Thinking about abundance during study or meditation is a
valuable practice, and the practice becomes truly powerful when
you think about abundant ideas during the ordinary activities of
your day. What are you thinking about when you are brushing
your teeth? What are you thinking about when you are washing
the dishes? What do you think about when you are driving?
What do you think about when you are eating? Each of these
activities is an opportunity to redirect your thought to something
that will nurture your appreciation of the abundance
around you.
For example, take one single idea such as “The Universe is
infinite,” and use it as a guide through one complete day of
activities.You could use a question such as “How is what I am
doing right now an example of the idea that the Universe is infinite?”
and think about possible answers.The trick is to remember
to do so regularly.
I have experimented with a timer set at random times to
remind me of the idea I am working with for the day.When the
timer goes off, I pause in my activities to consider what I am
thinking.Whatever I am doing, I try to come back for a moment
to the question:“How is what I am doing right now an example
of the idea that the Universe is infinite?”
