Step-4
Hunt for Abundance and Silence

In today’s world, everyone seems to want more of everything – more food, more money, more gossip. This desire for more has been around for a long time, even when resources were scarce. Nowadays, most resources are not scarce, but we still carry a historical mindset of scarcity.

To overcome this scarcity mindset, it’s important to say no to scarcity and shift your focus to the abundance around you. You can do this by counting your blessings and recognizing the abundance, even in everyday things like a traffic jam.

Focusing on abundance goes beyond just being optimistic; it enriches your life. For example, instead of seeing a glass as half-full, you realize there is plenty of water, and you feel grateful for it.

It’s also essential to say no to noise, which includes anything that disturbs your peace of mind. Replace noise with silence by being aware of negative thoughts or troubling news and choosing to switch off distractions, like not watching distressing documentaries.

Silence not only brings peace of mind but also allows you to listen with an open heart. Practice this by giving your full attention to everyone around you for 24 hours, making them feel noticed and valued in silence. The impact of making someone feel seen is powerful and unforgettable!
