A Year of Abundance

It’s that time of year again. The time for reflection.

The time for 2010 was a year of Discovery for me.

Because of The Joy Equation, I rediscovered my values.

Because of writing, I rediscovered my passion for life.

Because of my children, I rediscovered my intuition.

Because of all of these things (and more), I rediscovered myself.

This part of my journey was so crucial.  It has laid the foundation for the beautiful things to come in my future. I hope that 2011 is all about Abundance.  Everything positive that occurred this year, I want 10 times more of it.  Not because I am greedy, but because I deserve it.  And no, I am not just talking about money (though I definitely could use much more of that in 2011).

I am talking about love, connection, community, trust, spirituality, health. I am talking about more time spent with my family and more time spent with my creativity. Because I deserve it.

This year of discovery has also been about remembering that I am worthy. (All of us are born worthy. But somewhere along the way, because of things people have said or things we have experienced in life, that belief in our worth fades, maybe it disappears.) It wouldn’t have mattered how badly I wanted success, love, happiness, or fulfilling work if deep down I never believed that I deserve it.   And I finally believe it.

Yes. Abundance. That is what I hope to see in 2011.

    "I am talking about love, connection, community, trust, spirituality, health. I am talking about more time spent with my family and more time spent with my creativity. Because I deserve it." You're so right, you do deserve it because you are wonderful, powerful and deserving all this abundance.
