Scarcity Mindset – 4 Ways To Create Abundance By Changing Your Habits
Are you worried you have a scarcity mindset? Here are 4 ways to create abundance in your life today by changing your habits.
Ah habits.
We all know they are important.
Whether you’d like to lose a few pounds, enhance your love life, set a new goal or make more money, good habits are super important to embrace.
News alert: Your current situation is the result of your habits.
Can you see how this could be true?
Our habits control what we do and think each day and the sum of each day usually predicts your future.
Your thoughts and actions add up over weeks, months, and years and ultimately your circumstances are the result of these habits.
For example, your body is the culmination of the eating and exercise habits you’ve had over the last several years.
True, right?
The same can be said for your financial situation and your social life -“ they are the grand result of your beliefs, attitudes, and actions regarding money or other people.
Regardless of your objective, you will find it difficult to be successful in different areas without habits that contribute to that success.
In the end by changing your habits, you can create the abundance you desire.
Abundance is not something we acquire; it’s something we tune into. Wayne Dyer
See yourself living in abundance and you will attract it. It always works, it works every time with every person. Bob Proctor
Consider using these strategies to develop habits that bring you abundance:
SCARCITY MINDSET
TIP # 1 – Raise your glass ceiling.
Most of us don’t realize that we have a level of abundance in our head that’s challenging for us to surpass.
I like to call this our upper limit ceiling.
We might easily be able to see ourselves earning $100,000 per year, but can’t wrap our minds around $500,000.
Sometimes these larger numbers seem impossible to reach.
- And here’s the paradox. If you don’t believe you can do it, you’ll prove yourself correct.
Work each day to raise your level of expectation.
Visualize earning more than you believe is possible.
Stick with that image until the resistance melts away.
When you can imagine it without feeling uncomfortable, you’re on the road to success.

TIP # 2 – Keep negative thoughts and emotions out of your head.
This is especially important when it comes to earning money and your lifestyle.
Always remember: you can control your thoughts.
Only you, no one else!
Negative thoughts lead to negative outcomes just like positive thoughts lead to positive outcomes.
So take a deep breath and relax.
Let go of the thoughts that aren’t helping you and get back to work.
It does require practice to stay positive but its payoff is immense.
There’s no time like the present to start practicing.

TIP # 3 – Have a clear goal.
In order to achieve any goal, you need to know what exactly it is that you want.
If you are travelling around aimlessly throughout life without a goal chances are you will end up nowhere fast.
You need to be able to define your goal and once you know what you want you can develop a plan to achieve it.
- Make a habit of reviewing your goals daily. Set aside a few minutes twice a day to review and visualize reaching your goals.

TIP # 4 – Provide as much value as possible.
Money is a compact, tangible form of value.
Once you understand that people will spend it for things they VALUE, the next question to ask is HOW CAN YOU PROVIDE MORE VALUE TO PEOPLE?
The more you focus on the value of your product or service, the less important the price becomes. Brian Tracy
People who say it takes money to make money are using the worse excuse ever. Create massive value for others by providing a solution where no other exists. Matt Mickiewicz
Branding is the ability to constantly create a perception in the minds of your audience/market that there is no product/service like yours that meets their needs and wants by providing distinct value. Bernard Kelvin Clive
- Spend each day brainstorming ways you can provide for value to others and charge them for this service. When you are providing value with a good idea, money will naturally flow in the direction of value.
Now I don’t want you to freak out and feel like you have to change a dozen habits at the same time.
Studies have shown that habits are best changed slowly.
Conversely, big changes are very difficult to maintain and uncomfortable to even begin.
So take the time to add a new habit into your life one at a time.
There’s no rush.
It might take weeks or even months to have a new habit fully implemented but that’s okay.
Ask yourself now: how many positive habits have you added in the last five years?
Slow results are better than none.
Another approach to take is to look at the habits that are currently limiting your abundance.
Do you have any?
Do you recognize any habits that is holding you back?
If so, do what you can to remove them from your life slowly.
In the end, your habits create your environment.
Abundance is a habit so you need to cultivate it.
Good habits are worth adding to your life and they will sustain you whether you are feeling inspired or not.
Creating effective habits will increase the level of abundance in your life.
As they say, we are what we repeatedly do.
Excellent therefore is not an act but a habit.
Having a motivation for a more abundant life is what will get you started but a habit is what will keep you going.
I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks but I do fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times. Bruce Lee
Changing habits that are no longer consistent with your higher purposes is one of the hardest things you’ll ever do and one of the most essential to the quality of your life. Brian Tracy
You leave old habits behind by starting out with the thought ‘œI release the need for this in my life.’ Wayne Dyer
