Annette's Entry: Creating Abundance – Financially and Spiritually

Here's an entry from Annette Adamos:

What does it mean to create abundance anyway? Is it making a lot of money? Is it spending quality time with family? Is it having a lavish lifestyle? Is it having a great relationship with God?

THAT is a lot to discuss in one blog post, but allow me to give it a shot…

The Typical…
I learned the concept below in one of the many workshops that I have attended, and it goes something like this:

When you’re young, as in less than 20 years young, you’re active and HEALTHY. You got lots of TIME in your hands, but you don’t have your own MONEY – your parents support you as you study.
After graduation, you start working so you do have MONEY. You’re active and HEALTHY, but you simply do not have the TIME as your job eats up most of your regular days and even some weekends. You do this routine for 4 decades (that’s 40 years!) – starting around age 20 until 60.
By the time you reach 60 or 65, you’re expected to have MONEY set aside to retire comfortably. The amount should be good enough to last you 20 years, this is TIME that you now have if you live until about 80. Unfortunately, you probably won’t be in good HEALTH, because you were so busy the past 40 years that you forgot to take care of yourself!
