What You Appreciate You Attract
There are in the world certain principles or laws that you can utilize to empower your life and bring into manifestation the fulfillment of your goals and objectives. One of these is known as The Law of Attraction. Many have taught about it.
Teaching the primary principles of The Law of Attraction is what the famous book by Napoleon Hill was all about. His book “Think and Grow Rich” was a bridge between business thinking and consciousness. Since the 1930s when he first published this book and the principles outlined in it, it has been the key to success in many lives. Reading this book had a profound impact on my life and my understanding of life. I suggest you take the time to read it.
One essential element in the Law of Attraction is appreciation. What you appreciate you attract. Appreciation and gratitude signal your mind that this is something good, this is something you want, this is something that you desire. Therefore, the act of conscious appreciation works as a powerful magnet to bring to you more of what you enjoy.
Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never ever have enough.
– Oprah Winfrey
In the simple act of appreciation is the activation of not only the Law of Attraction but also the dynamic potential of the principle that “energy follows thought.” These two dynamic rules, when working in concert, influence your life in amazing ways.
Your thoughts are powerful things. It is through your thoughts that you enter into your co-creator role with the Divine to manifest in your life. It is the meaning of the biblical passage “As a man thinkith, so shall he be.” Wise men and sages throughout time have taught these truths. They are not new. And, just as they have throughout time, they still work.
The challenge for many of you it to halt the negative self-talk of the monkey mind and not dwell upon the fears that you can generate faster than lightning to utilize and activate these “power of positive thinking” thoughts. Gratitude and appreciation can focus you mind toward the positive principles by their expression.
The advantage of expressing your appreciation and gratitude is twofold. Not only does it positively focus the attention of your mind on what you have liked and enjoyed, it makes the person to whom you are expressing gratitude to feel good and feel appreciated. So appreciation is not only a key element in making your life better, making your life manifest more of what you want and desire, but it is also a key element in right human relationships.
As I say this, however, there is a factor that I think is very important. The gratitude that I am recommending expressing needs to be real and heartfelt. The perfunctory of “good manners” expressions of gratitude do not have the power or the potential of what I am saying.
The world is full of people who are judgmental scorekeepers in their interpersonal relations. Making gratitude and appreciation further grist in their mill is working against the laws and principles of which I speak. Your mind is not fooled by a demanded or manners expression of gratitude. Your mind knows when you are expressing real appreciation and sincere gratitude and that is what will activate the underlying laws.
With gratitude and appreciation especially because of their dynamic influence on manifesting in your life, I suggest that you find the place within yourself where you truly feel gratitude and appreciation. It is in that spontaneous out flowing of joy where the magic and wisdom resides.
Your appreciation and your gratitude can be activated and expressed for a myriad of blessings and benefits. Each time you discover something you are truly grateful for you are actively working to empower your life with greater success and more joy.
What is interesting to understand is these principles are at work whether you use them consciously and with intention or not. Universal laws are not personal, they are just the rules. You can however, use them for accomplishing your goals and to manifest the life that you desire.
Approaching life with an attitude of gratitude is a way to dispel the darkness in your life with the light of joy.
– Genevieve Gerard
Approaching life with “an attitude of gratitude” has far reaching implications. When your mind and your heart are brimming with appreciation there is less room for fear or negative self-talk. As the darkness is dispelled by the light, these positive expressions diminish the fear. It is one of the many examples in life that by giving we are twice blessed, the one who gives and the one who receives.
Consider building into your life focusing your attention upon what you like, and then observe the results that just this shift in attention can create. It is a simple adjustment that can result in amazing transformation in your life, in your relationships and in what you experience.
You have nothing to lose and much that can be gained.
Namaste,
Genevieve
