PEACE OF MIND

Read this in someone else's blog, found it quite true. Hence, recording it here:

PEACE OF MIND

If you were to ask your neighbor,
"What would give you peace of mind?"
he might tell you, "A vacation in Bermuda!" or
"An extra hundred grand would give me peace!", or
"A new Ferrari would make me content!"

But going places – and getting stuff – is usually a temporary solution ...
Peace of mind rarely comes from getting more stuff.
Getting more stuff usually leads to wanting even more stuff!
Peace of mind starts with being grateful for what we have right now.

GRATITUDE IS POWER

When we are thankful for what we have -
for the friends we have,
and for the things we've got,
we attract more good people and good things!
People who always complain about what they DON'T HAVE, stay stuck. Complainers attract more things to complain about!
It is a law of life.
It's hard to explain, but you can observe it around you.
We get more of what we dwell upon.
That's why all the spiritual masters have taught the same lesson ...

"Start by being thankful. Be happy with what you have now, and more will come your way."

It's practical advice.

Every time you say a silent "thank you",
you become more peaceful – and more power.
