Here at the-Coaching Blog-run by Gerard O’Donovan, our aim is to constantly bring value to those seeking to improve their lives. Therefore we have a policy of publishing articles and materials by guest authors whom we value and appreciate. Today’s guest author is Sandra Miniere (USA).
Are you addicted to see what is missing in your life instead of the fullness that already exists? After hearing my inner voice give thanks for my lovely home and wishing it had larger rooms and more storage, I had an epiphany. Suddenly I realized that giving thanks and asking for more at the same time is a habitual pattern with me.
I thought I had overcome a deprivation mentality that began in my childhood, but apparently, it still keeps me in a subtle state of longing. Instead of acknowledging and feeling the fullness of what I have, my mind focuses on something I lack. The principles of the Law of Attraction explain that longing attracts more longing. I now understand how I manifest limited abundance.
Developing an awareness of the abundant creative flow is a challenge in today’s world. Some are dealing with survival needs and others desire something or someone that will make them feel happy or fulfilled. Most of us need help focusing on gratitude and fullness instead of luck.
The process I discovered integrates then transcends the abundance/lack polarity within our minds: We go from a perception of lack (“I do not have what I need to survive.”) to abundance/lack (“I am grateful for what I have and need more.”) to ABUNDANCE (“I HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED RIGHT NOW.”). The final perspective is a gift of grace and creates an unshakable knowing in ABUNDANCE as a spiritual principle within the universe.
Making the mental shift to this “higher” perspective takes awareness, commitment, purposeful action, and grace. As you change your distorted earthly perception of lack, you will see your world through the eyes of the Spirit and attract more fulfillment, harmony, and abundance into your life.
Here are a few strategies that keep your attention on the abundance while living in a reality that challenges this spiritual truth:
As you implement these strategies, you will replace a mindset of “what is missing in your life” with “gratitude for all you have.” The feelings of gratitude will outshine your misperception of luck. You will be able to look right through this illusion into the realm of an abundant creative flow. Abundance has many aspects if you are willing to look. It shows up in your health, relationships, possessions, creativity, work, money, physical surroundings, wisdom, spirituality and more. While struggling in one area of your life, you may have abundance in another.
In a vivid dream many years ago, I observed a dark slowly flowing river in front of me. It had no boundaries and nothing could withstand its power. I knew I had to jump into that river and become one with this universal energy. After observing it for a while, I jumped in and a great PEACE came over me. When I get caught up in “what is missing,” I think about that image and trust that all is flowing in divine right order. This abundant creative energy is freely given by the Creator. I invite you to jump in and experience the truth, peace, and fullness that come from merging with it.
Abundance is your natural state of being!
