Gratitude = Abundance

Hello my Friend,

I have a gratitude app on my phone and every morning I get a quote focusing on gratitude. There are those that I read and forget about and there are those that I want to remember so I take a screen shot and save them.

The one that came this past Saturday was “Acknowledging the good that is already in your life is the foundation of all abundance”.

I have been practicing gratitude for several years now. It all started one day after I was told by someone very close to me that I was the most miserable person they knew. The worst part…they were right. When I got over the hurt and anger and I was able to understand why they said what they said, I realized at that time, I had to make some personal changes.

I realized I was expecting them, and my world around me, to make me happy.

FYI, that doesn’t work. So I found a journal (which I still have) and each day I wrote 3 things that I was grateful for. Those 3 things over time grew to 10 things. That was the beginning of my path to loving myself. A path that I am on for the rest of my life.

It ALL started with gratitude. To this day, I still write 3 things that I am grateful for, and I have added 3 things that I am praying for, AND 3 things that I desire. This practice has helped me in my personal life and my work/business life.

My hope for you this week is to focus on all the good in your life and allow for the abundance to flow and create the positive changes you desire.

“Sometimes the only thing that changes in a situation is you. And that is enough to change everything.”

In my case, that was true. May it be the same for you!

Love to you!
