Oh, man, so good. My definition of abundance, and I'll break it down a little bit shorter, but I give a real, real, real good definition inside of the book. Abundance for me is just that, man, I have so much that it's an overflow that it's not just for me. Abundance is that there's an overflow of life, of love, of resources, of money.

That is, I can't, if this was the water, it has to be some other things out here to catch it. So when I feel as that, from my spiritual perspective, when God is pouring into me, it's overflowing into my kids. It's overflowing into my community. It's overflowing into my wife. It's overflowing into my family, into my friends. And to me, that's abundance.

When I have so much that I can't keep it all that I got to give it to everybody. And so I think what's blocking people from that is that we're not positioning ourselves to receive abundance. How do we position ourselves to receive abundance? That's easy. That's an easy question that I think that's not an easy question, but that's an easy conversation.

I think a lot of people will want a deep answer for it. Just wake up and say, I'm ready. Just wake up and say, you know what? I'm changing my life today. And I'm going to position myself to where I can do it. But if you're drowning in debt, if you don't have an emotional coach, a therapist that can get your mind fixed, you're never going to receive abundant. I was sitting down with a couple.

And this particular couple, Louis, made me cry emotionally on the inside. Because the guy said, yeah, man, no. He said, when I get my paycheck, I got to go buy a suit. I got to go buy something. He's in his 60s. And he's like, man, yeah, growing up, he's like, man, it was just so tight that, you know, I couldn't enjoy my money.

So now when I get my money, as long as I got a roof over my head, clothes on my back, shoes on my feet, food at my table, I'm going to enjoy having my money. I don't need this. I don't need it. We don't need all that. I'm like, yeah, you don't have an abundance mindset. He just had a very shallow mindset that, man, every check, you got to spend it on material things.

We don't need all that. I'm like, yeah, you don't have an abundance mindset. He just had a very shallow mindset that, man, every check, you got to spend it on material things.
And I understand that because of the season that he grew up in was that, man, we couldn't really enjoy our money. He had to give his money to his parents growing up to help them live, to help the family survive. Now that he has his money, he's like, yo, I have to buy something for me. And I'm like, yeah, man, I can teach you how to invest. Let your investments buy real nice things for you.

But for his mindset was, I don't need all of that. And I don't need to. He literally said this, my kids ain't getting none of my money because I work for it. And I'm like, yeah, that's not an abundance mindset. My kids will reap the fruit of my hard work. My community will reap the fruit of my family. My nephews, my niece will reap the fruit of me sitting at the head of my table.

And I got in the abundance position. not just abundance, but keep in mind, authentic is super important because when you are authentic to who you are, it opens up way more doors. And I think a lot of people are fearful to be authentically them. And for a while, I was fearful to be the authentic Anthony O'Neal because I allowed, and shut me up Lou, this is your show, but I allowed social media

to tell me how to think and how to talk. I allowed friends and peers to tell me what I should wear, what I should do. I allowed previous bosses in companies to tell me what I should read and how I should talk and how I should present. It wasn't until I said, okay, I'm going to be the authentic version of me. And if you can't handle me, then you're just not welcome at my table.
