Abundance encompasses much more than money. Abundance comes in many forms: good health, joy, friends, loving family members, a puppy's kiss, anything that brings joy and a sense of peace and well-being.
Everyone has the ability to manifest anything they choose to obtain or experience. What often happens is that gifts are not accepted when presented or go unrecognized even when they are laid at the doorstep.
Many people complain about their need for money, more time or energy, specific items, etc. Yet, when someone offers their services, because of pride, gifts are rejected with comments such as, "Thank you, but we are doing okay. We appreciate the thought, but we know you (or someone else) need the money as much as we do." Perhaps you accept the gift, only to pass it on to someone you think is more deserving.
This behavior is often a reflection coming from a lack of worthiness. Have you ever failed to charge a fair price for your services? How often have you worked jobs that did not bring you joy? How many times have you lent money knowing you would never be repaid? Where is your worth and sense of fairness?
All humans desire abundance on some level. This doesn't necessarily mean material goods, for there are many who prefer a simplistic lifestyle. However, all desire an abundance of peace, the ability to choose what they wish to experience and the people they wish to have as their friends.
Take time to look at your belief codes. Why do you follow the practices that you do? Are you hindering your growth and ability to manifest what you desire due to following beliefs others have impressed on you? Scrutinize each tenet you hold dear to determine if it still holds true for you today. Dare to be different.
If it is abundance you wish to receive, you can also expect to be presented with a myriad of ways to expend your wealth, as well. That is the nature of this world of polarity. It is up to you to use discernment regarding when to receive the blessings gifted to you and when to pass the gift onward.
Pay attention to your words and attitude when blessings come your way. If you turn down a gift, look closely at why you are doing so. Is it a result of an old habit? Perhaps in the past, gifts from certain people had "strings attached" and so, you hold the belief code that gifts from people have "strings attached."
Look closely, be as objective as possible and bring to your conscious mind belief codes that hinder you from living a life of abundance. You cannot eradicate old belief codes until you shine a light on them. Consciously choose those you wish to keep and those you are ready to release.
You have the right to live a life of abundance. The Law of Attraction states that what you focus your attention on, you will attract to you. Once you realize this and choose to take the steps towards living an abundant life, celebrate by performing a jig called "a bun dance." Stand up, shake your booty and with joy and exuberance shout, "I am worthy to receive all the blessings the universe has to offer me!"
