Take a moment and think about what abundance means to you. Ask yourself, “Do I feel abundant? What areas of my life do I feel abundant in?” Let’s get clear now. Rate yourself from 1 feeling impoverished, 5 being comfortable and 10 being abundant.

Now, see in your mind’s eye a picture of what this looks like. Affirm that abundance is happening in each of these areas.
