The three L’s of an abundant life; seeing what’s already there.

Tuesday, January 3, 2023

The table is set before you. “Wait, that’s it?” How can you possibly expect seconds, when you cannot see firsts? The world’s appetite for “more” restricts our ability to make the most out of what’s been given. The world is bypassing the first fruits, the breadcrumbs – the key ingredients of cultivating greatness. Truthfully, life always starts with morsels, appetizers if you will, before it sets out the banquet feast.

A good life is one where you make the most out of what’s already been given. To turn your nose up at it – not good. Amazing people do amazing things with a seed, a fragment, a tiny idea. They take sprigs and turn them into lavish bouquets. Ordinary people see the emptiness surrounding the morsel. Amazing people see the potential in the morsel. Amazing people notice the succulence of the appetizer, knowing full well that the feast is just beginning.

To make the most out of what’s given, infuse your life with what you already possess: Love, Lightness, and Laughter. Let yourself be a conduit of those kinds of gifts, and that’s how you make the most out of your life. You love who is already in your life, including yourself. You bring lightness into situations you already have. You laugh to transform negativity. You reduce heaviness around you by lightening up the environment. You sweeten the air with the perfume of love, laughter, and lightness. Show the world what you can do with what you’ve got. How can you manage “BIG” if you cannot appreciate, work with, and love what seems small? What’s been entrusted to your care needs three things to grow: Love, lightness, and laughter. You already have an abundance of these internal gifts. Use them in current situations, and you’ll see external abundance that makes your head spin!
