DEVELOP AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE

The Law of attraction states that the more we are grateful for,the more we will receive.It goes without saying that we should work hard to develop an attitude of gratitude.

How do we do that? I can hear you ask. It’s really quite simple.We have a lot to be grateful for in our day to day lives,we just need to acknowledge the little things.Let’s start simply.Are you grateful for your home,family,pets,car or motorbike? Are you grateful for the computer or phone you are reading this blog on? Now you’re getting the hang of it.It really is easy to work on developing an attitude of gratitude.

TRY THESE SIMPLE STEPS 

  • Every time you enter a room,take a look around and make a mini mental list of all the things in the room you are grateful for.Simple things like the carpet you are standing on,the television,your furniture,your ‘special effects’.Wow,you have so much to be grateful for.
  • Start a Gratitude Journal.It doesn’t need to be a bound leather journal.Anywhere you can collect your writing will do.Each night before sleep,write down three good things that happened to you that day.Simple things like hug from your child,the smile from a stranger,someone paying you a compliment.

In your Gratitude Journal write down five things you are grateful for – a nice comfortable bed,a safe place to sleep – this is just the start of your ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE. Do thisceach and every night and review each morning.

GOOD RIDDANCE 2012!

There were many highlights in my year,however,2012 will go down as “THE YEAR JUDI STOOD ALONE AGAINST ADVERSITY AND WON!”

I endured every type of hardship imaginable – broken relationship,homelessness for three months,depression,unemployment,sick children,taxation and social security issues and a blown up car.

Quote of the Day…

“Love is the flower of life,and blossoms

unexpectedly and without law,and must be plucked

where it is found,and enjoyed for the brief hour

of it’s duration.”
