Last night I read a powerful email by another Ben on this very question. And though many of us may jump right to a spiritual answer, how many of us still tie much of our day-to-day security – or lack thereof – to something external?
Our job, our bank account, our current business, our investments or assets?
Yet as the email went on to say – referring back to a newsletter written by Dan Kennedy over 20 years ago – recent history has shown us repeatedly that any of these can disappear virtually overnight.
So where do we put our security?
Here’s what Dan wrote over 20 years ago:
The only real security is your ability to produce.
This statement sparked thoughts I’ve been percolating on for weeks now – and a fun discussion with Rachelle this morning as we sat on the porch by the fire – that we carry our access to ideas, love, life, supply – to our very Source that loves us – and to our “ability to produce” within us!
Which means regardless of what happens externally, much of which we don’t have direct control of anyway (including other people!) we still carry access to what really matters within.
What if we cultivated this inner “access”, this inner resourcefulness, this inner “supply” that’s always available to us but we often live unaware of?
How might we approach our day and what it holds for us – and what new possibilities and empowering, even joyful discoveries might be in store for us?
Could we then open our hands and hearts and approach our day with vigor, anticipation, and without fear…
…and continue to cultivate our inner resourcefulness – our “ability to produce” – and our inner connection which we may at times ignore or forget, but which can actually never be taken away from us?
Here’s to your own inner connection, resourcefulness, and “ability to produce”!
