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.

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.

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.

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.... 

For those of you who are currently subscribed to my daily gratitude messages look for the answer to the 'missing piece' in message 15 of your daily gratitude messages. For those of you who are not subscribers to my free daily gratitude messages, and would like to be, fill in the form below 

A Real Life Lesson About GRATITUDE.....

.

The letter contains the lesson I learned about gratitude today

Dear Lorena,

I wanted to send you a personal letter of thanks and let you know how much I appreciate
you signing up for my free gratitude messages.

I must admit I was disappointed in the number of people who signed up for my free gratitude
messages so far.  I thought it would be hundreds by now but so far you are one of 8 people who signed
up which makes my feelings of gratitude towards you even more meaningful to me. Let me explain.

In life, it is natural to be disappointed from time to time. At the moment of being disappointed we
have a choice to make. Do we stay disappointed?  Do we get angry about being disappointed?
Do we become bitter and blame God or someone outside ourselves for being disappointed? 

OR.....

Do we use our disappointment as an opportunity to find gratitude in a disappointing situation.

In my case, I am using my disappointment in the number of people who signed up for my gratitude
messages as a reason to be extremely grateful for the 8 people who did sign up.  You see, at this
point, I can continue to feel disappointed or I can focus on the joy I felt when I saw that you
signed up for my gratitude messages.

I choose to focus on the joy I felt when you signed up.

When it comes to gratitude....it's all about our focus.... We can focus on what we expected to
happen that didn't happen which will make us feel ungrateful or we can focus on what we wanted
that did happen which makes us feel grateful.  In this case,  I am grateful that you are one of the 8
people who did sign up for my gratitude messages. And when I remember the feelings of gratitude
I felt when I saw that you you signed up, I feel the glorious feelings only a grateful
heart can feel, all over again, and I feel good,,,,

Warmly,

Frederick

AUTHOR'S NOTE:  I sent this personal letter out to all 8 of the people who subscribed to my free gratitude messages. As I thought about each person who subscribed to my 'gratitude messages' prior to sending them a copy of this letter, I felt more and more gratitude flood my heart and that feeling is both expansive and energizing.  I have no idea when the next person will sign up for my gratitude messages, it could be today, tomorrow or next week. It does not matter because I do know this, when the next person does sign up whether it is you or someone else, I will feel as grateful for them as I feel for the first eight people who made it possible for me to find grateful feelings in a disappointing situation.

It Takes Courage to be Grateful. Let me explain:

.

The Gratitude Practice is definitely not for WIMPS or COWARDS.   The reason I say that is because the first thing that happens the moment you sincerely begin the gratitude practice is that you will discover all the areas of your life where you are truly an ungrateful son of a bitch.   This discovery will shock you, embarrassed you, even make you feel ashamed.  That's why I said the gratitude practice is not for wimps and cowards.



THE GOOD 'GRATITUDE' NEWS


The good news is the moment you become aware of the areas of your life where you are not grateful, the lack of gratitude in those areas of your life begins to dissolve naturally.. In place of ungrateful feelings, you will experience such powerful feelings of gratitude that your life will immediately shift from one where your mind is filled with worry, stressful and anxious thoughts to a mind that is filled with thoughts of love, appreciation, power, peace and strength. 

This shift in thinking happens automatically once you get into the 'attitude of gratitude' habit. And the things you have been struggling to bring into your life such as love, more money, better health will start showing up in your life with no effort at all. Can you imagine that, can you imagine a worry free life?  

Can you imagine a life free of anxiety, depression, and fear?  The gratitude practice will give you that life....

2 cents made him a Millionaire... ( A Gratitude Story)

.

He found 2 cents last year and was grateful. He was grateful  because he knew that, although, 2 cents wasn't much, it was much better than nothing at all.  He also knew that by being grateful for the 2 cents, he would attract more money to be grateful for. The next day he found a quarter. Again, not much money but better than nothing at all so he expressed gratitude for the 25 cents he found.

His family and friends mocked him for being grateful for the puny amounts he found but the Universe did not. He found $1.00 on his walk through town and expressed great gratitude for it. 

He was so happy with his one dollar that he decided to spend the dollar on a lottery ticket..... Guess what?  He won a million dollar....and it all started because he was grateful for two cents.

Expressing sincere gratitude for what we have guarantees we will attract more good stuff into our life to be grateful for. The feelings of gratitude acting like cosmic magnets, in ways I cannot explain, reach out into the universe and bring back to us more of what we are sincerely grateful for.....

Every time you get something for free, even if it is only finding a penny or two, it is a test.  It is a test from the universe to see if you are going to be grateful or not. And if you are and you trust the universe wants the best for you, the universe will reward you with more. It has worked for me all of my life.... 

When I am not grateful for the things I have in my life, the supply of good things coming into my life dries up. And since I have the desire to have more in my life and not less I am grateful for every little good thing that comes my way. 

When you are grateful for every little thing that the universe provides you with, the universe provides you with more things to be grateful for either by dropping them off at your doorstep or by guiding you to them by giving you inspired thoughts and intuitive impulses that lead you to the good things you want.
