5 Ways to Develop an Abundance Mindset When Everyone Is Saying how horrible the state of the economy is, the Foreclosure crisis is, the credit approval downturn, and the Health Care issues are. Does this sound familiar to you?
With the release of my new book Taking it to the Next Level, I’ve been interviewed by a number of people from television and radio who ask the same question: “What helps you to stay so positive and focused when things seem so “Gloom and Doom”?”
And I asked, “What do you mean, gloom and doom?”
Taking it to the Next Level reveals the 12 hidden steps that the High Achievers of Success have been doing all their life without their knowledge of it’s presence. These people (I call them the Three Percentiles) always seem to find a way to succeed, no matter what the talking heads in the media are predicting and suggesting.
I often ask the media: “Where you aware that during The Great Depression, some people got extremely wealthy. Who do you think named the Great Depression ‘Great’?”
The Three Percentile are constantly looking for opportunities – because they instinctively know that there’s an opportunity to succeed in any economic condition! Here are five ways to have an abundance mindset when everyone is focused on the negative:
1. Focus on people, not things. There are five very important principles that must you must do in order for you to live prosperously. The first and most important is your Ability to associate with people. Why? Because people have all the money! Ironically, when you put the values, needs, and wants of the people first, the money will come as a natural result of the “Law of Wealth”… provided, of course, you follow the other steps.
2. Let go of your up – and down – expectations. Develop the ability to see abundance even in the face of so-called “lack”. The difference lies in your expectations and beliefs. Stop expecting people and things to change. False or misplaced expectations will destroy your success, relationships, – and your chances for true abundance. When you change the way you see something or someone, the person or thing you’re looking at changes.
3. Use AFFORMATIONS. And I know how it’s spelled and it’s absolutely correct. Instead of asking yourself, “Why am I so broke?”, start asking, “Why am I so rich?” These are called empowering questions AFFORMATIONS – NOT affirmations! For example, I’m sure that you’ve tried using an affirmation like, “I am rich.” And your mind says, “Yeah, right!” Instead of making a statement that you don’t believe, ask yourself an Afformation like: “Why am I so rich?” Asking empowering questions will cause your mind to search for why you are, in fact, so rich. That’s why changing the question is extremely important to changing your life.
4. Focus on what you HAVE, not on what you do-not have. Millions suffer from the disease of “lack-of this or that”. This comes from focusing on what you lack, which produces…more feelings of lack. Every morning, begin your day by writing 5 things you’re grateful and appreciative for. Focusing on what you HAVE will build feelings of confidence and self-worth – and what you focus on and are grateful for, more will be given.
5. Find your Purpose. Most people don’t know why they’re here on this planet. This leads to feelings from fear, depression, and anxiety to the depths of despair. It’s only natural that these feelings get amplified when situations look tough. Focusing on what’s wrong is really a bad habit that should be replaced by focusing on what is right. When you Find Your Purpose, you’ll realize that nothing compares to knowing you are doing your best at being the best person you can be.
