A Matter of Perspective


"If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."
Wayne Dyer
At The Millionaire Woman Club tonight, I was introduced to a board game that I had not played before. I enjoy playing board games because there is always a lesson to be learned. The lessons can come in many forms:
  1. Strategy
  2. Planning
  3. Anticipation
  4. Innovation
  5. Taking Risks
and many more. Tonight's lesson was learned through the game of Abundance developed by Brandon Broadwater. Our guest speaker Carly Chan Nickel shared her story about perspective. Two stories - the same stories can be told in two different ways yet one made all the difference.  It really had me thinking about so many things.

Do you pay attention to what you say about others or how you describe them to others? What would happen if you viewed that person with a different set of glasses or viewpoint? How much better do you sound when you make people feel good about themselves and what they offer their family, friends, and community?

We have the capacity and power to change our perspective of situations. Remember the glass half empty and the glass half full analogy. What sounds better? Opportunity OR scarcity? Abundance OR Emptiness? You have the choice to choose the mindset that can create a world of abundance.

Share your views on abundant living.
