“Abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.” – Wayne Dyer
“Compassionate Samurai ask, “How can I?” Average people ask, “Can I?” Abundance is the viewpoint that a person’s wholeness and completeness is not dependent on circumstances. It is a spiritual definition based on our connection to God, not a financial definition. Scarcity is the viewpoint that there is not enough and is usually based on the viewpoint we are not enough.” – Brian Klemmer
What jumps out at me this morning is the last sentence that states, “Scarcity is the viewpoint that there is not enough and is usually based on the viewpoint we are not enough.” I know for myself I am working on asking “How can I” accomplish something, what are my possibilities? However I catch myself also still saying “Can I?” Can I really reach this goal, can I really go talk to the CEO about my idea, can I really stand up to my family?” What I realize though is that when I ask myself “can I do (blank)?” the little voice in my head usually pops in and says… “no you can’t… you are not worthy enough.” The words are a false belief I have and it is not true.
Instead of asking “Can I?” and having the little voice pop in my head, I ought to ask myself, “How can I?” what are the possibilities, what is the end result I am looking for? When I ask “How can I?” I create possibilities and take the responsibility for my end result. When I ask “Can I?” I create self doubt and I become a victim.
I like to think that we all have a tool belt we walk through life with. We were given this tool belt when we were born (our strengths, our talents, our mind). As we go through life we are given the choice to expand our tool belt, trade tools, share our tools with others, accumulate an abundant array of tools to walk through life with. When we are faced with the question “How can I?” let’s look at our tool belt and see what our possibilities are and what we can create.
My question for the day is what are the tools you have been equipped with in your tool belt? Use those tools to combat the viewpoint of scarcity.
Have a SUPER day everyone!
Thanks,
