Day 6: The Seeds of Success (Ram)

Welcome to day six. We are born with everything we need for a life of fulfillment and success. But often we measure our love, joy, health, vitality, and other positive qualities by comparing ourselves to someone, or something else, perhaps thinking thoughts like, “I have a loving relationship, but not as loving as my friends.” Or, “I live in a nice house, but not as big as my brother’s.” Or, “I have a good job. But I don't make as much money as my colleagues.”

Such comparisons, stem from object refer, looking outside oneself for validation. But in abundant life is not about external comparisons. Instead, a life of fulfillment comes from within—from the knowledge that you were created with everything you need to be happy and successful, and can access those seeds of abundance at any time. 

Currently, all over the world, many people are experiencing difficult times. When we experience such setbacks, we sometimes feel like we'll never achieve success. Yet, in every perceived failure or setback is the seed of success. In every situation, we have new opportunities to find creative solutions for our problems, redefine our priorities, and explore other options. 

We begin to view our challenges more positively once we realize that we possess the power to focus our attention on new possibilities, and possibilities for abundance are endless. There are no limits to what we can have. 

Take the time to look at each situation that challenges you and find those seeds of success that will attract greater abundance into your life. As we prepare to go into silence, let's consider the abundant banquet of life that has been spread before us in all its splendor. And spend a moment focusing on this centering thought:

Everything I desire is within me. 

Ram ♥
