There is no one-stop shop for happiness, but cultivating an abundance mindset can boost your productivity and confidence. An abundance mindset is the belief that there are enough resources, material or otherwise, in the world for you. The “lucky girl syndrome” TikTok trend promotes something similar—the idea that luck befalls those who believe in themselves. Both concepts ask us to set cynicism aside and identify the positive solutions within our grasp. Here are 10 ways you can nurture an abundance mindset.
Practice positive self-talk
Words have a significant impact on your perception of the world, especially when it comes to self-talk. Self-talk refers to the unspoken thoughts that circle through your head during the day. These can be positive or negative. Negative self-talk can magnify pessimism and increase levels of anxiety. Meanwhile, positive self-talk helps develop healthy coping mechanisms. That way, it’s easier to face challenges and reduce stress. Avoid saying anything to yourself that you wouldn’t to someone else.
