On the subject of abundance…
I recently found some old notes from an ezine by James Ray’s dated 2/14/08:
“Your desire is your higher self speaking to you, awaiting manifestation.”
He goes on to say: “I remember years ago hearing one of my mentors say, ‘Decide to be a millionaire… not for the green slips of paper, but for who you will have to BECOME to get there.’”
Wow! What an interesting concept. Not for the money itself and what it brings you, but for who you will have to become…
“… you see, your current results are a direct reflection of the person you have become up to this point. Why is it that those who win the lottery – almost without exception – are flat broke and miserable within 2 years? It is because they have not yet BECOME the type of person necessary to live at that level. It takes a bigger person to make $100,000 per year than $10,000. It takes a bigger person to become a millionaire than to retire on social security.”
When I re-read that, I swayed a bit on the “bigger person” thing. What does he mean by “bigger person”? After all, Mother Teresa was a bigger person than I, and she had given up her claim to any earthly riches in order to do her work in the streets of Calcutta.
But he goes on to qualify what he means…
“Understand, I did not say a better person… there is not one of us that is better than anyone else. We have all been given the same potential from our Creator. But it does take a bigger person. It takes a person who is willing to stretch, to take risks, massive action and have tremendous faith.”
Yes, that makes sense… a bigger person is one who thinks bigger and one who reaches bigger. This means that if I am to align to the abundance that is meant for me, I must stretch, take risks, take massive action and have tremendous faith.
Guess, I’m finally ready to be a bigger person. And, man, my higher self must be infinitely patient with me, too… because there have been some specific abundance desires hanging around with me for some time! And to think that I first read this ezine from James Ray in 2008. I bet if I listen hard enough I’d hear something from my higher self like, “It’s about dang time – now get on with it!”
