The Four Lessons In Life That Can Transform Our World

I have these sayings that I live by everyday
They have made the hugest difference in my life, taking me from a place of pain, blame, shame! and unhappiness, to somewhere that's empowering, shining, wish granting and  happy beyond compare.

Its the difference in attitude that separates you from your your old ways and brings you into the new.
Like fitness and getting fit, once you are there you need to maintain it, just a little bit each day or a few times a week. Happiness and Health are the same, you don't just get happy and then stay there, you need to do things to maintain that space, and it's easier than you may think.

Here are the 4 Lessons I try to live by as often as I can.

ASK * BELIEVE * RECEIVE
This is a way of ordering what you want in your life.  You can relate it to when you buy something online. You hunt around researching what is the best buy for you and then you buy it, thats the ASK part. You then wait for your purchase to turn up, you have complete faith it will arrive because you know that you have taken the right steps and put in whats required on your end, the order is placed, you can let the outcome go because you trust in the process.  You BELIEVE.  The next part is that it arrives in the mail and you RECEIVE, simple as that.
SO we can use this with everyday life.
You are putting out an intention, making an order to the universe.
You cant get something that no one even knows you are wanting, so ask, let your dreams out there, tell the world what you are wanting from it, make your order and believe you deserve it.  the universe can tell a fake feeling from a real one so you need to project it with the love you have for it. Project a feeling of realness not a feeling of wanting, wanting only leads to more wanting.  Feel the real feeling of having this dream already come true.  Ask like you know its coming, like you know its real.
What I have also found with this law of attraction is that some things don't come easily which can leave me frustrated, I dont give up and not trust,what I do is instead of asking for a new product (like my new computer) to drop out of the sky,  I ask for an idea or wisdom about how I can bring it into my life.  It always works, and it gives me a chance to be creative and work for what I want, which always feels good in the end.
LIVE IN THE LIGHT
This lesson is so special to me because it was spoken by my daughter in an amazing meditation I did.  I was going through my 'Dark Night' faze and could not see a light at the end of the tunnel at all, when your in that faze its like someone has turned out the lights and you have no idea where the exit is, all you can do is process and wait, which is the exact opposite of what you want to be doing.
I use this lesson whenever I have a bad day, which are usually only about my thoughts, hardly anything external.  It brings me back to my center and makes me remember to try and find the light in everything that's going on.  I can live in my dark cloud of resentment, anger, judgment, melancholy and sadness or I can look up, think of the Light things and Live in it.
Anytime I catch myself feeling negative, I stop and intentionally wipe my thoughts, keep it light.  It may not work first time but just keep pushing past the negative into those positive bits and soon your whole body will follow.  So living in the light, almost like an orb around you, an orb of protection where nothing can get to you and bring you down, and if it does creep in you know you can blast it back out, center yourself and maintain your space.

I AM GRATEFUL
Wow, being grateful, where do I start, probably my most favorite subject, this is a huge lesson in life.

How Gratitude Works
Everything in our universe is a vibrating mass of atoms and particles also known as Energy. The energy that you project is based on your thoughts, feelings and emotions and is broadcast as a kind of frequency into the world. What is attracted to your frequency is a similar vibration that harmonizes or resonates on your same level, What the incoming energy then determines is the events, situations, and circumstances that eventually you see and experience as they manifest in your life.

When you are in a sincere state of gratitude your energy or vibration is one of acceptance and harmony. You vibrate positively, and as a result project a much higher vibrational frequency which is exactly what attracts to you the events, conditions and circumstances that you desire.
Think Of Yourself As A Giant Magnet ....Whatever you are feeling, whether it be love, fear, anger, happiness, anger, joy, gratitude, resistance etc. you are creating a magnetic force, that attracts and draws to you events, conditions and circumstances which are the same as what you are feeling. Fear of something creates a magnetic force that will attract more of what you fear. Expressing Gratitude for any situation projects a magnetic force that draws to you more of what you are expressing gratitude for. So what do you want more of??

Try stopping for the few seconds it requires to think of something to be grateful for today.
The more you do this the easier and more natural it becomes. Once you recognize and understand the use of your creative power you can see how you were 'unconsciously creating' your life, now with gratitude you can begin to 'consciously create' the life that you 'do' want, take responsibility for the things happening and turn them around so you are receiving only the best.

Gratitude begins with two simple words – thank you- but you have to feel grateful with all your heart. The more you start to say thank you, the more you will feel it, and the more love you give, the more love that will return. If you use gratitude a little, your life will change a little. If you use gratitude a lot everyday, your life will change in ways you can hardly imagine. Not only does gratitude multiply everything in your life, it also eliminates the negative things. No matter what negative situations you may find yourself in, you can always find something to be grateful for (maybe the sun is shining on your plants) , and as you do, you harness the force of love that eliminates negativity...........So be thankful for your hard earned treasures, gifts, nature, friends, homes, surroundings, children, food, great work, families, animals, cars, health, creativity, sounds and smells....the list to be thankful for is endless.
Somedays I chant myself into a happiness state.  I may be feeling anxious so decide to wipe it out.  I speak continuously I am grateful for .........., I am grateful for.........., I am grateful for and just go over and over with anything you can think of, mainly stating the type of energy you want to find yourself in, I am grateful for how confident I feel, I am grateful for how relaxed I feel, I am grateful for how happy I am right now, I am grateful for this awesome day and how great I feel. Just hype it up and you can feel the energy around you change, you start smiling and the heaviness of anxiety is lifted. 
 
 So Go forth and be Grateful
ABUNDANCE
No matter what your state and where you are in life, you have to project the feeling of Abundance, It's like collecting all your little coins even though you have no money at all, putting them in a special bowl and being happy with your abundance of money.  Same for friends and family and love and work, look at the small with the eyes of Abundance and more will follow.
How can we have more when we don't appreciate what we already have.
Small thoughts gain small results, put the Abundance out there and Abundance will return.
Some days its hard to feel you have anything, I know i have those very days when I have so much to do and its all getting on top of me, all this home crap and work to do, but then I think that what if I had nothing, no house to clean, no posessions to wash, no food to eat so no dishes to eat off.  It makes me realise I live in a very Abundant world with everything I could ever want, I have Abundance.
I just need to remember it more, that I can have everything I want but before then I will be greatful for everything I already DO have, which is a lot.


I have these banners hanging around my house.  They are the constant reminder of what i should be concentrating on, whats important, whats real in my world.
And with the constant media reporting on nothing but tragedy I feel its important to keep my positive spirit up and not get dragged down into the negative world (live in the light! see its an every moment thing!)
I am finally selling them in my Etsy store and handpainting more tonight at 'ladies art night'

Spread the word, spread the love, revel in the sun, that shines above.

Hope you enjoyed these 4 lessons
