The Scarcity Mentality
If I had to make a list of my personal vices, I’m pretty sure jealousy would be pretty high on the list. The other day Noel sent me a link to an article on The Simple Dollar that helped me rethink the way I want to view situations. I’ve always known that being envious wasn’t a good thing (reference the Seven Deadly Sins), but I never really gave much thought to how it might negatively affect my relationships, optimism, or ability to succeed. The article obviously says it best, check it out.

My name is Glenna and I am sometimes covetous…
Remember all the beautiful beach homes I pointed out?
I have been changed however by this “abundance” theory mentioned here and it has truly made all the difference in my world. I’ve found a simple yet profound secret in focusing on being grateful for what I do have and on who and what I love. I only wish I had figured this out earlier in life.
That’s a great article. Thanks for posting the link.
