Abundance League Manifesto
We believe that abundance flows from helping each other. That mutual aid, collaboration, and interdependence lead to abundance in all it’s forms – health, wealth, happiness, friendship, know how, great experiences, and more.
That scarcity is created by anything that keeps us from helping each other. That anything blocking increasing levels of cooperation cheats humanity of its full potential. That beliefs, behaviors, and social divisions that keep us from helping each other lead to poverty and violence.
That the purpose of our lives is to be of service to each other. That it is our responsibility to understand our unique abilities and passions, design a life of service that uses these for our own fulfillment and to the best advantage of others, and to find like-minded collaborators to advance our service projects. That this is not only our responsibility, but also one of the most powerful sources of purpose, meaning, and joy to do the work we were meant to do.
That it is our responsibility to improve the quality of our lives and others. That we should not expect someone else to do this for us. A better world is our responsibility and counts on our every action. That creating a better world is actually easy, counts on many little actions in our daily lives, and is something we can do now starting with those right around us.
That we have everything we need to create a better life and world within and around us. That when we act on our most deeply held dreams for humanity with humility, inclusiveness, determination, faith, generosity, honesty, and good intention, that we will be aided by those around us in the time and measure needed. That simple actions added up will not only result in a more satisfying life for ourselves, but a positive shift in world affairs.
