empowering or do they drain and dis empower us from reaching our full potential emotionally and physically.
Much has been gathered through the years that builds up and clutters the space; it is getting a little suffocating and messy. We need to seriously ask ourselves how are these serving us? Do I like my present state? Am I living the life I want to live? Is this the abundance I seek?
Do we come short of abundance because there are blockages and barriers draining us of our energies and lives? Those stuff that I am keeping and guarding and hoarding, are they serving me or will I be better off letting them go!? Why am I clinging onto them?
So before we go in search of and build riches and prosperity, we need to take stock, look inside ourselves and see if there is baggage that needs ridding off, clutters that need to be cleared first. What are the emotional attachments that we are hanging onto? What good does it serve to hang onto these? Will we let go and bid farewell to the past so we can open our arms to welcome the future?
Abundance is simplicity, clarity, focus and freedom.
Opening Up to Abundance!
June 10, 2008
Where are we today with regards to Abundance? Am I satisfied with where I am? Do I envy those who have Abundance? How is it that some seem to have much Abundance while other just can’t seem to get it?
I have heard this before but today I begin to catch a new understanding. Abundance is here, it is around me, and for some unknown reason I have chosen to shut Abundance out of my life! God forbid! But that is what I had done. I had not let Abundance come in!
Think of all the doors that I have closed on people I don’t agree with or understand; I have shut them out of my life. And all the thoughts which I would not entertain because they don’t seem to make logical sense; I have chosen to stay exactly where I am in my thinking pattern without opening up to consider new perspectives. Abundance is waiting and wanting to come in and I in my own narrow-mided obstinacy am keeping it firmly out by shutting the door tight and not allowing it in!
“You create the life you want” – these are powerful words yet there is much truth in it. As I allow myself to open up the door that I have shut for years to the people that matter the most to me, love and peace and joy flood in. In fact I even had a little Divine help from above in the form of written text confirming to me that opening up to peace is one sure way to Abundance.
Have we shut Abundance out of our lives? Is there stuck or stale energy somewhere? Open up and let it flow! Open up and let the light come in, together with the ventilation and the fresh air. Abundance is waiting to come in, will we let go of the old and the stale and open up to the new and the fresh?
Abundance or Self Limiting?
June 9, 2008
Have you ever tried sharing some new insights or experiences with others and got the answer “I already know that” before you can continue sharing? And if you try to explain what it was that really excites you and you are dying to share the message so others will also benefit from it, you will get another “I know that!” only this time more emphatically. “I know that long before you were even aware of this …..”.
Is that abundance of knowledge or is that limiting ourselves to the knowledge we already know? Do we know everything in all areas all the times? Do we realise that we sometimes close the door of learning and opportunities upon ourselves? Do we really know what others were going to share? Will there not be new perspectives and insights from others’ experience that we can learn from? Will there not be unique angles from others’ perspectives? Does it occur to us that the world is constantly changing, evolving and things that we know may be phasing out? Or that there are always another level to what we already know?
Self limiting thoughts has taken on another look. It is not only present in those who lacks confidence and those who second guess themselves. Self limiting thoughts have hit all of us who think we are the learned and who think “I already know that”. Those words has prevented us from learning new lessons and reaching new potentials, flying far and wide. To the learned and know-it-all, here’s a quote we can consider together.
“In times of change, learners inherit the Earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists”. — Eric Hoffer
