grateful

 

GRATEFUL= FULL OF WHAT IS GREAT! 

In order to become grateful, we need fill ourselves up with that which is GREAT!!  And if we fill ourselves up with what is great, our life becomes even greater! 

Look around and notice all that is great in your life and then celebrate it with more passion and enthusiasm than you thought possible!  Make a conscious effort to “fill up” on the things that are GREAT in your life at the present moment, rather than focussing on what is not so great and wasting time trying to figure out how it got there.  Instead of obsessing about your “bigger than last year” bootie, celebrate something that you love about your body.  If you have GREAT arms, hug yourself with them!  If you have a GREAT smile, share it with yourself in the mirror every chance that you get!  The more you focus on what is great, the more grateful you become.  

Get yourself excited this new year about all of the wonderful and bountiful blessing in your life and become filled to the brim with it all.  Forget about making goals and lists of all of the things that you don’t have yet, and instead make a list of everything that you do have and celebrate it.  Spend 2 minutes before your feet hit the floor each morning thinking about all that is great around you rather than stressing over all that is not quite as good as it should be.  Focus on your GREAT kids and GREAT husband instead of the all of their laundry that you have to do when you get up.  Or think about the GREAT opportunities that you have in this country to make some money instead of worrying about all of the debt that you accumulated this holiday.  Think about your GREAT life and celebrate it and you will be surprised at how quickly you become grateful!!  

I found this list of all of the quotes  from “THE SECRET” and find having it close by helps me to stay excited and passionate about being grateful.  I hope it helps you too!!   Happy New You!
