Morgana - Feeling grateful… and a true story

Today is all about gratitude.
 
It’s been a really good week…
 
I enrolled the final woman for next month’s Goddess retreat in Bali.

 

I spoke at the Expert Insights Book awards, won a $13,500 publishing
prize (giving it to my husband), and I received a big award from
Senator Omer L Rains for my contribution to the economic education
and empowerment of women around the world. (See pic below.)

Wow! Lots to be grateful for!

 
(And life was pretty terrific before all these bonuses.)
 
I also received a letter from a client, about the magical power of gratitude… and I thought you might find it useful, so I’m sharing it with you, here:
 
 
“I was walking out of the grocery store earlier and just took a few minutes to say a ‘thank you’ to the universe for the amazing food that I was able to buy, for the car I have to drive home, and my amazing family I am able to feed.
 
A few weeks I found myself starting to get into that complaining mode….  And complaining when I should be thankful.  For example – I would find myself saying ‘oh we only had X money for our bank deposit today?  That is small’;  or ‘We only had X many orders yesterday… that is not very great’; or ‘ I have to buy bread AGAIN’.  Those little statements that lead to the slow and insidious spiral – but I caught myself and turned it around.
 
And the funny thing about my small little thank you’s:  I got back to my office and had a phone call out of the blue for a new client and  I also had an email for a green light on a project that I quoted over a month ago!
 
I didn’t have gratitude with any motive in mind, but was truly grateful for how easy I have it and how I am genuinely happy!
 
Miss you  – love you!!! And thank you for you!!”
 
 
Now, there are times in life when it’s not so easy to grateful. I do not believe
it’s appropriate to try to force gratitude on someone who is suffering. (That’s just rude and insensitive.)
 
But if you can come up with anything worthy of a little love and appreciation in your life, I invite you to give yourself the gift of gratitude. It’s good for you and the life you want to create.

 

What are YOU grateful for? Please post below!

 
Namaste,

SMART Goals 101: Goal Setting Examples, Templates, and Tips - Brian Tracy

I think you’ll agree with me when I say: We’ve all heard that SMART goals are important . But a lot of people are left with questions about them, for example: What exactly are they? How do we use them correctly? Are they really contributing to your success? Here’s the deal: When it comes to achieving success, one of the most important steps that you can take is setting good goals. It is also important to recognize, though, that not all goals are created equal. In this article, we’ll take a look at a special class of goals called SMART goals and how you can use them to heighten your chances of success. FREE SUCCESS TOOL: Brian Tracy’s 14-Step-Goal-Setting Guide What is a Goal? A goal can be any objective that you set for yourself and push yourself to achieve. Sometimes that goal may be small (like waking up an hour earlier than you normally do) and sometimes it may be larger (like earning a promotion). But here’s the kicker: While having goals of all kinds is almost ...

bosanchez - The Bias of Fathers

One day, I was at a Christmas party. And parents were forcing their small kids to sing, bribing them with lollipops to banana splits to doll houses to Boracay vacations. One father — a friend of mine whose name I won’t divulge as it would be hazardous to my health — brought his little five-year-old daughter to the front. Because he even had a Minus One prepared, we thought, “She must really be a good singer.” So everyone clapped their hands and cheered as the music started. Then the five-year-old began to sing. Or at least made some kind of sharp noise.  But she didn’t get one key right. The cute little girl was absolutely tone deaf. From beginning to end, she sounded so awful, the experience was similar to having an endoscopy without the anesthesia. But the father was right beside me, still taking photos, still smiling from ear to ear, his eyes glued to his little daughter. He looked at me and smiled, “She may not sound right, but can you see how lovely she sways her hips?”...
