Why I call Gratitude the MAGICAL Attitude. (Explained)

I call gratitude the magical attitude because you cannot be in a bad mood when you are sincerely grateful for the things you do have and the things you do like.  It is impossible to be in a negative state of mind when you are focused on all the things that you are grateful for in your life.  The best part of being grateful is that it attracts to you more things to be grateful for, often times, in ways that you can not logically explain.

Being grateful for the money I have (and the money I had) always attracts more money to me, it has never failed...

Being grateful for the love I have (and the love I had) always attract more love to me, often times, in mystical, magical ways.

Being grateful for the health I have (and the health I had) always increases my levels of energy, vitality and happiness

By the way, the opposite of gratitude is complaining about what you don't have and that magical too, in reverse. I say that because complaining about what you don't have keeps what you want at a distance from you always just outside your reach.

Gratitude Floods My Life With ABUNDANCE

Definition  Of  Gratitude:

1. warmly or deeply appreciative of kindness or benefits received

2. pleasing to the mind or senses; agreeable or welcome; refreshing

When we express sincere gratitude to the universe for what we have we activate the 'organizing intelligence of the universe' to bring more good things into our life to be grateful for.

Expressing sincere gratitude produces unexpected MIRACLES in people's lives that defy logical explanation. Expressing gratitude raises our state of mind to new levels of positive thinking. It calls forth inspired ideas within us.  Gratitude renews our body and makes us feel younger almost immediately. Expressing gratitude for what we have is a simple practice that produces MIRACULOUS Results. This is my story how the Universe blessed me with financial abundance once I started the practice of being grateful for the money I had.

Hello, my name is Frederick Zappone. For years I struggled to make money and no matter what I did, I always experienced a lack of money.

I was a victim of money before I became its master. I became a victim of money because I bought the lie that money was power and I was not. This lie caused me to have some very strong self-defeating beliefs about money. As a result of having self-defeating belief about money, I was a money disaster before I became a money master, I went bankrupt twice.

I spent years struggling to make money and the harder I worked at making money, the less money I made until I ended up unemployed. For the longest time, when it came to creating the wealth I wanted, I thought I wasn't smart enough, worthy enough or good enough.

I got to the point in my life were I was at the end of my rope, without hope. I was in a state of despair when, out of  nowhere, I heard a voice whisper in my ear; 'Until you are grateful for the money you have, you will never have the money you want'.

That is when I started my Gratitude Practice. I started with being grateful for the money I had (which was very little at the time) and then expanded my gratitude to include the inspiring insights and knowledge the Universe was sending my way concerning money.  

As the result of applying the knowledge the universe sent my way, money start flowing into my life, moving from a trickle to a flood. 

It was amazing to me how a simple change in my attitudes about money moved me quickly out of poverty hell and into prosperity heaven. 

Because of the success I have had with applying the knowledge the Universe had given me about creating financial abundance for myself I put all of that knowledge into a program I call Money.

My insights about money have made it possible for me to only do things for money that are FUN, EASY for me to do and make me FEEL GOOD about being me. My insights about money will do the same thing for you.

The insights in my Money Program based upon the principles of gratitude can be used by people working for others or working for themselves. It doesn't matter what your occupation or profession is, the insights in my money program will work for you. My insights are simple to understand and apply to your life

Along with my Money Program, I send people a copy of my Money Coaching PDF file on how to attract and make the money you want with no effort at all. Finally I send people a copy of my highly acclaimed Money book.

Here is what a few people have said about my book.

• A down to earth, no nonsense and concise book that tells you exactly how to allow money to flow to you. I am excited to put these principles to work for me. - Linda Altobell

• Frederick Zappone cuts to the chase. There is no filler here. He gives you clear and simple reasons why what you have been doing has not been working for you - as well as clear and simple actions to take to turn things around! - BJK

• I just read this book, and loved it. Finally, someone properly explains the whole thing about 'lack' and 'scarcity thinking' and why it won't work for you. I love how simply the ideas are put over, Mr. Zappone writes simply and clearly and comes over well to the reader. - M. K. Boers

Gratitude is the Attractive Attitude Because It Attracts

.

SIMPLE GRATITUDE (Message 6)

Worry, effort or struggle is always an ALERT signal that you are not completely grateful and satisfied with what you have. Your satisfaction with what you have is what attracts more good things into your life to be grateful for. Dissatisfaction, on the other hand, pushes good things away from you. Satisfaction opens the gratitude heart while dissatisfaction closes it.

