A scarcity mindset is thinking or feeling that there isn’t enough to go around and that you’re not worthy of success, wealth, health, love or anything positive in your life. We’re taught that wanting something is “bad” but this isn’t a conversation about manifesting these things into existence. An abundance mindset is about cultivating an outlook of openness to opportunities in life. In turn this can be so beneficial for your self-worth and gratitude towards what abundance is already in your life.

In the same way that we talk about everyone’s version of success being different. Everyone’s view of wealth and abundance is different – money is not the only metric of wealth, you can also have a wealth of love, health, warmth, laughter, friendship etc. Cultivating abundance is acknowledging that you’re worthy and deserve those things.

Protecting your energy sounds like a bit of a ‘woo’ topic but we’ve all experienced those people who you spend time with and feel drained afterwards, so this week we’re discussing our own responsibilities to recognise and counteract that. You can’t always cut negative people from your life, but you can take steps to distance yourself from those people, whether that’s moving away from colleagues at work who are always angry or negative, or consciously preparing for spending time with difficult family members and working on a more positive outlook in your own life. In the same way that there are people who bring our energy down, there are people who bring our energy up and who are energising and positive to be around – surrounding yourself with those people and working on your own attitude is a great way to protect your own energy.

Everyday we all make thousands of choices. Some are small, simple ones with no lasting impact, others have a far more profound effect on our daily lives. When we think about these bigger decisions it’s hard not to look back and wonder whether we made the right call, whether things would have been better if we did something else or whether we should have decided differently because that’s what everyone around us is doing. But finding a way to be content with your choices, find peace in what you decided and have compassion for that version of yourself can be incredibly freeing. It can help you lean into the moment, be more grateful and learn a bit more about yourself.

Having the courage to change your mind about something can feel scary. That could be a belief you once held but no longer do, it could be a life path you wanted but now want to pursue another, or it could be deciding to make lifestyle changes. But there’s a strange belief that you should follow through on all your decisions and accomplish everything you set out to, society ties changing your mind to a form of failure and that’s just not the case. It’s okay to change your mind. It’s a sign of self-growth and development – after all, no one stays the same forever. We all need to be more accepting of the fact that it’s okay to change your mind.

I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman

It’s a saying we’ve all heard – “You can’t be everyone’s cup of tea”, but how often do we actually remind ourselves that we can’t please everyone? We’re often so busy worrying about what everyone thinks of us that we forget to think of ourselves and how much unnecessary stress that puts us under. You can’t be everything to everyone and if you are trying to do that, it’s not only impossible, it’s also exhausting and can lead to fragmenting your own personality so you’re not even sure who the ‘real you’ is.

This is a big topic and it’s unique to everyone’s life experiences so we’re only scratching the surface of this conversation so we’d love to hear your thoughts on this too.
