Prosperity

Prosperity Is a State of Mind
 

Let’s talk about prosperity, because I think most of us have been taught to chase the wrong thing.

We live in a culture that runs on money. Our goals get built around paychecks, property, and our net worth, because that is the language the world speaks at us.

And yes, I know money “matters.” It pays the bills, opens doors, and creates options.

But I would love you to think about this: true prosperity is a state of mind, and you get to decide what it looks like in your own life.

Prosperity: The condition of being successful or thriving. (Merriam – Webster)

Financial author and podcast host Ramit Sethi speaks about living your “Rich Life.” While his concept asks you to imagine a future version of your life and what “Richness” is for you, I want to ask you a different question.

What are you already rich in?

Are you rich in time with your family?
Rich in laughter and joy?
Rich in love?
Rich in health?
Rich in friendships that have stayed with you for years?

When you take an honest inventory of what is already working in your life, you can for a moment stop looking ahead to what could be and get excited about what is. See the abundance that you have already cultivated. WOW!

That is the mental shift from chasing to recognizing. From scarcity or lack to Your Prosperous Life Now.

Prosperity is not a number in an account. It is a way of seeing and experiencing your life. This state of mind is available to anyone. It does not require a raise, an inheritance, or a new car. It only requires that you pay attention to what you already hold.

So this weekend, grab a notebook and write it down. What are you already rich in? I promise you, the list is longer than you think.

And that’s…Good to Know!
