Abundance (Part 4) – Pruning, Fallowing & Trellising for Your Harvest (Preview)
Preparing for Abundance can be downright difficult.
It is easy to think of the harvest as just a windfall of all you desire. But as they say, be careful what you wish for…
Just like winning the lottery, if you get an abundance without preparation, you could be in for some heartbreak and pain.
Winning the lottery requires discernment in investment, budgeting, saving, giving…
The road to the harvest is a lot of work…
Pruning – You have to prune the habits that inhibit or no longer serve you… You have to get rid of weeds of your life – bad influences, drainers, negativity…
Fallow – Rest and rejuvenation can be especially challenging for those of us who are driven and ambitious and so anxious to make a positive impact in the world that we don’t know when to stop. But sometimes you have to rest and sharpen the saw in order to be more effective…
Trellising – You have to cultivate healthy habits, creating a strong infrastructure that can feel limiting… Trellising provides strength for weak branches and to support vines and their fruit. What constraints do you need to embrace in your life?
Just something to think about… More on this post coming soon…
