The Joy of Manifesting- Day 3

This morning I was jogging around the neighborhood with my step-daughter and a few things popped in my head.

  1. Nothing we try to manifest will happen unless we're grateful for what we already have.
  2. To be grateful for our current reality, we have to see it clearly.
  3. In order to see it clearly, we must be honest with ourselves

The easiest way I've found to be clear is by keeping a gratitude journal. I used to stay on top of that thing every week, but unfortunately my good habit dropped by the wayside due to my move. My step-daughter asked me yesterday, "Cristin are we getting settled in yet?" At first I giggled at her question because I thought the answer was obvious, but then I found myself responding with, "Sort of. Take a look at my office. It's still messy, but we'll get there."

Why she asked to begin with, I couldn't tell you, but my answer made me realize that our lives can sometimes be messy and unorganized, but eventually we'll get to a place where things come together and we find peace, even if only for a moment.

Getting back to the gratitude journal for a minute. By writing down everything we're grateful for, we create space for the upgrades we're seeking in life. We can say, "Today I'm grateful for the relationship I have with my kids", believe it and the energy in those relationships upgrade to something positive, consistent and stable.


Today's focus:

Being consistent with my gratitude journal so I may create more space for upgrades
