Spirituality is both a universal and highly personal experience. While most of us have at some point felt a meaningful connection to something bigger than ourselves, the way that we experience this connection depends on many factors, including our personal experiences, communities, and culture. to read article in its entirety

 Abundance can arrive in the form of friendships, wisdom, money, creative expression, good health, loving relationships, mental energy and enthusiasm, peace of mind, and in infinite other ways. But however wealth manifests, the point is that these effects are the spontaneous outgrowths of inner spiritual awakening; they are not sought after for their own sake. Money, achievements, accolades – all of these are byproducts of life’s true gift: the unfolding of your inner divinity Deepak Chopra

from Revolutioniz.com regarding abundance and scarcity.
….your experience is determined by your state of being, true ‘abundance’ is something you can only attain by taking on a true ‘abundance mentality’.

• • In abundance, you’re “driven by incentive”;
  •  In scarcity, you’re “driven by threat”.
  •  In abundance, you’re “motivated by genuine joy”;
  •  In scarcity, you’re “motivated by pain”.
  •  In abundance, you’re predominantly “proactive”;
  •  In scarcity, you’re predominantly “reactive”.
  •  In abundance, you’re “playing for genuine love and enjoyment of the game”;
  •  In scarcity, you’re “playing not to lose” or “playing in compulsive pursuit of winning/victory”.
  •  In abundance, your state of being allows you to “be pulled towards what you want” and to “pull what you want into your orbit”;
  •  In scarcity, your focus is on (subtly or blatantly) “pushing yourself away from what you don’t want”.
  •  In abundance, you “playfully request”;
  •  In scarcity, you “complain”.

 

•  To elaborate: Requesting clearly what you want out of a playful desire (i.e. no underlying needs to make up for something ) is entirely different from complaining (even ‘subtly’ and ‘implicitly’)… Complaining is essentially to ‘blame’, ‘find fault’, ‘kvetch’, and so on with regard to what you don’t want… without even clearly stating what you do really want instead

•  In abundance, you “attract”;

•  In scarcity, you try to “seduce”.

•  To elaborate: ‘Attraction’ has a natural power to it… whereas ‘seduction’ has a more manipulative force to it…

•  Attraction ultimately leads you to feeling bigger, more complete, more integrated, more connected, more abundant. Conversely, a more manipulative, ‘seduction’ mentality ultimately makes you regretful, poorer, and made up of conflicting pieces.

•  Attraction is about substance, whereas seduction is about surface. The first is about joy and elation… followed by fulfillment. The other is about rush, manipulation, and thrill… followed by emptiness.

• 5 Steps to More Abundance in Life

•  People who orient themselves toward what they want, focus on the possibilities and visions they have for their lives. That’s what energizes them. They’re not stuck on any imbalances that dominated their past. Instead, they embody the state of mind of focusing on what would really bring them genuine joy and fulfillment. ‘Lack’ and ‘scarcity’ aren’t part of their paradigm, and so they don’t worry about it. It just doesn’t cross their mind. _{from Revolutioniz.com}

• *xpect your every need to be met. Expect the answer to every problem, Expect abundance on every level… _{Eileen Caddy}

The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he’s always doing both.” _{[]L. P. Jacks (Lawrence Pearsall Jacks, 1860-1955)}

Article -Spiritually Abundant-Spiritually abundant is feeling an abundance of everything. You notice it, you see it, you
touch it, you breath it in and you experience it. But, the burning question is, how do I feel abundant if I’m not experiencing abundance?”:http://www.destinies.com/en/data/files/download/pdf/Spiritually_Abundant.pdf

VALUES Affirmations

Values are deeply held beliefs which we hold as desirable ideals. Our values are constantly changing and rearranging as we go through the different stages of our life. For this reason, it is important that we review them regularly to ensure that our current goals and purpose reflect the values that are most important to us at any given time.

Being clear on our core values ensures that we maintain a meaningful balance in all areas of our life. When there is imbalance between our goals and our values, lack of motivation may result. The only cure for this is to redefine the goal in terms of our values.

Our values also define that person we wish to become. If we do not understand and acknowledge our underlying values, the changes we attempt in life may lead to disappointment and confusion.
