Daily Success Stories from ILLUMINATION
Abundance Mentality for Writers
1136 writers are supporting ILLUMINATION!

Instead of scarcity, I have an abundance mentality: When people are genuinely happy at the successes of others, the pie gets larger. — Stephen Covey
I am inspired by interesting observations made by Lori Brown, one of our prolific writers who submitted an informative and inspiring story about her view on ILLUMINATION. I think the title and subtitle of this fascinating story are worth mentioning as they relate to the message of the day: abundance. You can read Lori’s story from the attached link.
Our writers believe in abundance mentality. There is no scarcity on ILLUMINATION ecosystem. Our resources are rich with diverse content, prolific content producers, and avid readers. This same sentiment was shared by Desiree Driesenaar in another story yesterday.
We choose to collaborate in our ecosystem instead of competing with each other in this competitive world. We know that by supporting each other we can create synergy and produce more optimal results for our writing practice.
Our writers understood that extending and enhancing messages of other writers can strengthen our messages, amplify them, and can resonate better with our readers. I am pleased to notice that our diversity and synergy values are strongly embraced by our writers.
I am fascinated by exploring the interesting background of our writers through interviews. I completed a few more today. You can review the interview stories from the attached link.
We are on the verge of another milestone today. I plan to communicate it in my bulletin with detailed stats tomorrow. In the meantime, let’s check what our writers have created for our readers today.
