One of our greatest gifts~ A lesson in gratitude and abundance

Recently I discovered one of our greatest gifts as spirits is that our ability to generate ideas and tap into the source of all knowledge is infinite. Looking back over the years I am saddened to realize the large amounts of time and energy I focused on hiding and not sharing information with others because I was worried about them “stealing” my visions, knowledge, or my ideas for themselves. I was caught up in the naive thinking that others using my ideas or information could mean a heightened sense of success for them which in turn would have to mean a loss for me.  To grow we must reject this win/lose mentality. We must grow to understand that we live in a space of great abundance, there is enough for us all, if we choose there to be.

Today I subscribe to the belief that when we hold hostage our ideas and information we do not leave room for more information to come to us. When we share guided information or our inner most powerful thoughts and ideas, it sends a wave of gratitude to the universe. The act of giving this information away shows that you have not only understood the importance of the information you were given, but you took responsibility for it as well. In sharing this information you have taken something mental and transformed it into something that now has the power to manifest here in this space into a physical reality. That is really important let’s read it again… In sharing this information you have taken something mental and transformed it into something that now has the power to manifest here in this space into a physical reality. Cool huh?

This gratitude will continue to send waves through the universe that you are ready and able to accept more information and more ideas. Thus giving you an endless supply! Think of how helpful this could be in your approach to parenting, offering good ideas at work, forming and retaining relationships and in countless other practical ways. Wouldn’t it be great to have a source of endless awesome ideas? You can have this. It is not something accessible for a “chosen” few.  You just have to be brave enough to share with others.  That’s it. That’s the trick.

Please note this does not mean that you are obligated to tell the world every time that you have thought that is guided, creative or powerful. It is also not intended to mean that you give away every good idea you have and leave nothing for yourself. It means simply to bring a new awareness into the picture, to live in a state of mindfulness. Move through this space sending out waves of gratitude and choose abundance rather than sending out signals of fear and loss. Remember you will get back exactly what you send out!
