Doula Business Advisor: Abundance
What is your definition of Abundance?
If you are like most people, the first answer that comes to mind has to do with “more.” More money, more customers, more friends, more love, more recognition. Indeed, in my view, these are all good things. Recently, however, I heard this definition of abundance: “Abundance is a spiritual concept and understanding of the limitlessness of it all. Abundance is present in the universe. It is not a place, it is a process.”
Another speaker provided this metaphor: Take an apple and cut it open. Can you count the number of seeds in the apple? (Answer: of course you can.) Now consider this: Can you count the number of apples in the seed?
More and more lately, I am cultivating abundance in my life, a sense of unlimited possibilities. If we want success in business, we must start with examining our thoughts and beliefs about what is possible.
