Quick thought for you today inspired by a chat I had with a neighbor. We were looking at a house for sale, and she wondered aloud how anyone could afford such an expensive place. It reminded me of the difference between asking "How could anyone afford that?" versus "What does that person do to afford that?"

It's about shifting from a scarcity mindset to one of curiosity and abundance. Instead of judging or feeling limited, get curious about how people achieve success and reframe the question to "How can I make that possible?". It's a simple shift, but it changes everything.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

  • Recognize scarcity mindset thinking ("How can they possibly afford that?").
  • Shift to a curiosity/abundance mindset ("What do they do? How did they achieve that?").
  • Instead of judging wealth, seek to learn from successful people's actions and strategies.
  • Reframe the internal question from "How is that possible?" to "How can *I* make that possible?".
  • Your mindset dictates your actions; curiosity opens doors that scarcity shuts.

🧠 Pro Tip:

When you see something you desire (financial freedom, nice things, etc.), actively switch your internal question from "How could they?" to "How can I?". This reframes the problem into a challenge you can tackle.
