A DOSE OF POWER LIVING®: Free Your Mind – As Rumi said: “Why do you stay in prison when the door is so wide open?”
BOOK: Three Magic Words, by U.S. Andersen – This book gets to the heart of the questions which pull at the human soul, and is one of the early self-help books teaching about the power of Thought in the same vein as The Science of Mind. A relatively short read, it is a good introduction to the concept of the law of attraction.
IMAGINATION. How much do you dream? Can you envision your possibilities? Are you using your imagination to empower your life? When I was five years old, I ran the “Gal’s Club.” It was an exercise club that consisted of three members: Mom, my sister and me. It was exclusive to girls, so I didn’t invite my brother and Dad (“gal” was my version of “girl” which came from my initial schooling in Australia). I even created membership cards and established rules – maybe that’s why one of my kindergarten classmates gave me the nickname “boss lady”. I was set on making sure we were healthy and fit, and I enjoyed being in charge.
GRATITUDE. Do you actively appreciate what you have? Do you focus on misfortunes or blessings? What do you hold on to when times are tough? The constant flow of negative media headlines makes me pause and reflect. I end up feeling a sense of profound gratitude. It prompts me to look at my own life and count my blessings.
