The Magical Gratitude Challenge ~ Day 6

The Magic Gratitude Challenge ~ Day 6

Works Like Magic

Day 6: Works Like Magic

"If you take any activity, any art, any discipline, any skill - take it or push it as far as it will go, push it beyond where it has ever been before, push it to wildest edges of edges, then you force it into the realm of magic."  -Tom Robbins 

 

I loved the quote by Tom Robbins above. I found it on the Day 6 Chapter of the book, The Magic. It is so true! If you take your dreams or anything you want to manifest in your life, and you push it as far as it will go. You will bring it into your life. I have done this many times in my life with success. When I met my husband, I had a vision of the man I wanted to come into my life. I got excited about it, I talked about it, watched movies about love and romance. I had a clear vision of what he would look and act like. And three months later I met him! It has instant. I knew it was the man I had dreamt of. When I become a mother, I focused on how to be the best Mom I could. I listened to advice from other mothers, read books and magazines. I learned songs, riddles and games to play and interact with them. I was always trying to learn more to make sure I made the memories I always dreamt of creating for my kids!  When I wanted to become an Interior Decorator, I read books, magazines and watched HGTV all day, every day. I took weekly field trips to model homes and spend an hour or so in each. I would stand on furniture to look at how they put their window treatments together, I would lift the custom bedding to see how they sewed the custom corners, and I took a million photos to get ideas and inspiration. I went to interior design shops, strolled through putting ideas together mentally. I went to fabric stores and stayed for hours putting colors, textures and designs together. I learned to sew, paint and redo furniture. I decorated my home and redecorated my home on a consistent basis. I talked to everyone that would listen about my passion, I give advice and helped people pick out design ideas to practice. I engulfed myself with my passion, my dream!

With each dream I pursued, I engulfed myself in thoughts of what I wanted, I felt the feeling in my heart of how it would feel if I had it and I created an action plan. Those are 3 things I always use when I want to manifest something in my life. I think about it, I feel the excitement about it, and I act upon it. Acting upon it is so important when you are using The Law Of Attraction. It is what gets the manifestation moving! I have had a lot of wonderful ideas that fizzled out because I didn't use all three at once. I either had the thought and.or the feeling and I didn't have the guts to act upon it or I didn't think I could make it happen or I was afraid of failure. The feelings of fear of failure and uncertainty create a blockage. Because remember in The Law Of Attraction it states that "thoughts create things" and "like attracts like". So my feelings of fear and uncertainty created a blockage in my path. Interesting, huh? So, when you want to create and manifest anything in your life, you need to check all three of those and find out where the block is. Adding as much gratitude as you can in any and all areas of your life further pushes your dreams into reality. Because your feelings are on the right vibe to attract the things you want. You can't expect to be upset all the time and go right into feeling the joy in your heart for something you want. It is too hard to swing from one feeling to the next. If you are continually practicing gratitude and you focus on your thoughts, feelings and actions of your dreams the swing from the state of gratitude to where you dream of going is a lot closer and easier to achieve, because you are in the vicinity of that feeling. Do you get it? If not, reread it until you do. It is a lot to take in and understand, I know.

Day 6 Challenge:

This challenge was a little hard for me at first. I thought it was a little silly. :) But I promised myself I would complete the whole 28 day challenge, so I pushed through this one! (I just realized as I was typing this that I used all three doing this challenge! I thought about going the The Magic Gratitude Challenge. I felt the feeling of how it would feel if I was able to become more grateful. And I followed through with the challenge! It is a great formula to follow! It works!) The author, Rhonda Byrne, asks us to go through out our work day and pretend there was an invisible manager following behind us taking notes about how grateful we are about our job. Every time you use gratitude through out your work day, your invisible manager will jot it down. You will say what he/she jotted down. Example: "I am so grateful for my work space. It is spacious!", "I am grateful for my co-worker, Shannon, she is so helpful!", "I am so thankful for my boss, who gave me a chance to advance in my career!". If you are a stay at home Mom or Dad, you would do it the same way with things you are grateful for as a homemaker! :) IF you have a negative thought or feeling about your work and/or home life. You reverse the thought or feeling by saying..."BUT, I am grateful for..." If it lands on your day off, you can move the challenge to another day. Or like I did, I just used my invisible manager at home. Where there is always work to be done and gratitude needed! ;) It is up to you, how you want to do it. 

