The Law of Attraction was there before we arrived on this planet and will stay long after we have left it. It is always at work whether we’re aware of it or not. But the thing is, when we become aware of LOA, we can make it work in our favor. and Design Our Own Life. Consciously.
Now, to make anything work in our favor, we need to make conscious efforts, do some learning, little unlearning, have belief in what we are applying and the determination to take action.
Let’s start with focusing on all the good things that we have in our life right now. Even if we are passing through a bad phase of our life (God Forbid), we still have a lot to be thankful for.
I feel that, somehow, it’s easier to emphasize on negativity than positivity. It may be because we have been programmed like that. Since our childhood, be it at school or at home, we were always told to focus on our weaknesses and improve them. It’s not wrong to acknowledge our weaknesses and if we don’t, then we will never grow or learn anything new. All we must do is acknowledge our strengths, blessings and all the goodness that fills our life before we make a list of our weaknesses, lacks and all the bad that is happening in our life.
With little practice, it is possible to turn our focus from bigger, overwhelming difficulties in our life to small, beautiful blessings that are numerous and always present.
The benefits of nurturing an attitude of gratitude are numerous. Once we cultivate this habit of being thankful for everything that we have, we will feel a shift in our mindset. It helps us in making the best use of resources that we have right here, right now. When we are facing a miserable situation, remembering that we have been gifted abundantly will empower us with positive energy and hope. Most importantly, a sense of gratitude helps us truly recognize the presence of Universe or Higher Power or God, whatever we may call it. Once we start doing it regularly, we’ll realize that the circumstances that disappointed or frustrated us, have started heading to the EXIT door.
On the contrary, by being ungrateful and not acknowledging the abundance we have been showered with, we block our door to receiving more.
If you don’t like where you currently are, start counting whatever you should be thankful for. It could be your health, your spouse, your kids, your parents, your house, your friends, your eyes, your beautiful face, your courage, your determination, your optimism, your smile, your special quality of making friends, having fun, bringing joy to everyone. And the list is endless. When you finish this list, you will feel that your mood has shifted from where it was before.
Write your blessings daily. Read them aloud. Give thanks to Universe. If you believe me, every day, you will have more to be thankful for.
Another good habit that we can cultivate along with Being Thankful is SHARING. Share a bit of everything that you have, share your experiences, share your knowledge, share your good fortune, share your abundance, share your success stories. Give some of your time, your money, your abilities to others. Because when we give, we open the door to receive more.
Its so amazing that the power of changing our circumstances is in our own hands and we keep blaming our job, our boss, our spouse, traffic, economy and government. Because blaming is easier than getting out of our comfort zone, taking 100% responsibility of our life and make the necessary changes. It’s easy to see the problems in our lives. They’re like mountains. But sometimes we overlook the smaller things and not notice how truly beautiful they are.
