Once, it was in the middle of a personal development workshop. One of the people present stood up and began 36 out diamond rings to each of the one hundred people in the room.
He was a 37 jeweler, he said, and he had made these expensive 38 as gifts to open people’s eyes to the abundance(富裕) of life.
On his fifth birthday, the man 39 , his uncle had taken him to a candy (糖果) 40 and told him that he could take 41 he wanted, and as much as he wanted. 42 he was very pleased and decided to 43 something he liked best.
The entire store was 44 to him. He had looked at the jars and plates, and he hadn’t known where to 45 . At last, he filled a bag with all his 46 candies. He didn’t take everything, 47 that feeling of being able to have whatever he wanted seemed to make him very 48 .
Since then, he said, he had been able to 49 the abundance of life. He saw the world as full of 50 , riches and beauty — all you had to do was, take your pick and fill your bag.
The sad truth is that most of us grow up with the 51 feeling —we develop a poverty mentality(贫穷心理). We 52 believe that there simply isn’t enough. We think we have to 53 , fight and struggle, so that we can get what we need and want. If we can’t 54 our hands to get, someone else will be searching through our pockets. The 55 of that mentality is that we all have to go hungry.
Get a taste of abundance and try to have a great life.
