Transcending Scarcity Mindset

Artist in the Minnetonka studio!

When I was in grade school, I was a rather competitive child.

I have come to realize during the past few years both just how freeing not only pursuing one’s own success, wellbeing, peace and joy is, but also so is the pursuit of one’s friends and everyone else in the world.

We are all, in every category of life, at different levels of excellence/ mastery, and I find it so beautiful that there is no ceiling to mastery. We have that eternal spark within us and in the spirit of growth and progress, we will be supported in our healing and in our inner and outer mastery.

Prayer has been a big catalyst of moving that comparative and competitive energy within myself for others in my life and for my personal individual growth. The mindset shift in me has affected my relationships with fellow community members. This has been including other artists’ and poets. This goodwill for all is the spirit of abundance I find, and it is a better way to be than shame.

As a teenager, I used to compare my “rankings” (this sounds so silly now…) with that of others. Today, I do not anymore (for the most part I would say - sometimes I have to check myself), and this has been gratifying beyond belief. I trust in my path and my divine support, and I am learning learning to trust in myself and step into my power.
