The big ‘I’ : Gratitude demystified!

It is a bit longer than I would put in a blog but at the same time worth reading till the end. A must read :

You cannot have anything you want. The very act of wanting pushes it away from you.

You’re losing me.

Let’s go back to the point you do understand : Thought is creative. Okay?

Okay.

Word is creative. Got it?

Got it.

Action is creative. Thought, word and deed are the three levels of creation. Still with me?

Right there.

Good. Now let’s take worldly success as our subject for the moment. Terrific.

Now, do you have a thought, “I want worldly success?”

Sometimes, yes.

And do you also sometimes have the thought, “I want more money?”

Yes.

You can therefore neither have worldly success nor money.

Why not?

Because the universe has not choice but to bring you the direct manifestation of your thoughts about it.
Your thought is, “I want worldly success.” You understand, the creative power is like a genie in a bottle. Your words are its command. You understand?

Then why don’t I have more success?

I said, your words are its command. Now your words were, “I want success.” And the universe says, “Okay, you do.”

I’m still not sure I follow.

Think of it this way. The word “I” is the key that starts the engine of creation. The words “Iam” are extremely powerful.

Now, whatever follows the word “I” tends to manifest in physical reality.
Therefore, “I” + “want success” produces you wanting success. “I” + “want money” produces you wanting more money. It can produce no other thing because thoughts, words are creative. Actions are, too. And if you act in a way that says you want success or money, then your thoughts, words, and actions are in accord, and you are sure to have the experience of this wantingness.You see?

Yes! My god-does it really work that way?

Of course! You are a very powerful creator.

-Excerpted from ‘Conversations with God’

So you see, instead of “I want this” “I want that”…use “Thank you God for……” and “Thank you God for…..”

Nothing works more potently than gratitude.

All the best!
