Law of Attraction works all day every day to match your average vibration with similar thoughts, events, circumstances, and miracles that expand your idea of what already is. Law of Attraction does not give you new material to work with, but rather it adds to what you have presently. Like attracts like. The only way to change your present reality is to expand your idea of what already is, and to practice thinking, feeling, and acting in new vibrational patterns. In essence, you have to live your desires today, and feel as if you already have the new circumstance you desire. For example, if you want a new intimate relationship, you would do well to spend time in the present savoring how wonderful this relationship already is, enjoying how you feel in the new relationship, and letting yourself bliss out about it right now. If you try, you can “trick yourself” into enjoying the relationship even before it appears! And once you learn this technique: to appreciate, love, and enjoy things before they manifest…you will change your life into a magical expression of bliss, allowing, and connection. You see, once you think you have something, to the point of being grateful and appreciative for it NOW, it will be matched and intensified by Law of Attraction, and your experience will expand to include more of it. Like attracts like.

So when you file something you want in your mental “to do tomorrow” file, you tell Law of Attraction that you don’t want it today. You speak through your vibration by affirming that everything you want is coming in the future. But, of course, tomorrow never comes. Tomorrow becomes now, and next week becomes now, and next year becomes now, and unless you change your vibrational “to do tomorrow” file to read “already completed,” you will never see evidence of the things you want. What do you think about and yearn for as a future event, circumstance, or manifestation? Just finish this sentence: “Someday I will…” and you will have your list. You may say “Someday I will lose weight, have more money, have a lover, be healthy, and have a meaningful job.” None of these can ever come to you today, and tomorrow never comes either. You have to refile these into a vibration of being here right now. You have to feel the joy you would feel if they were here now. You just have to be a match to having them already. It’s not as hard as it may seem, and your imagination is your friend. Be child-like and enjoy pretending more. Talk like the things are already real. Savor having it all right now, then see your life change in 30 days or less. I am not kidding when I say you can attract anything you want, but you have to get out of the way and stop putting things in your “future file.” Are you ready to enjoy yourself today, knowing fully that it’s yours already? Enjoy this most amazing and joyful day!  Chris-GP

Your Emotions Are Your Indicators!

Once I started using the Law of Attraction consciously in my daily life, I started worrying about my thoughts more. I started noticing that I didn’t feel good as much as I thought I did. I began to worry that if I thought “wrong thoughts,” my life would crumble as the Law of Attraction brought me more things I thought about. I began to fear my own thoughts and feelings. I was afraid that if I thought something that didn’t feel “good” that I would have to suffer the consequences when the thoughts manifested. I started trying to NOT think certain thoughts, which is next to impossible. If I tell you NOT to think about a red rose, you have already thought about it before you finish this sentence. For a while I was caught in a “thought trap” where I tried to only be “positive” and I tried to resist “negative” thoughts and emotions. If you have ever done this, you know that it isn’t much fun at all. Being cheery when you feel cranky feels bad in the end, but if you are afraid to feel cranky…you are stuck. A happy mask doesn’t change the way you feel inside, so you are really not paying attention to your feelings, thoughts, and emotions at all. You are just ignoring all of it. Is that what we are supposed to do? Is Law of Attraction about ignoring how you feel? Of course, the answer is a resounding NO!

While the thoughts you think and the emotions you feel absolutely do create your point of attraction, your feelings are your indicator of where you are on the emotional/vibrational scale. If you are unfamiliar with the emotional/vibrational scale, you can read more about it HERE. Your feelings are not to be feared because they give you important information about your present state of allowing. Your feelings tell you when you are connected to Source Energy, and also when you are resisting your Source Energy. It’s like your gas gauge in your car. You don’t get mad at the gas tank because it indicates that you need to stop and fill the tank, do you? (You may not like how often it reads empty, but that’s a different thing! LOL!) Fearing your feelings and pretending to be happy when you aren’t is just like putting a “smiley face” sticker over your gas gauge. You ignore the important information, and pretty soon there is a crisis much bigger than you had hoped for. So I learned to let my feelings be my feelings, and I started filling my emotional/vibrational tank when my “feeling gauge” told me to. I stopped fearing my thoughts and feelings, and just rode them up and down the Vibrational scale with ease. I relaxed more, and I found it to be very freeing.

I will post a list of tips that I use to fill my emotional/vibrational tank soon. Until then, just be easy about your feelings and emotions. What ever you feel is real, but it is not permanent. You are never stuck in one emotion for very long, and you can always find the best thought you have access to. Acknowledge what is, and then look for relief from the feeling. Ignoring is not a good way to manage your emotions, but feeling fully is. It’s OK to feel your feelings, and today is a great day to give yourself this permission, if you haven’t done so already. Be Well, Marie-GP

Law of Attraction Tips for Wellness and Prosperity

Hello Everyone! I would like to extend a hardy “Thank You” to you all for making Gratitude Planet part of your daily reading and vibration-raising routine. I know some of you have been with us for months, and some of you are reading this post as your very first post. Either way, we appreciate the time and focus you are spending here. In September 2009 we started this site with the intention of adding value and joy to the lives of people all over the planet, and we are grateful to report that things are going very well. In our first month (9-09) we attracted 860 visits to GratitudePlanet.com, and 4,978 page views. Not bad for the first month, before we had any ranking at all in the search engines! In February 2010 we had 5,951 visitors, and 28,715 page views. In total, in our first six months from September to February, we have logged a respectable 20,595 visits and 90,084 page views!  Each day we get more and more registered users, and this expansion is accelerating as well. The trend has been a steady upward climb every month, and again, we are so grateful and appreciative that people are finding value in the site. We have a small yet growing following of loyal users who leave post comments, though we know there are many more readers than there are people who like leaving comments…and that is OK. We have received some feedback from registered users that indicates to us that the comment interface isn’t as intuitive as it could be, so I would like to explain, briefly, some features of the postings that you may not have known about up to now.

