Welcome To Day #10 of 21 Days of Gratitude
(the above link will take you to the original website for the 21 Days of Gratitude)
Advanced Appreciation
On Day 8 we suggested that, in addition to your daily gratitude journaling in your Gratitude Journal, you also begin playing “The Appreciation Game”.
And we promised that we would reveal more about the benefits of appreciation in one of this week’s posts.
Let us begin with this quote:
“Appreciation is a powerfully magnetic energy that helps you see the wider picture faster. As you appreciate, you see more and understand more. On an energy level, it brings intuitive breakthroughs and helps you realize God is within you. Appreciation magnetizes you to the Universal flow. When you sincerely appreciate what you have in life, you magnetize more of your heart’s desires. Mathematically speaking, if people spent half as much time appreciating what they have as they do complaining about what they don’t have, life would have to get better.” — Sara Paddison in The Hidden Power of the Heart: Discovering an Unlimited Source of Intelligence
This is why we adore playing “The Appreciation Game.” (Did you give it a whirl yourself yet?)
There are numerous benefits of this game:
1) When you focus on aspects that you appreciate, you shift the energy around the thing that you are appreciating in a positive upward spiral.
2) You’ll also gain practice and strengthen your “appreciating” muscles (so that you’ll experience the energy of “gratitude” and “appreciation” more naturally and more often.)
3) In addition, you’ll simply feel better — and that energy will expand into other areas of your life.
And, if that is not enough…
4) The energy of appreciation can also be used as a tool for transformation.
(Here we are moving into metaphysical territory - but stay with me for the logic of this…)
“When you are grateful fear disappears and abundance appears.” — Anthony Robbins
Today we have an advanced “appreciation” exercise for you so that you can discern the transformative power for yourself.
Today when you play the Appreciation Game (after you journal in your Gratitude Journal) we want to encourage you to also begin playing “The Appreciation Game” in a new way…
Today you will write three sentences to apply appreciation in three different ways.
Sentence 1: “What I like about _____ is…” regarding a situation (person, experience, or opportunity) that is going well for you. (Remember - what you focus on will expand.)
Sentence 2: “What I like about _____ is…” regarding a situation (person, experience, or opportunity) that you would like to see show up for you in a new, bigger way. (This way you will be sending out positive, expectant energy in advance around a topic that is important to you.)
For example: if you are wanting to attract more money, focus on the positive aspects of the experiences of abundance that you have right now. If you are wanting to develop new nurturing and healthy friendships, focus on the positive aspects of all of the wonderful friends you have had in the past (only their positive qualities), focus on the positive aspects of the people in your life right now (love surrounds you) and find positive aspects of all the new people you meet. This will create a vacuum that the Universe will have to fill.
Sentence 3: “What I like about _____ is….” regarding a situation (person, experience, or opportunity) that is NOT going well for you so that you can turn the tides and begin the creation in a positive direction.
Unleash the transformative power of appreciation today.
