Greetings Emerging Conscious Millionaires,
Today’s blog is on the Consciousness of Abundance
Unfortunately, instead of easily making profits and becoming successful, many entrepreneurs remain stuck in a scarcity mindset. This is a mindset of lack—a set of beliefs that there isn’t enough: time, resources, customers, talent, opportunities, or money to go around.
When entrepreneurs buy into these scarcity beliefs, they often begin to struggle, feel frustrated, and start telling themselves they are worthless, that they will never accomplish much with their lives. They may beat themselves up emotionally and feel like giving up. Scarcity thinking can even result in feeling like a victim instead of being in charge of your life and business. Have you ever felt this way?
Business owners who feel trapped in a scarcity outlook sometimes think they must destroy their competition, literally crush them and put them out of business, just to make ends meet and pay bills. At times, they may even violate their own values by resorting to lying or cheating, when they actually desire to be honest and fair with others.
Now, they don’t act in these ways because they are bad people. They are just so afraid they will fail miserably that they act out of desperation.
Worse, when your mind is filled with scarcity thoughts, it’s difficult, if not impossible, to consistently be in your Millionaire Inner Zone. Therefore, rather than moving with the abundant flow of life, your scarcity actions actually result in your moving against it.
And, with that negative reality inside your mind, your own beliefs and inner chatter act against you, rather than in your best interest. Because of what you believe, you literally block yourself from seeing the abundant opportunities all around you!
In fact, one of the most prevalent scarcity thoughts is “wealth is a zero-sum game.” When you think of wealth in this way, you falsely believe that for you to win, someone else must lose. Why? Because you tell yourself there is a finite amount of wealth in the world. So, you have to get “your share” before someone else takes it all! Have you ever found yourself thinking in this way?
Unfortunately, deep down in the recesses of your unconscious mind, I guarantee that beliefs like this are hovering in some dark corner. Why do I say this? Because the prevalent view today is there is a finite amount of wealth so there is never enough to go around. It is imbedded in our cultural mindset.
We are taught in school and business trainings to out-compete other businesses for scarce resources, which includes customers. It’s communicated repeatedly on financial networks. This view is found in business books, magazines, and newspapers. Without even realizing it, you have probably been affected by this way of thinking.
If you want to do a large amount of good in the world and create millionaire wealth so you can enjoy a life of true abundance, then you can not afford to allow scarcity thinking to cripple your chances. You must bring every scarcity thought that is within you into the light of day, examine it, and then discard it as being false!
The first belief you must examine is that the very idea there is a fixed amount of wealth in the world. Why? Because this is at the core of scarcity thinking. If there were actually a fixed amount of wealth, then in a world in which the population is expanding, there would not be enough wealth to go around. However, this belief is one hundred percent false.
Think about this carefully and it will become immediately clear why it is untrue. If there was a fixed amount of wealth in the world, then there would always be the same level of wealth every day, of every week, of every year. It would never vary. However, that doesn’t appear to be the case. The actual total amount of wealth in the world appears dynamic—it’s constantly in flux.
There are periods of economic expansion and periods of economic contraction, or recessions. However, the most important news is that wealth, when viewed over a period of decades and centuries, is always expanding. How does this occur?
The answer is found in how you and I create wealth. We create wealth by adding value to other people, businesses, organizations, and society. In exchange for the value we add, wealth is returned to us, usually in the form of financial payment. And, there is no limit to the amount of wealth that you, I, and the other billions of people on this planet can add to one another. That’s true, isn’t it? Absolutely. This is why wealth is infinitely expansive.
Further, not only is the population expanding over time, far more importantly, the technologies for adding value are also exponentially expanding. Quite literally, every year the methods, means, and avenues for providing value increase. As they grow, more opportunities to create wealth automatically appear. Therefore, the amount of value that we can add collectively is expanding rapidly—and with it, our ability to create wealth.
Wealth results from adding value
to others and receiving value in return!
Ponder these questions for a moment: Is there any limit to the ways your business can leverage your relationships and technology to create wealth? Is there any limit to the ways you can market and sell your products? And, is there any limit to the amount of value your business can provide to others? Absolutely not!
There is absolutely no limit on how much value your business can deliver and therefore how much wealth you can create. There is no limit on how much money you can make as an entrepreneur. The same is true for all the other businesses in the world.
Because you now realize that the old scarcity view of money and wealth is simply inaccurate, you can consciously choose to let go of it – any time you choose. There is infinite abundance in the world, limitless wealth potential, and endless ways you can create wealth by bringing value to others. And, the truth is you can create as much wealth as you desire!
There is absolutely no limit on how much value your business can deliver and therefore how much wealth you can create. There is no limit on how much money you can make as an entrepreneur.
To YOUR Entrepreneur Success,
.
