Abundance and Prosperity

How we construct our perception inevitably becomes our reality. Our attitude and perception are what mold our life situations, thus it is extremely important that we see things in a positive and loving light.

Abundance and prosperity aren't virtues that are achieved through greed and wicked means. Instead, they are earned through consciousness and positivity. By emanating good energy, you are henceforth inviting it back - it is the same concept as the Law of Attraction. This means that giving is ultimately receiving, and to change your life's direction you have to make the conscious effort to do so.

Good decisions are a predecessor to all success. By supporting fair and just resolutions, you are then ensuring that the decisions you make for yourself in all aspects of life, reflect this philosophy. As this wealth of happiness unfolds, it is extremely important to exude gratitude for your fortune. It doesn't have to necessarily be money, but it can be your health, family and friends - things to be extremely grateful for. Taking these blessings for granted can leave you vulnerable to negative thinking. By reassessing your life and what you already have, instead of what you don't, you are able to clearly see your life for what it is.

Once your attitude and perspective reflects the gratitude and respect it truly deserves, you will open yourself up to a more prosperous existence. Money is not the guiding light in life, it is simply a commodity and a means to exist. Treating money as something to hoard or be selfish with, usually ends in disaster. Money, like energy, should flow freely in and out of your life. It is a means of assistance, not a means to an end.

Moreover, treating your money respectfully means taking control of it and carefully allocating it to the places you need it. Instead of frivolously spending your money, try putting it into a savings account. Instead of having money control you, you can be in control and not have to worry about bills or other items that require your attention. Many people believe that abundance and prosperity are simply given to you through large sums of money. This couldn't be more false. The truth is, taking responsibility for your actions, especially when it comes to money, can either leave you comfortable or destitute depending on your perspective.

If you spend your money wisely you will see your abundance grow and grow. Fate can't always do all the work, you do have to meet her half way. Try writing a budget for the week. Be sure to include only necessities and stick to your list. Don't mindlessly spend money just because you can or you absolutely need the object in front of you. Remember, it is just stuff. Using the money you do have on more fulfilling and necessary items will give you a sense of control over what and how you spend.

By structuring our lives around the humble rules of positivity, we are able to control not just our money, but also our path in this world. Life is a long stretch of decisions and sometimes we can make mistakes - nobody is perfect after all. But it is what we do after we've learned the lesson that will take us to our next destination.
