Why in the world are 97% of Americans convinced that they are destined to work for someone else for a fraction of what they are worth? Don't you and they believe that it is possible for someone to become a millionaire? Then why believe that it is only possible for someone else and not for you? Could it possibly be that most people are afraid of abundance?
Think about it. Abundance changes everything, doesn't it? It makes us responsible for more than simply surviving. When we possess riches of any sort, we are forced to become stewards of those riches. Don't we all think that we would do great things if only we were wealthy? So if we allow ourselves to become wealthy, we have to make good on our promises to ourselves or others.
None of us was created for mediocrity. We have within us the seeds of greatness that God lovingly bestowed when he created us in his image. This is a legacy of immeasurable potential. Satan has lied to us and we have believed him when we think ourselves lowly and unworthy of abundance.
I believe in your abundance and am ready to take a stand for your greatness. Contact me today and let's get you moving forward!
To the Liberation of Your Abundance.

Abundance - Do You Really Want It?
Man, I was totally blown away this past week in a Disciple IV Bible study I facilitate. We are studying the gospel of John and this particular passage comes from John 5:1-8. In these verses, we find Jesus in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate. Near this gate is a pool which people believe has healing properties so many infirm people lie near it awaiting a chance to be helped into the pool for healing. The question is, do they really want the abundance of healing they seem to be waiting for?
Jesus meets a man there who has been an invalid for 38 years. Jesus asks the man if he wants to get well. At first this question seems like a no-brainer until we examine the man's response. He starts making excuses for why he has not been able to get into the pool and be healed all these years. He never did answer the question Jesus asked but instead made excuses. Jesus didn't ask the question again nor did he comment on the man's excuses. Jesus simply told the man to pick up his mat and walk, which he did.
You may be wondering why this impressed me so much. Well, for starters, even though I am quite able-bodied and thankful for this fact, I saw myself as the invalid. I have prayed for change in the form of increased abundanced but was I really prepared for the changes that would bring? In being healed, the invalid's life was totally changed. He could no longer cling to the same excuses that had kept him from moving ahead for 38 years. It's no wonder he didn't immediately say "Yes" when Jesus asked if he wanted to be healed.
I started thinking about this in relation to abundance. What if we've been praying for a better job or more money and suddenly an opportunity presents itself for this to happen? Do we immediately jump at the opportunity or do we look for excuses? Are we afraid the opportunity isn't real, or are we afraid it is real? If it's real and we accept it, then we will have to change, won't we? We know what our current situation is like, regardless of how uncomfortable it is. Allowing ourselves to be changed (healed of the discomfort) holds a huge element of uncertainty.
Thankfully, I accepted the opportunity for healing and abundance in my life. This healing has brought time and financial freedom like I never dreamed possible. Was it scary to let go of the old, familiar life? Of course. Was the healing and subsequent abundance worth it? Absolutely. I invite you to examine your life. Have you been asking for "healing' but afraid that it might happen? Do you really want to stay stuck by the pool or would you rather pick up your mat and walk? The abundant life is one of not only walking but running.
What if this blog holds the answer to the abundance you say you've been waiting to receive. Do you really want it? For a relaxed conversation to help you decide, fill out the form on this page and I'll call you. Or you can call me. I believe that healing and abundance are readily available for all of us.

If You're Ready For Abundance, Then Look Out!
People often think they are ready to receive abundance in their lives until it actually presents itself. Then they start looking for reasons they don't deserve it or even for faults in the abundance itself. People often pray for a better job but when one presents itself, there are all kinds of reasons they find not to accept it. The commute is too long, the hours aren't right, the benefits package is lacking, etc. I'm sure you don't think that way so if you are ready for abundance today, then keep reading and look out!
In the area of financial abundance, there are numerous obstacles people have to overcome in order to be in receiving mode. If you've read this blog before, you know that my husband Ed and I are home based business entrepreneurs and have been for almost 2 years. When people ask us what we do for a living, we say we are in direct sales of personal development products. Our 3 products carry profits of $1,000, $5,000, and $8,000 each. We also have a built-in referral system and a plan for residual income.
If you have deservability issues, then you may already be skeptical of profits such as these. Whoever came up with the idea that decent profits are bad? I'm happy to pay someone else a profit on their service as long as the value I receive from the service or product exceeds what I pay for it. The products and services we offer far outweigh their costs in many ways. Our products serve to assist people in becoming the best they can be in any arena they choose. They are unique, non-fattening (in fact people who use them often improve their health and fitness), they have little or no adverse impact on the environment, and they are tax-deductible.
If you are ready for abundance in your life and would like to take an objective look at our business model, then give us a call or fill out the form.
To Your Abundant Success,
Ed and Sandra Hayes

