"Attract Happiness Into Your Life"

You Deserve a Whole Lot of Joy

Joy is in release, so thankfully received,Joy is in sorry, so sweetly mourned and grieved,Joy is to be found, you find it through yearning,Joy is in coming and going, waiting and watching, living and learning.

-Norris Chumley

From "The Joy of Weight Loss: A Spiritual Guide to Easy Fitness" by Norris Chumley:Joy is a very glad, happy feeling. It's a radiant human emotion you get as a result of receiving pleasure, satisfaction, and comfort.

Joy is a blissful experience that happens when everything in your life is fine and you are all right no matter what comes your way.Joy is also a spiritual condition. Joy happens when you are feeling blessed.

It comes when you feel the presence of your Creator, assuring you that you belong and that you're not alone. Joy is when you know you are valued and important to this great universe.

I'm sure you've experienced joy, at least a little. But you deserve a whole lot of joy, on a regular basis. Don't wait until you lose weight in order to find joy.

Find and accept it now, and you will lose weight in the process. But first, be aware that you may be holding yourself back.Each of us has a million different joys inside.

It's simply a matter of tapping into them when you need them and creating new, positive habits of letting joy exist.

Starting now, make a constant effort to find joy in everything you do. When you work, see the positive and fruitful aspects of the job-such as the money you are paid, the help you are giving, the importance of your position.

When you're taking care of personal business, find joy in getting it done as best you can. When it's time for a meal, take joy in only eating one portion.

Feel the power and joy of having just enough. Enjoy the good feeling of eating healthy, fresh, nutritious food that's good for your body and mind. When you are active today, enjoy moving your body and freeing your muscles and joints.

Breathe deeply the fresh air and let the rays of sunshine enter your entire being. Look at beautiful nature all around you: trees, flowers, grass, birds, and bugs-they're all gifts from God for us to enjoy.

"Top 10 Ways to Be Happy at Work"

Working at Google sounds very cool. I'd be the first to tout Google as a motivating employer: free food, engineers who are enabled to spend 20 percent of their time on their own projects, and a work environment that fosters play and creative thinking. At Google, Genentech and other Fortune magazine top 100 companies, employers provide best workplaces.

At the same time, perks that enable employees to spend all of their time at work exploit people and destroy work - life balance. So, even the best employer may not be best for everyone. These are the factors that will help you find happiness at work.

1. Choose to Be Happy at Work

Happiness is largely a choice. I can hear many of you arguing with me, but it's true. You can choose to be happy at work. Sound simple? Yes. But, simplicity is often profoundly difficult to put into action. I wish all of you had the best employer in the world, but, face it, you may not. So, think positively about your work. Dwell on the aspects of your work you like. Avoid negative people and gossip. Find coworkers you like and enjoy and spend your time with them. Your choices at work largely define your experience. You can choose to be happy at work.

2. Do

Something You Love Every Single Day

You may or may not love your current job and you may or may not believe that you can find something in your current job to love, but you can. Trust me. Take a look at yourself, your skills and interests, and find something that you can enjoy doing every day. If you do something you love e very single day, your current job won't seem so bad. Of course, you can always make your current job work or decide that it is time to quit your job.

3. Take Charge of Your Own Professional and Personal Development

A young employee complained to me recently that she wanted to change jobs because her boss was not doing enough to help her develop professionally. I asked her whom she thought was the person most interested in her development. The answer, of course, was her. You are the person with th e most to gain from continuing to develop professionally. Take charge of your own growth; ask for specific and meaningful help from your boss, but march to the music of your personally developed plan and goals. You have the most to gain from growing - and the most to lose, if you stand still.

4. Take Responsibility for Knowing What Is Happening at Work

People complain to me daily that they don't receive enough communication and information about what is happening with their company, their department's projects, or their coworkers. Passive vessels, they wait for the boss to fill them up with knowledge. And, the knowledge rarely comes. Why? Because the boss is busy doing her job and she doesn't know what you don't know. Seek o ut the information you need to work effectively. Develop an information network and use it. Assertively request a weekly meeting with your boss and ask questions to learn. You are in charge of the information you receive.

5. Ask for Feedback Frequently

Have you made statements such as, "My boss never gives me any feedback, so I never know how I'm doing." Face it, you really know exactly how you're doing. Especially if you feel positively about your performance, you just want to hear him acknowledge you. If you're not positiv e about your work, think about improving and making a sincere contribution. Then, ask your boss for feedback. Tell him you'd really like to hear his assessment of your work. Talk to your customers, too; if you're serving them well, their feedback is affirming. You are responsible for your own development. Everything else you get is gravy.

