“When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous.”
-Wayne Dyer
How do the words above resonate with you?
Pause here and free yourself from distractions:
Take a deep breath in... exhale slowly... deep breath in... exhale slowly... deep breath in... exhale slowly... calm your mind and be present...
How do you define prosperity?
prosperity /noun/
the state of being wealthy and successful.
Prosperity often implies success in terms of wealth, health, and happiness. But it can also be used more broadly. (dictionary.com)
We often associate prosperity and success with money. Think about that for a moment. Iyanla Vanzant's perspective on prosperity really resonated with me:
If you know you will eat even when you don’t have a dime, you are prosperous.
When you can love and give all that you have, you are prosperous.
When you do what you love without pay or reward, you are prosperous.
When you do what you can because you can, not for money only, you are prosperous.
When you love all people for who they are, not for what they can give you, you a wealthy being.
Prosperity is a state of mind.
Prosperity Challenge: How prosperous are you?
By changing your perspective, being present, open, and shifting your mind, you may discover you are more prosperous than you previously realized...
Reread Iyanla Vanzant’s words above as a guide:
Make time to reflect.
Describe a time when you felt prosperous even though you had no money.
Now answer this question:
On a scale of 1-10, how prosperous are you?
Don’t miss your opportunity. Be intentional. Encourage others to do the same and watch what happens.
You got this!
