			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Universe-Source.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1380" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Universe-Source-300x210.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="210" /></a>Hello My Beloved! I am writing to you today to help you remember just how much you are loved, and how much you mean to me. I know there are times that you wonder if I am paying attention to you. But rest assured that I am always with you, and I am always available to you. I flow through you in every second of every moment of every day, and while you can resist my flow, you can never cut it off completely. As soon as you relax and stop the struggle, I rush in with the full love and connection of <em>Source</em> to fill you, recharge you, and to assure you that all is well. I am the energy behind the <strong><em>Vortex</em></strong>, and when you are connected to me, you are plugged in to the energy that manages the <strong><em>Law of Attraction</em></strong>.</p>
<p>You did not come here to achieve anything in particular, or to work hard and struggle in pain until your physical death&#8230;rather you came here to to explore the diversity of expression on the Earth, to create new ideas and desires, and to experience the JOY of expansion that is uniquely available to you. When you connect to ME, you will think like ME, and you will feel about YOURSELF the way that I feel about you. Here&#8217;s a little bit of what I think about YOU:</p>
<ul>
<li>You are beautiful, lovable, and adorable.</li>
<li>You are perfectly suited to be YOU, and that is your only job.</li>
<li>You are a genius creator of your experience, and you are doing very well.</li>
<li>You are loved, and you are perfect as you are.</li>
<li>You are always guided, and I will never leave you.</li>
<li>You are in the right place at the right time.</li>
<li>You can&#8217;t get it wrong, because there is no end to your consciousness.</li>
<li>You are not judged. Everything you do expands the knowledge of the Whole.</li>
<li>You are in complete control of your experience, and what ever you desire, I will provide it.</li>
<li>You are so free that I will let you feel anything you choose to feel&#8230;including disconnection.</li>
<li>You are so loved that even in your disconnection, I will still flow to and through you.</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Source Energy</em> is what we all are, and there is no danger of being left behind. Feel me pulsing through you, and allow my energy to caress your body and consciousness into a better-feeling place. Love yourself as I love you, and let yourself expand and thrive in every moment. In Boundless Love and Appreciation, Source Energy</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ut what about when you assign that frame of mind to larger aspects of your life, like attaining enlightenment, perfecting your tennis game, or becoming wealthy and prosperous? In these cases we often assign our happiness to a future time when we will be "done" and can then "arrive" in some new place or mindset. We might say "I'll be happy when I can pay these bills'" or a similar statement. When you do this, you use Law of Attraction to your disadvantage. Remember that the Law of Attraction only responds to your vibration and not your words. So saying "I will put off my happiness until later in the future when this thing happens" keeps the thing from happening, and keeps you in an unhappy place. We are eternal beings, and there is no "there" to get to. The best way to have everything you want right now is to enjoy everything you have right now.  There is a perfection in our imperfection...our journey can't be completed...because it never ends. So don't wish for the better day to come. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/endlessjourney1400.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1357" title="endlessjourney1400" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/endlessjourney1400-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>There are times that I can&#8217;t relax because I am trying so hard to accomplish something. I get the feeling that if I just try a little harder, or focus a little more I will finally be done doing the thing I am doing. This can certainly be true when the thing is paying the bills, or painting a house, or doing the dishes. But what about when you assign that frame of mind to larger aspects of your life, like attaining enlightenment, perfecting your tennis game, or becoming wealthy and prosperous? In these cases we often assign our happiness to a future time when we will be &#8220;done&#8221; and can then &#8220;arrive&#8221; in some new place or mindset.</p>
