November 2010
Dear Design Your Best Life Family,
Happy November!! I cannot believe it’s November already. October certainly flew
by and whew what a busy month for me. I apologize that I did not send out a
newsletter in October-I hoping to get back on track this month . November is
always one of my FAVORITE months. Although I thank my lucky stars at least once
a day for all the wonderful things in my life the month of November seems to really
put things in perspective. I spend more time reflecting on all the things big and
small that I am grateful for. Below is an article written by Eva Gregory that sums up
“The Abundance of Being Thankful.” I thought the article was very appropriate for
this time year. Just wanted to share. Hope you enjoy!
The Abundance of Being Thankful
By Eva Gregory, CPCC
When the pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, they were thankful. They had a vision
of coming to a new land and starting a new life. They were dissatisfied with their
lives in England and hoped that the harrowing journey across a relatively
uncharted ocean would bring them to the life they had been dreaming of.
They landed at Plymouth Rock where the real work began. They had to build
homes, defend themselves and forage for food, all of which had to be done before
the oncoming winter. Without food, they would die. Thankfully, the Native
Americans taught them how to grow plants such as corn. They harvested the food
and had plenty to share. Being grateful for their bounty, they sat down with family
and friends in thanksgiving for what they had received. Their dreams were being
realized.
Every year we give thanks, as our forefathers did those many years ago. We
spend time with friends and family. We eat until we just can't eat one more bite of
turkey. It is certainly a time to be thankful for everything we have as we look forward
to another year of abundance.
So why do it just one day a year? Are we only thankful for our abundance in
November? What about the other 364 days of the year?
The act of being thankful is an extremely powerful force. The pilgrims
remembered this and immortalized it with their historical meal. There may be
historical disparities of exactly what they ate and who attended, but one message
is clear and that is of being thankful.
We can bring the abundance of being thankful into our lives everyday by simply
remembering to thank the Universe for delivering what we ask for. This has the
power to bring even more abundance into our lives.
When we affirm to the Universe that we are grateful for receiving what we want, the
Universe responds by sending even more abundance to us. This is the Law of
Attraction at its best. When you hold positive thoughts and feelings, positive
experiences are attracted to you.
An acquaintance, Lesley, is struggling with this concept. She feels that her life has
been predetermined and that she cannot do anything to change it. She is unhappy
in most all aspects of her life. I asked her the other day, "Are you happy?" At first,
she tried to say she was, but quickly she was in tears. I explained to her that she
had many positive aspects of her life. I reminded her that she is at choice, and
everything in life is a choice. I explained that if she feels she is not worthy of
abundance, then that is what she can expect to receive in her life. If she can begin
to affirm that she is worth being successful, happy, and healthy, she can reap
abundance. It is her choice. I just know she will make the right choice and I can't
wait to celebrate with her when she can truly thank the Universe for her success.
So while you eat your turkey, remember that on Friday, you have the opportunity to
continue being thankful every other day of the year as well.
