A simple message. No sticky notes needed. Be grateful…. even those things that you can’t imagine how there’s anything good about them. There’s always a silver lining, and you have the ability to find it.
Something shifts making the way for something better.. if not now, maybe later. There’s always something to learn. Observe.
I’m grateful to you! Thanks for reading my blogs.
“When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.” Willie Nelson
If you’re looking for an abundance of business, money, love, support or health, focusing on what’s working with gratitude will bring you more of what’s working.
“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.” Eckhart Tolle
Gratitude Causes You to Feel Good
Especially during this time of giving thanks, take time to reflect on what you’re grateful for. The more you’re grateful, the more good feeling mojo you create. The more good feeling mojo you have, the more success you experience.
“Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.” Buddha
In gratitude for yourself, is it time to be good to you?
Whatever you focus on grows. So that you don’t blow to smithereens your good feeling mojo, let’s start where the land mines are buried.
If good feeling mojo was your lover, would the following inspire your sweetheart to run to you with gifts of money, love and health or get blasted back to an undesirable past?
Fussing up because people are idiots, things are complicated and your career or business deals aren’t working… again.
Wanting money but complaining that the system is rigged so it’s hard to get.
Can’t figure out why God has broken His promise to you because of what’s happened.
Feeling worried until you get the next doctor’s report.
Thinking repeatedly about how someone has done you wrong.
Looking for satisfaction while blaming, complaining or things being infuriating.
Money, love and health aren’t found on the pity pot vibe. (Oh, and I’ve unsuccessfully tried so hard to be saved from mine.)
Misery loves company. Regardless of what you say you want, if you’re sending silent messages of struggle, suffering and sadness, your energy would bring you more of the same… more of what you feel but don’t want.
If your business or life mirror a Looney Tunes episode, don’t look for the bogey man. Instead, start with good feeling mojo every day.
You can change how you feel by changing your perspective.
“Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.” Oprah Winfrey
Once, when my life had fallen apart, I couldn’t feel grateful about anything. I was separated, depressed, and in no mood to focus on business.
Gratitude. Interesting concept. The end.
However, I heard a story about someone who went through hard times, and being grateful was her magic key. She climbed out of the hole she was in, got a great job, new friends and turned her life completely around.
Hmmm, okay. I decided to give it a try with no clue of where to begin.
Suddenly, lost in thought about “woe is me” while walking through a greenbelt at dusk, I snapped out of my trance.
Stories from the news popped in my head about snipers on roof tops in a war torn country. They killed people who had to run across an open space to get water.
But I had zero concern about my physical safety. I had basic needs. Water. No bullets or bombs threatened me. Roof over my head. AC when it’s hot and heat when it’s cold. I was alive. There was so much to appreciate, however I didn’t see it because I was looking in the wrong direction.
I woke up to gratitude and the blessings of how people were there for me. Even though much wasn’t working, a lot was. So I redirected my focus to where I could find gratitude. I began to feel better. As I did, my life got better, too.

There’s a saying that goes like this: from your lips to God’s ears.
Do you realize the power of your words and thoughts, even casual ones? Do you realize your own power?
You are not a victim of life’s circumstances.
Most people have a habit of talking about what they don’t have, don’t want, what’s too expensive, how they can’t afford something, what they hope for but wonder if it’s possible that it could happen, or simply complain about what’s not working.
Where’s the focus? On lack. On shortage.
As Job said in 3:25-26 of the New International Version (NIV) of the Bible:
What I feared has come upon me;
what I dreaded has happened to me.
I have no peace, no quietness;
I have no rest, but only turmoil.”
Buddha is quoted to have said: “The mind is everything. What you think is what you become.”
The good news is that you can change your circumstances starting now by shifting your perspective from lack, shortage, fear and worry to focusing on what makes you happy and what you choose.
In doing so, you’ll discover your ability to shape your outer world to enjoy what you really, really want.
First, believe in yourself and realize, the best you can in this moment, that you have access to a power that creates all the universes and that which it contains.
Below are quotes from two teachers who add more perspective. These ideas are applicable to money or anything!
ABRAHAM-HICKS
“Continuing to tell stories of shortage only continues to contradict your desire for abundance, and you cannot have it both ways: you cannot focus upon unwanted and receive wanted. You cannot focus upon stories about money that make you feel uncomfortable and allow into your experience what make you feel comfortable. A different story will bring different results.”
“If you are feeling a shortage of time or money, your best effort would be to focus upon better-feeling thoughts, and do more things that make you feel good.”
BOB PROCTOR
“One thing you should never, never do, is worry about whether or not you’ll get the amount of money you desire, because we tend to manifest that which we focus on, so if we’re focused and worried about not having money then we tend to attract more of that way of life, as opposed to if we focus on what we do want and what’s possible and what we can achieve, then we tend to gravitate towards that.”
“You will attract everything that you require. If it’s money you need you will attract it. If it’s people you need you’ll attract it. You’ve got to pay attention to what you’re attracted to, because as you hold images of what you want, you’re going to be attracted to things and they’re going to be attracted to you. But it literally moves into physical reality with and through you. And it does that by law.”
I work with people who choose to share their gifts or business in a BIGGER way but don’t know how, feel stuck or could use new tools or support.
I help them be richly compensated doing what they love.
Virginia Goszewska (go-SHEF-ska) awakens people to be richly compensated doing what they love by aligning with their Soul’s goals.
Based on decades of extensive research and personal discoveries, Virginia created the unique mastermind and success program Soulgoals: A Step-by-Step System to Do What You Love – even if you failed before, lost hope, are afraid, stuck, stressed or confused. The mastermind is an energy created when two or more gather in harmony for the attainment of a shared, definite objective.
