more love you feel, the more of it you'll have in your life. The more joyful you are, the more you'll find that joyous situations and people are appearing in your life. I love that there are so many ways to create abundance through the enormous power of positive emotions!
That said, there are specific emotions that are especially helpful in increasing your riches. One, of course, is a feeling of abundance. Many people were taught that if you feel abundant, you'll become arrogant instead of humble, but this isn't possible. Positive feelings never increase negative ones; they can only increase other positive emotions. If you want to attract wealth into your life, it's important to truly experience a sense of abundance every day.
Abundance includes the feelings of gratitude and expansiveness. When you feel full of riches, you automatically are grateful for them and want to share them with others so that they, too, can enjoy the wonderful feelings you're experiencing. One terrific way to create a feeling of gratitude is to keep a gratitude journal. Each night, write down a list of all the wonderful things that happened to you that day and all the blessings in your life that you have right now. Be thankful for your health, loved ones, home, food, and clothing. Be grateful for your wealth, your opportunities, and your work. Express appreciation for your education and your wisdom, your skills and your talents, and all the unique qualities that make you the person you are. Be grateful for all the love and abundance in your life and for everything that makes you laugh or feel wonderanything that creates a positive feeling in you.
Today, for instance, I'm grateful for the pool in my backyard, the cool water that is just the perfect refreshing temperature, the warm sunshine, the time to enjoy a swim, and Michel and Denis, who are able to enjoy the pool along with me. In fact, every day I take the time to list or say aloud all that I'm grateful for. Every day, I'm thankful for that pool. On rainy days when I can't use it, I'm thankful for the beautiful sound of the rain tapping against my roof, and I'm grateful for a good, solid roof over my head, and-more than that-for a home to shelter me that's beautiful and big. On snowy days, I'm grateful for my snowplow service, my strong teenage son who can shovel the walkway, and the beauty of the falling snowflakes.
