Good day and I hope you are having a great day. I have been taught, have experienced, and
teach that gratitude is the greatest and fastest way to get what you want. Yet I still find people who ask, A.J. how can
I be grateful when everything is going down the toilet? As I am writing this,
the U.K. exited the EU, there are floods in South Western part of the United
States, AND The Dow Jones industrial average has lost over 600 points. Do you
know what else I saw? I saw an exert of Anthony Robins’ seminar where he said
if you are living in the United States, you are in the top 1% of the all the
earners in the world. Did you hear that? In the world.
He was NOT talking about the Donald Trump, or Bill Gates.
He is talking about the average American.
We may think that we have it tough and I am not by any means making
light of the plight of many people who are suffering, but when you think about
it in the global scale, there are millions of people who live in conditions and
situations that are really unthinkable.
Imagine living on $1.40 per week. That would not even cover your coffee
at McDonalds, let alone Starbucks.
Why am I bring up what looks like doom and gloom? I am not.
I am setting up the context to show you that where ever you think you are now, and how
bad it maybe, there are millions of people around the world that do not have
the fraction of the comforts you have, and yet are more grateful for
those little things that we are here in the U.S. with the freedoms, and conveniences
that we have. I am also not intending to
make you feel bad. Because we all know when we send out the vibration of
feeling bad we attract more of the opportunities to feel bad. So I want you to
stop right now, and write down 3 things you are genuinely grateful for. Stop and get into the feeling of gratitude
for just 2 minutes. Take something
important. The fact that you have eyes to read this blog is a really good
one. The fact that you have internet.
The fact that you are healthy enough to be here. The fact that you have loved ones. The fact that you love someone. All these
things are wonderful examples of things we can really feel great about.
Most people think MISTAKENLY that The Law of Attraction (LOA) AND Success journeys are a straight line process from
start to your goal. It is not. That is a
good thing too. You will be taken
thought filters to make sure what you want is actually what you want. The
process also makes you a stronger and better person at the end of it. Be grateful for the ups and downs you go
through visualizing your desires. Many
people go up and down for nothing at all and you, by the mere fact that you
know about LOA are learning and gaining from it.
I hope this makes sense to you and please feel free to share
this week’s brief post. I have written
about Gratitude before, and I want to remind you that there is nothing more
important and nothing is easier to get you on the higher vibration. So practice gratitude often, and pass it
forward by teaching people to be grateful.
