The Reason

Everything happens for a reason, you only need to keep on editing your attitude and gratitude so as to sail through. - Unknown I haven't felt like writing for a while. I could give you chapter and verse as to why, but in the end, it doesn't really matter. I just haven't felt like writing, so I haven't been writing. I don't have a concrete reason, I just haven't felt like writing. And yet, tonight, here I am writing and the reason for that is I am grateful. I had something happened to me this weekend which totally sent me over the deep end into the gratitude pool. That's not to say I had a bad attitude before or wasn't grateful for things that had happened, because I was. But right now, I am splashing around in that deep end of the gratitude pool and it feels good, and what do you know, I'm sitting here writing! Is there a correlation? Maybe, maybe not. I don't know, and you know what? I don't care either. I'm not going to dig through my psyche and try and figure out the why and why not of my not writing. I don't need…

Gratitude

Today's guest post is by Luke Goodwin GRATITUDE For me, this is one of the most powerful things that can influence every single area of your life and something that has completely transformed my way of thinking and also the way I conduct myself. Each day, I utilise something called 'The Miracle Morning' and within this I have added in an exercise called 'priming' by the one and only Tony Robbins. Priming is something that has completely opened my mind, allows me to channel my thoughts, create energy and positivity. While I am doing this priming exercise, which lasts for 14 minutes, there is a part of it that focuses on gratitude, and I cannot put a measurement on how much this has affected me. I didn't drastically notice immediate changes, but they were happening daily, just really small minor changes in my thinking, but over time, when I look back at my journal entries and how I used to conduct myself, I have realised how much, just spending a small amount of time being grateful, has impacted my life. It allows you to see yourself, other people and the world in a completely different light. It…

It’s all Part of the Learning Curve

I've learned a LOT about people and human nature lately. Sadly, a lot of it is very disappointing, and I am disturbed by the nature of people who profess to be caring individuals. They pay lip service to doing the right thing and their desire to help, but then turn around and do things that are so contrary to their statements. It saddens me, but I'm trying to put the lessons I've learned to good use. Again it's a case of realizing that while I can't control the actions of others, I can certainly control how I REact to their actions. I was prepared to write a scathing post, and publicly call people out on what I consider atrocious behavior, but at what cost? It's NOT going to change them, or impact them in any way, and it's only going to serve to fuel my anger. So instead, took some time and thought about their actions, and how they made me feel, and how they impacted me. Now, I want to thank them, because I have had a life lesson reinforced and I am growing into a better person because of it. P.S. I will be getting out a…

The Land of Truth

By Chris Cade

A certain man believed that the ordinary waking life, as people know it, could not possibly be complete. He sought the real Teacher of the Age. He read many books and joined many circles, and he heard the words and witnessed the deeds of one master after another. He carried out the commands and spiritual exercises which seemed to him to be most attractive.

He became elated with some of his experiences. At other times he was confused; and he had no idea at all of what his stage was, or where and when his search might end.

This man was reviewing his behavior one day when he suddenly found himself near the house of a certain sage of high repute. In the garden of that house, he encountered Khidr, the secret guide who shows the way to truth.

How to Solve Your Problems Pt 2 – Chris Cade

Last week I shared with you my perspectives on "How to Solve Your Problems," and I received some interesting feedback and questions. If you haven't yet had a chance to read that email, click here to read it on my blog. Today I thought I'd share how one of those interactions went on Facebook. Annette wrote... "What if the person or persons are toxic, blames everything on you, or is always criticising you (dumb, never be good for anything) or blaming (my problems are yours because you won't fix them or give me $). Is my perception of that wrong? If I view it differently what will happen? What about verbal abuse?" Those are interesting questions. Because we all are unique individuals with unique experiences, only you will know the real answers to those questions in your own life if you are able to completely view it differently (including both conscious and subconscious beliefs). One thing I have observed in my own experience... As I change, the relationships I have with others changes as well. Other people respond differently to my deeper sense of Strength, Courage, Willpower, Peace, Presence, Joy, Authenticity, and other qualities. Some people are melted by the…

What About Love?

I've been thinking a lot about love lately. What it is, what it means, what's it's like to have it, and what it's like to not have it in your life, and of course the different kinds of love. Lets start with the types of love. There is the love you share with friends, there is passionate love, there is romantic love, familial love and unrequited love just to name a few. I'm lucky that I have lots of love in my life. I have great friends, and I have two amazing and wonderful kids. I am rich when it comes to love. I've had passionate love and romantic love and I've even had unrequited love. And all of them are good. Yes, all of them - even the unrequited love. I had crushes on boys when I was a little girl. Boys who didn't even know I was alive, and I had crushes on movie stars and singers. Yes David Cassidy and Donny Osmond, I'm talking to you. And yes, as an adult, there have been people I loved deeply, with all my heart that just didn't love me back. At first, I thought unrequited love was a horrible…

Gratitude Rocks!

Expressing gratitude seems like a cosmic invitation for all kinds of thankfulness and appreciation to pour in. - Mary Anne Radmacher Gratitude Rocks! It really does. Gratitude is an open door to so many good, great and positive things! When you are filled with gratitude and are grateful for the everyday things in life, it just shines out of you like a ray of light. But it's also like a magnet, and when you're grateful for the things that you have, you attract even more great things to you. It seems to me that it's a pretty small trade off to get good things in your life. Be grateful now, get good things later. What do you have to lose?

Gratitude in Advance

Gratitude in advance is the most powerful creative force in the universe. - Neale Donald Walsch Gratitude in advance. What a concept. I find it hard enough to be grateful for what I do have, because what I do have isn't always what I want. Of course, if you're grateful in advance for what you want, you'll be in a better, more receptive frame of mind, and it will come to you easier! The question is, how do you become grateful in advance. Simple, by being honestly grateful for what you have. And when I say honestly grateful, I mean honestly grateful, not just paying lip service to it. Think about it, you may not have the house of your dreams, but do you have a place to live? So many people these days don't. Do you have enough food to eat, or a job? Take an honest look at your life and be grateful for what you have. Don't lose sight of the things that you want, but appreciate what you have with all your heart, and soon you'll find it's easier to be grateful for what is coming!
