Chicken Soup for the Soul: Stories for a Better World
By taking the time to stop and appreciate who you are and what you've achieved - and perhaps learned through a few mistakes, stumbles and losses - you actually can enhance everything about you. Self-acknowledgment and appreciation are what give you the insights and awareness to move forward toward higher goals and accomplishments.
Now, when anything 'bad' happens, I remember that everything that ever happens to me has within it the seeds of something better. I look for the upside rather than the downside. I ask myself, 'Where's the greater benefit in this event?'
Am I now ready to make some changes.
You have to commit to the what, before the how shows up.
The formula is simple - do more of what is working, do less of what isn't, and try on new behaviors to see if they produce better results.
As you meditate and become more spiritually attuned, you can better discern and recognize the sound of your higher self or the voice of God speaking to you through words, images, and sensations.
You either create or allow everything that happens to you.
