scarcity of the minds

Common people have what it's called "scarcity mentality" in their head. Something that's very deep rooted. So do you believe you have that sort of mentality? Very simple it means we evaluate our lives in terms of what our lives are lacking instead of the opposite way.

I have a relative, who always brag about which rich friend of his, how they live such opulent lifestyle and he's life is nothing compare to them yet he never even knows or aware that he is already staying in a posh storey bungalow houses with 4 cars!! Much better than anyone of us in our family. Every Lunar New year his place will be decorated with exotic fengshui formations which he likes a lot. That's a typical example of extreme scarcity mentality. Yet he is quite well-off. So this does not only apply to poorer people as you can see.

Ahem..so you may think that is a very thing to have in your mind and you wish to get rid this little impish devil off its cozy roots.. just readjust your mindset will do. Give thanks. Truly appreciate life. No matter how challenging it is.

In short, just be very grateful that you have a set of eyes, feet, ears, can walk and run athletically. Also the fact that you are blessed to be here on earth yet another day.

Slowly, it will be uprooted and your mind will be set on abundance.

Simple, right?

Have a great year!
