The Scarcity Mindset

When you shop… you know, like purchasing an item in a store, on the web, from a catalog, whatever. Buying anything at all…

What do you feel?

Do you feel like, a sadness of sorts? Like there’s some sort of loss within you because you just lost money?

Funny thing is, that a lot of people do that. They feel as if they just lost money by purchasing something. Do you?

It’s stupid, because as we talked about before, money does not exist.

You know what it is? It’s a shadow of something else… a REPRESANTATION of something else; Value.

Money is a representation of value.

AAAnd what do we do when we buy something?

It’s an exchanging of value.

No one loses a thing. You’re just exchanging value. You give value in the form of money, and you get the exact same amount of value back in the form of food, furniture, gadgets, squirrels, whatever.

You get it? This is one way you can look at it if you’re having trouble realizing that “you are already rich” that you keep hearing.

Aye, that was another little, um, I guess you could call it a lesson. Well, see ya,