<p>Have you ever heard yourself say: &#8220;I&#8217;ll be happy when I can pay these bills&#8217;&#8221; or a similar statement. When you do this, you use <em><strong>Law of Attraction</strong></em> to your disadvantage. Remember that the Law of Attraction only <em>responds to your vibration and not your words</em>. So saying &#8220;I will put off my happiness until later in the future when this thing happens&#8221; keeps the thing from happening, and keeps you in an unhappy place.</p>
<p>We are all eternal beings, and there is no &#8220;there&#8221; to get to. <em>The best way to have everything you want right now is to enjoy everything you have right now.</em> There is a perfection in our imperfection&#8230;our journey can&#8217;t be completed&#8230;because it never ends. So don&#8217;t wish for the better day to come. Instead, look for the evidence that makes THIS day your best day so far.</p>
<p>Find as many excuses as you can to love your journey right now. Be grateful for everything you have today. No matter what you are doing today, find the perfection in the process. If you love your NOW, you will start ushering in amazing new NOWS as your future becomes the present over and over again. You will no longer long for your work to be over so you can relax into your wellbeing, because you will already be relaxing into the best part&#8230;and the ONLY part we have access to&#8230;the present. Thanks for reading. Let me know if you liked this post! Lisa -GP</p>

<p>Well Being is like a cork under the water. In order for your well being to flow to you, you don&#8217;t have to do very much. Imagine you are holding a cork (like a wine bottle top) and you are standing in the middle of a swimming pool just 4 feet deep. If you hold on to the cork and pull it under, it stays under the water. If you let it go for any reason, it bobs right to the top with no effort from you! The only way to keep you away from your well being is to hold your own &#8220;cork&#8221; under the water of your emotions. It actually requires effort to cut off the flow of <em><strong>Source Energy</strong></em> to your consciousness. </p>
<p>That is why whenever you sleep or meditate, you feel so much better. You stop the resistance. You let go. Your cork floats. It&#8217;s nice to know they you don&#8217;t need to do anything except let go and allow your well being to flow to you. And when you do this, <em><strong>Law of Attraction</strong></em> will help you flow even more toward what you want. So just let go, take a deep breath, and see if you can feel your cork float today. Be.Love, Hannya-GP</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/appreciation-T7012.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1300" title="appreciation T7012" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/appreciation-T7012-300x233.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="233" /></a>When you live your life, you come up against events and experiences that make you want something better for yourself. You may get a bill, or a parking ticket, or a pain in your leg, or a headache, or whatever: in every instance, you automatically ask the <strong><em>Universe</em></strong> to bring you a better circumstance as soon as possible. You don&#8217;t need to use words because your vibration does all the asking. Asking is somewhat automatic, then. Once you ask, the Universe and <strong><em>Source Energy</em></strong> responds to this request by <em>expanding</em> the part of you that is non-physical. In other words, you <em>literally grow and become more</em> every time you ask for something better through your vibration. Why, then, doesn&#8217;t your life show constant and continuous improvement all the time? Actually, it should. If it isn&#8217;t there can be only one reason&#8230;you are not vibrating in harmony with the new and expanded version of your greater self.</p>
<p>Vibrating with the new version of your expanded self sounds like a hard thing to do, but it really isn&#8217;t. In fact, we are hard-wired to match this new vibration, as long as we don&#8217;t get in our own way. The <em>momentum of who you are</em> will guide you toward allowing your wellbeing, but you have to be willing to stop focusing the way you did before you asked for the expansion. Another way to say this is, if you have a bill you can&#8217;t pay, you automatically want more money. Once you have asked for more money, you have to start thinking like a person with more money. As long as you think of yourself as a person who can&#8217;t meet their bills, you will remain a person who can&#8217;t pay their bills. Do you get it? You have to match who you have already become vibrationally, or things just change to the same things again and again.</p>
