Individuals with an abundance mentality are supposed to be able to celebrate the success of others rather than be threatened by it.[1] Abundance mentality is believed to come from having a high self worth and security, and leads to the sharing of profits, recognition and responsibility.[2] Organizations may also apply an abundance mentality while doing business.[3]
