Have you heard about "The Secret"? It's is about the law of attraction.
Like a magnet, the thoughts and images held in one's mind determine what is attracted to them and, ultimately, the quality of life they live.
For example, go anxiously through the day with a negative loop of thoughts in your mind, anticipating bad things will happen, and they will. Approach that same day with positive thoughts, anticipating good things, and they'll be drawn to you.
A large element of "The Secret" is to be thankful about what you already have. By giving thanks, you attract more good positive things in your life. You're telling the Universe what you like and the Universe in turns knows what to give you.
Here are 10 things that I'm thankful for:
- Friends and family that get me
- An exciting and changing career
- Travels across the globe to interesting places
- A good education and speaking different languages
- A comfy home with a good kitchen
- Money in the bank
- Growing up on a farm
- Living in a city
- My sense of adventure
- Today is the first day of Spring
I start each day by expanding on this list. I have to admit, it makes a world of difference to the rest of my day. I notice the good instead of the bad, and as a result, more good comes to me. So this "Secret" thing just might be working.
