I woke up this morning knowing there was something I had to do. Oh yeah! It's Day 1 of my LOA journey! Immediately I said "Thank you" out loud for being able to sleep in a bed and having a roof over my head. There are people out there who aren't able to say the same. I climbed out of bed and just kept saying thank you, thank you, thank you. In all of the books I've been reading, saying thank you out loud and really meaning it is a wonderful way to attract positive things into your life. The one thing that I've learned is to be grateful! I am so grateful!
On the way to work, I listened to The Secret on audio in my car. I let the words sink in as I turned into the parking lot. Being a Massage Therapist I have 15 mins. in between clients. In this time is where I clean up the room, change the sheets, and get everything ready for the next client. Today in between clients I thanked God for the clients that I had today. For one thing I was grateful to have the work but on the other hand I was grateful that they came in to see me to work out problems in their neck or back. They needed it! I was tested at one point when I had this one client who seemed to be fidgety, restless, mumbled when I asked intake questions and for a slight second I was about to say to myself "why me". Now I have to admit, I forced myself to change my thoughts toward this client and tried to feel for this person. Was this person in so much pain that she was acting this way? Is something wrong at home? After the massage I was sure my client was just going to roll her eyes as if to say "that's all you've got?" Well, I when I met her downstairs she told me she felt so much better, her attitude had softened and she actually flashed me a smile of relief. I was able to change a potentionally aggravating moment and turn it into one of kindness and sympathy. In the end, the outcome was wonderful.
Right now, I am practicing being grateful for all the things in my life. I am also working on trying to change my thoughts into something positive when it isn't heading in a positive direction. This is only Day 1 and I feel like I've made such a giant leap to a positive future. There are so many things I want to attract into my life, not just material things, but with circumstances and opportunities. I want freedom to live the life I was born to live. I don't need the most expensive thing of ANYTHING. But I do need to be able to give my daughter the life I dreamed for her before she was even born. If that means just going away for the weekend and not worrying about not being able to afford it, then I'll take it! The more positive thoughts I have throughout the day and the more happy I am will attract even more of what I want and need in my life. Like attracts Like. That's what they say! Before I go to bed tonight I am going to meditate and listen to soothing sounds. I'm hoping to attract wonderful, inspiring dreams.
Tomorrow is a new day. As the days go on, exciting things will begin to unfold. I know it will. It's just one of those gut feelings I get from time to time. Have a wonderful night everyone and I will do the same. ~ Suzanne ~
