For most of my childhood, as far back as I can remember, in my teens at school, in relationships, and in my corporate job, I was always running after the concept of being enough, having enough, proving I’m enough, the list goes on and on and on.
When I make enough money, I’ll feel content.
When I feel like I’m confident enough, I’ll start my own business.
When I feel like I’m fit enough, I’ll wear the bikini.
I made money. It didn’t change anything.
I started a business. It didn’t change how I felt.
I got super fit and healthy, and then decided I still had to work on getting defined abs.
Living inside of the concept of ‘enoughness’ is EXHAUSTING. Because there is no end to the mind’s idea of ‘enoughness.’
How long is a piece of string, I hear you ask? It’s like asking, when will my thoughts stop.
They won’t. Ever.
If I keep buying the mind’s idea of scarcity, I’m going to continue to experience it everywhere in my life.
Here’s what I realised.
Not enoughness doesn’t have to be my reality.
If I am creating my reality day in, day out, through the thinking I am choosing to place meaning on, then I don’t have to buy into any concepts that I don’t want to.
It’s my choice.
Paying for the feeling of being enough is an expensive way to live.
When you look in the direction of what you really are vs who you think you are, you will deeply see that you are already complete.
‘Not enoughness’ doesn’t exist in the realms of your True Being. It only exists and can only ever exist in the thought-created reality.
The beauty of this is that, if we can slow down to really see this, then we will experience ourselves as infinitely abundant.
It won’t be a nice thing to try and believe but a felt experience of your True Being.
Abundance doesn’t need more to be enough, because it knows it has everything it could ever need, in this moment, right here, right now.
When we deeply experience this, chasing ‘enoughness’ stops making sense.
