quality lifestyle

We are what we think we are. This thought came from our brain and control our state of mind. If you think you will be happy today, then you will be. If you think you will be sad today, then you will be. Everything that happens is controlled by our mind.

Abundant mentality requires us to use our brain to it’s maximum performance. Let’s take for example, one scenario that most of us often encounter.

As a general rule for rich people, they satisfy their self first. They deserve the best and only the best for themselves. They eat the best food, wear the best dress, go to the best place and other things.

But for other people, it’s a different scenario. Out from our monthly salary, we deduct all our obligations first then the remaining amount will be use to satisfy our needs for recreation or leisure. We’re lucky enough if we have something left for us to spend.

When we go to a mall, and see the beautiful dress or beautiful shoes that we want, we will surely be tempted to buy. But since we are on a tight budget, we keep telling to our mind that we don’t have money and we can’t afford it. And that does will really happen. We can never have enough money to afford it.

Our mind will digest this information that we feed to it. Saying the word I can’t and I don’t, it hinders and locks our mind from thinking any possible ways. If you analyze the scenario, it’s like telling your mind shut up and do nothing. That is in contrary to what our mind can do.

Now let’s change our mindset. Instead of saying I don’t have money and I can’t afford it, ask your mind this question: how can I afford it? When your mind receive this input from you, it will do it’s part to think of ways how you can raise the money to afford the things that you want. It could suggest you to cut your daily expenses, think of a business opportunity and look for ways to create money. After all, our mind is made to function that way. You are not just giving your brain a task to think, but you are also improving yourself mentally.

A travel vacation in Europe. How can you afford it?
A nice car you dreamed of having. How can you afford it?
A big house in your hometown. How can you afford it?

Our brain is our greatest asset. It controls everything: the way we talk, the way we behave, the way we react and the way we think. It’s what makes us superior with other mammal. If used properly, it could lead us to success. Otherwise, it could lead us to failure.

Let’s start change our mindset, think abundantly and have positive mental attitude. Always ask ourselves this question whenever we encounter same scenario. Empower ourselves by constant learning and joining worthwhile activities.
