Abundance is yours...so take it!

We look at the abundance of life as it shows up as nature and see very clearly that there is an Abundance Principle back of all of life. Look how many acorns one oak tree produces! Take a look at an ear of corn with hundreds of corn kernels on it. Each corn kernel is a seed that can grow a new corn stalk that produces multiple ears of corn! We see the same with a watermelon and its seeds and so on.

The Upanishads is one of the oldest sacred texts of which we are aware. In the Upanishads it is written, "From abundance he took abundance and still abundance remains." To give you an idea of what this means, take a deep breath...as much air as you can fit in your lungs. Now let it out. Now take another deep breath. You can do this all day every day for lifetimes on end and there will always be more air than you can possibly breathe. This one of the best illustrations that I can use to demonstrate the Abundance Principle. This same Abundance Principle applies to ALL PARTS OF LIFE!

We are truly unlimited beings with unlimited resources at hand. You can have whatever you want in life and I KNOW you can do it. You are a powerful, creative, spiritual being! All of the power in the Universe is present at every point including the point of You. You are creative by your very nature. You are clearly spiritual because one day you will lay this body down and the body will be there in its entirety and yet it will not work because You will not be there. You can have the exact life that you want!

This formula explains the process: Thoughts=>Feelings=>Actions=>Results. When you choose a thought (and you absolutely do choose your thoughts), that thought causes you to feel a certain way. Those feelings cause you choose to take action (generally positive) or to not take action (generally negative). If action is taken, the direction of that action is based on the originating thought. Action taken causes the effect of results showing up in your life. This formula works based on Law.

You use this formula every single moment of every single day. Everyone does. The thing is that most folks are completely unaware that this is the creative process and they are unaware of their use of it. They are unconscious creators. Be a conscious creator! Use this tried and true, irrevocable, indisputable process to have the life you choose for yourself. It all starts with your thoughts.

Try this:

Wake up 10 minutes early tomorrow morning. Now I love to sleep and getting up 10 minutes earlier than usual honestly didn't sound very appealing to me when my teacher first suggested that I do this activity. So the next morning when the alarm went off a little earlier than normal, I turned it off and asked myself this question, "Am I willing to give up 10 minutes of sleep to change my life?" Because remember that you are growing. Growing always includes letting go of something. This gives you space to grow into the life you want. That day, I chose to let go of that extra 10 minutes of sleep and my life was changed forever.

Now once you're awake, grab a pen and paper and sit in an area where you can write comfortably. Then start at the top of the page with these words, "I am so happy and grateful now that...". Then finish the sentence and fill up that page with a description of what you want your life to look like. Remember to keep it in the present tense and to feel the feelings that are in alignment with the words describing you already living the life of your dreams. Do this activity every day...even on weekends.

Practice this activity to start and I'll give you a next step in my next post. Remember to feel it! Close your eyes every so often and see your life just as you have written it. Have fun with it!
