Good Things to Do

I have been feeling ready to move forward in my life.  Ready for new challenges and a new approach.  And I have been working on moving forward without paying attention to all of the gifts that I have had already in my life.  Just wanting more!

I was lucky enough that the Universe sent me “The Gratitude Effect” by Dr JF Demartini, who featured in “The Secret”.  In the early pages, I was reminded that gratitude is not only about appreciating those things that have gone well for you, the warm and fuzzies, but is also about appreciating those that have not been so great and the obstacles that you have overcome to get where you are.

With that in mind, I went back over some of my “not so greats” and I am amazed at how easy it was to see the gains that came from them.  When Owen and I talked them over, we realised that there is actually lots of love surrounding some of the episodes in our lives that we thought were just lots to hate.  This experience brought about major peace for me regarding incidents that I had thought I was well reconciled to.

Even though I had studied this idea in the Beyond Freedom personal development program, of which I have been a student for for 4 months now, it was not until I read it in The Gratitude Effect that it really came to life for me.  Nice how I attract just the right thing at just the right time.

Amazing opportunities exist in this world for anyone who has the faith to go and find them.  I am, you can too.
