Abundant Thoughts...

I thought I would pass on a few of these sayings that I found or received. They made me stop and think, and it hit the spot about trying to be abundant not just in money but in many other areas of our lives...enjoy!


"The world is full of abundance and opportunity, but far too many people come to the fountain of life with a sieve instead of a tank car... a teaspoon instead of a steam shovel. They expect little and as a result they get little." ~ Ben Sweetland


"Money will come to you when you are doing the right thing."~ Michael Phillips


"What is opportunity, and when does it knock? It never knocks. You can wait a whole lifetime, listening, hoping, and you will hear no knocking. None at all. You are opportunity, and you must knock on the door leading to your destiny. You prepare yourself to recognize opportunity, to pursue and seize opportunity as you develop the strength of your personality, and build a self-image with which you are able to live -- with your self-respect alive and growing."~ Maxwell Maltz


"Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it."~ Lou Holtz


"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."~ Eleanor Roosevelt

Abunding...

Yes I know Abunding is not a verb, but it sounds nice. Okay maybe it doesn't sound nice, but it should be a verb in some way. Maybe it is. I will check. Okay just checked and it is definitely not a verb in any way. The dictionary defines abuncdance as...aww screw that. I really don't like when anyhing begins with the dictionary definition of the very thing they are explaining or trying to disprove so I will just begin.

Hello everyone. My name is Mario and I love this blog. I wish I could have attended a few abundance discussions before posting, but I couldn't resist. In recent months I became aware of several trance mediums that work with entities that offer messages of enlightenment and support to those seeking answers to life's greatest mysteries. One of these mediums named Daryl Anka is able to channel an entity named Bashar who gave an interesting definition of abundance in one of his recent lectures. He defines it like this...

"Abundance is the ability to do what you need to do, when you need to do it."

I enjoyed this definition because of its simplicity. He goes on to say that abundance may come in the form of money, but that this is not the only doorway that is may come through. When one has a definition as money being the only way abundance can enter your life, you close and lock the door to other ways that abundance appears because you refuse to identify or label those things equally as abundance. When you allow all ways for abundance to manifest and be equally valid then the way which is the path of least resistance can come to you whether it be money, gifts, favors, etc. The the path of least resistance flows without restraint because you are allowing it to not have a "speacialness" that singles it ($$$) out in order for that to be the way for it to manifest. He finishes by asking us if we are in fact able to apply the definition to the idea and trust that whatever form of abundance will be alright even if it doesn't come in the form it "ought" to. The more you enjoy the process he states, the faster it will go.

So you see, essentially putting yourself in the here and now and trusting that what is happening is happening as it should is really accessing your higher and much wiser self and it allows for your ultimate expansion in the process.

I just wanted to share that with everyone and hope it sheds some light on all that you have coming to you. After all, you asked for it. Happy Abunding!

OUR DEEPEST FEAR

 

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, talented, fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

We are all meant to shine, as children do.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously
give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

Namaste to you all.

My personal fear of Power

I had no idea until I tapped out (EFT -- www.emofree.com)  my fear of being the most powerful human being that I could be how 'censored' I really was.  I started to feel larger than life. My energy level instantly improved, I am told on a daily basis how beautiful I am by all kinds of people.  They see a new 'sparkle' in my eye. Life is an amazing journey.  I wasn't aware of all of the can't -s that I was telling myself.  I also had NO IDEA what kind of controlling fear-filled existence would disappear.  So much help and collaborations have stepped into my life. Large projects that I would previously have felt trapped under the burden of -- seem relatively easy. My whole existence was to 'do it all alone'.  Who can possibly sustain that? Who would want to sustain that?
When we are young, we depend completely upon our parents or caregivers.  We are very dependent for food, water and shelter. As we grow older, we strive to be independent.  Sometimes, that is the stage we find ourselves for many many years.  The ultimate compliment to another human being is to ask for help.
Interdependence is a maturing of your ego and the humbling of your youthful energies.  The grace to ask for help before it is a horrible crisis is an amazing gift to possess.  I have felt those barriers drop inside myself and
no longer feel driven by an insatiable pride of independence of others. For the first time, I am enjoying an incredible feeling of teamwork.
Thank you for the love you have shown me, thank you for the time you have given me. Thank you for being you.

Hidden Messages in Water

For those of you who haven't heard of Masaru Emoto -- RUN! Don't walk or super click yourself to his website and look at the physical manifestation of our words and our energies.

And of course, if you want to know the most beautiful crystals formed come from "Love and Gratitude".
If you are in a loving and grateful space, your energy forms so clearly and beautifully and any thoughts of poverty, anger, hatred, greed, or jealousy evaporate. What an amazing expression of nature!

Gratitude

Everywhere you read about manifesting the life you want, the first thing they mention is gratitude.
It also seems to be the last thing they mention as well. I would imagine this ingredient is as important as
eggs and flour to make a light fluffy cake.  In an effort to harmonize my direction, I would like to send out messages of gratitude to many different people.

Assorted 'co-incidences' and abundance happenings....

The other members of the group have all experienced some sort of amazing 'touches' as well.
Brandy was told that her project at work has been cancelled. (usually makes one feel very uneasy and out of control)  She realized that she hated her job and wants to work in a 'fun' industry while making money.
She is getting to move by the end of 2009. 

Marilyn received unexpected bonuses and commissions from her real estate work.
Paul who hadn't really generated much income since starting in real estate, had some odd jobs that pulled in $$.
Krishna and her husband found themselves with $1,000 more in one month. Not sure how it happened.
All bills were paid and more money left over.  SWEET!!

Nicole purchased some groceries and was given a bouquet of flowers free. (they were on her posted)

I received a $39.00 check from my insurance company. The amount wasn't as stunning as a rebate for car insurance. I don't remember ever receiving money back from an insurance carrier. I have also been notified that my medical claims from April (I broke my ankle and needed surgery and physical therapy) were underpaid and that I would receive a refund for that.
I got my rebate back on a cell phone,  $199.99 

Scott received $210 in cash when he was very low on funds.  Gotta love the universe. It hates to think of you as hungry. (ha ha ha ha ha ha)
