You might have heard people talk about attracting abundance, but do not know what it actually means. If you have a look in a dictionary, you will find the meaning for the word attracting as being able to pull toward or draw in. The word abundance means having more than adequate supply or quantity of something. The latter is what many people are after and this could be obtainable if you apply the law of attraction in your life.

This idea is not a new one - it has been around for decades. What you need to do however, is to understand how it works and how you could manifest it in your life. What the gurus say is you must not think about what you do not have, because you will attract that on which you concentrate your energies. Therefore, if you think about the scarcity you have in life, you are going to attract more scarcity.

This is the secret they say, think about abundance and you will attract more into your life. The moment you concentrate on how little you have, the more you are going to get just that - little. Take your wallet for instance, open it up, do you have a little in it or do you have enough? Compared to someone who does not even have a wallet, let alone one dollar, you would then have abundance. You should start by recognizing abundance everywhere you look and everywhere you go and in everything you do. By doing that, you start the flow of opportunities, creativity and true desires to manifest in and around you immediately. You hold the key to your own level of abundance.

You are not going to find a quick fix overnight solution. Just as you have been conditioned to live a life of scarcity, you need to re-condition your mind to live your life in abundance.

To do this, you could take a few minutes from your day, become quiet within yourself and start to rewire your brain so to speak. Change the record that constantly puts you down - put on a new one which plays positive thoughts of abundance so that you can turn that key and start the flow toward you.

Appreciate abundance when you become aware of it. Take a walk in a park or in your garden. Find a tree which appeals to you. Stand back and look at the leaves, the branches, the bark, the life that is teaming inside it, the birds, the shade it renders, the rustling sound of the abundant wind that brushes through its leaves. This tree lives in utter abundance under an abundant sun. Look at a flower. See how magnificent its structure is, the color and the scent, the bees that pollinates it. This flower too lives a life of abundance in an abundant earth. How much more can a wonderful human creation not live in abundance? The secret: notice abundance around you and it will start flowing toward you by means of your thoughts.

Invest in a good journal and write about your daily experiences with abundance. Eat, sleep and drink it and it will become part of your life. The other secret of course is that you need to share your abundance with someone else. That is how the law of attraction works.