When you use gratitude with anything that needs to be done, it not only makes the job easier and more rewarding. It creates the thought and feeling you need to get to where you wish to go in your career and/or home life. The next step would be the action. The action is created by the thought and feeling of success and pride in yourself. Which was realized through having the gratitude for your work and/or home life! Are you seeing the pattern? The more you are grateful, the more your thoughts, feelings and actions are in the right vibe for The Law Of Attraction to work! When you are excited about your work, you work harder and with ease and precision, you are then rewarded for your actions. The reward could be an advancement, a new path that opened up, a raise, more peace and more happiness. The ultimate reward is when you see your dreams come true! So make sure to really work on this challenge, it will help you create the life you dream of having!

The Magic Gratitude Challenge ~ Day 4

Magical Health

Day 4: Magical Health

Our health is what helps us live a better life. Without it we have nothing. Yet, we never think about our health until we don't feel well or there is something wrong. Our health is such a beautiful gift. But to have health and to be grateful for it is even more of a gift! Our thoughts are very powerful. When you realize that your thoughts create your future, you will be more careful to choose them more wisely. There is a story I heard a few years ago...Where there were two women about the same age, who had the same disease. One complained. She talked about how sick she was to anyone who would listen. She thought about how unfair it was that she was so sick and others around her were well. She was angry at the world and had fearful and depressing thoughts...The other was optimistic yet, still in pain. She spoke words of healing, being well and visualized herself overcoming her disease. The one that complained died 1 year later. The one that was optimistic, recovered and has been well for over 10 years now! So as you see - Our thoughts do matter!

The more positive you are about your current health, the more optimistic you will be about your future health. Scientists have done studies linking stress, anxiety and depression to many illnesses. And the studies also showed that the people that were more grateful healed quicker than those who were not. Even if you do not believe that your thoughts create your future, why would you want to risk it? Being more optimistic is a better way to live, no matter if you believe that The Law Of Attraction works or does not work. Choosing to sit in the darkness, instead of standing up and walking out into the light baffles and confuses me. You are such a rare and beautiful gift. You should always cherish yourself and your health until your last breath. If you are currently sick you should make it a point to really focus on all the good things in your life. To celebrate the parts about you that are not sick. And visualize yourself completely and fully healed. Making sure to FEEL the feeling of your visualized health. Feeling is the key to making The Law Of Attraction work more in your life! It truly is magical when you finally experience The Law Of Attraction working for you!

Today you will celebrate your health. In the book the author, Rhonda Byrne asks you to think about different parts of your body (inside and out). And then asks you to close your eyes and say thank you for each body part or body function. Example...she asks you to think about your legs and feet. They help you to get around and do so many things. You are able to walk wherever you need to go without any help or assistance. You can exercise, dance, climb the stairs and operate your vehicle. You can walk around and explore the world so easily with your legs and feet. What a freedom we have because of our legs and feet! Yet, the only things that we think about are what our legs and feet are not. They are either, too short, too long, too fat or just plain ugly. When was the last time you said something nice about your legs and feet? I think it is time to start to appreciate what they are - They are a gift of freedom and you are so blessed to have them! When you stop and realize that, you will look at them differently. It is time to love yourself and cherish what you do have. And stop wishing for something different or using negative words to describe yourself. You can always add in exercise to get your body into shape. BUT there should never be any complaining and negativity about what you were born with. YOU ARE BLESSED!

If you have the book, read through each paragraph and close your eyes and say thank you for each of your body parts. Making sure to FEEL the feeling of gratitude as you say the words thank you!!!
I added more to the list that she had provided in her book. I wanted to celebrate every part of my body and my health. It changed my thoughts about myself and it made me fall in love with myself more (not in a conceited way). The things I hated most about myself, I focused and gave as much gratitude for them as I could. I can say I love my big feet and even my scar that I have from a car accident when I was a teenager. That scar is a reminder of how blessed I was to live through it and that I did not lose an eye that night. The glass grazed my eye and I am so blessed to have my sight! That accident also taught me not to be so vain. So take some time and think about how blessed you are and thank yourself for all that you have!

After you are done with that challenge. Take a piece of paper or a card and write..."The gift of health is keeping me alive!" on the piece of paper. Put it in a place where you will see it through out the day. Each time you see it you will slowly say it, one word at a time and FEEL as much love and appreciation as you can while reading it! You should do it at least 4 times during the day! I changed mine up. I wrote, "The gift of health is keeping US alive!" I wanted to add my family's health to this challenge, as well. I actually wrote mine on my bathroom mirror with a dry erase marker and left it for about a week. :)

You will write your daily 10 "Count Your Blessings" list and write your "Magical Rock" moment from last night, as well! Tomorrow we are talking about MAGICAL MONEY!!! If you have any questions, comments or suggestions email me @ ascreaminggoodlife@gmail.com!

