We
know that everything we put attention and emotional energy on, good or bad,
will eventually show up in our lives. The universe, and our subconscious mind,
don’t know good from bad, and they treat fear and enthusiasm exactly the
same.
If we’re putting energy on it, we’re placing an order for it.
It’s
important, then, to be putting positive energy on what we want, not negative
energy (fear, worry) on what we don’t want.
Gratitude
is so important because it is a very high energy positive vibration of thought.
It is powerfully attractive! Wattles says it connects us with the Source.
Do
you see what he is saying? If we are grateful about everything, we are focusing
on what we want. It’s a way of making sure we are putting the highest possible
positive energy on our desires, and withholding energy from the doubts and
fears that we don’t want.
This
is the reason that almost everyone who teaches about goals insists that you see
your goal as already accomplished, and that you be grateful for it – now! It’s a powerful way to be sure you’re putting strong energy on the
goal – using gratitude.
You’d
think with gratitude so important that everyone would be conscious of it. But
what I’ve noticed is that many people are actually pushing away the success
they want without knowing it because they are violating this law!
This
belief leads to competitive thinking – the idea that in order to get what you
want, you have to take it away from someone else.
This
is a belief system that encourages fear and worry. Most sales training is based
on this idea. So are all wars.
How
easy is it for anyone to be grateful when they think that the universe is
designed to make things tough for them? Especially when their thinking keeps
creating situations where they get to be right about how tough it is.
Let
me show you how abundant the universe really is. Both science and spirituality
tell us that everything is made out of the same original stuff. Science calls
it energy. So how much is there to make more of whatever we need?
A
recent scientific survey of the cosmos added up everything they could find and
determined that only about 4% of the available energy was used to make the entire
universe! There’s 96% left over, or enough
for 25 more universes! That seems pretty abundant to me.
So
let’s choose a different way of thinking. We can see an abundant supply, rather
than scarcity. We can choose to create
our success, rather than compete for a limited
supply. When we do this, we cease to be a victim of circumstances and we begin
to reclaim our power over our lives! Seeing the universe this way is the first step
in the law of gratitude.
