Abundance through Integrity
Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles, while abundance is profusion, plentifulness, profuseness or copiousness. One may wonder what is the link between the two. Deep down, the heart knows our inner truth. That feeling which is certainly true, that every iota of our being resonates with. Our truth is that innate feeling which spontaneously jumps at us in the most unexpected manner. And we have to face it!
The secret is to align with that truth and create abundance in our lives. It is as simple as slicing to soul level and taking it straight from there. Billions of us are still making money, having relationships and living good lives.
What distinguishes integrity derived abundance from other forms?
The issue is that not many are waking up to the truth! Yet they still are able to get by. Because at the top there are few eagles scaling the sky rest are following their flight. So goes for all of us one CEO, the rest employees. One GURU, the rest followers. One Michael Jackson or Madonna, the rest amateur singers – so where is the cut?
Surely it is the ability to dig deep and walk the toughest path of ‘truth’. We do not all need to be Guru’s, Madonna’s, Nelson Mandela’s, Jesus Christ’s or Admirals of US Navy, President of Singapore, or a COO of a large corporation, but we can still create abundance through integrity. It is as simple walking our path, for example, selling vegetables and becoming abundant that way. As the saying goes ‘what makes you happy makes you abundant’.
If something in our lives is not making us happy, then it is time to ‘course correct’ or probably, to contemplate, reflect and go within to find the cause. This makes it possible to switch gears and find the next best ‘happiness factor’. A tough call, but a necessary one if we want to sleep peacefully and breathe an air of ease.
Abundance involves mental and physical health
Many medical problems come about when we are not aligned with our inner truth. At times, it would appear that we are caught up in a rat race which has been created by other people’s principles. It is time to break free from that cloud, and n with our intrinsic reality. Plenty of job failures and relationship problems can be averted by just going within. ‘Know thy self’!
Abundance does not imply having only money. It reflects every area of life: financial, emotional, career, relationship, health etc. And nothing is above peace, which is sourced from within the ‘Soul’. For each of us, the definition of abundance is derived from how close we are linked within. Some people relate the idea of abundance with expensive or exotic purchases. For others, the simple things in life are simply awesome.
The bottom line is that as long as we don’t get boxed into the comparison game – a vicious cycle – we will be in much better shape. We can expect to have what we want at the right time, in magical ways, and our needs will be fulfilled. This is the way the universe operates. The Universe will also help us if we open ourselves to our soul truth. And that good will manifest what might seem like an outrageous wish, so long as we align with our soul’s truth. The benefits of generating abundance through integrity are enormous!

According to Peter H Diamandis and Steven Kotler, abundance is about creating a world of possibility: where everyone’s days are spent dreaming and doing, not scrapping and scraping.
Diamandis and Kotler tell us that the Pyramid of abundance can be divided into 3 levels. The bottom level belongs to food, water, shelter, and other survival concerns; the middle is devoted to growth like abundant energy, educational opportunities and access to communication and information; while the upper tier is reserved for freedom and social work.
This point of view encourages us to harness abundance by revamping our societies, from the bottom up! It gives us a map for ‘course correcting’ and eliminating a short-sighted approach.
We all are born with unique gifts. The realization then becomes that the passion that drives us can generate opportunities and synchronicities for us. Abundance through integrity is a harbinger of such an era of entrepreneurs, creators, and originals. It’s about expanding the conventional mindset and exploring myriad ways of coexisting happily and purposefully!
