Moderator:
    Hello, ladies and gentlemen, it gives me a great honor to introduce our speaker for today’s lecture, Dr. Bruce Nixon. Dr. Nixon, professor of sociology at University of Toronto, has written numerous articles and books on the issue of lifestyle.(16)His books have been published in more than eight languages in the world and won lots of popularity. Welcome, Dr. Nixon.
Dr. Nixon:
    Hello, everyone. Today, our lecture is about lifestyle.
    Abundance is a life style, a way of living your life. It isn’t something you buy now and then or pull down from the cupboard, dust off and use once or twice, and then return to the cupboard.
     (17)Abundance is a philosophy: it appears in your physiology, your value system, and carries its own set of beliefs. You walk with it, sleep with it, bath with it, feel with it, and need to maintain and take care of it as well.
    Abundance doesn’t always require money. Many people live with all that money can buy yet live empty inside. Abundance begins inside with some main self-ingredients, like love, care, kindness and gentleness, thoughtfulness and compassion. Abundance is a state of being. It radiates outward. It shines like the sun among the many moons in the world.
    Being from the brightness of abundance doesn’t allow the darkness to appear or be in the path unless a choice to allow it to.(18)The true state of abundance doesn’t have room for lies or games normally played. The space is too full of abundance. This may be a challenge because we still need to shine for others to see.
    Abundance is seeing people for their gifts and not what they lack or could be. Seeing all things for their gifts and not what they lack.
    Start by knowing what your abundances are, fill that space with you, and be fully present from that state of being. Your profession of choice is telling you of knowing and possibilities. That is their gift. Consultants and customer service professionals have the ministrative assistants and virtual assistants have an abundance of coordination and time management.(19)Abundance is all around you, and all within. See what it is: love yourself for what it is, not what you’re missing, or what that can be better, but for what it is at this present moment.
    Be in a state of abundance of what you already have. I guarantee they are there: it always is buried but there. Breathe them in as if they are the air you breathe because they are yours. Let go of anything that isn’t abundant for the time being. Name the shoe boxes in your closet with your gifts of abundance: pull from them every morning if needed. Know they are there.
    Learning to trust in your own abundance is required. When you begin to be within your own space of abundance, whatever you need will appear whenever you need it. That’s just the way the higher powers set this universe up to work. Trust the universal energy. The knowing of it all will humble you to its power yet let the brightness of you shine everywhere it needs to. Just by being from a state of abundance, it is being you.
    Hope you enjoy it. Thank you!