As you practice gratitude, your experience of good things coming into your life will move, in almost mystical ways, from a trickle to a flood....  It does take practice to  FEEL the gratitude and it is the feeling of gratitude that attracts good things to you.  Practicing gratitude is definitely worth it.. - Frederick Zappone

How to Be HAPPY When 'Bad Things' Happen

.

I know first hand what the Connecticut shooting tragedy is like. I worked two blocks from Columbine High School when that massacre happened and worked with many parents who had children in that school including parents who lost their children in the gun fire that took place. The tragedy that took place in Connecticut today brings back a flood of unwanted memories that leave me feeling powerless and overcome with grief and sadness.

This latest shooting tragedy in Connecticut made me realize something important to my mental health.  After a tragedy happens, if I can do nothing at all for the victims and survivors involved in the tragedy, other than offer a heartfelt prayer or make a financial contribution, I should immediately let it go...  Why?

Because feeling bad about a tragedy that happened that I cannot change will not unchange it.  The only thing focusing on the tragedy will do for me is makes me feel worse. And since feeling bad helps no one, I choose to focus my attention exclusively on what creates more good in my world. And one of the things that creates more good in my world is being grateful for what I have rather than feeling bad or complaining about what I don't have.   

I am grateful for my 5 children and 14 grandchildren.  

What are you grateful for today?

My On-Going Gratitude List.

.
The best way for me to establish a new habit of thought is by repetition and since it is important to me that my attitude of gratitude becomes habitual, I have created an on-going gratitude list for myself that I will add to on a regular basis. - Frederick Zappone

I am grateful for my health...
I am grateful for all the people who love and care for me.
I am grateful that I learned how awful being ungrateful feels.
I am grateful for the unconditional love Mimi and PJ  (my dogs) give me. 
  I am grateful for the people in this world who live in peace with one another.
I am grateful for my imperfections because they prevent me from criticizing others.
I am grateful to the people who have supported my work with their donations and purchases.
I am grateful for the 'gratitude feeling' because it creates the feeling of abundance inside of me...
I am grateful that I am giving up my ingratitude habit and replacing it with the grateful habit.
I am grateful when I feel ungrateful because it is my ALERT signal to focus on being grateful.
I am grateful to the people who appreciate me and acknowledge the contribution I have made to their lives.
I am grateful that I am becoming better at being grateful for what I have rather than complaining about what I don't have.

Understanding the Gratitude Law

When we start losing things, when things start going wrong in our life, when things we treasure are lost, most of us slip into an ungrateful state of mind. We do this because we see our loss as a bad thing, as a sort of punishment, when in reality, the loss of one thing opens up the door for a new and wonderful thing. However, if we complain about what we have lost rather than being grateful for what we have, we will lose more things until we have nothing at all. As long as we complain about what we lost and don't have, we will never see our loss replaced with something more wonderful than we had before. It is the law.

Blame, The POWER Drainer...

The less you blame yourself and other people for the things gone wrong in your life, the more power you will have to fix the things gone wrong in your life. The more you blame yourself and other people for the things gone wrong in your life, the less power you will have to fix the things gone wrong in your life....  And if you blame yourself and other people long enough, you will end up with no power at all.

Screw Self-Help Books..... Here's Why

.

Nothing can make you feel like shit faster than trying to think like the self-help books tell you that you should think. The harder you work at thinking like the self-help books tell you that you should think, the worse you get.  True, some people get better but most get worse. Why?  

Because you aren't a machine designed to replicate the thoughts of another. You are a unique (feeling and thinking) one of a kind human being. A human being who was created to experience both negatives and positives in this life because the positives tell you what you DO want and the negatives tell you what you DON'T want. 

Without those ups and down emotions you would want nothing and all you would do is just sit there like a rock and watch life pass you by.  Your emotions, both the negative and the positive ones, are the raw materials out which you decide what you want and what you don't want in your life. I will tell you right off, the moment you accept that 'perfection for you' is experiencing both the highs and lows, in life, your 'down' periods won't last so long and your 'up' periods will last longer, a lot longer...

In case you didn't know it, self help book are not self help. They are history books written by people, after the fact, telling you what worked for them...and it may not work for you.

What the Universe is telling you when things Go Wrong in your life.

(These insights are based on my life experiences. - Frederick Zappone)

1. The universe is telling you that you are stressed out and wound up too tight. The universe is encouraging you to take a break, chill out, relax and unwind. The universe is telling you to stop taking yourself and life too seriously.

2.  The universe is rewarding you by telling you it is time to take a break and go play and when you come back to work, the things that stopped working will start working again.

