In today’s troubled times when everything seems uncertain it’s easy to lose sight of what’s going right and falling into the doom and gloom trap. Getting caught up in the fear narrows your vision and zaps your energy.
We cannot create prosperity when we are gripped with fear. Prosperity can only be created when you are in vibrational resonance with it. One of the quickest ways to increase your vibration and resonate with your vision of prosperity is to love what’s present at the moment.
How often do you stop and recognize all the things in your life that are right? Most people spend far more time focused on what’s wrong. What’s missing in that picture?
When you consciously stop, appreciate, and focus on the good, essentially loving what’s there, you feel better, which raises your vibration. Energetically you become a better match for more good stuff to come into your life. As you tune in to what’s right, you’re more alert to notice when things are going right creating a cycle of feeling good.
Have you ever had a day that starts lousy, you get up late, the dog runs away, your car acts up, by the time you get to work you’ve reviewed all the things that are not what you would like them to be and you’ve decided your life stinks. Then you open your purse and you find a love note your 6 year old left you, you just melt and the day is instantly better.
That’s what gratitude does for you. One simple gesture can shift your energy from low vibration to a higher vibration. There are many quick and easy methods to help you love what’s present or adapt an attitude of gratitude.
If you like the written word a gratitude list, where at least once a day you add 5 things to a running list, or a gratitude journal would do the trick.
If you’re more the verbal type try saying 3 things you’re grateful for at the dinner table or before bed name 3 new things you are grateful for, for the day.
If tactile things are more your style try a gratitude stone. Find a small stone and put it in your pocket, each time you touch it think of the things your grateful for. This usually results in at least twice a day focusing on gratitude. Women may find it easier to use a key chain or bracelet.
The more you love what is and express gratitude the easier it becomes and before you know it you’ll be grinning just because the sun is setting or because your son actually put the orange juice away. These seemingly small occurrences can yield big results as you become a vibrational match to what you want to attract.
Personally I think it’s much more fun to love what is than scowl at what isn’t ‘perfect’… yet. And I’m pretty sure you get fewer wrinkles!
