Abundance Now: Amplify Your Life & Achieve Prosperity Today by Lisa Nichols
“Abundance is when you are living a life that you love and loving the life that you are living.” Lisa Nichols
Is your cup half-full or half-empty? Abundance is a mindset and we have the power to live a life of abundance or conversely, live a life of scarcity.
As Lisa describes in this book abundance is not something available for purchase but rather something we tap into, develop, cultivate and grow.
This means we can all live rich and abundant lives but what does that really mean.
Lisa’s definition of abundance is when you are living a life that you love and loving the life that you are living.
Abundance is having a large quantity of something, anything. In regards to abundance in the context of life it relates to your prosperity, hence the subtitle of Lisa’s book.
“The journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.” Lao Tzu
We are all on our own journey and that journey often begins with a single step. This is a choice and its up to you to take that first step.
You may need some motivation to get started, you may need a bit of a kick in the bum for whatever the case you’ve got to get started.
The journey is not an easy one and its certainly not an overnight one. You have to be persistence and stay committed to what you desire.
Listen in to my quick thought for the day. I hope you enjoy and until next time peace, passion and purpose.

Summary
“I realised that I cannot do the same things over and over again, I’d get the same results.”
Benny Hsu pronounced ‘Shoe’ is a passionate individual who always had a dream that he’d live a somewhat remarkable life. Not one for working the regular 8 to 10 hour days and certainly not wanting to be confined to a cubical Benny kept dreaming about doing something more with his life, one that he could design. In this episode we discuss just how he has made this happen.
What I love about Benny’s story his is desire to find something that would work and his undeniable attitude which allowed him to keep exploring. After running an app company for a while he than went into shirt designs and it was in this business he found away to earn enough money to quit his job and really begin his entrepreneur life. He made $100,000 in the first five months in this business.

“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” Benjamin Franklin
This book is a recipe for productivity. It will help you become more disciplined and focused in achieving all that you desire on your journey to living with greater passion and purpose.
The subtitle of the book gives you a good indication as to what you can expect and that is to learn how to dominate your day before breakfast. Throughout this book Jeff shares practices, tips and advice on how you can master your day, master your life and essentially become more effective in how you approach life.
The idea of dominating your day before breakfast is not a new one but is currently a little bit trendy. I feel it’s like the next meditation wave.
“The more you sweet in peace, the less you bleed in war.” Chinese Proverb
Get into some solid mooring routines and part of that includes getting up and get some exercise in.
This is a prime way to get the blood flowing, get your energy level up, get the brain working and in doing this you will feel better for it.
You will be in a greater position to tackle the day and you when it ends I can almost guarantee that you will finish the day with less challenge, with more achieved and a feeling of enlarged satisfaction.
Get into this habit- it can transform you life.
Enjoy this thought and let me know what your exercise routine looks like.
Peace, passion and purpose!

Kevin Clayson describes himself as a pretty simple fellow yet when you listen to this episode you may think otherwise. He comes across with so much energy it is contagious. I found myself talking faster and pumped-up as if I just had 8 red bulls myself, which he jokingly says he had prior to this interview.
He reveals many great tips and tricks and certainly in our chat we uncover useful ideas and inspiration for all of us on our journey. We also discuss his book, FLIPing the Gratitude Switch, which is something he has worked on over the last few years. Speaking in front of many people sharing this information.
