The Power of Gratitude

The reality is, gratitude is the most powerful gravitational force in the universe to pull things into your life that you desire to have. The moment you're grateful, you're successful already.

We live in a vibrational universe. If you're constantly in a vibration of discontent and lack of gratitude you're going to repel those things from you that you truly want and pull the things you don't want into your life. So, you know gratitude is a very, very powerful force in the universe.

Take my friend James Ray. The first two words out of his mouth when he gets up in the morning, regardless of where he is, are thank you. Then he starts to think about all the things he’s grateful for, every single day. There's such a long list of things.

It doesn't have to be the most, humongous things in the world either. There are just a litany of things you can be grateful for, starting with your eyesight and your health and your family and going on from there, so when you can get in that space. You know, anybody can be grateful after the fact. It takes a true champion to be grateful in advance.

He also says that to experience gratitude on a continuing basis you must understand and believe three truths. 1. Your current situation is great and getting better. 2.

Let's pretend that you won a million dollars, and you're going to get the money in 2 weeks. Well, you know it’s coming. You're not going to be worried and concerned about it, you're going to be excited. You're going to be grateful in advance.

When you're having a child you go and buy the furniture in advance with your spouse. You have the baby shower in advance. You buy the clothing in advance, because you know it's on its way. Well, that's the very same principle that you must practice when you're pursuing your goals, your dreams, your desires, your intentions in life. You've got to be grateful in advance because that's a sense of knowing that is beyond belief.
