Be
Grateful |
The cornucopia that
is your life is full. In fact, it has
the potential to overflow with so much
good fortune you would never again have
to worry about having enough.
How do you get your cornucopia
overflowing? Be grateful for what you
have today.
Magic happens when you express your
gratitude for what you have today.
That’s because what you focus on
expands. If you focus on what you’re
lacking, you’ll notice more of what you
lack. In fact, you will create more
lack. But, if you focus on your
blessings, no matter how small they seem
today, you will begin noticing more
blessings. In fact, you will even create
more blessings.
If you’re in a tough place right now it
may not seem possible to find something
you can be grateful for but I ask you to
try. Start with simple but obvious
things to be grateful for such as your
ability to read this article.
Each day find at least five things you
can be grateful for and write them down
in a journal or notebook. Add to your
list each day and at the end of one week
look back over all your blessings. What
do you notice? Did it get easier with
time? Were some days harder than others?
Were there days your whole life felt
like one big blessing? Did you start
feeling better about your life and your
potential? As a person that is
“blessed”, how do you view your future?
Be grateful for this life you have.
Acknowledge your blessings, even on days
when it feels like none exist. Shift
your attention away from your worries
and put your attention on what is good
about your life. There is something,
perhaps many things.
Expressing your gratitude on a daily
basis is a simple action that has the
power to improve your life.
“Think about it. The more grateful
people are for the gifts we give them,
the more inclined we are to give them
more gifts. Their gratitude and
appreciation reinforces our giving. The
same principle holds as true on a
universal and spiritual level as it does
on an interpersonal level.” -- Jack
Canfield & Janet Switzer, The Success
Principles.
