9 Days to Christmas: Sense of Humour
By now, you might be on your way to the family. Be very sure that the first thing you pack is your sense of humour.
We often focus on what we desire and what has not materialized in our lives, and then hold the belief that we are lacking. We spend our days wanting this and that, never stopping for a second to appreciate how abundant our lives already are.
It's true that the house, the new job, the new client haven't happened yet, but is that all your life is about? Surely, you have achieved many other things that you once desired, and they are now part of your life. It's easy to forget that there was a time when you longed for them. When we constantly focus on what's lacking, we must work twice as hard to overcome the resistance.
When we learn to focus on the abundance already in our lives, our perspective shifts and we can allow life to flow. We become open to opportunities presenting themselves, and we begin to see solutions rather than problems.
Are you ready to acknowledge daily the abundance you already have, to allow for opportunities to present themselves, and to see solutions?
