Above the din of
Yearning
Peace flows
Each memory
Reflecting
In a pool of gratitude

Cherish the good in all things
Let go of petty grievances
Honor your inner silence
Step forward in unwavering faith

Whatever you do
Do it wholeheartedly
Let your gentle spirit shine
Radiate your truth

Be patient
Be kind
Be generous

Laugh more
Celebrate your successes
Love others as you
Love yourself

Give thanks for the gift
Of sharing these
Precious moments
Together

Embrace your blessed life.

Each day consists of a series of moments that add up to your lifetime. Your life is precious and living in gratitude is the foundation to creating each moment as you would like it to happen.

If your life isn’t showing up how you would like it to or you’re struggling with your purpose, it may be time to start focusing on what’s going right.

Why? Because when you’re focused on what’s going right, you’re in vibrational alignment with that energy. Simply put, these feel good vibrations draw more wonderful things and experiences to you.

Have you ever noticed how people respond to you when you’re smiling and feeling joyful? Now, think of a time when you may have been feeling irritated or annoyed. How did others respond to you then?

Most of us can relate to the previous example. It perfectly illustrates how your energy creates your experience. Smiles attract more smiles. Or more accurately, the good feeling energy behind your smile attracts more of that same energy to you.

[Tweet “Living in gratitude is fundamental to thriving in all life experiences.”]

The most radical shifts I’ve experienced have been rooted in gratitude. Taking the perspective of thankfulness helps uncover the blessings in all situations. In other words, gratitude dissolves resistance and results in magnetizing what you would like to attract.

Perspective is a powerful word. As time has gone by, I’ve developed a deeper and more profound understanding of how my mindset impacts everything around me. I’ve learned that by turning my attention to a positive aspect of any situation, I start to feel better immediately which results in a positive outcome.

Gratitude is a state of being. It’s the awareness of the goodness around you that expands as you begin to appreciate the best aspects within each extraordinary moment. Surrendering to the moment connects you into the flow of gratitude and what is presently going on around you.

[Tweet “Gratitude opens a channel for joy no matter what is going on around you.”]

A Simple Exercise To Tap Into Gratitude

Here’s a simple exercise that will help you surrender to the moment and tap into gratitude immediately. By looking for positive aspects in frustrating or stressful situations you begin to establish new habits of appreciation.

Have you ever been stuck in traffic? Or maybe a long line at the grocery store? These are perfect situations to practice the art of gratitude. Or choose another experience that you find frustrating or causes you anxiety.

If you’re in traffic, turn your attention to appreciating your car that takes you where you want to go. Maybe you’re listening to a playlist and your favorite song comes on. Maybe you drive by your favorite restaurant or a park that you enjoy.

If you’re at the grocery store, give thanks for the food in your basket and the meal you will enjoy later. Maybe you smile at someone and they smile back. Maybe you look out the window and you see a bird fly by or flowers.

The possibilities for thankfulness are infinite. Find something in your immediate environment that evokes gratitude for you and put your focus on that. Notice how much better you feel as your gratitude grows.

[Tweet “Living in gratitude will change your life in ways you can’t begin to imagine. “]

Gratitude opens the energy of receiving and turns your frustrations into joyful experiences by placing your focus on better feeling thoughts. The high vibration of thankfulness is your most powerful connection to your inner voice and allows you to hear your guidance with clarity.

[Tweet “Are you willing to commit to letting go of old behavioral patterns in favor of gratitude?”]

It’s not a commitment that takes a lot of time, however it does call for awareness and a desire to create a new outcome. Creating quantum growth in your life requires commitment.

I have found that keeping a gratitude journal is helpful. Over time, your gratitude journal will provide proof of your successes, as your expanding appreciation guides you towards your ideal life and life purpose.
