Do You Think You Are Wealthy?

Most people are kept in a state of fear, jealousy, competition, comparison, complaining, and disillusionment. This leaves you open to be easily manipulated and controlled. You are convinced that you need money in order to have worth. This belief will indeed keep you poor. The wealth that we are speaking about is the wealth that comes from being a sovereign and free spirit and in alignment with the true knowing of who we are. Mayann Hasna

What is your definition of wealthy? 
My eyes were opened over the past few days spent in Ecuador. The culture of community and sharing really brought me back to thinking what I value. Don't get me wrong, money is important and I love it, it allows me the opportunity to live a life with less stress. I immediately started paying attention to both my conversations and the people around me. What I learned that we stop, we limit, we deny ourselves because "there is no money" or "I'm broke" or 'it's too expensive" or " only people with money do those things", I can go on
What I paid attention to is how the abscence of money did not deter the community for doing their thing, they have a belief that money is part of the puzzle and although it may not be visible yet, it will come once there is a start on the project.
Such a telling reminder for me
Start
The Universe is abundant
A way will be made out of no way
There is usually no requirement to start big, we can start small and grow along the way
Words have power- eliminate
"I'm broke"
"I cannot afford it" 
"I have no money" 
"If I get any money I will...."
Rephrase these terms, it empowers you to move
Give it a go and let me know how it works out
In the meantime, know that the Universe is abundant and words have power
Peace

What is being of service? Looking upon another human being with kindness and compassion and not judgement is a profound act of service and though such a form of service lacks for whistles and bells, this expression of “service” comes from truly understanding the power of your soul and what it means to “look upon another with eyes of grace.” Carolyn Myss 1.

What Does Support Look Like to You?

Image
  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe

Sensible Optimism

Image
  Optimism is usually defined as a belief that things will go well. But that's incomplete. Sensible optimism is a belief that the odds are in your favor, and over time things will balance out to a good outcome even if what happens in between is filled with misery. And in fact you  know  it will be filled with misery. You can be optimistic that the long-term growth trajectory is up and to the right, but equally sure that the road between now and then is filled with landmines, and always will be. Those two things are not mutually exclusive." Who told us that all the roads on the Journey of life will be smooth and bump free? And even if you knew or remember who told you, why did you believe it given what you know? What if the blessing, what if the growth, what if the joy is found on the rocky bumpy road? What if? And if it is, we can rest easier that the bumps and rocky roads are designed with us in mind, designed for us to grow, to learn, to live a life that is filled with varie
