Are you living by the principles of the Matthew Effect and utilizing the advantage your gifts and talents have aligned for you to receive?
In this episode, I share with you what the Matthew Effect is and I utilize its basis from a parable in the bible to teach you the five key insights that will help you move into the abundance that IS your birthright.
I was inspired from the idea of the Matthew Effect from reading Malcolm Gladwell's book The Outliers and I build upon his conversation that there are only certain people who have the propensity for advantage and shows you that it is all about if you tap into it and what happens when you don’t.
