Attract more of what you want in life

According to Rhonda Bhyrne's book/movie, The Secret, we attract more of what we focus on. This is a very powerful law. This is called the Law of Attraction. Remember this: when you complain or rant about something, you are attracting more of that same event in to your life. So instead of focusing on what you don't want or complaining about what you don't like, Rhonda Bhyrne suggests replacing it with gratitude.

Gratitude is one of the strongest ways to attract more of what you want into your life. Be thankful and appreciate all the wonderful things in your life and you'll get more of it.

Here's a little exercise that you can do: Get a notebook/journal and write down even just 5 things every day that you are grateful for. Do this every day and you'll see the big difference with how you see the world. When you focus on the positive, when you choose to see what you can be grateful for, the universe will start showing you more things to be grateful for. Do you get what I mean?

Try this: Look around the room where you're in. Look for everything that's brown. Done? Now tell me (without looking around the room) which things are red? Can you do it? No, right? Because you were focused on the brown. It's the same thing with life. If you are focused on looking for what's wrong (brown) then you will find everything that's wrong and never even notice all the good things (red) that are around you as well. So why not try the opposite? What have you got to lose? Try focusing on the good. Focus on the things to be grateful for and the universe will you more things to be grateful for.

You can try this great website to log your gratitude. Try http://www.gratitudelog.com. It's really a very positive community. You can post your gratitude and share it with the gLog community. You can also comment on other people's posts and even send them appreciation gifts. It's just an all around very positive, supportive and loving community. On the very first time I joined, I was already welcomed by around a dozen people. Try it out. :)


Be grateful.