6. Make Only Commitments You Can Keep

One of the most serious causes of work stress and unhappiness is failing to keep commitments. Many employees spend more time making excuses for failing to keep a commitment, and worrying about the consequences of not keeping a commitment, than they do performing the tasks pr omised. Create a system of organization and planning that enables you to assess your ability to complete a requested commitment. Don't volunteer if you don't have time. If your workload is exceeding your available time and energy, make a comprehensive plan to ask the boss for help and resources. Don't wallow in the swamp of unkept promises.

7. Avoid Negativity

Choosing to be happy at work means avoiding negative conversations, gossip, and unhappy people as much as possible. No matter how positively you feel, negative people have a profound impact on your psyche. Don't let the negative Neds and Nellies bring you down. Take a look at:

• Dealing With Difficult People at Work.

And, keep on singing in the car on your way to work - or start.

8. Practice Professional Courage

If you are like most people, you don't like conflict. And the reason why is simple. You've never been trained to participate in meaningful conflict, so you likely think of conflict as scary, harmful, and hurtful. Conflict can be all three; done well, conflict can also help you accomplish your work mission and your personal vision. Conflict can help you serve customers and create successful products. Happy people accomplish their purpose for working. Why let a little professional courage keep you from achieving your goals and dreams? Make conflict your friend.

9. Make Friends

In their landmark book, First, Break All The Rules: What the World’s Greatest Managers Do Differently (Compare Prices), Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman list twelve important questions. When employees answered these questions positively, their responses were true indicators of whether people were happy and motivated at work. One of these key questions was, "Do you have a best friend at work?" Liking and enjoying your coworkers are hallmarks of a positive, happy work experience. Take time to get to know them. You might actually like and enjoy them. Your network provides support, resources, sharing, and caring.

10. If All Else Fails, Job Searching Will Make You Smile

If all of these ideas aren't making you happy at work, it's time to reevaluate your employer, your job, or your entire career. You don't want to spend your life doing work you hate in an unfriendly work environment. Most work environments don't change all that much. But unhappy employees tend to grow even more disgruntled. You can secretly smile while you spend all of your non-work time job searching. It will only be a matter of time until you can quit your job - with a big smile.

Attract what you want to be

Be to myself what I want in another personWhy? Because if you don't, you will be everything but what your really want to be... You will be what the other person is, good or bad!I decided that this would make a great topic for today. To find out what others have to say, I entered the phrase as a search term into Google and Yahoo. To say I was appalled by the results is an understatement. Most of the results had to do with people who wanted to kill themselves, that nobody loved them, and complaints about how others had treated them badly. Maybe on second thought, it was mean't for me to see these postings to verify to myself what I already know. This is a lesson that I didn't learn until I was older, like gray hair older. Everyone a person comes in contact with affects that person. I rub dirt on my hand, I have dirt on my hand. If we associate with people who have wrong thinking, loose morals, criminal actions and such, over time it will break down our boundaries and change us. Our personalities, actions, thought processes and behaviors, are an amalgamation of all the people and social environments we have been in contact with in our lives. Of course, the more time we spend with any one individual or in a particular social environment, the more we absorb of that individual and social environment. We are a product of our social environment. So knowing this we can answer a few questions that you may have about your life and life situations.

Why am I a loser?
Why do I always fail?
Why am I always in trouble?
Why does everything always happen to me?
Why doesn't anyone love me?
Why do I never have the things I want?

Take a good look at the environment you are in and the company you keep.

Are they winners?
Are they successful?
Are they always in trouble?
Are they leading good wholesome lives?
Are they loving and respectfull to others?
Are they grateful for the things they have?

This social attraction works in both directions. If you want to attract people that are winners, successful and living good lives, you must strive to be a winner, successful and live a good life to attract those people and values into your own lives.So the choice is yours, take responsibility for yourself and pre qualify your social environment and relationships to meet the criteria of the kind of person and life you wish to lead.Its all about attraction, so...Be to yourself what you want in another person and that is what you will attract to yourself and your life.And don't blame others for your life, you attracted everything in your life to yourself.... change what you attract.

"The real winners in life are the people who look at every situation with an expectation that they can make it work or make it better."