<p>I have a hard time keeping track of what I have asked for vibrationally. I&#8217;m not sure I know consciously what it all is anyway. So instead, I follow this simple tip for allowing my wellbeing: I try to live in the vibration of <strong><em>appreciation and gratitude</em></strong>. I look for things that I appreciate, and I give thanks for what I already have. When you practice appreciating your life, you ask <strong><em>Law of Attraction</em></strong> to bring you more things to love and enjoy. It is not necessary to identify what you are allowing to improve, but it is important that you stay out of your own vibrational way. When you are thankful and appreciative more of the time, you are a <em>closer match to everything you have asked for</em>. In this state, you are in the <em><strong>Vortex</strong></em> of creation, and what you have asked for vibrationally is busy appearing in your reality. Appreciation allows wellbeing, period.</p>
<p>If you want to start appreciating and being grateful more, start by making a short list in your mind right now. Take 10 seconds. I&#8217;ll do the same too&#8230;</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>I appreciate the sunshine today.</strong></li>
<li><strong>It&#8217;s summer, and I love the summer.</strong></li>
<li><strong>I am grateful for the time to exercise my body today.</strong></li>
<li><strong>I appreciate you focus I have with my mind, and the happiness I feel for others.</strong></li>
<li><strong>I am grateful for the <em>Law of Attraction</em>. I get more of what I focus on. </strong></li>
</ol>
<p>That was easy. If you found it a little difficult, just do this for a minute a day. Watch how much easier it gets. Get out of your own way, stop worrying about the future, and enjoy this moment. What you have asked for will be in your reality in very little time. Enjoy how that will feel right now. Enjoy this most amazing day!  Chris-GP</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/handsworld.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1295" title="handsworld" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/handsworld-232x300.jpg" alt="" width="232" height="300" /></a>Are there are times in your life when you feel you are exactly where you are supposed to be? Sure there are!  These are great times because you feel no need to hurry away or fix something that is already done. The <strong><em>Universe</em></strong> is at rest and everything is in place. I like to call this feeling &#8220;Divine Order&#8221; because it seems like everything in creation has come together to put me in the right place at the right time. <em>Divine Order</em> is the basis of <em>All That Is</em>, and it is one of the rules of existence in this reality. Everything unfolds in its perfect order, and there are no mistakes.</p>
<p>But I must admit that there are times that I don&#8217;t feel like everything is working out correctly. Sometimes I feel like things don&#8217;t go my way regardless of how hard I try to make it so. Why does it seem like <em>Divine Order</em> fails me in those times? Well, we know that the <strong><em>Law of Attraction</em></strong> is always matching you up with more of your average vibration&#8230;and we know that what you vibrate and what you get is always a perfect match. So the reason that <em>Divine Order</em> sometimes seems to be out of order stems from our own inability to monitor what we are vibrating outward through our thoughts, feelings, and actions. As you become more and more aware of how you feel, you will observe the connection of how you feel to the results you get in your experience. The order of events and the experiences you attract will always be a match to your vibration.</p>
<p>I refer to <em>Divine Order</em> frequently to help me remember to relax, and also to help me stay optimistic and to expect the best. If I am behind a slow driver, I think about how I am being held back a bit to arrive at my destination at exactly the right time. When I get up, I think about how no matter how fast or slow I shower and dress, I will be in alignment with <em>Divine Order</em> and in the right place at the right time. When I approach my work parking lot, I tell myself that I always get a parking spot, and that my timing is perfectly coordinated with <em>Divine Order</em> to make a space appear as I arrive. It almost always does appear. And when it doesn&#8217;t, I move on to the next lot knowing that once again, things are in their perfect order. I expect something else to go my way because of the experience.</p>
