"Be Grateful for Whaat?"

One of the teachings in the Gratitude book is that we should be grateful for everything. That's a tall order for someone new to the process, 'cause we all have some things that we feel are so negative that we just can't be grateful for them.

Today I want to talk about failures. You know, when you want something and you don't get it? Repeat after me - "Thank you!"

You see, since the Universe is friendly to us, there are times when the Universe wants us to give up the good to get the great. We don't always see it, because as Wattles says in the quote above, we have set our sights too low. When we are refused the lesser, it can enable us to see the greater.

Let me give you an example. One of my favorite prosperity and spiritual writers is Catherine Ponder. In her terrific book "The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity" she tell the story of a failure.

Early in her writing career she had great success with articles, having them easily accepted for publication.

Then, as she says, she "hit a snag." Everything she wrote was rejected. She tried everything and got nowhere, leaving her battling a persistent feeling of failure.

However, as she continued to work on understanding the laws of prosperity, she said "it became evident that the rejections were an indication that I was not thinking big enough. The time had come for me to write books. The rejection slips were nothing but success trying to be born for me in a bigger way."

With 14 best selling books, an international following of millions of fans, and a listing in "Who's Who" I guess she was right!

So that's why we can be grateful for failures. We're often being given the chance to give up the good for the great. Now, the great might be a little outside our comfort zone and we might have to grow and stretch to fit in it, but that's good, right? Everything we really want is always just outside our comfort zone.

What are you grateful for today?
Wes

What's life all about? Is it just a struggle to stay above water, or a game to see who dies with the most toys?

One of the best explanations of the real meaning and purpose in life is done by Bob Proctor and John Kanary in the 2-day seminar filmed for "Born Rich". You'll see that you're not an accident; that you were designed to create, and that the Universe is cheering you on!

The personal stories will touch your heart and the tools you learn will inspire you to achieve more than you ever dared. I have just a few copies left.
