Recognising that rewards come from living in the present moment is another difficult concept for people to believe in.
The more that we give gratitude and thanks for the events and situations that come our way, the more that our life becomes enriched and possibilities happen that we never once thought possible.
I haven’t yet worked out the logic of this, but I do know that giving thanks and praise for our present circumstances tends to open the door to more of what our heart desires. Roadblocks reduce. Opportunities arise. Success happens.
A few years ago, I seriously focused on this approach and before I knew it, life began to change. I was working in a job that had never changed for me in 10 years. I was working as a call centre operator and I went about my job as I had always done it. Then suddenly life began to change. Opportunities arose and I found myself training staff in other aspects of my work. Then another opportunity arose. I was guided towards becoming a Team Coach and encouraged to take on the role. Opportunities arose that I had never expected. It was as if I was being guided into new experiences to learn new things and earn more money. I had never planned any of this. It just happened. I was being drawn into new success and given a new outlook on life. All of this happened on account of my desire to give thanks and praise for the circumstances that were in my life. Roadblocks disappeared. Signs appeared. Success seemed likely and I was feeling more and more alive and valued.
Living in the present moment by giving gratitude and thanks for our present circumstances is the key to changing our lives for the better. Everytime that we give gratitude and thanks for our circumstances, the door opens and gifts are returned to us.
The door to possibilities opens the more that we give gratitude and thanks. The door quickly shuts the more that we complain. It is as simple as this. I have no scientific reason for this however the more that I express gratitude in my daily life, the more that I can tap into this subterranean river of love and experience pure bliss and experience unexpected pleasures.
There is no simpler way of understanding this than to just step out in faith and to try it.
