abundance, and gratitude. When you get up in the morning, take a moment to say a prayer of gratitude that you're waking to a day filled with possibilities and that you have the health to enjoy it and the freedom to choose your emotions regardless of what happens. Savor your breakfast. Say a prayer of thanks for your food, and imagine that every person in the world is sitting down to a nice, inviting breakfast just as you're doing. While you visualize millions of people enjoying their morning meal, feel abundance and gratitude. Imagine your wonderful feeling of plenty carrying across the world and entering the heart of every person on the planet. Your mind may try to protest, saying, But there are people starving in the world! That's true today, but it doesn't have to be true tomorrow. When you feel abundance and are inspired to share it with others, you lift others up to your level of abundance. It all starts with feeling gratitude and plenitude, and with the desire to share those feelings.

Feel thankful for your car, your children, and the wonderful neighborhood and schools they enjoy as you drive them around.

Allow them to enjoy your loving home and to feel the energy radiating from your smile. Be generous with your time, money, love, and encouragement. Inspire them to laugh as you tell them a joke and share your sense of humor. Being able to share what you have will make you feel more abundant.
