You don't attract what you want. You attract what YOU ARE - who you are BEING.
"The world is a great mirror. It reflects back to you
what you are. If you are loving, if you are friendly, if you are
helpful, the world will prove to be loving and friendly and helpful in
return. The world is what you are." - Thomas Dreier.
In other words, you don’t merely attract those things that you hope or
wish for; you attract the people and circumstances that match how you’re
operating and showing up in the world. Most of us chase after things
and few of us naturally attract the good stuff that we truly desire
until we start living a life that feels most appealing to us, and until
we start being more like the things we want to attract. For
example, if you want more happy experiences to come around, be happy. If
you want to encounter more kindness from people, be kind first. If you
want more respect from others, be respectful.
Fall in love with your life and you will be attractive to others. And the more attractive you become, still others won’t be on the same page and will resist your happiness, but that’s okay too. They’re just not there yet.
It’s a mistake to think your life has to be
problem free before you can feel happy and peaceful. The opposite is
actually true. First you work toward joy and serenity and then your life
challenges lessen and disappear. Most say, “When I reach my goals, I
will be joyful.” But you must be joyful first. You must start with the
determination that you will settle for nothing less than feeling good.
And when you first seek joy, all else that is good follows. It’s not the
other way around. You can feel joyful or serene even in the midst of
turmoil.
Principle of Joy - When you feel good, you attract and manifest even more good. Joy is very attractive.
Tips: Radiate joy from the inside out. Let yourself feel good no matter what is happening around you. Allow yourself to sparkle and shine.
Question: Have you taken your life too seriously? How will you let yourself have fun again?
Affirm: “I am joyful now.”
Let this simple affirmation travel from your
head to your heart – which can sometimes be a very long distance. It may
take a little practice, because you must allow yourself to feel it too!
Try This: Try taking just a few
minutes to be fully present with someone today and share a moment of joy
with them. Smile more often and find at least one person to laugh with
--see what happens.
And you know what, it's FUN to share your JOY!
