Small gratitude leads to huge abundance

8 replies
Have you ever stopped to ask yourself, "what self image do I project to the world and more importantly to the universe?" or " what are my actions and words actually saying". Today I'm speaking to you specifically about gratitude and how you express it. Do you project appreciation for the gifts you receive no mater how small or seemingly insignificant, thereby opening yourself up to receive more. Or are you projecting a low self-worth that says I don't deserve this small thing so please don't burden me with my total abundance. Now I don't believe any of us would consciously stop the flow of abundance into our lives, yet the way we express gratitude may be doing just that. How you ask? Well, have you ever received a gift from someone and said any of the following statements "thanks, but that wasn't necessary", "thanks, but you really over did it" or "thanks, but you really shouldn't have spent so much on me". The first thing these statements do is to diminish the effort the giver put into the gift. Secondly, these statements also tell the universe that your not worthy of receiving such a gift so please don't send any more. These statement are merely a reflection of our belief of low self-worth which when projected to the universe stops our flow of abundance. The flow can very easily be turned back on by accepting gifts and gestures of love, appreciation and simple kindness without any conditions whatsoever. By moving in this direction you will instantly improve your relationships because the people in your life will feel appreciated and the universe will see that you are open to receive all it has to offer to you. So starting now realize that you are worthy of all the things the universe provides to you and simply say "thank you" with no add-ons to the giver or more importantly to yourself. This one action will open you up to receive your total abundance very quickly.

To Your Success,
Mike

    Well, in Utopia it probably does. But seriously. The way that this world has become selfish, I don't consider this to be true. Atleast not widely.

    Good point. Just watch a young child receive a gift of a toy. If their parents have been modeling good manners, they will say, "Thank you." And nothing else, as they buckle down to some serious play time with that new object.

    Many times we receive gifts we don't want or need or like. It takes skill to mask this from the giver. But it is worth the effort. When the unwanted item has truly been given freely, not as an obligation of any kind, then it doesn't matter what the gift is. The real gift is knowing you are valuable to that person.
