Scarcity vs enough


I grew up with the idea of scarcity. The fear that there might not be enough to go around, to last until the end, to give everyone enough. No matter how much there was.

You can't win with that kind of thinking.

But you can lose!

I watch my oldest granddaughter. Her attitude towards everything seems to be, "It will get done. There's enough of everything." She isn't easily ruffled, or swayed, or pushed, which can be a little frustrating, but actually works very well for her. She shuffles a full time job, four university classes, and a house she's in charge of.

Learning is a lifetime job.
