Not just about money

I often talk about success or abundance when I am coaching my students, writing articles for the CREATOR Club website and, of course, in this blog. However, what most people don't realise is that success and abundance don't just mean more money.

In fact you can have an abundant lifestyle with virtually no money in the bank at all.  How? You feel abundant.  In the West nearly all of us have far more than we need to survive and yet we always seem to want something better a new car, a new ipad/console, a new [fill in the blank].

It is my belief that in order to have a truly abundant lifestyle we should seek inner peace and happiness.  If we do this then the material becomes immaterial. True abundance is being genuinely happy and grateful for the things and people that we have in our lives right now.  Going after external objects that we desire in order to make us feel temporarily happy is crazy.  Be happy for who you are and be grateful for the many blessings that you have in your life.   If you attempt to create abundance whilst focusing on the lack of what you want you will fail.  Instead be happy for your old, clapped out car that just about gets you from a to b without breaking down.  Be truly thankful for it and then set the attention of attracting a better one.

As Dr Michael Beckwith (featured in The Secret) says "What we think about and thank about is what will materialise" be thankful, be happy and more blessings will flow towards you.