Defining Abundance In Today's Economy
Many people I meet with have the mindset of lack. This is known as poverty consciousness. Focusing on lack simply causes one to live as though there is never of enough of something - money, material things, relationships, good will, etc. However, focusing on abundance is known as prosperity consciousness. And of course, whatever we focus on we attract, right? So how do we define abundance in today's economy?
If you have money in the bank, food in the pantry, and clothes in your closet, your life is more abundant than most people's in our world. Simply living in a country with freedom to choose where to live, work, and go to church opens your life to more abundance than you can imagine.
Now comes the real challenge. Are you living scared as you work at a job you dislike because you have convinced yourself that it provides you with some sort of security? In today's economy, there is no security working for a corporation whose sole concern is its own bottom line, not yours. True security comes from believing in yourself and your ability to generate sufficient wealth to afford you and your family the lifestyle you want and deserve.
So take a look around. Would you like to improve your situation? If the answer is yes, I stand ready to assist you in exploring possibilities. My goal is to assist as many people as possible to reach their true potential and experience the life of abundance that is available to us all.
To your abundance.

Are You Attracting Abundance Today?
What thoughts did you have when you woke up this morning? Did you think, "Oh no, it's Monday. I have to go to work." Did you think of challenges you are facing? Did you look at today as being full of possibilities or full of problems? Whatever you think about is what you attract. Are you attracting abundance into your life today?
Just by reading my blog, you are attracting an opportunity for abundance. In my experience, people are hoping they can achieve more in their lives but are afraid of being disappointed. The sad thing about this is that people often lower their expectations to what they consider a realistic level. We call this a limiting belief, which hinders people's progress more than anything else.
Once you no longer believe something is possible for you, it probably isn't. But simply believing and focusing on a goal already raises the possibility of your achieving it. This is what we learn in the field of personal development, which simply defined, means becoming aware that you actually create your reality by how you think and the actions you take. None of us are victims. We are 100% responsible for where we are right now.
This is realy good news. As you look around you, you already know that there are billions of dollars circulating in the economy. And thousands of people are millionaires. True, money isn't the only form of abundance. But having an abundance of money makes it possible for you to manifest abundance in other areas. You can have more time for important relationships. You can have the time and resources to make a difference by participating in causes you are passionate about.
If the idea of attracting abundance into your life today excites you, congratulations. Realize that anything is possible for you, starting this very minute. All you need to do is have faith and take action.

Is Your LIfe As Abundant As You Want?
Are you ready to have your financial cage rattled a bit? One simple question can achieve that purpose. Here it is: Is your life as abundant as you want? Not as abundant as you think is possible. Not as abundant as you think you deserve. The question remains, "Is your life as abundant as YOU WANT?"
Simply by being alive in the 21st century with the time and resources to read this blog makes you more abundant than most of the people who have ever lived before. However, I dare say you still live and think smaller than you need to. I know I sure did.
The change for me came when I became actively involved in personal development. I took the 90 day challenge to move BEYOND FREEDOM and did just that. Now I realize that the only thing standing between me and my ability to achieve even greater abundance in any area of my life everyday is my own doubt.
Unless I am growing and achieving higher goals everyday, my life is being wasted to some degree. So is yours. Remember, abundance is not about greed. It's about achieving all you are capable of achieving so you can bring glory to your creator by helping as many people as possible achieve their highest potential.
People are not kidding when they say life is short. Live yours as abundantly as possible. All big thinkers and high achievers have to conquer fear and step out on faith. The greatest tragedy is to live small and not strive for your greatest goals. Is your life as abundant as you want? If not, make a change today. Tap into your abundant potential

Receiving Abundance
All of us recognize the abundance in our world. So what keeps so many people from actually receiving abundance? After all, it's one thing to acknowledge the abundance in nature. People seem able to accept that creation is all about increase and growth. But it's quite another thing to feel deserving of abundance in the financial realm.
For some reason, many people have bought into the idea that wealth is somehow equated with greed. When you look at great people in the Bible, many of them were quite wealthy. Think of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, and Solomon. This did not make them unspiritual in any way. God created us to grow and increase and loves to bless His creation.
So why have people, maybe even you, bought into the idea that wealth is only for a few. If you really believe in abundance, isn't it obvious that there is enough wealth for everyone? I challenge you to change from poverty consciousness, believing that you are not deserving of more than the bare necessities and that wealth is for the privileged few. Focus on prosperity consciousness, which says that there is not a limited amount of pie to be shared. Rather, there are infinite numbers of pies yet to be made.
Recognize that we live and grow by increasing, just like all of creation. The next step is to truly believe that you deserve wealth in your life. If you have always been a wage earner, this is going to require a huge change in your mindset. Download and read The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles. It's a free download. As you learn to do things in the certain way, open yourself to receiving the abundance that is available to you.
