Your Daily Dose of Gratitude ~ Day 538

Gratitude For Your Life In General

----------------------------------------------------------

For most of life, nothing wonderful happens. If you don't enjoy getting up and working and finishing your work and sitting down to a meal with family or friends, then the chances are that you're not going to be very happy. If someone bases his happiness or unhappiness on major events like a great new job, huge amounts of money, a flawlessly happy marriage or a trip to Paris, that person isn't going to be happy much of the time. If, on the other hand, happiness depends on a good breakfast, flowers in the yard, a drink or a nap, then we are more likely to live with quite a bit of happiness. (Andy Rooney)

Cherishing Your Challenges & Challengers

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you step onto the path of ascension/self-awareness, it may seem as though you are experiencing a dark night of the soul; however, if you learn your lessons well, you will see the justice in the tests and trials you have had to experience, for they have helped you to become the director of your own future while you are being nudged onto the path of self-mastery. The Soul-self is prodding everyone, to one degree or another, in an effort to get each soul's attention. No one can maintain the status-quo, coasting and drifting, and ignoring the call to awaken. You must either grow and ascend in consciousness, or sink deeper into chaos and limitation…

It is important that you not run away from unfinished business, but stay in your present environment (circumstances) while you are deciding what your passion is (or what your next step into self-awareness is). You must clear up the old business at hand. In other words, if your home life is in chaos, or if you are dissatisfied in the work place, there is inner work to be done before you can manifest harmony and balance in your outer world. Take an inventory and endeavor to discover what lessons are to be learned from each situation. Endeavor to see the best in everyone and consciously seek to make an attitude adjustment. Every person you interact with and every situation that is presented to you each day which makes an impact on you, contains a lesson to be learned.

The greatest thing that is holding everyone back from attaining self-mastery and claiming the beauty, bounty, joy, peace and harmony, which is the Divine Birthright for all humanity, is fear. Fear of failure; fear of the unknown; fear of success and of moving out of the `comfort zone' of your present existence… Many dear souls with great potential continually self-sabotage their endeavors, for deep within they do not feel worthy, and still harbor fear of failure. Each step on the ascension ladder must be traversed and the lessons/energy therein must be faced, overcome, and the wisdom of each lesson integrated. This is the way of self-mastery.

Cherishing The Moments

-------------------------------------------

We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand - and melting like a snowflake. (Marie B. Ray)

----------------------------------------------

Gratitude For Who You Are

-----------------------------------------------

Everyone has a purpose in life… a unique gift or special talent to give to others. And when we blend this unique talent with service to others, we experience the ecstasy and exultation of our own spirit, which is the ultimate goal of all goals. (Deepak Chopra, M.D.

What We Say, Be, & See – We Become

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Confidence is a habit that can be developed by acting as if you already had the confidence you desire to have. ( )

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Neutralizing Negativity & Preferring Positivity

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wisdom is the instantaneous recognition that a crisis is a blessing, and even greater wisdom recognizes that blessings can also trigger a crisis. When we truly understand that, we're less likely to be upset about difficulties or elated about opportunities; we remain centered no matter what happens around us. That is one of the secrets of self-mastery.

When you know that bad things aren't so terrible and good things aren't so terrific, you can be quietly grateful for whatever occurs. Balance is neither pessimism nor optimism. It doesn't lean to one side or the other, but sits poised in the middle. It is "gratefulism," and that is both wisdom and true power. All things are balanced, and when you know it, you remain true to yourself rather than being driven by your hopes and fears. You stay present on your path. (Dr. F. Demartini) - www.drdemartini.com

Kindness Is The Greatest Way To Display Your Gratitude

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The purpose of human life is to serve and to show compassion and the will to help others. (Albert Schweitzer)

--------------------------------------------------------

Daily Gratitude Affirmation/Intent

--------------------------------------------------------

Repeat this affirmation as often as possible throughout the "nows" of your day. Write it on a piece of paper and carry around to re-mind yourself

I am deeply connected to my life. I am deeply engaged in each moment as it comes to me. I am present and aware. I am.

------------------------------------------------

The Daily Phrase Of Praise

------------------------------------------------

(1) Apply this "phrase of praise" to all the nouns you encounter throughout your day. Write it on a piece of paper & keep it where you'll repeatedly see it & it'll re-mind you to remember to "spend your days in praise." You will feel yourself filling up with the energy of gratitude as you consistently use this phrase throughout your day. Fill your nows with "wows" by routinely using this phrase of praise.

I am deeply connected to ????

(2) Use this "phrase of praise" as a mantra in the "nows" throughout your day. Concentrate on your breath as you visualize filling up with the essence of this phrase and then breathe out and imagine releasing all that is NOT who you truly are – returning it to Source with gratitude, for all the lessons attained and the many strengths gained from the polarity initiation process of its passing presence as a chapter in your life. Now breathe in your next chapter, breathe in this "phrase of praise," turn the page and let it in.

<Breathe in> I am deeply connected <Breathe out>
