Abundance vs Lack - - Manifest Moments=?ISO-8859-1?B?gQ==?=, Issue 28

As a Happy Holidays reflection, I’ve selected this thought chosen from a person of our times:

“If you look at what you have in life,
You’ll always have more.
If you look at what you don’t have,
You’ll never have enough.”


Can you guess who the author is? I took the quote from a book of a favorite food, health and spiritual author of mine, Dr Susan Smith Jones... but she was not the author of the actual quote.

The author of the quote is a woman who grew up in very hard times, in fact in abusive surroundings. She is a woman who pulled herself up from nothing, to be famous, successful and prosperous - beyond measure, in her own lifetime. She’s helped others see possibilities for their own lives, by searching for her own answers. She is a woman who influences millions in numerous countries through television and her magazine. Can you imagine who this is? By now you’ve probably guessed... it’s Oprah Winfrey.

If Oprah can come from these humble beginnings to where she is today with a philosophy like this, it’s probably something we should all pay attention to.

Here it is again...

“If you look at what you have in life,
You’ll always have more.
If you look at what you don’t have,
You’ll never have enough.”

3 MINUTE ACTION TIP:
I suspect that in 30 seconds or less, you can name 30 things that you are grateful for in terms of family, friends, experiences, accomplishments and possessions. What a great way to start the day after Christmas!

Much love,
Christine
