英语专业晨读美文-哲理篇 11 Abundance Is a Life

[00:01.40]Abundance Is a Life Style
[00:04.89]Abundance is a life style, a way of living your life.
[00:10.91] It isn't something you buy now and then or pull down from the cupboard,
[00:14.74] dust off and use once or twice, and then return to the cupboard.
[00:18.56]Abundance is a philosophy;
[00:20.97]it appears in your physiology¹, your value system,
[00:24.37]and carries its own set of beliefs.
[00:26.88]You walk with it, sleep with it, bath with it,
[00:30.27]feel with it, and need to maintain and take care of it as well.
[00:34.97]Abundance doesn't always require money.
[00:38.25]Many people live with all that money can buy yet live empty inside.
[00:43.28]Abundance begins inside with some main self-ingredients,
[00:47.44]like love, care, kindness and gentleness, thoughtfulness and compassion².
[00:53.89] Abundance is a state of being.
[00:56.08]It radiates outward.
[00:58.05]It shines like the sun among the many moons in the world.
[01:01.66]Being from the brightness of abundance doesn't allow the darkness to appear
[01:06.03] or being in the path unless a choice to allow it to.
[01:09.53]The true state of abundance doesn't have room
[01:12.04]for lies or games normally played.
[01:14.89]The space is too full of abundance.
[01:17.51]This may be a challenge
[01:18.97]because we still need to shine for others to see.
[01:22.47]Abundance is seeing people for their gifts
[01:25.31]and not what they lack or could be.
[01:27.83] Seeing all things for their gifts and not what they lack.
[01:31.77]Start by knowing what your abundances are,
[01:34.94]fill that space with you,
[01:37.12]and be fully³ present from that state of being.
[01:39.64]Your profession of choice is telling you this already.
[01:43.14] Examples: coaches have an abundance of knowing and possibilities.
[01:47.85] That is their gift.
[01:49.48] Consultants⁴ and customer service professionals have the abundance of success,
[01:53.97]practicality, in common.
[01:56.27] Administrative⁵ assistants and virtual assistants
[01:59.22] have an abundance of coordination⁶ and time management.
[02:03.04] Abundance is all around you, and all within.
[02:06.76] See what it is; love yourself for what it is,
[02:10.59] not what you're missing, or what that can be better.
[02:14.22] But for what is, at this present moment.
[02:17.62]Be in a state of abundance of what you already have.
[02:21.66] I guarantee they are there; it always is buried but there.
[02:26.58] Breathe them in as if they are the air you breathe
[02:29.59]because they are yours.
[02:31.12] Let go of anything that isn't abundant for the time being.
[02:34.61] Name the shoe boxes in your closet with your gifts of abundance;
[02:38.77]pull from them every morning if needed. Know they are there.
[02:43.36]Learning to trust in your own abundance is required.
[02:46.54]When you begin to be within your own space of abundance,
[02:50.36] whatever you need will appear whenever you need it.
[02:53.86]That's just the way the higher powers set this universe up to work.
[02:58.35] Trust the universal energy.
[03:00.87]The knowing of it all will humble⁷ you to its power
[03:04.26] yet let the brightness of you shine everywhere it needs to.
[03:08.63] Just by being from a state of abundance, it is being you.