<p>Do you believe in <em>Divine Order</em>? Do you believe that you are guided to be in the right place at the right time? I think it is more fun to believe in this concept than it is to worry about controlling things that you can&#8217;t control. If you accept the workings of <em>Divine Order</em>, you can relax more, and you can take in the joys of life more fully. Let yourself feel the perfection of your life today. Every moment is your perfect arrival into the present. Live and love today knowing that you are supported by <em>Divine Order</em>. Enjoy this most amazing day!  Chris-GP</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/pay-it-forward-dvdcover.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1280" title="pay-it-forward-dvdcover" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/pay-it-forward-dvdcover-205x300.jpg" alt="" width="205" height="300" /></a>Everything in this world comes and goes, and we all have debts at some point in our lives that need to be paid back. When you owe someone something, you have a responsibility to settle the debt. This makes me think about an excellent movie called <a title="Pay It Forward on the IMBD" href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0223897/" target="_self">&#8220;Pay It Forward&#8221;</a> that came out in 2000 starring Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt, and Haley Joel Osment. In this movie the idea of &#8220;paying forward&#8221; came into the mainstream. The idea is that if you do something for someone, instead of asking them to pay you back, you can ask them to pay it forward instead. What this means is that they would look for an opportunity to do the same good deed that you did, except to someone else. Your &#8220;payback&#8221; and good energy become the start of another good deed that, hopefully, expands and expands outward. This approach has some very nice benefits for you as a deliberate creator of your experience.</p>
<p>Remember that the <strong><em>Law of Attraction</em></strong> matches you up with more of whatever you <em>presently have</em> as measured by your thoughts, feelings, and actions. So to change your life in a real and meaningful way, you first need to change your thinking and actions, and also reach for the best feelings you have access to. When you care about how you feel, and when you take inspired action, your connection to <strong><em>Source Energy</em></strong> becomes stronger, and you start attracting happiness and joy into your experience more and more of the time. As a connected being you now have an ability to remain in the <strong><em>Vortex</em></strong> of connection, and also to magnify and expand that connection in every direction of your life. You can &#8220;give away&#8221; your happiness everywhere you go.</p>
<p>When you are connected to who you are and are feeling good, you will uplift others with whom you come into contact. <em>Law of Attraction</em> will line you up with people who are ready to feel better, and you will be of great value to their experience. On the other hand, when you are not connected and not in line with who you really are, you can only bring out the same in others. <em>Law of Attraction</em> will put you face-to-face with other people who are struggling just like you are, and you will not be able to uplift in as powerful a way.</p>
<p>It is much more fun to notice your thoughts, feelings, and actions and make the best of where you are. Reach for feelings of relief, and follow the best thoughts that come to you. Once you feel good, picture your love and joy radiating out in all directions toward everything in the <strong><em>Universe</em></strong>. Picture <em>Law of Attraction</em> working like mad by inspiring others like yourself to be in certain places at certain times, all being guided to cross your path today. Make an intention to uplift these people when you see them, not by doing anything in particular, but just by being a joyful, connected, and loving person. Let the magic of each moment unfold perfectly. If you intend to attract these people to you, they will appear in your experience today. Picture your happiness and connection as a gift that you receive from <em>Source Energy</em>, and then <em>pay it forward</em>&#8230;all day, every day! <em>Source</em> will refill your cup every time you ask it to, and then you will have something to give away to others. Try this today and see if it makes your day go better. Receive, be grateful, and then give freely to others. It&#8217;s one of the secrets to living a rich and happy life. Enjoy this most amazing day! Chris-GP</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/long-walk.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1261" title="long-walk" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/long-walk-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>Exercise is a necessary ingredient to a healthy lifestyle, and making your exercise fun is a key component to doing it over the long term. When exercise is fun, fitness is easy. Haven&#8217;t you noticed that the things you actually <em><strong>like to do</strong></em> are always <strong><em>easy to do</em></strong>, and the things you dread the most are almost impossible to bear? I totally understand the mindset that pre-paves both of these experiences, yet it can be difficult to break out of old habits of thought to create and sustain a new vibration around exercise and fitness. Mark Twain (1835-1910) said that &#8220;A habit cannot be tossed out the window; it must be coaxed down the  stairs a step at a time.