- 0:29Good morning from the Chicken Coop.
- 0:31So today we're talking about having an abundance mindset and
- 0:37first things first, I want to say, if you have never worked on
- 0:41having an abundance mindset before.
- 0:43Well, welcome to the world of good morning from the chicken
- 0:46coop because we're going to be doing a lot of that this year.
- 0:48And the first thing that I want to kind of introduce everybody
- 0:53to this with is having an abundance mindset, does not mean
- 0:57that you don't run into challenges with yourself and
- 0:59that you have To essentially argue with yourself, in your
- 1:03state of fear. I mean, I can't stress enough
- 1:06and I know I've said this multiple times for anyone who's
- 1:08listened before that are Intention as human beings is to
- 1:15always grow and be better. I really do believe that and
- 1:19sometimes we run into fear, sometimes we have issues where,
- 1:24you know, anxiety shows up. That is normal, that is human.
- 1:27And you are not broken and you should not be chastised for it.
- 1:30You should not be picked on for it.
- 1:32You should be acknowledged for the fact that you recognize that
- 1:36those emotions are trying to help you.
- 1:37Maybe they're trying to communicate that you should get
- 1:40out of what you're doing. Whether it's a relationship or a
- 1:43job, or whatever it might be, it's emotions come because
- 1:48they're trying to give us growth and an abundance mindset.
- 1:51Building, an abundance mindset is really a part of that is
- 1:57recognizing when those other emotions show up that you have
- 2:00fear that you have those things and you have to work on them to
- 2:02move past them. So I want to let you know first
- 2:07of all as you go into this new year.
- 2:10It's okay to be scared. It's okay to be uncomfortable,
- 2:13it's okay to be nervous, it's just not.
- 2:16Okay to stay there. It's, it's the reason why you
- 2:20want to shift so that you can get to a higher ground of
- 2:24abundance mindset and thinking the that you have to do that
- 2:29without fear is ridiculous. Anyone who tells you you have to
- 2:32live, Fearless is full of shit and lying to you, sorry.
- 2:35To be bold about it and say it but it is, you cannot ditch that
- 2:39part of the world. So the second piece is, when you
- 2:43go into it, are you going to have to challenge yourself to
- 2:46think abundantly over and over again?
- 2:48Yes, absolutely. It doesn't it's not something
- 2:50that we as human beings do regularly very well and we have
- 2:54to teach ourselves to keep doing it.
- 2:55We have to work on it. We have to put ourselves into a
- 2:58position where we work on it, and we have to know that it's,
- 3:03it's a growth mindset. It's something you have to
- 3:07cultivate and it doesn't just happen overnight.
- 3:10A'ight. So our whole lives, we spend
- 3:13time our whole lives, having these these thoughts about about
- 3:19whether we should do something or not do something, we get all
- 3:21these opinions of other people and we have all this stuff that
- 3:24triggers us and guess. I mean, quite honestly, it a lot
- 3:28of it comes down to the fact that, you know, what we've been
- 3:31having been surrounded by people who have abundance mindset.
- 3:34So then we don't have abundance mindset and we follow that which
- 3:37other people have given us, you know, the one of the very first
- 3:40Podcast that I talked about. When I first started, this was
- 3:44the thoughts we borrow from other people, and abundance is a
- 3:47big thing that gets borrowed from other people.
- 3:50If you lived with someone who lived in scarcity, you start
- 3:53off, you know, recognizing scarcity immediately and you
- 3:57will live in scarcity. It's really important to make
- 4:00sure that you understand those thoughts that you have borrowed
- 4:05from other. People are not the ones that you
- 4:07want to keep. And you have to really Ali.
- 4:10Look at yourself repeatedly. This has to become a process of
- 4:14cultivation. It has to become a process of
- 4:17and willingness to look at it over and over and over and say,
- 4:22well, is this a choice of, you know, abundance or is this a
- 4:24choice of scarcity? Is this something I want to
- 4:26focus on? Is this something that I want to
- 4:28cultivate? Is this something I want to let
- 4:30go of, is a serving me? Or is it not serving me and by
- 4:33asking questions about these feelings and emotions, and
- 4:37thoughts? You start to recognize that?
- 4:40Even me I don't even believe that, that's not something that
- 4:44I want to take with me. That's not something I want to
- 4:46have. I don't even know where that
- 4:48came from and I've had to do a lot of that work myself because
- 4:53I had a mother who did not live in abundance and I had a father
- 4:56who did live in abundance to a point and he always had a cap on
- 5:02it, where it's like, oh no, we're good.
- 5:04But we never got two great and my mother always lived in this
- 5:09place of like, oh Oh, you know Debbie Downer where she was
- 5:14afraid of losing things. So I think abundance is
- 5:19something that I personally cultivate every single day.
- 5:23I think when you put that into your world and you start working
- 5:26on it, it changes everything like right down to a known.
- 5:30This is a silly example. But you know, in the winter
- 5:32chickens, stop laying eggs. Everyone talks about how
- 5:35chickens lay fewer eggs in the winter and how they are not as
- 5:39you know on And blah, blah blah. Well, not mine.
- 5:44I have an abundance mindset with them and right now, I'm getting
- 5:46over two dozen eggs a day and everyone says, you can't
- 5:51cultivate adding new chickens into a group that's already
- 5:54fixed. Well, I just did that and fold
- 5:55it in girls that I got from a friend and I didn't have a
- 5:59problem at all. So I don't believe in
- 6:02limitations like that. I believe in keeping my focus on
- 6:05the abundance. Do I have the limiting thoughts?
- 6:07Yes. Do I keep them know and that's
- 6:09what it's all about. Out.
- 6:10So, I want you to really think about this.
- 6:13Think abundantly have the thoughts of abundance, start to
- 6:16feel like, do you even recognize what abundant thoughts are?
- 6:20And we will dive more into this as we go into the year.
- 6:24All right, my friends. I hope you have a blessed day
- 6:26and I will see you tomorrow. Bye.