There are no problems in life, only solutions. Remember all of the science fiction movies where they are always looking for the "source". Well,your the source. The source in within you. It starts with your mind and your approach to life. A winner achieves dispite adversity. There is a positive side to everything. I have business set backs all of the time. Because of the Principles of Life, I know that the universe is an ordered place. Therefore, everything happens for a reason. People lose because they fail to recognize this fact at a time of diversity, or they just don't know any better. Yes, it hurts and it can get one down when they have a setback or something happens that isn't expected or what you want. But the universe knows what you need. The universe will guide you if your let it. You may not know today or even next week why something went wrong. But, if you wait long enough the reason will reveal itself and you will understand why something went wrong or didn't work out.Thats why winners can face their problems and can look at every situation with an expectation that they can make it work or make it better. It isn't what just happened that matters, its what happens next that makes the difference. And, as I have said before, you only lose if you give up. The universe wants you to win, so just keep going forward.

Change is Inevitable, Personal Growth is a Choice. Just remember that change is inevitable. And if you can't grow and adjust through all of life's ups and downs, you are not likely to stand the test of time. So, instead of blaming your mother or anyone else in your like for your misery, change your attitude and beliefs, and take the steps YOU need to take to be happy.Taking responsibility for your own needs, your happiness and your life, is the most empowering thing you can do for yourself and the only way to make your relationships work.You need to take ownership of your emotions and be responsible for the choices you make. And if you don't like a situation in your life, you're the only one who can change it. Life is full of interruptions: birth, death, divorce, relocation, new job, health challenges, financial disasters, events that shape our lives and give us opportunities to evaluate, change, grow and find our purpose in life. While we can't control much of the world or the various situations changing around us, we can control how we respond.Stability is when everything is settled. But stability means there's no growth, no development, no exciting new gains that might result from unexpected pains. Some people call change progress and celebrate the improvements that it brings. Others curse those same changes and long for the good old days. Same changes, different responses. The choice is ours.There are two kinds of people; those who are changing and those who are setting themselves up to be victims of change.Our crisis’s, disasters and life problems give us an opportunity for us to change. It's a chance to choose a new path.The secret is in recognizing that major change is inevitable. Understanding and planning for that will keep us relevant in the moment while moving ably forward into the future.

To intentionally attract something, we must give up our attachment to it

The Law of Detachment, also known as The Law of Allowing. This law states that in order to intentionally attract something, we must give up our attachment to it.We already know that you get what you think about, whether wanted or unwanted. This also includes what you think about consciously and unconsciously. That's right, even your unconscious thoughts affect what you attract.Whatever you are thinking and feeling about what you desire is attached to that desire. So, if you have any doubt, fear, or negative emotion, you are actually repelling your desire, want, craving or need.To practice the Law of Detachment and receive your desire you must be willing to trust it to a higher power, or who this author calls GOD. You need to put your consciousness in a place of peaceful expectancy; a place where you feel certain that all is well and that you have received your desire. You need to believe without doubt or fear. I ask for my desire or need and than put it out of my head and just thank everyday for receiving that desire or need. The bible calls this faith, but many people do not really understand how this works. There is a three step process to realizing your dreams and desires. 1 ) ASK:You must verbally ask, with expectancy, for your desire, craving, or need to be met. You must always ask, you cannot receive without first asking. Don't think it, say it. 2 ) ANSWER:The universe or what I believe is my higher power, ALWAYS answers. That power can answer with a yes or a no. Its' not always the answer you want, but its always the right answer. But you receive the answer the moment you ask. 3 ) RECEIVE:To receive you need to be in alignment with what you are asking for, you need to passionately believe even if you have seen no evidence whatsoever that your want has been met. This is where most people fail in their prayers. They ask, the universe answered, and then they don't believe they have received. How many times in our prayers have we asked GOD for something and then every time we pray we ask again. He heard your the first time. Oh God, please, please, please. ASK ONCE and ONLY ONCE, from that point forward only THANK, thats right, THANK GOD for what you have asked for. Even if you have seen no evidence that your desire has been granted. That's faith, asking and believing that you have received. You will not get what you ask for in your time. You will always get it at the right time, and only the universe or the higher power knows what that time is. Everything happens when it is supposed to happen, good or bad, every time, and without exception. This is because the universe and GOD are perfect and do not make mistakes.So, stop repeatedly asking for GOD to give you your desire as he does not like repetitious prayer. Just start thanking him TODAY, without doubt, and with expectancy.
