Creating from Abundance

12.02.2004 | Chris Bailey

This week, I’ve been thinking about creating from a mind-set of abundance rather than from scarcity. There’s real power in this, but not always the easiest thing to do. One of my very favorite books is A Simpler Way by Margaret Wheatley and Myron Kellner-Rogers and they write:

Life creates more possibilities as it engages with opportunities. There are no ‘windows of opportunity,’ narrow openings in the fabric of space-time that soon disappear forever. Possibilities beget more possibilities; they are infinite.

There’s a certain peacefulness that comes from this knowledge. That the right clients, the right job opportunities, the right career, or whatever it is for us are always out there waiting for us to see them. And they are never alone – we always tend to attract more just like them. It might seem a little woo-woo, particularly in a business setting, but I believe there is a creative force that exists that successful leaders know how to tap into to get phenomenal results in their lives.

So, fellow explorers, any experiences with creating from abundance?

I help business leaders and their organizations improve how they relate to their customers, employees, and other critical stakeholders. It’s born out of my belief that individuals crave meaningful relationships and want to be involved with companies that connect with them personally. I’m devoted to helping organizations discover the unique qualities that make them remarkable.

I’m currently a Master’s student at the University of North Texas studying business anthropology.
