The feeling of abundance is a state of mind, abundance expressed is what we call wealth. We all know that the opposite of abundance is scarcity, scarcity is also a state of mind.
Let me explain, have you ever seen people with a lot of money, but still act like they are in scarcity, because they are scared that any little mistake will have them losing all the money they have gotten or have accumulated. Then we have seen people with far lesser but act like they are in abundance because they always believe that the universe will always provide for them. Some people always work so hard no matter how much they make because they think they can work their way to abundance, these people will always work, earn but it will never be enough for them because nothing is never enough. A lot of us are trapped in this state of mind. Some people, having a million dollars is abundance to them, they could earn that, and feel like that is enough to earn the abundance they deserve. If you have $1 Million, then invest it real estate properties and earn about 14% APR from it, that is roughly earning $140,000 yearly from it, this is enough to feel like you are in some sort of abundance. Because, we have a lot of people that earn this yearly and still feel like they are in abundance.

Wealth does not create abundance, abundance creates wealth, because if you want to hustle your way to feel like you are wealthy without being in the abundance state of mind, you will keep working non stop with fear. Because nothing will ever be enough, how much dollar is enough? How much is enough for you to feel like you are wealthy? Some might think its tens of millions of dollars, some might think its hundreds of millions of dollars and some will think its billions of dollars. If you are constantly feeling scarcity no matter how much you make, nothing will ever be enough, because you have that huge scarcity hole mentality. If you hustle based on scarcity, you will always feel scarcity no matter how much you make. Making extra money won’t solve it because the more you make it, the more you get scared of losing it. More money won’t solve your scarcity problem, you just have to look for a way to change your mindset. How can you change your mindset from scarcity and tap more into abundance?
Well, you have to first of all feel safe that the money you have made is abundant enough for you, detach yourself from scarcity and be free from it, only this way will you truly embrace abundance. We see a lot of people who make money, but they are scared to spend this money because they feel that spending their money will take them back to scarcity, no matter how much they make, they still find a reason to save. Some of us will rather keep investing our money than spend it, to the extent that we feel better losing money to an investment than spending it. You would rather invest $500 and lose it than spend the same $500 on yourself. This comes from a scarcity perspective, because we feel spending money means we are in abundance but the fear of scarcity will not make us think so.
