If you’re reading this, you’re most likely someone who has enough money to pay your rent and stock your fridge. You’re most likely someone who’s not at immediate risk of harm. Perhaps you’re in a loving relationship and enjoy relatively good health. You have fresh air to breathe and water on demand. You might label your problems as “first world problems”.

You’re deeply grateful for what you already have and you want more. More money, more clients, more time freedom, more peace, more vitality, better health or more joy.


And perhaps you, like so many of us, are afraid to say out loud “I desire more. . .”


How could you possibly want more when you already have so much?


Here’s why:


It’s the nature of the soul to desire more. 


Always.


The thought that it’s bad to want more when you already have so much is a conditioned belief that you’ve had planted in you. 


You’ve been told all your life to be grateful for what you have. 


You’re reminded time and time again that there are so many with so much less.


However, your soul knows


  • you have unlimited potential

  • you are not bound by the limitations of your beliefs or thoughts

  • you were born to show up in the fullest expression of who you truly are

 

So, no matter how much you have, you will always desire more. Your soul will always nudge you towards a larger expression of who you are, and how you show up in this lifetime.


The nature of what is desired is different for each one of us. And it will change over time as we evolve and our karma is lived.


There’s no shame in this.


So, when a desire for more arises in you, acknowledge it as the nudge of your soul.


Instead of turning away from the possibility of having more 


  • examine the limiting beliefs you hold about your desire for more

  • recognise the limitations you hold about what is available for you

  • work on the level of inner power you require to be able to claim what you desire
