Scarcity or Abundance Mentality?


Poverty especially of material possession and the means to provide the basic necessities of life continues to be a social problem that is as old as man.

The concept of wealth, abundance and surplus remains an illusion to so many people. Till today we have people asking questions like, ' why are some rich and some poor?'
Could it be a predetermined fate or is there really something responsible for making one wealthy and what exactly is that thing and how can it be gotten or attained?
Is it possible to move from the depth of perpetual lack and insufficiency to abundance and
surplus?


Well to begin with, wealth and poverty begin as concepts that are taught and to which the mind adheres to. If one is exposed to the possibility of being wealthy, that individual's mind picks that information and creates a belief system out of it that eventually determines the actions the person take which will ultimately lead him to wealth and abundance and so also it is for the poor.

Many times in a bid to look rich the poor spends his scarce resources to buy things that make him 'appear' rich simply because these are things they see with the rich and think having those things is what really makes them wealthy. What they fail to understand is that the rich is rich and has those comforts because of a mindset he or she has developed.
A truly rich man doesn't believe in lack and so he sees opportunities for wealth creation where the poor sees nothing but dirt and filth.

A poor mindset hardly sees opportunities, it sees problems all over the place and is usually hopeless. The poverty mindset breeds envy, greed , selfishness, stinginess and the likes because it is fueled by the fear of not ever having enough. Most cases of theft of whatever degree and at whatever level is primarily sponsored by fear of not being able to move out of the poverty lane, the fear of stepping out and taking the risk to build genuine and lasting wealth. It is a coward's approach to becoming rich.

To be wealthy requires that you give up your self limiting mentality, your fear of the unknown, your fear of not having enough. You have what it takes to build lasting and transgenerational wealth, start today.
