Ok, what can you do right now to begin to turn your life around? I’ll tell you two or three things.
Start making a list of things to be grateful for. Start with that, because this shifts your energy, it starts to shift your thinking. Where before this exercise you might be focusing on what you don’t have, and you might be focusing on your complaints, and you might be focusing on whatever the problems are; when you do this exercise you start to go in a different direction, you start to be grateful for all the things that you feel good about. Gratitude is absolutely the way to bring more into your life.
Every man knows, that when his wife is appreciating him for the little things he does, what does he wanna do? He wants to do more. It’s always about the appreciation. It pulls things in, it attracts support.
I’ve said for many years that whatever we think about and thank about, we bring about.
Because that’s that feeling that you have to have, you know, and so for me, it’s been such a powerful exercise every morning to get up and say “thank you”, and then I start running through what I’m grateful for as I’m going to brush my teeth and do the things I do in the morning. And I’m not just thinking about that I’m doing some road routing, but I’m putting it out there and I’m feeling the feelings of gratitude.
