Food For Thought

Hello, friends and fellow travelers in this journey called life. Thank you for being here today. This week I focused on abundance. As one of my favorite subjects, it moves me in the way of a philosophical quandary that ignites my passion and commitment to realize the brevity of my dreams. But in working the paradox behind its archetypal essence, I find, as Epicurus says, abundance exists not in the things we have. Yet, for most, this is the proverbial tip of the iceberg by which the measurement of life’s value rests.

Is this wrong? No. In essence, it is not. For in the heart of human nature is a means to compete. This foundational human drive creates a willingness of attitude needed to chase one’s dreams towards fruition. However, in examining people committed to success, they don’t focus on the material items gained. These come as an aftermath of the abundance they seek. Instead, these individuals’ common denominator is their simple will to work hard and persevere towards one identifiable goal. I hope you enjoy today’s article, podcast, and I thank you for being a loyal supporter of this venture.

Namaste, my friends. May blessings find you on your journey to advance confidently in the direction of your dreams.
