Most people feel hard pressed to give even a dollar to the person collecting money outside the grocery store for charity or to the homeless person standing at the corner near the traffic signal.

From Lack to Abundance in One Fell Swoop

I’ve been mulling over how one can seemly go from lack to abundance in one fell swoop. Maybe it’s simply a mindset, though, a change in perspective.