At the top right of every post is a pink box that looks like a dialogue box from a cartoon, and it has a number in it:

When you click on it, the number turns into an “X” and a comment box appears at the bottom of the post:

Here you can add your thoughts or comments (log in is required so that spammers can’t mess up the place easily) so that everyone can share in your experience of the material. Another cool thing that appears after you click on the pink box and leave a comment is a “related posts” box that recommends others posts that feel like the one you just commented on. It looks like this:

From here you can click on one of the suggested postings and explore a little deeper into the topics of Law of Attraction. Leave a comment on one of the recommended posts, and you will get another list of similar articles that feel the same. I am sure that the GP Community that hasn’t posted yet is not aware of this awesome feature, and I hope more will use it in the future. Another feature you will experience when you leave a comment is the “author box.” It appears at the top of the post after a comment is made and looks like this:

It is just a little bio of the author, and gives you a chance to know a little about them. Some of them are more extensive, and in the case of some guest contributors, it has specific contact information or links  that you might find interesting. Once a comment is made, you can rate the comment on a scale of 1-5 for how it made you feel, and you can vote it “thumbs up” or “thumbs down.”

As more and more people rate our posts and comments, you will be able to search for the highest rated material if you choose to, and skip the lower rated material. You will also notice a button called “Share/Save” that gives you many options to let your friends know about a post you enjoy:

It is an intuitive interface that takes only a few clicks to navigate through. Try it and see if it works for you. Speaking of telling friends, registered users have an administration page that includes a dashboard button that looks like this:

The bottom button called “Invite Friends” opens up another box that looks like this:

It’s so easy, and your friend will get a short email telling them about Gratitude Planet, and letting them know that you invited them to check out the site. I am so glad you found us, and we intend to make your experience here better and better with time. If you have suggestions for us, you can contact us through the “Contact Us” button at the top of the page. We also want to thank those who have taken the time to donate to Gratitude Planet through the “Donate to GP” button. We know that the time and money our staff spends on Gratitude Planet comes back to us in so many ways, and we are grateful for your continued support, no mater how you choose to express it. As we grow we may expand to include some targeted, Law of Attraction-related advertising…but donations will always be accepted, available, and greatly appreciated. On behalf of the Gratitude Planet staff and team of contributing authors, thanks again for a great first six months of joy and expansion. In Love and Appreciation, may you enjoy this most amazing day!  Chris, Managing Editor, GratitudePlanet.com

Allowing is easy to understand, and not that hard to do when you pay attention. Allowing is simply letting in your well being. It requires you to stay out of your own way by not contradicting your own desires. In fact, allowing is a natural state of enjoying your life. When you relax and pet your cat, or pause to take in the beauty of an art work or sunset, you are in a state of allowing. The opposite of allowing is resistance. Resistance is NOT a flow of negative energy. It is a SLOWING of the life force that is natural to you. Hear that clearly: you allow your wellbeing, or you resist it. There is no assertion of “not-wellbeing.” Bad stuff can’t get you when you are looking away. You are either letting in wellness, prosperity, health and love, or you are pinching it off a little. It’s nice to know that you get to choose to allow or resist the flow of wellbeing, isn’t it? How can you maximize your allowing? By NOT resisting. If you meditate, you stop thought, and therefore you stop any resistant thought, and your stream of allowing increases. When you feel good you increase allowing. When you let go of the struggle, you increase allowing. When you share gratitude and appreciation, you increase your allowing. When you give compliments to others, or make the best of any situation, you increase your allowing. Any time you think the same vibrational thought as your Source does, you really ramp up your allowing. It’s really pretty cool.

Today, just feel for your wellbeing by relaxing into it even more. Don’t go on crusades to fix things that aren’t yours to fix, or feel the need to be right in every situation. Let people do their thing, while you do your thing. Love and appreciate, but stop trying to make things happen…instead, allow things to happen. Breathe deeply, visualize joyfully, and expand into your deepest allowing. Watch the things you want materialize without your conscious need to struggle. Let the magic of Law of Attraction work in your favor to expand your life into more bliss and connection. Be.Love today, Hannya-GP

Allow Joy!

Yes, you can find out a lot of information about Law of Attraction by visiting sites like Gratitude Planet, reading books on the subject, and talking to others about it. But these resources are not your travel agent-type of middlemen who can tell you what to do. Only YOU know what is appropriate for you in every moment. Law of Attraction is alive and running in the background all the time. There is no official book that can be your middleman, telling you how to act, feel and behave to be worthy. You are already worthy. And what anyone else has done or will do is not as important to you as your own personal preferences, thoughts, feelings, and desires. Some people reject Law of Attraction for this reason. Some prefer, like I do with travel, to basically be told what they should do. They don’t want the responsibility to figure it out on their own. They like taking themselves out of the decision and going along with the plan set forth for them. But there is no middleman with Law of Attraction: You Choose! Your results and the joy in your life is based on your own vibration, and you can’t wait to be told what to think and feel. Feel every moment and choose to be the best-feeling YOU that you can be. Don’t Wait! LIVE TODAY! Cut out the middleman and take control. Thanks for reading. Let me know if you liked this post!  Lisa-GP

You Are Loved and Free!
