Celebrating 2023: A Month of Gratitude – Day 3

Abundance is a mindset that attracts everything you need and desire to you. This is a lesson that I am very grateful to have learned this year.

2023 has been a year of abundance. I would like to believe that it is because I made a greater effort to nip the scarcity mindset I have had all my life and started believing that I will always have more than enough and that I deserve, and am worthy of, the best of everything I desire.

I only realised last year that I had never believe this about myself. It is not easy to change such a long held belief but it is not impossible either and I have only just begun. Imagine what lies before me!

This year, I was finally appointed to the role that I have wanted for years! I am so thrilled and very grateful. I won a competition through my bank that basically covered my petrol bill for the second half of the year. How’s that for the Universe having my back! I received the biggest bonus I have ever received this year! I believe that this was God ensuring that I would make through this year with a lot less financial stress than I have been experiencing.

These are just a few examples of all the unexpected financial help I have received this year. I believe that because I believed that I would have more than enough, I opened the door for God/Universe to deliver to that belief. May I never forget this awesome lesson that I learned this year. Thank you God!

Celebrating 2023: A Month of Gratitude – Day 1

Gratitude is like food for the soul. I am celebrating 2023 by spending each day in December reflecting on and, being grateful for, my blessings this year. Join me. Perhaps you will be inspired to do the same.

Wow, here we are again. Day 1 of the final month of the year. I have so much to reflect on and lots to be grateful for.

2023 has been a journey like no other. A few dreams have come true. Some are on their way there. The losses have been learnings and the near misses have been eye openers. I mean where do I even begin?

Let’s start at the beginning. Reaching 50 has been a wonderful blessing. I said that my 50’s are going to be my best decade yet at the beginning of this year and it has definitely started well! I feel like this year I really came into myself. I still have lots of work to do but I have never been as comfortable in my own skin or as happy to be as I have been this year.

The reality is that not much has changed materially in my world but I have changed and that has made all the difference.

Wishing you abundant blessings in every moment.

What’s a lie you tell yourself?

Bloganuary Day 23

Today’s prompt: What’s a lie you tell youself?

Hmmm…if I knew it was a lie, would I still be telling it to myself? I think it’s fair to say that just about every day I work on uncovering what lies I have been telling myself because it’s what we humans do to ourselves. I would like to believe as I write this though that there are none that I am consciously aware of at this time.

Now if you asked me what one of the worst and biggest lies I have ever told myself was, I would tell you that it was the lie that I was not worthy of all the good things that life has to offer all the time. I always assumed that if something good happened to me that it was by pure luck and not because I was worthy. I have an inkling of where that belief probably came from but it doesn’t matter anymore. What matters is that I am aware of it and I am actively working on unlearning that load of hogwash and learning and accepting how worthy I truly am of all the great and wonderful things that God has given me and that He still has planned for me.

What lie are you unlearning and what is the postive message you are replacing it with?

Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world.
