Good morning and welcome to Wake Me Up. I'm Tyler, your host, as always. We've been talking this week about abundance, recognizing and appreciating all of the things you do have, rather than focusing on the things you don't. This very simple shift of attention can have amazing benefits for your mindset,

opening your eyes to all the opportunities you have rather than seeing scarcity. Now real quick, if you're still in bed, then I'd recommend starting with Monday's Wake Up and Stretch episode, which will get you up and going, and then you can come back here to get motivated if you'd like. Now let's get started.

Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, just pause for a second. And think of something that you do have that you're grateful for. Maybe this is a personal skill or interest. Maybe it's a home. Maybe it's a friend. And once you have that thing in mind, take a big inhale, filling up with appreciation and then just exhale and release. And now think of a second thing that you're grateful for.

Something you do have. And again, this can be anything. Again, take an inhale and fill up with appreciation for that thing. And then exhale and release. Let's do that one last time. So again, come up with something that you're grateful for. Anything in your life. It doesn't have to be anything grand.

All right, now take in a deep breath. deepest one yet, filling up with appreciation, and then exhale and release. Now feel free to go about your morning, making your coffee or your tea, having a stretch or going for a walk, whatever you like to do. And while you do that, just allow me to be your companion, while I highlight a few ways that your life is already abundant. And there's no better place to start than the very basics. The forces of the universe have brought you about. More than 99.99% of the universe is just empty space.

So even starting with these most basic building blocks, matter and empty space, you are already quite special. And on top of that, most matter isn't alive, at least as far as we can tell. You, however, are alive, which means the universe has thrust its creative energy into you. And this holds true regardless of religious or spiritual beliefs. So if you're ever feeling like everything is working against you, remember that in all seriousness,

the universe has conspired to put you here. It's working with you and for you, not against you. Even though in certain moments our eyes may not be open to all of the ways in which that might occur. Second, despite all of the issues we can point out with the world, it is by most objective measures the best time to be a human. Poverty, food scarcity, ease of living, violence are all at lows when compared to the whole timeline of human history. And again, these things certainly do still exist, and we should not become complacent about them.

But we must also recognize that for the average human, life is much more comfortable now than it was 100 or 1,000 years ago. So against enormous probabilities, you are here and living to begin with, and you're living at a relatively comfortable time in history. Consider the trajectory that puts you on. Just counting the basic fundamental principles,

you are already a rarity. Your life is wildly abundant when you view it in this way. No matter who you are or where you come from, the opportunities you have are exceptional. So how do we foster this mindset of abundance? Well, it starts with a basic foundation, a practice, a focusing on, what you do have and what you can do with it rather than what you don't have.

And this is available to everyone. You don't have to be rich and powerful because what's most important is who you are, your skills, your way of seeing the world, your ideas, and how you put them to use with your time. Look into yourself, see the good in you, and find you. Find a way to put that out into the world. Not only will that make you feel good about yourself, but you'll be making the world better for others too. And by putting yourself out there,

you'll be creating more opportunities for yourself. This is how abundance works. It's a cycle that repeats and builds on itself. Whether you try to or not, you very actively choose what you bring into your life. If you sit on your couch and do nothing all day, then very little is going to come to you. If you go out and follow the negatives, then you will feel negative and more negative things will come to you. But if you go out and follow the positives, you'll feel better and more positive things will come to you.

So believe in yourself. Know that you deserve good things. and put your own good intentions out into the world, it will come back to you. And that's not to say everything will be rosy and perfect, but that's where a classic saying comes in. When one door closes, another one opens. You see, people with a mindset of abundance

don't view a closed door as the end-all be-all. They know there is more good, more opportunity out there. They just have to keep their eyes open for it. So my friends, I hope that you remember just how unique you are in this universe and how special this opportunity truly is. Your life is a gift.

You are abundance. You are enough just as you are. Even so, you deserve to grow, improve and live better. And you have everything you need to do that. Well, that's all for today. I hope this episode has opened your eyes to all of the wonderful things and opportunities you have.

I'll talk to you soon, and until then, go out and have an absolutely fantastic day. If you want to listen to Wake Me Up, completely free of ads and promos, then be sure to check out the premium feed.