&#8221;  Sometimes all we need is a little &#8220;get up and go&#8221; (combined with fun) to change our habits a little at a time. Here is what I suggest: Take a <em>Gratitude and Connection Walk</em>. When I walk, I make it more fun by using my imagination, thoughts, and deliberate focus to feel better. Feeling better equals fun to me, and you probably feel much the same way.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how it works. Look at something&#8230;<strong>anything</strong>&#8230;that catches your attention. It can be a house in the neighborhood you are walking through, or a car, or a bird, or a trash can&#8230;anything you observe in your immediate environment.Simply say to yourself &#8220;I see a house&#8230;and I like its (<em>fill in the blank</em>).&#8221; So for example, someone might say, &#8220;I see a car, and I appreciate its deep blue paint job.&#8221; If you see something and you can&#8217;t think of anything to be grateful or appreciative about concerning it, find the <em><strong>best thought you have access to</strong></em> about it. This might sound something like &#8220;I see a dented car, and I appreciate that it&#8217;s not mine!&#8221; It&#8217;s OK if you just chuckle at yourself; but you did well finding something that felt true, and something that was the best thought you could think in the moment. The next thing you see, if you stick to reaching for gratitude and appreciation, will probably provide better things to like. Look for them, find them, and say them. Before long, the vibration within you will start to raise and expand to a very connected and blissful place.</p>
<p>One word of caution, however. This game can be played in the opposite direction, where you put down, make fun of, or become critical of the things you see. This will expand the vibrational range <em>downward</em> to thoughts that feel worse and worse the more you think them. The beauty is that you get to choose the direction that your thoughts flow, and when you feel better, everything looks, tastes, feels, and smells better. Your fifteen-minute walk that used to feel like two hours will feel more like fifteen minutes, and the fun you have raising your vibration will become the immediate payoff for your exercise. Instead of thinking &#8220;I really should take a walk today&#8221; you will begin to crave your <em>Gratitude </em><em>and Connection Time</em> instead. Go ahead and get out today, alone or with a few close friends, and enjoy being deliberate about your joy!  Be.Love, Hannya-GP</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Up to this point, I never wanted to be an astronaut, so I haven't built up much energy to attract people and circumstances to me through Law of Attraction. What I have attracted is a match to what I have asked for so far, and stopping on a dime and changing my vibration to something totally different is possible, but unlikely. So the first clarification is that I CAN'T be, do, or have anything...but rather I have to want it first, and then I can be, do, or have anything I really want. If you want it, it is possible. If you can become a match to anything, it must become your reality. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/astronaut-suit.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1246" title="astronaut-suit" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/astronaut-suit-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>The <strong><em>Law of Attraction</em></strong> states that two vibrations that are alike are drawn together. You are a vibrational magnet that calls more of the same unto yourself. Because of this, it has been stated that you can be, do, or have anything you want. Anything is possible as long as you <em>become a match</em> to whatever it is that you want. Sounds good in theory, but what if I want to be an astronaut? What is the chance that a 40-something guy who teaches for a living will suddenly become a space traveler? Quite unlikely. So is the premise that you can be, do, or have anything flawed and untrue? No. It&#8217;s true, but some clarification needs to be made.</p>
<p>I may not be able to be an astronaut in the strictest sense, because I wouldn&#8217;t be able to start over and become a fighter pilot, or be in the right place to study and train at NASA, and I wouldn&#8217;t be chosen to go on a mission over the many other well-trained men and women ready to serve in that capacity right now. But the real thing working against this dream is the lack of vibration I have around it. Up to this point, I never wanted to be an astronaut, so I haven&#8217;t built up much energy to attract people and circumstances to me through <em>Law of Attraction</em>. What I have attracted is a match to what I have asked for so far, and stopping on a dime and changing my vibration to something totally different is possible, but unlikely. So the first clarification is that I CAN&#8217;T be, do, or have anything&#8230;but rather I have to want it first, and then I can be, do, or have anything I really want. If you want it, it is possible. If you can become a match to anything, it must become your reality.</p>
