What Is an Abundance Mindset (And How to Start Living It)

July 19, 2025

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “There’s never enough time,” or “I’ll be happy when…”?
I used to live in that space without even realizing it. Always waiting, always measuring, always comparing. But then I discovered something that changed everything: the power of an abundance mindset.

An abundance mindset isn’t about having more money or success, it’s about believing that you already have access to what you need. It’s a way of seeing the world through a lens of possibility, trust, and sufficiency, even if your outer circumstances haven’t changed yet.

When I first started learning about mindset work, I was fascinated by how much our thoughts shape our reality. I had read Psycho-Cybernetics, then later Rewired, and I began to understand that the way I spoke to myself (my self-concept, my beliefs) had a direct impact on my emotions, actions, and results. And when I learned about abundance thinking, it felt like someone handed me a key I didn’t know I needed.

Instead of focusing on what’s missing, I began focusing on what was already here: the quiet joy of a morning cup of tea, the sense of calm when I stitch, the progress I was making (even when it was slow).

That shift made me more creative, more hopeful, and more aligned with the life I actually wanted.

🌺 So What Exactly Is an Abundance Mindset?

It’s the belief that:

There’s enough time, love, opportunity, and creativity to go around.
Your worth isn’t measured by productivity.
You don’t have to earn rest or joy, you’re allowed to feel good right now.
There’s space for growth, and mistakes don’t mean failure.

And the best part? It’s not something you have to master overnight. It’s a practice, one small thought shift at a time.

🌷 How to Start Living with More Abundance

You don’t need to overhaul your life. You just need to start noticing:

When you catch yourself thinking, “There’s not enough time,” try shifting to “I can give myself five peaceful minutes right now.”
When comparison creeps in, gently remind yourself: “There’s enough room for me, too.”
Try starting your day with an abundance affirmation like:
“Abundance is always available to me, and money is an unlimited resource.”
or
“I always have all the time I need.”

🌼 From Scarcity to Stillness

Abundance is found in being present, not in having more. That’s one reason I love cross stitch. It gives me a chance to pause, breathe, and bring beauty to life one stitch at a time. It’s a reminder: I’m creating something meaningful, slowly, intentionally. And that… is abundance.
