NOTE: This is one of 10 holiday gift ideas for enriching your own life, and/or that of others, in myriad ways. Goal: To redefine what it truly means to prosper -- now, in 2008, and well into the future.It's no secret that we're big fans of Rhonda Byrne's best-selling self-help book, "The Secret." For this revolutionary endeavor, producer-author Byrne assembled dozens of masters in several fields -- e.g., metaphysics, psychology, spirituality, finances, entrepreneurship -- to address the power of the Law of Attraction. Since last year's release of the DVD and book, these "teachers" have inspired millions of people across the globe.
Now, there's a 2008 calendar and a journal, called "The Secret Gratitude Book." This elegant, limited-edition, hardcover book -- replete with a magnetic flap to afford its owner with a certain modicum of privacy -- delivers additional insights and affirmations regarding the Law of Attraction, plus the importance of expressing gratitude for life's daily blessings. Each day, you'll be able to record what you're currently grateful for and have the opportunity to align with your Gratitude Intentions.
James Arthur Ray Promotes "Thanks Living"
In the Thanksgiving 2007 issue of his weekly "High Velocity" newsletter, James Arthur Ray, CEO of James Ray International and one of "The Secret''s prestigous teachers, shared his thoughts about what he calls "Thanks Living" -- a practice that his father, a Protestant minister, taught to his family and parishioners:
"It's definitely no accident that a major portion of my teaching in 'The Secret' is centered on gratitude. Likewise, I devoted an entire chapter to this technology [and I use that term intentionally] in my book, 'The Science of Success.'
"While some who don't understand the power of energy, vibration and attraction may think that gratitude is not a big deal, I can promise you that...
"Gratitude is the mother of creative vibrations.
You see, when you're grateful for what you currently have in your life, it focuses you on the best. And that puts you in a vibration [feeling] to attract and receive more of the best. When you have a lack of gratitude in your life, you're focusing on the worst, and that puts you in a vibrational feeling that attracts to you more of the worst.
"Life is a self-fulfilling prophecy and YOU are the prophet.
Now, as you stop and think about this, it's very practical. Think about the person who's constantly ungrateful and full of complaints and problems. Do you want to be around them... much less help them? Probably not. Conversely, think of someone you know who's constantly grateful and appreciative in life. Same question: Do you want to be around them? Would you like to help this person if possible? Probably so.
"The Universe and all its inhabitants line up in support of the person who's in a vibration of gratitude.
Here's my recommendation as you move into the holidays this year: Make the theme of the holiday season 'giving thanks.' While eating turkey and watching football may be the norm around your household, sit down for a least a few minutes and have each family member [including you] list out loud at least three things that you're grateful for. You'll be amazed at how positively this affects the energy in your household. Who knows... you may find it addictive, and you'll find yourself one step closer to 'Thanks Living.'"
