I would like to follow this title by saying that you also feel what you are thinking. If you are thinking negative thoughts like overdue bills, lack of funds, the feeling of "lack" in general, you will feel that in your gut. With the winter looming above our heads for us "northern folk" and the holidays on the horizon, It is a prime time for people to fall into a lull and be down in the dumps. I want everyone to at least give what I'm writing about some thought in order to curb this.
There is a plethera of self help books out there on the shelf today. Some of the more populare ones focus on the "law of attraction". If you are like me, you don't think that you need to explore any self help, but just need a booster or a redirection if you will. I have spent the last year reading and studying the subject about happiness, attracting wealth, and attracting what you want in life. I wanted to share with everyone some of the things I learned that could help us all out.
1.) Practice living in the now. You will go in the direction that you choose to go by efforts that you make today. What you did in the past is not who you are, but who you were. Be who you want to be today. Starting right now. If you believe that you are something, then you are that of which you want to be.
2.) Practice thinking positive. Look at the bright side of all situations. You will be happier. Try it. Eliminate doubt, and give everything a chance. No matter what past learned experiences tell you. Don't say "no way, that won't work".... Give it a chance
3.) Be happy now!! Feel good now!!! Life is what happens while you are planning other things. Find what you love to do and do it. Find your purpose in life, and put all your efforts towards it. You will be amazed at how much more satisfied you will be with life. Also, you might be able to make a few dollars focusing in your area of expertise.
4.) Branching off of number 3.... Find your life's purpose. Find what makes you happy. Put all your energy and efforts into this. You will never truly be happy unless you are focusing and doing things that are your own purpose. Each person's purpose is unique to them. A good place to start would be to ask yourself "If money, time, or bills were no object, what would I do?".
5.) Don't waste time worrying! Easier said than done I know. Worrying about things gets you nowhere, and is hard on your heart's health. I think Mark Twain said it best, "I have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened". Think about it..... We worry about things that we cannot control or never occur. Its a waste of time and energy. Stop it! Let things go.
6.) Like building blocks, your mind attracts alike thoughts and things. Magnetism... Law of Attraction... You think negative bad things, then more negative bad things come toward you. Think about positive things, and things that make you happy. More will come to you. The universe does not know how to differentiate. Like gravity, you throw something up...... No matter what it is, it will fall. The law of attraction states that it will attract more of what you are thinking or attracting in your life. It doesn't differentiate what. You do! Do your self a favor. focus on what you want, not what you don't want. You don't want more debt in your life, guess what???? You are telling the universe to bring you more debt in your life. You focus on debt (or whatever), then more of that comes your way!
I will keep talking about this more as we go along. If you need a reference point. Read the book "The Secret"! Its a quick read, and life changing. Be happy!
