THE MIRACLE OF GRATITUDE

Happy Thanks Giving

Today is truly a Miracle Day. People around the United States come together to celebrate with family, friends, and others and to give thanks.

How did this all begin. How did we begin to celebrate one day of thanksgiving?

This began as a journey in the early 1600's, a journey for "religious freedom"

September 6, 1620 the Pilgrims, and an unknown number of crew members, boarded the Mayflower to travel to the New World. The Pilgrims, also know as the "saints" and others, whom the Pilgrims called the "strangers". Their journey was successful.

March 16, 1621 an Indian named Samoset arrived at the settlement and frightened the Pilgrims until he called out "Welcome" in English. Although the Pilgrims and Samoset had a difficult time communicating, he did stay for awhile and even spent the night. Samoset left the next day and returned a few days later with an English speaking Indian named Squanto. Squanto taught the Pilgrims how to hunt, fish and grow corn.

Because of Squanto's help, the Pilgrims had a very successful harvest in October and had plenty of food for the upcoming winter. The Pilgrim's Governor William Bradford proclaimed a day of celebration and thanksgiving sometime in the middle of October. The Pilgrims invited Squanto and many other Indians to join in the celebration. The Thanksgiving feast lasted for three days.

And so, the journey of thanksgiving is a journey of freedom and when we are willing to take that journey we do create a new world for ourselves. A world in which we are enriched by sharing with one another, a world in which we give to another and receive the benefits of miracles every day.....a harvest of plenty.

Thanks giving is a matter of gratitude and attitude. Robert Emmons, Professor of psychology at University of California says:

"I think it’s important to stress that gratitude is really a choice. It doesn’t depend upon circumstances or genetic wiring or something that we don’t have control over. It really becomes an attitude that we can choose that makes life better for ourselves and for other people. When things go well gratitude enables us to savor things going well. When things go poorly gratitude enables us to get over those situations and to realize they are temporary".

Do you need an attitude adjustment?

OK, then begin today by being grateful for the small things in your life. I know that you have heard that a journal can be helpful and it can be, however, it is also a powerful tool if used on a daily basis. Take 5 minutes a day and write all the things you are grateful for. When we do this type of exercise we are filling our lives with thanks giving everyday and we are celebrating 365 days not just one day a year....and the results will be miraculous.

You can also sign up for 21 Days of Gratitude http://www.21daysofgratitude.com/.
This is a Prosperity group that I have been a part of for fours years.

I invited you to feel the miracle of gratitude each day of your life.

I invited you to take the journey to freedom, through giving of yourself with an attitude of gratitude.

Then watch the miracles begin.

Please let me know what miracles are happening in your life and if this blog is helpful to you.

Have a miracle week.

LIFE IS A MIRACLE

What can I say!!! I am in awe at how miracles continue to unfold in my life. Yesterday I had just another miracle day. It started out by attending Abraham Hicks workshop. Esther and Jerry Hicks http://abraham-hicks.com/ are credited for getting the message out about "The Law of Attraction". Esther was in the original "The Secret". It was amazing to be there with her and watch her allowing "Source" to work through her. I was so aware how effortless it is to allow the energy of the Universe to just flow through me and I thought, why have I not allow this to happen? It is happening whether or not I am aware of it....so why not become aware and be intentional....and it became very clear that that is what the Law of Attraction is all about. Being intentional and allowing. Be intentional in what I think, what I say and especially how I feel, then allow "Source energy" to bring about those things that I so desire in my thinking and feeling. Of course it takes action on my part....but the action is effortless in that I am guided. That is what inspired action is...being guided. There was so much more, I cannot even begin to remember everything that was said, so I made sure I ordered the CD.

Then I thought of another HUGE miracle. My husband was sitting next to me in this workshop. This is a man who was making fun of Esther, when I began listen to Abraham's tapes more then 10 years ago. It is interesting how the Universe works. Here he was someone who thought it was all "stupid", sitting next to me soaking it all up. When did this all happen? It happened when he saw "The Secret". There was Esther Hicks once again and this time it spoke to him.

It was so clear to me that "when the student is ready the teacher appears". The teacher is always there it is the student that needs to be prepared for the learning process. For some it takes time and for others it can happen over night.....rest to sure it will happen and the miracle is that we do not have to do anything about it. Just keep the focus on what we know we have to do for ourselves.

This is another lesson for me in how letting go allows for miraculous things to happen.

What can you let go of this week that will allow a miracle to come forth for you.

Be intentional in what you think, what you say, what you feel and how you act this week, and wait for the miracles to happen....because the truly will happen.

Have a miracle week.

ONE MIRACLE AT A TIME

Wow, times does fly when you are having fun. Last Sunday I was a Co-Host, on the "Women Are Talking Show, another miracle. It was a pleasant surprise because I understood that I was going to talk about "Money Coaching, instead the Host Peter Murphy introduced me as his co-host...

We interviewed Kim Papa from Ladies Home Journal, who wrote the article "Pump More $$ Out Of Your Current Car". The interview was extremely informative. One of the things I took away from this interview was that using the air conditioner while driving is better then keeping the windows open. Did you know that?

What came out this interview was an article that I wrote where I compare How to Pump More $$ Out Of Your Car and how to Pump More $$ Into Your Wallet. This article was a miracle because when I thought I was going to be talking about money coaching I wrote it for the show. Now I can use it for my website or send it out in my monthly newsletter, Attract-n-Act.

If you would like to receive my monthly newsletter please visit my website atwww.coachinginspirations.com

The big miracle that came out of meeting with Peter Murphy is that he invited me back again to talk about "The Secret". That is one of my favorite topics. How about you? What do you know about "The Secret". I would love to hear what miracles have happened in your life since you have allowed the Law of Attraction to work in your life.

By the way...I ordered another 500 million dollar bills. I so enjoy sharing them with people and I love having million dollar bills in my wallet. I am coming to be known as the "Million Dollar Coach....I kinda like that!!

Have a miracle day!
