Counting Your Blessings - Life Coach Exercise

Nice thread...
I wonder why there is still no replies here?
never mind...

But, there is one thing must do to...
Not just counting the blessing but, also you must share the blessing with others who needed it.

That's how nature work out.

I've been working on being grateful for the things I have and it does work. For me the hardest work I do all day is keep track of my thoughts. If they go south so does my day in a hurry. I've known this for a long time but have been to lazy or as Tony Robbins says in my comfort zone.

Good Morning Warriors I have to agree with your gratuity theory. I also spend a great deal of time trying to help others learn how to transform their negative thinking and stop sabotaging their selves with focusing on all the negatives and lack they see in their lives. Like you mentioned, the more you focus on what you don't want or the lack in your life, the more things you'll attract to yourself that you don't want or increase the lack in your life. Thoughts are energy that magnetize and draw forth likeness of energy. If all you do is focus on the negatives, then the Law of Attraction will present more negatives for you to experience. That is why positive thinking is so effective in helping to transform those vicious cycles into more positive ones. I firmly believe that positive thought creates positive action which brings forth positive results.

It's kind of like the old adage of "If you can believe it, you can achieve it!" This is truly based upon your own internal belief system. If you don't feel you'll ever reach your dreams, most likely you never will. But just the opposite occurs if you believe that you can achieve your dreams. You create energy in motion feeding more power into the fact you will reach your goals, as a result, the Universe will bring about positive opportunities to align with your desired goal and needs.

When disciplining yourself to pay attention to your thoughts, it is best to monitor what flows and adjust our belief to that statement as it comes forth. Such as, if you encounter a negative thought, counteract it with a positive affirmation each and every time you experience a negative situation, look around and see what positive things actually are occurring as well. This will help you to take the focus off all the bad stuff going wrong and puts the focus on all the good things that you do have going for you.

I find all too often people don't want to admit when they are being negative; but yet at the same time, they are complaining about everything going wrong in their life and what they don't like about it. Truth be known, this same person 5 or so years later will still be having the same problems if they do not learn to redirect their focus and thoughts towards more positive reflections of their life. It's a vicious cycle that most everyone comes to experience in life and has to learn, some albeit the hardest way possible.

Expanding your awareness into seeing things from a better perspective and outlook expotentially increase your abundance and your blessings in your life. Gratitude will go a very long way in regards to producing positive energy that will help manifest more positive experiences and opportunities in your life. It's all a matter of being conscious of your thoughts and taking responsibility for your own life and actions. We bring about our experiences based upon our thoughts, actions and beliefs. The same applies to those who have victim consciousness and automatically assume they are going to be victimized in some way. Their belief reinforces that reality and produces experiences in their life that usually lead to them being victims in some way. This cycle and pattern will never go away until it has been combated internally and the lesson learned basically.

We all have the ability and innate power within us to ascend above and beyond our limitations, yet the vast majority of those limitations are self-imposed due to our thinking and beliefs. And most individuals have been taught over their lifetime to give into difficulty and challenges and allow it to basically rule their lives producing more negative affects. That limitation can be anything from fear of failure to lacking confidence in one's own abilities to handle a situation or overcome limitations. The old way of thinking was closed-minded with only seeing limitations as being a roadblock or brick wall that is impassible with the basic notion to just give up or do nothing but dwell on those challenges further exasperating the situation.

With the rising awareness in society of the Laws of Attraction, the outlook is more open-minded and when a challenge arises, find creative ways to resolve the problem and move forward anyway despite how difficult it may appear. We used to be kind of forced to only see the box with it's 4 sides. Now, we're being informed that we can better manage our life experiences by learning to think outside the box. Thank goodness that we are expanding in our consciousness towards understanding the actual workings of universal energy and how it can positively impact and enhance our life.

What is sad is the fact that this knowledge has always been available to us and many ancient cultures and belief systems utilized this knowledge to create whatever changes were needed to the highest good of all who may positively be benefited all through the power of utilizing their thoughts and focus towards a desired goal. We are all apart of the same creative life force that makes up universal energy and because of this we are each able to be co-creators in our lives bringing forth the experiences we wish to have.
Tapping into the universal knowledge deep within ourselves is key to discovering the true beauty of life rather than wasting our energy and time dwelling on all the negatives and being miserable every single day. What kind of life is that? Certainly not a happy one. Thereby in recognition of the things that you do like and want to attract in your life you can transform your life into being an exciting journey filled with abundance and increased blessings to be thankful for.

A common technique among the spiritual community is to actually keep a gratuity journal of everything you are blessed with and thankful for in your life. This can be done on a daily basis but doesn't necessarily have to be. However, gratuity has a positively charged energetic pattern to it therefore the more things you're grateful for in your life and acknowledge the more positive things will manifest in your life to be thankful for. It doesn't matter how small or seemingly insignificant it may appear, count those blessings in every aspect of your life. In doing so, you become even more observant in your own life and recognize the influences that affect you and can utilize this to your advantage.

In most cases, if you sat down and wrote a list of all that you have in your life that you are truly blessed with whether it be good friends, a nice home, decent job or even thankful the person at the grocery store let you in front of them or you got the best seats at the movie theater, no matter what it is, you will probably find this list is overflowing compared to your list of what you are lacking or don't want in your life. We usually are more blessed than we realize, so use this to your advantage and see the ways in which the universe provides your needs. You may even be shocked when you really take the time to access your life and see what good things you really do have.

We only have the time in which we are living to enjoy our lives to the fullest extent. Why waste it with regrets of yesterday, dwelling and complaining about everything in your life and being unhappy? Ultimately, we are each in control of our own lives. It is up to us to make the most of it. When you're old in years and look back at your life, I hope that it will have been filled with many blessings, joyous memories and a lifetime of happiness. Start preparing now by changing your perception and looking at life through a more positive outlook.

Thought is a pure raw energy, utilize it to bring about positive experiences rather than creating chaos and discord in your life. It's easy to change your life by transforming your thoughts and focusing your energy on manifesting positive opportunities to bring about positive experiences for an enhanced quality of life and better state-of-mind, improved relationships and a whole myriad of other positive qualities. Great topic and thread!

I think it shows a lot of wisdom and maturity to count your blessing often and be content with what you have
