They say that if you have the right mindset anything you want will be up for grabs. This mindset is called the abundance mindset. William James said, “the greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitudes of mind”. Are they simply saying that any regular dude can achieve anything by just setting their mind to it? Aren’t they simplifying it too much? Maybe. If you’re not buying it and you feel that it is a total mush, I agree with you. But there is another truth that says: nobody with a scarcity mindset can achieve anything. I think both of us are completely sold on that. So why not call the shots and try to think deeper about the first statement as well. No, don’t cross your fingers. It is neither a matter of luck nor about taking a chance! So be careful, don’t go back to your old nonfunctional scarcity mindset.  Maybe you should have to come up for air after a long journey of confusion. Because setting the right mindset is not a simple thing to do. A quick prod: Mindset is not something that we are born with, it is something that we gain and work on while growing up. If results are not shown yet, don’t drop out. Things need time. Just believe in the process and keep it up. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/support