<p>OK, you say, but what if today you decided you really, really wanted to go to space? Then what? Is it possible? Yes, if I want it, it is possible. But how? First, I would start focusing only on thoughts that aligned with this goal. I would pay attention to how I feel when I think these thoughts. I would be sure to feel good about the goal, and not sabotage my vibration with doubt. Then I would look for any evidence that the <strong><em>Universe</em></strong> was providing for progress toward my goal. Perhaps I would meet people in the space industry who want to talk to me about the goal, or I would find myself watching TV shows about the topic. Every bit of evidence would be followed up by more optimistic thinking around the goal. &#8220;This is possible for me, and I am going to space,&#8221; I might say frequently. <em>Law of Attraction</em> would then begin to snowball circumstances and events to bring me greater and greater evidence of the goal. I might get a chance to go to a space camp or meet someone who is starting a company to send civilians into space. If I really followed this with my focus and desire, and if I didn&#8217;t contradict my own desires with out-of-the-<strong><em>Vortex</em></strong> thinking, then it would be possible for me to orbit the Earth in a spacecraft. I can do it.</p>
<p>Many people don&#8217;t think this is possible because they say they want things that they aren&#8217;t willing to pursue vibrationally. I can&#8217;t be an astronaut unless I have a strong desire to be one. You can&#8217;t lose weight unless you want to lose it enough to attract a &#8220;thin vibration,&#8221; which means focusing on thin and being single-minded and optimistic about thin. You can be, do, or have anything you want. So what do YOU really want? Are you willing to attract it unto you? If so, let yourself feel the essence of the vibration right now. If you want thin, reach for a feeling of thin right now.  If you want prosperity, reach for a feeling of richness right now. If you want health, reach for a feeling of wellness right now. If you want love, reach for a feeling of joy right now. You attract everything to you, and your ability to focus on what you really want determines your success&#8230;always. Enjoy this most amazing day! Chris-GP</p>

		<description><![CDATA[When life causes you to want something, as you desire it a signal is sent to the Universe, and an order is placed with Source Energy on your behalf for a physical manifestation. While you are the "asker" for the new condition (money, health, a new job, more friends, or whatever) you don't need to spend one second worrying if the Universe got the order. Once it is placed, it is placed. Now your focus can be to recognize when your "product" comes by on the assembly line, and to add your quality and craftsmanship to the product. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/assembly_line2.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1221" title="assembly_line2" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/assembly_line2-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>If you have wanted something for a while, you might begin to feel frustrated more and more the longer it takes to materialize in your experience. You may think that you need to work harder, or that you need to do something big to make your desires manifest. But you are not responsible for the work that the <strong><em>Universe</em></strong> does on your behalf, and you don&#8217;t need to manage the <strong><em>Law of Attraction</em></strong> to make it work for you either. Here&#8217;s an illustration to help clarify this.</p>
<p>Pretend that life is like a giant assembly line, and that you are a single worker on that assembly line. Your job is to add your energy and expertise at exactly the right time, and with all the <em>care</em>, <em>quality</em>, and <em>craftsmanship</em> you can. You are not responsible for placing the order, or keeping the line running, or adding other pieces, or even worrying about the final product. Your job is to <em>add your unique piece as masterfully as you can</em>.</p>
