How Do We Create the Positive Blessings in our Lives?

Number One, numero uno, the prime first step: GRATITUDE

The first thing you must do is to be grateful. It can be something small or grand.

What we are looking for is achieving a feeling of constant gratitude about life.

Something my husband is always grateful for football season! He loves football! He gets excited in July just counting the days to the pre-season. He smiles and has a new lightness about him. Even if his team loses a game, he’s happy he got to watch football.

If you are not feeling very happy at this moment, think – what do you have to be grateful about?

Do you have a full belly? A roof over your head? Access to an abundance of knowledge or opportunity? A pet who brings you joy? Family? Friends? Hobby?

Create a feeling of joy and the energy of Gratitude.

Fake it if you must “until you make it” until its genuine FEELING becomes your very nature — the very energy that brings you blessings as you carry that feeling within you every day.

What Brings You Joy?

Because what we want to do above anything else is to feel Joy.

With Joy (brought on by gratitude and other positive thoughts) we align with the Positive Energy which creates our highest good.

You may think you are stuck in a job, stuck in a marriage, stuck in a town … but you are not stuck. You simply have to change your thinking. Not with positive hocus pocus — no– with a gratitude that brings about the feeling of Joy –  and with that feeling nature you can begin to see and create miracles in your life.

And who knows?! Maybe that which you are unhappy about will change on its own… without effort on your part.

Your Life = 24/7 Bliss

Simply focus on the feeling of joy (sometimes music will help.  I love the Rascal Flatts Song “Feels Like Today” – it gets me into a feeling vibration and I can  keep there for longer periods of time each day.

And from that feeling… before you know it… there’s sudden Good Fortune.

People will move in and out of your life (sort of like a reshuffle of the card deck), people who irritate you will change towards you (or your perception will change toward them!)

Experience abundance, healing, love, joy and Bliss by taking the first step: Gratitude.

And if you cannot feel Gratitude, perhaps you need to work on: FORGIVENESS

Thank you God, Thank you for all of the rich blessings in my life. I am grateful for all of my good fortune, abundance, healing, joy and bliss in all areas of my life.
