A Fresh approach to Personal Development in a Changing World

Here we are just one day before a nationwide day of thanks, giving and family gatherings.  Each and every one of us has much to be grateful for in our lives.  Here’s how you can put gratitude and giving into practice in 3 easy steps… 

 

123.jpg1. Be grateful NOW for everything you have in your life.  If you have a hard time feeling grateful, imagine your home, car, personal possessions, loved ones out of your life.  How does that feel?  Now feel grateful.  Remember to also be grateful for those things that you want in your life, whether they’re physically present yet or not.  Start every day with gratitude and watch as more things to be grateful for appear in your life.

2. Give freely on a regular basis.  Make it a practice to give 10% of your net income to charities and causes that you believe in.  If you can’t manage 10%, start with 5% or 2% or even 1% - just start.  The giving freely of money to others will bring more of it into your life.  Remember also to give freely of love, time, attention and all the other non-physical things that we all want.

3. Be ready to receive.  Acknowledge the gifts that come into your life with whole-hearted appreciation.  Thus the cycle begins anew.
