3 Reasons You Should Really Celebrate Thanksgiving.

When life isn't going right it can be a challenge to stay positive and not fall into a selfish "I can't do anything until my own needs are met attitude". The truth is, we rarely get great results from this state of being. If you feel like its your turn to do some receiving, or like you have given and haven't been repaid the favor these steps will help you align with greater blessings for your life.

  1. A thankful attitude attracts more good things. Just like we learned as kids, saying "thank you" shows respect to the giver and more often than not makes them want to give more. The source light energy(God,Universe,Jesus) aligns with our dominant direction of thinking and feeling. When we feel like the world owes us, life says okay I can give you more of that.

When we have gratitude for things, our source says okay lets give them more to be thankful for.

  1. Being thankful increases Energy Since negativity isn't our natural state of being as humans it takes more energy to pull off. If you remember being a kid or have kids, you know they can run around in joy with unlimited energy. However after a tantrum or being reprimanded kids often become drained and take a few moments until they are back to high levels. Its the same for adults, when you look for reasons to be mad or things to hate on, you waste valuable life energy. To boost up your energy write a "thankful for" list.

  2. One less Donkey When we can cultivate thankfulness or gratitude we step into a place or abundance and out of lack. A great deal of people who act out negatively against others are in a fear and lack state. When we are short on time or patience we may experience road rage. When we feel giving we can provide a space for a car to pull in, in front of us. When we are in a rush we may cut people off while walking and let doors close in their face. When we are thankful we are aware of others and the fact we have enough to share.

All in All, being thankful is the greatest selfish act in the world and this week you can lavish in that feeling thus impacting your personal life and the world around you.

To being the hero of your story!
