DAY 23
Freely
Accept the Gifts of the Universe
Today
we need to tackle a crucial aspect of prosperity consciousness that
may be holding you back from the true wealth you deserve: the ability
to receive gratefully.
You have
been following this program for over three weeks now. If I have done
my job properly, you are probably enjoying this process more than you
ever thought possible, and Ill bet you have already attracted
abundant experiences beyond what you believed was possible in thirty
days.
On the
other hand, if you have been diligently applying yourself to this program
and yet you can see no real physical effects in your life, I can virtually
guarantee that you have a psychological block against receiving.
This is
the most common cause of lack in our society, for we are so absorbed
by the notion of complete independence that we feel we must succeed
without any help from anybody in our lives, and we feel guilty if help
is given or money comes to us without us having earned it.
This attitude will simply not attract abundance.
You must
realize that you are not on this planet to struggle for survival, completely
isolated from all around you. Our extreme insistence on individuality
simply fuels our feelings of isolation in a seemingly uncaring world.
The truth
is that you are completely dependent upon the world around you and every
person in it for your survival. Alone, you could not feed yourself or
protect yourself. Without the gifts of oxygen, water, and sunlight,
you would die.
In order
to truly be happy you must realize that you are constantly receiving
help from the outside world in order to live your life, and you must
receive gratefully everything that comes to you. With this attitude
you open yourself to more abundance and more prosperity, and you are
more apt to respect and love all other people, for they are vital to
your survival and happiness.
Take five
minutes right now and feel the truth of these words:
I WILL
GRATEFULLY ACCEPT ANY GIFT OR HELP THAT PEOPLE OFFER ME, AND I WILL
HAPPILY OFFER GIFTS AND HELP TO ANYBODY THAT I CAN. FROM NOW ON I WILL
GRATEFULLY ACCEPT ANY GIFT THE UNIVERSE HAS TO OFFER.
TAKE
ACTION: Try to remember the last time something was offered to
you. Did you accept it freely and graciously? Or did you reject the
offer, or try to pay for it, or feel guilty for taking it? Your attitude
will tell you alot about your ability to receive. Right now, decide
that you will freely accept any gift the universe offers you in whatever
form it takes.

OF THE DAY: You are prosperous to the degree that you are
experiencing peace, health, and plenty in your world. --Catherine
