Are you ready to make some changes in you life…?
This information might be just what you are hoping for…something to help you on your way. Something to stimulate you to create a more enhanced environment for your own personal development.
Extensive research has proved the dramatic effect that words, music, images and thoughts have on our life…so we already know how important these aspects are in creating our life the way we want it.
One of the easiest and most empowering way that I have come across to effect dramatic change in our lives is to change what we do in these areas:
what we listen to
what we see
what we say and
what we think about
What are you doing every day?
Do you listen to or indulge in gossip?
What about music with negative lyrics?
Do you read sad or depressing stories?
Are you watching violence anger and rage displayed?
Do you think mostly about problems (yours or other people’s)?
All of these things effect how we FEEL…and you know it!
Next time you watch the news on a commercial Television Station, ask yourself…on a scale of one to ten (with ten being the highest) how do I feel before I watch this and how do I feel afterwards?
How is what I am hearing, thinking, saying and seeing affecting my life on a day to day basis?
As you break down the individual components of that question, in the answer lies a new direction you could choose to adopt to effect dramatic change for your life.
How do you describe what is happening in your life to other people?
Do you complain, talk about the problems, dramatise your stories, blame someone or something else for the way you are feeling?
All of these things effect how YOU feel in every moment…and you know it!
The next time that someone asks you , “How are you today?" what will you say?
How will you talk about yourself and describe your day?
One of the easiest and most rewarding ways to answer that very question is in the form of an expression of gratefulness.
Here are some examples…I’ve had a really bad day, But I’m grateful that it’s over now.
I didn’t get all my tasks done, yet I’m grateful that I’ll have tomorrow.
I’m feeling terrible and I’m grateful that I’ll feel much better soon.
Are you getting the idea?
Because you have read this far you are probably expressing lots of love and gratitude in your everyday life already. Yet, if you’d like to be encouraged to adopt it as a daily ritual, we welcome you to come to ‘The Grateful Chain’ and have a better look at what we are up to.
But for now, I would love to hear what you have done to make changes in your life. Your contribution on this page might be just what someone is waiting to read about!
