Appreciation and gratitude as a way of life…
Developing an attitude of sincere gratitude for your current blessings unleashes the power for receiving many more. Every day you should try to give thanks. Feel appreciation and gratitude!
Developing an attitude of gratitude is one of the most important things that you can do for attracting and manifesting the things that you desire into your life. In fact, if you have a desire to consistently attract desired outcomes, it’s essential that you do!
That said, by being grateful for even the mundane things in life, you will feel a much more positive attitude within you. Be grateful that you can walk to your car and drive to work. That’s three simple things that almost all of us take for granted – walking, owning a car, and having a job. And be proud of yourself, also, that you have achieved buying your car and that you have a job. You’ve earned it.
The hardest arithmetic to master is that which enables us to count our blessings. – Eric Hoffer
Action Steps To Develop Your Attitude Of Gratitude
By focusing on and compiling a list of the things that you appreciate and feel grateful for in your life, you will actually accomplish a few extremely effective things at the same time.
#1 It allows you to bring into your conscious awareness the good things that are already happening in your life on a day to day basis. It will also take your focus off of what you perceive as the negative aspects of any situation.

#2 By shifting the focus off of only the negative aspect of a situation, you are able to see more clearly the positive things that can come out of a situation, which in turn puts you into more of a vibrational state that will attract the things that you desire.
#3 While you are doing this procedure, through repetition, you have allowed positive and productive scripting to be written in your subconscious, that will deliver to you, more positive and productive outcomes.
Technique #1 : The Mental Gratitude List
Mentally go over a list of things to be grateful for as you meditate. The reason this is such an effective method is because during meditation, your brain wave activity is lowered dramatically into an alpha state, which allows the affirmations to penetrate deeper into the subconscious portion of your mind, and has a quicker, deeper, and longer lasting effect with less effort.
If you are not into the meditation thing, you can also go over a mental list as you do the things that relax you, such as working in the garden, walking in the park, going fishing, or whatever other relaxation activities you enjoy.
You’ll find that doing your gratitude work consistently delivers results more quickly, and is much more effective if you can do it while you are in a more relaxed state of mind.
Technique #2 : The Written Out Gratitude List
As you use your Abundance Diary to record the things that you are grateful for, think deeply about each area of your life and begin to write in detail the good things that come to your mind as you write.

Make sure though that you are finding and writing down the things you are sincerely grateful for. If the emotion isn’t there, the result won’t be either.
Make a commitment to yourself that you will do this once per day and stick to that commitment. It doesn’t have to take a long time. Even five minutes is better than not at all. Put in the time that you can spare, but make sure you do it every day, in your Abundance Diary!
You’ll be pleased with the results.
When you are grateful fear disappears and abundance appears. – Anthony Robbins
When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. – Wayne Dyer
Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation. – Brian Tracy
The bottom line is that gratitude plays an extremely important role in beginning to consciously and intentionally create desired outcomes in your life.
Once you become focused on looking for things to be grateful for, you will find that you begin to appreciate simple pleasures and things that you previously took for granted. Make it your mission to fill your heart with gratitude today. This will be your mantra: “Dear Universe, thank you for everything.”
Gratitude should not be just a reaction to getting what you want, but an all-the-time gratitude, the kind where you notice the little things and where you constantly look for the good even in difficult or unpleasant situations. Bring gratitude to all your experiences, instead of waiting for a positive experience in order to feel grateful. This way, you will become a master of gratitude.
Choose gratitude for yourself. It will make ALL the difference. Every time you are grateful for something, you turn yourself into a positive state immediately. Whenever you are feeling down, find things to be grateful for and it will help you to feel better!
