Being Grateful

One of the most important elements of the Law of Attraction is being Grateful and Thankful for what you have right now.

It’s easy to look around and find something wrong with what’s happening right now.  It’s easy to be dissatisfied with the current status-quo.  But when you stop and find reasons to be thankful for what you have right now.  Where it’s a person, your current job, people, or the things you own.  The Law of Attraction is able to work better for you.

When you work at being thankful and grateful for what you have in your life right now.  It puts you into a higher vibration.  In simplistic terms it’s like shooting off a flare gun to draw attention to where you are.  So start simple.  Find five things you are grateful for today.
 

1. I am so Thankful and Grateful for my notebook computer.
2. I am so Thankful and Grateful for my wonderful car.
3. I am so Thankful and Grateful for my Mom and her sage advice.
4. I am so Thankful and Grateful for my warm and comfortable bed.
5. I am so Thankful and Grateful for my older brother and his great sense of humor.

What are some of the things you are Thankful and Grateful for?

If you’re like most people you’ve heard about the Law of Attraction.  You may have purchased a book or two.  Chances are you know about the book “The Secret” and may have even watched the DVD.  What you may or may not have realized is you are already using the Law of Attraction.

The Law of Attraction is not magic.  It’s not some fancy system or technique.  It is not a religion.  It is not “New Age”.  It’s something we do everyday of our lifes.  It how we choose to think, believe and view the world around us.

Have you ever achieved a goal?  Has an old friend you’ve lost contact with called you out of the blue?  Have you ever wished so hard you couldn’t imagine not getting what you wanted?  Have you ever prayed?  This is all the Law of Attraction in action.  You are using it everyday whether you are aware of doing it or not.

After reading numerous books and purchasing several programs that guaranteed to tell me how to do it.  I was left with more questions than answers.  I would receive an email from one of the gurus and feel compelled to read it.  Problem was the gurus were doling out information in tiny little bits.  It was all designed to get me to purchase one more program guaranteed to teach me how to be successful.

I’ve learned a lot working through these programs.  However, for all the benefits I learned more from “The Complete Idiot’s Guide to the Law of Attraction” than all the programs put together.  What I learned from this book is the Law of Attraction has many levels to it.  What we do unconciously has an impact on our life.  After getting the book and getting a solid education in the Law of Attraction I’m moving forward into the future.

There are many books written about the Law of Attraction.  If you surf the net or even browse book stores you will find a ton of information.  But to make it work it requires one thing, vision.  Nothing is going to really change without a vision or idea of where you want to go.  If all you’re doing is just surviving; getting by; making ends meet.  Chances are there isn’t going to be any real change.

Read any of the books on the Law of Attraction and it will tell you to focus on the prize.  Know what you want, believe you have it and then let yourself receive it.

The one problem with this is figuring out what you want.  Stuff is always nice.  I wanted an iPod.  I focused, I believed and I received an iPod.  I’m a gadget geek.  Getting an iPod was good!  But in the long term stuff is just stuff.  Stuff requires room to store it.  After awhile there can be too much stuff and not enough room.

The Law of Attraction states what you think, (your mind set) creates your reality.  Therefore if you focus on what you don’t have, or don’t have enough of, this is what you are creating for yourself.  So the question is what is the vision for your life?  Where do you see yourself in 5, 10 or 20 years from today.  Are you better off than today, or worse?  Will you believe the news media and see only doom and gloom in your future?

The Law of Attraction offers unlimited possibilities.  It all boils down to what you want for your life.  Don’t make the mistake of trying to change someone else’s life with the Law of Attraction.  Trust me, it will blowup in your face.

We are all on our own Journey.  The Law of Attraction lets you plot your own course.  Choose your destination.  You can change it anytime you like.
