Be Grateful
Creating a life of abundance for yourself is simple if you remember the magic words: "Thank You." It's important to be reminded of how much we all have to be grateful for and to make that "attitude of gratitude" a part of our daily lives.
Now, you might say, "What does being grateful have to do with abundance? And maybe I don't feel like I have much to be grateful for. I'm not a millionaire. I don't have a job. I hate my life ........." The list could go on but you may notice something else about that list. It consists of everything that you don't have or you don't like. That's called focusing on a lack. And it's a rule of the Universe that you create more of what you direct your focus on. So, by focusing on what you don't have, you're simply creating more 'lack'. It's just like adding a positive number to a negative number – you will always get less than what you started out with.
I'm talking about giving thanks for what you do have and the fortunate experiences of each day. You can start small. For example, maybe you got a seat on the bus or train this morning on the way to school and didn't have to stand. Maybe the weather forecast said rain but the sun came out. Or even if you're unhappy in school, at least you are attending one! And then, of course, there are the people in your life. You can be grateful to have the love and support of a sibling or mate or circle of friends or relatives. And don't forget the unconditional love of a pet.
There a saying, "Give thanks for a little and you will find a lot." And that is just how the Universe works. When you focus on and express your thanks for what you do have and the joy and love already in your life, the more abundance, joy and love you will create in your life. Why not take some time at the end of each day to jot down a few things that happened that you were grateful for. You can call it your gratitude journal. You will be surprised at all of the entries you can make when you take time to think about it. You are already blessed and will only be blessed more when you have a grateful heart.
Always remember to give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way.