<p>When life causes you to want something, as you desire it a signal is sent to the <em>Universe</em>, and an order is placed with <em><strong>Source Energy</strong></em> on your behalf for a physical manifestation. While you are the &#8220;asker&#8221; for the new condition (money, health, a new job, more friends, or whatever) you don&#8217;t need to spend one second worrying if the <em>Universe</em> got the order. Once it is placed, it is placed. Now your focus can be to recognize when your &#8220;product&#8221; comes by on the assembly line, and to add your quality and craftsmanship to the product. In the case of more money, you would live your day looking for evidence of more money coming to you.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s say you are buying something and the clerk informs you at the checkout that she will be taking an extra 20% the total; picture your prosperity coming before you on that vibrational assembly line. What are you going to do as it goes by? If you say something to yourself that feels like &#8220;the <em>Universe</em> is always looking out for me, and is bringing me more money all the time,&#8221; it is as if you polished the desire and put gold trim around it. Then off it goes, toward some finished product you will see shortly. But your job is done until you see the next piece of evidence of your prosperity. Look for it, and you will see it again. Add another detail of vibrational quality as it comes by again.</p>
<p>If you decide instead to say something to yourself that feels like &#8220;I shouldn&#8217;t be spending this money because I never have enough. Another 20% off what I don&#8217;t have is not good for my prosperity,&#8221; then it is like taking a baseball bat and knocking the product right off the assembly line belt as it goes by. Instead, always think about the value you can give the thought, and do your best to make the quality of the thought increase as it travels by on your vibrational conveyor belt. You are not the factory, the <em>Universe</em> is. You are not the conveyor belt, time and space is. You are not in charge of assembling the pieces before they get to you, <em>Law of Attraction</em> is. Do YOUR job today, which is to add craftsmanship and quality to the piece that is before you right now. Relax and let the rest of the work be done by <em>Source Energy</em>. If you do this you will be amazed at the end result: <em>what you want will be in your experience more and more of the time</em>. I think it is actually very freeing to know I don&#8217;t need to do it all, and that I have a specific and manageable job. I give thanks, <strong><em>gratitude</em></strong>, and appreciation for my specific job and purpose today. Do your job proudly and joyfully today, and let the pieces come together naturally and with love. Enjoy this most amazing day. Chris-GP</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/The-Power-of-Now.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1217" title="The Power of Now" src="http://gratitudeplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/The-Power-of-Now-195x300.jpg" alt="" width="195" height="300" /></a>If you really think about it, all we ever have is right now. The past is always past, and the future is the future, and we only ever meet them in the present. Yet how many times do we allow the past or the future to keep us from fully enjoying what is happening right now? I would have to admit that I can be better at this more of the time.  <strong>Eckhart Tolle&#8217;s</strong> book &#8220;<em>The Power of Now</em>&#8221; is a great read about this subject, and he suggests that not being present (or in the now) is a chronic problem in the minds of many people in society today. <em>(See a link to his website under &#8220;Other Cool Sites&#8221; on the GP sidebar)</em>. He recommends that we take some time each day to think about nothing except what is happening <strong><em>right now</em></strong>, and then let your mind be free of both past and future for that time. What we discover is that this can be done through meditation, exercise, or any other activity where we focus completely on the present moment to the exclusion of the past and future. What happens is an amazing transformation where your <em>worries evaporate, your vibration raises, and you feel better</em>. Tolle asks his readers: &#8220;What problem do you have right now?&#8221; Any answer referencing the past or future is revealed as a false problem. He asks again, &#8220;What problem do you have right now?&#8221; As you realize that you will react in the now if a problem does arise, and that in the moment you will know what to do, then you can accept fully that, indeed, <em>there is really no problem right now</em>.</p>
<p>Once you realize that you have no real problems right now, you can relax into your wellbeing more, and allow yourself to feel better and better. Feeling better is the first step to allowing <strong><em>Source Energy</em></strong> to flow through you, and once you are connected to <em>Source</em>, all good things will flow easily to you. Do your best to live in the <strong>Now</strong> today. Live, breathe, move, feel, and be grateful right <strong>Now</strong>. Enter the <strong><em>Vortex</em></strong> right <strong>Now</strong>. Enjoy the power of <strong>Now</strong>, and the magic of <strong>Now</strong>. Imagine having everything you want right <strong>NOW</strong>. Feel the exhilaration of how it feels to be right where you want to be, which is always in the <strong>Now</strong>. Enjoy this most amazing day&#8230;right <strong>NOW</strong>! Chris-GP</p>
