SPARK: The Hidden Ingredient Behind Every Success Story
Hint: It's not motivation, consistency, or manifestation...

Abundance Mindset: Spark
You’re currently reading The “Spark” edition of Abundance Mindset. In this segment of the newsletter, I share a reflection, framework, or story pulled from my own life. It’s designed to help you think differently, take action, and stay inspired along your journey.
FRAMEWORK SPOTLIGHT
The Thing You’re Missing Isn’t Motivation…

I really don't think this missing piece has connected for most people...
When you truly want something, you have to be obsessed with it.
Consistency is 100% a form of obsession.
Dedication is 100% a form of obsession.
Manifesting is 100% a form of obsession.
When you stop and really think about it…all roads lead back to obsession. 👀
ob·ses·sion (noun):
a persistent disturbing preoccupation with an often unreasonable idea or feeling.
synonyms: fascination; preoccupation; fixation; mania; enthusiasm
In other words, obsession is an intense, persistent focus on a single idea or pursuit, where your thoughts, actions, and energy revolve around making it real.
One thing that clicked for me a while ago is this…
if you're not obsessed with the thing you're working on or working towards, I'm afraid you may never see that thing out in the world, because no one will be as tied to the outcome as you.
So what does obsession actually look like in practice?
(Let's make it fun... Give yourself a point for every phrase that describes you.)
You're usually obsessed when:
✅ You think about it constantly, not out of anxiety, but with excitement.
✅ You rearrange your life around it.
✅ You get back up every time because not pursuing it isn’t an option.
✅ You study, tweak, test, try, fail, and repeat, because it matters that much.
✅ You keep showing up, long after others have gotten bored, distracted, or scared.
This message is loud and clear for anyone looking for a sign. You don’t need more motivation, lessons, or manifestation… you need more obsession.
And if you want to see what this looks like in real life...
No one exhibits this energy quite like my girl Hailey Bieber. I made a delulu blueprint inspired by the moves she makes. Use it as a starting point.
