I think, “When I have enough money, time, security, safety, respect or love, THEN I’ll be able to be generous and kind and caring and connected and optimistic.”
But I’ve got it backwards.
When I’m generous and kind and caring and connected and optimistic in my thoughts and beliefs (when I’m at home with myself and at peace with what is), I find I always have enough money, time, security, safety, respect and love.
Mind is cause. World is effect. Not the other way around.
