Remembering to be Grateful

You know what seems to be the hardest about being GRATEFUL? Remembering to do it everyday. None of this Oh yea Im grateful stuff. It is very easy to make your list, read it and study it, repeat it and then feel like you have accomplished the role of being GRATEFUL in your life. Then stand back and wait for the goodness to come rolling in! NOT!!!!!

The truth is that you must LIVE from a place of gratitude. You must be grateful everyday and remind yourself to be truthful about the grateful items on your list. In other words, saying I am grateful for my job, is not the same as truly feeling the feelings of gratitude when you say it and then picturing what exactly in your job you are grateful for. Are you grateful for the ability to earn money? Are you grateful for learning new things ? For having the ability to grow and move up in your chosen career? Or maybe your grateful to have interesting people to talk to outside of your home.

Can you see the difference? That is KEY in being GRATEFUL and one of the simplest ways to get you and the universe on the same page.

On my personal grateful list, I am extremely specific, so when I read the list every morning and feel gratitude it is easy for me to emotionally get grateful. I edit my list often, because although the major items may remain, there are parts of my list that change as my life changes. Sometimes I am being grateful for something and as my needs and goals change I add a new item, or change an old one. For example: I was grateful for the smell of great coffee in the morning (that one is always on my list). But after having Hawaiian Kona beans, I have edited my list to reflect that specific bean as to me IT IS AMAZING. It may seem small but when I think of the smell of that specific coffee I AM TRULY GRATEFUL.

I am not just grateful for my spouse I am specific about what exactly I am grateful for and that changes as our relationship does. As we all know, what worked in our life this week, might not even exist next week. So it is important to constantly update your list. It keeps you in touch with what is really happening in your world. I also keep my old lists and love to review them to see how much I have grown and how much has come to me after I practiced GRATITUDE.

How about being grateful IN ADVANCE of what you have? This one is more difficult. Being thankful for the new car, the promotion, the fresh new paint in your bedroom. BEFORE you receive them. This grateful energy will show the universe that you understand the LAW OF ATTRACTION. Not only are you grateful for your current car and the ability to get where you need to go, but you are grateful for your NEW car (even if its just new to you). Thank the universe for what you have and for what you will receive. For as you know what you are grateful for you receive. TO BELIEVE IS TO ACHIEVE
