The True Secret!

Today while surfing a site about personal change, I came across this from Dr. Wayne
Dyer:

“When you change the way you look
at things, the things you look at change.”
— Wayne Dyer: Self-development author and speaker

Everytime I see this I am reminded of the power of our thoughts and intentions.
As a teacher I find myself sometimes with a “difficult” class and when I get real about it,
I often come to the conclusion that if I changed how I saw them, maybe they would
have a different class attitude. Oh, the days I have a “flat forehead” moment and remember
how powerful intention really is!

Yep, set an intention, get a result. Fuel that intention with emotion and desire. Watch
it launch…then, reap the harvest. Think about it.
Blissfully yours,

Cultivating the Attitude of Gratitude

Two days before the Thanksgiving holiday and I am filled with gratitude on so many levels!
It’s supposed to be a day of gathering friends, family, and to take time to think about what we are grateful for. Gratitude is one of the most uplifting of spiritual feelings one can have. Without it, we have no focus and our desires tend to sit on the fence. Gratitude helps us launch our desires, and allows us to spend time in a place of peace and contentment. It’s said that before we sleep each night we should think of the things we are grateful for…sounds like a great idea!
One tradition we have in our family at Thanksgiving is the “Thank You” box. We write down
anonymously the things we are most grateful for and put them in the box. Then, after we have stuffed ourselves with turkey, pie, etc we read these. There is always something unexpected; I wonder what will be said this year? Especially when the focus as of late has been on LACK rather than the simple ABUNDANCE that is all around us….hmm…

So be in the place of gratitude this holiday and every day of your life! I ask…what is the alternative?
Blissfully yours, Julie
