Today's Challenge: Identify a time when you’ve attacked someone or have been attacked. Can you see where they have experienced a sense of loss or deprivation? Or perhaps where you’ve felt that way?

Paste the “How To” portion below to your mirror to remind you of what to do the next time your in an aggressive situation.

How To Come From a Place of Abundance Let the person on the attack speak. Do not react. Just listen. As they speak get yourself centered in the quiet place inside of you. Acknowledge their concerns even if you don’t agree with them. Reflect back to them abundance attributes that you know they possess: i.e. patien

The spiritual principle of abundance permeates much of our lives. However, it’s not just about money. Abundance is all encompassing. In all aspects of your life we are challenged with the choice of coming from a place of abundance or one of lack & deprivation (i.e. fear). Where you sit within that barometer will determine your reaction to business situations, personal relationships and of course financial ones as well.

Have you ever been in a situation where you felt attacked by a colleague or friend? Those who attack do not know they are blessed. They attack because they believe they are deprived. Give, therefore, of your abundance, and teach your brothers theirs. Do not share their illusions of scarcity, or you will perceive yourself as lacking. Attack could never promote attack unless you perceived it As a means of depriving you of something you want. “A Course in Miracles”

Scarcity and lack are connected to 1st chakra survival issues. Your 1st chakra is the most primal of all the energy centers. So it should be no surprise that an attack, verbal or otherwise, is the result of an individual feeling threatened. By the way, the “otherwise” could be resentment, complaining & playing the victim – all done in a covert manner. Not all verbal attacks are done in plain sight.

So what is it that is lost or scarce?

But it ranges from lack of recognition, control, success, power and or freedom. Or feeling of deprived of anything even love, affection, connection to others or experiencing joy.

The only way to remedy this situation is to act from abundance. By either pointing out the individuals’ abundance & blessings or using your own abundance.

It doesn’t matter if you an entrepreneur, a corporate or civic professional, mother, student or political figure. It is our collective responsibility to foster the principle of abundance in our fellows and remove the perception of scarcity or loss. This is where we find peace in our daily lives. By taking time each day to be of service and bless someone you are giving them that gift.

Practical Example: Sally aggressively confronts another supervisor, Dean, about the lack of productivity in his area. Sally says: “This is insane; your team is messing up the entire work flow process. This person on your team, Carrie, is a complete waste of space! You better fix this soon or we’re all in trouble."

Sally is reacting from a place of fear & retribution. She feels a loss of control. And her target is Carrie.

Dean shifts Sally’s energy easily by coming from a place of abundance. His response is to tell Sally that he appreciates how organized and systematic she is. This is an important attribute that he values. He is pointing out her abundance & the wealth that she brings to the situation.

He acknowledges there is an issue by recapping the situation in a less aggressive manner, saying “Sally I appreciate you telling me this. You are saying that we need to correct the work flow situation” & he assures Sally that he will find a solution they can both be happy with. In doing this he is reflecting his own abundance and security with the resources he has and his own capabilities.

This situation could have gone really badly if Dean reacted from a place of loss & scarcity.