3. The universe is telling you that you're going in the wrong direction, further away from what you want.

4. The universe is telling you that your thinking is off track and is giving you time to reflect and get your thinking back on track.

5. Th universe has taken control of your situation to make adjustments so things will turn out right for you.

Gratitude In Teens Linked With Being Happier. Study:

Thankful for what you have? It could be the key to being a happy, well-adjusted teen, new research suggests.  A study presented at the annual meeting of the American Psychological Association shows that grateful teens are also more likely to be happy, hopeful and well-behaved at school. 

"More gratitude may be precisely what our society needs to raise a generation that is ready to make a difference in the world," study researcher Giacomo Bono, Ph.D., a psychology professor at California State University, said in a statement. 

"Gratitude" in a teen was defined as having a positive outlook on his or her life. The researchers conducted the study on 700 kids ages 10 to 14 over four years. 

At the end of the four-year period, the most grateful teens had a 15 percent increase in feeling like they had a meaning for life, as well as a 15 percent increase in life satisfaction. They experienced a 17 percent boost in happiness and hopefulness, as well as a 15 percent decrease in feeling symptoms of depression, researchers found.

Plus, those who experienced the greatest increase in gratefulness over the four-year period also experienced the greatest reductions in bad behaviors like cheating, drug and alcohol use and detention. 

The finding backs up a previous one conducted by researchers at Hofstra University, who found that grateful teens are also more likely to have higher grades, less envy and more friends than their less grateful peers, the Wall Street Journal reported. ( Article via HuffPost Healthy Living )

The Brick Walls Are There For A Reason

BRICKS WALLS:

“The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. The brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re not there to stop the people who do.” ― Randy Pausch


PERSEVERANCE 

“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”  ― Maya Angelou

TENACITY

“Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.”  ― Dale Carnegie 

GRATITUDE 

“The virtue of gratitude is the most unappreciated and underrated of all virtues. Gratitude, properly understood, is so powerful that being grateful for what has gone wrong in our lives has the power to make it turn out right. That's how powerful gratitude is.”- Frederick Zappone

The True Story of the 'Ungrateful Bastard' and the Grateful Benefactor

The turning point for Scott Neeson, high powered Hollywood executive, was when he received a call from the agent of one of Hollywood's major stars.  The agent said, "Scott, we have a problem." 'What's up," Scott replied.  The agent answered, "the plane the studio chartered for us doesn't have the right kind of water or the food we require and we are not getting on the plane until this is resolved." Then the 'Star' grabbed the phone and said. "Scott my life is not suppose to be this difficult, Fix it."

That was the moment Hollywood Executive Scott Neeson decided to give up his million dollar job with SONY and began working full-time to save the lives of Cambodian children living and working on the garbage dump in Phnom Penh. So far he has rescued over 1200 children from this horrible existence.   

Source: Reader's Digest, September, 2012, Page 181

When I read this story I was appalled by the lack of gratitude the Hollywood star had. However, the more I thought about it, the more I realized, it wasn't the star's fault he had such an ungrateful attitude.  You see he was brought up in an environment, as we all were, where being disenchanted (ungrateful) with what we have was deliberately  programmed into us by the free enterprise society so we would buy more (want more) and complain when we didn't have what we wanted. Unfortunately this programming has poisoned every aspect of our lives from our health to our relationship with others.

Today, the lack of gratitude for what we have is the source of many of our problems in society. You see, the more ungrateful we are, the more unhappy we become and the more we talk and behave in ways that would not make our mother's proud.. 

The virtue of gratitude is the most unappreciated and underrated of all virtues. Gratitude, properly understood, is so powerful that being grateful for what has gone wrong in our lives has the power to make it turn out right. That's how powerful gratitude is...

Most people know expressing gratitude is important if they want to attract more good things into our lives to be grateful for.... What most people are unaware of is the one very important thing 95% of the people are the planet are not grateful for. It is the 'missing piece' of the gratitude formula. If you are not grateful for this one very important thing (the missing piece), the lack of gratitude in this area of your life will neutralizes and take the power out of everything else they are grateful for... 

Without being grateful for this one important thing (the missing piece) you might as well not be grateful for anything because the attitude of gratitude will not produce any good results for you.  

In Message #15 of my daily gratitude messages, I explain what this one important thing is, the missing piece.  I dare say most people will be shocked when they discover what this very important thing is and once discovering the 'missing piece' they will say 'of course, it is so obvious, why didn't I think of it....
