The topic of gratitude comes up often particularly at this time of year. My mastermind team suggested we cover the book The Science of Getting Rich
Here’s a paraphrased excerpt from one chapter:
We must convey our wants to the universe and relate to it in a harmonious way. The whole process of mental adjustment and atunement is summed up in gratitude. We must believe that there is one intelligent substance from which allthings proceed and this substance gives us everything we desire and we relate to it through a deep and profound feeling of gratitude. Living in thankful acknowledgement brings us closer in touch with the creative energies of the universe and our source and keep us from falling into competitive thought.
Gratitude can keep us from falling into the limiting thoughts of lack and hopelessness and keep us focused on abundance. Keeping your mind fixed on the best is to surround yourself with the best vs. dwelling on the inferior. Faith is born of gratitude andt he graeful ind continually expects good things and expectations becomes faith. Passing from the competitive mindset to the creative mindset is necessary in order to be in harmony with the the universe. A person must form a clear and definite mental image of the things he wishes to have , do or become and hold this mental image in his thoughts while beeing deply grateful to the universe for granting him all he desires. It starts with creative spirit of thought and gratefulness.
Riches can be defined as financial success, personal enrichment, friends, love, enlightenment or other forms of prosperity. Dwell in the realm of possibility and gratitude and shift your mindset from competing with others for limited quantities to creating a bigger pie for all; and you will be well on your way to a more energized life at all levels.
Take a look at how you perceive others in your industry – are they your competitors, or do you collaborate with them to create something bigger than either of you could have dreamed of? In the speaking industry we often collaborated and created bigger programs when we joined forces or shared ideas and expanded our universe. The same holds true in the fastest-growing business model on the planet – network marketing. It’s a team effort where you help others become successful. How are you perceiving your colleagues? Do you hold your future visions in your mind or are they on paper? Do you consider gratitude in your daily living? Are you ushering in creative or competitive thoughts…thoughts of lack or thoughts of abundance?