The Magic Gratitude Challenge~ Day 3

Magical Relationships

Day 3: Magical Relationships

Our relationships are so important, yet we take them for granted every single day. We don't stop to appreciate them the way that we should. Until there is a crisis or something that stops us in our tracks and wakes us up. Could you imagine waking up tomorrow and the only person in the world was you? There were no family, friends or pets - just you. You would have no one to talk to, to love or care for. You wouldn't have the motivation to strive for anything because there would be no one to see you succeed. No one to celebrate your successes or support you if you failed. It is our relationships that give us the most joy and happiness. They give us meaning and purpose to strive to become better human beings. Our relationships affect our whole life. If they are struggling or not working, it affects you and how well your life is functioning. To have the life that you dream of, to become who you want to be - You have to have good relationships to truly enjoy it! If you don't you will never get to the place you dream of going. And if you do, it will never be as enjoyable because you will have a missing puzzle piece...good relationships!

Though gratitude you can repair and heal the pain that has caused you to build the wall between you and your broken relationships. People who practice gratitude have better relationships and are more peaceful. They don't sweat the small stuff and realize that there is so much more to life than arguing over things that are not worth arguing over. As I became more grateful, I started to let go of the petty, little annoying things that would end up being blown out of proportion. I was calmer and more even keeled. I saw the BIGGER picture. And I knew that I wanted peace and happiness, more than I wanted to be right. I started to give thanks for even my worst relationships. I put my anger or sadness aside and decided to focus on what was right in my relationships. I gave gratitude for all the wonderful qualities that they had and I remembered the wonderful gestures I had received from them. It was like a veil had been lifted and the sadness disappeared. I couldn't even try to be sad or angry with them because the peace that the gratitude brought was so healing.

In the book, Rhonda Byrne said something that has stuck with me. She said, "For every ONE complaint about another person, whether in THOUGHT or WORD, there have to be TEN BLESSINGS for the relationship to flourish." That sentence has stuck with me since the first day I read it. I immediately started to use it with every negative or bad thought or word I had. If I thought something horrible or ugly about someone, I would then say to myself..."BUT they are..." and I would say 10 wonderful things about them. It trained me not to think or say negative things as quickly. I even used it when I judged complete strangers. I would then say 10 wonderful things that must be good about them. I was shocked by how much I judged without knowing that I was judging. I always thought I was very fair and nonjudgmental. That sentence helped me to become more loving and understanding. I hope you use it to help yourself to become more peace and happy too!


Words are powerful, so when you use them to complain you are hurting yourself and your chance at becoming more of what you truly want to be. Because remember The Law Of Attraction is always working. So be cautious with your thoughts and words. In the book Rhonda Byrne says the question- What if everyone close to you said, "I love you just the way you are!", how would you FEEL?
You would feel so amazing and so cherished! Well, what if you were able to say that to the ones you love and care for? It would be such a gift if we could just let people be who they are without feeling like we have to change them or judge their actions.


Day 3 Challenge:

Today you will choose three close relationships. You will need a photo of each person. You will have to think about all the things you are grateful for about each person. It could be things you treasure and love about them. Their beauty, their heart or things that make them special. Maybe even beautiful memories you shared together. It could be anything you want it to be. After you have had some time to think about all the wonderful things that make this person special. You will write 5 things you are MOST grateful for each person. Beginning each sentence with THANK YOU...

Example: Thank you, Katy, for being so supportive when I was sick. It most the world to me!

After you are done with all three. You will take the photos with you all day and look at them as often as you can....each time you look at them say the words THANK YOU (making sure to FEEL it in your heart). You should at least do this three times during the day for each person. She suggests that you do this challenge often, though not required. It truly is a beautiful way to remember how valuable your relationships are! You could select three people a week you want to celebrate and have gratitude for.





Make sure you do your 10 "Count Your Blessings" and add your Magical (Gratitude) Rock blessing from last night to the list! Tomorrow we will talk about Magical Health! If you have any questions, comments or suggestions you can email me @ ascreaminggoodlife@gmail.com!

The Magic Gratitude Challenge ~ Day 2

The Magic Rock

Day 2: The Magic Rock

If you have read or watched, The Secret you have seen where one of the spiritual teachers, Lee Brower had talked about the gratitude rock. There was a father that had a dying child and was given a gratitude rock. The rock was something he held over his son and would think thoughts of his son completely being healed and well. His son was healed and he believed the gratitude rock helped. I believe when you truly "focus" (I am meaning FEEL) and believe, it helps to align yourself more with God (or your own religion or spiritual belief.) You can use gratitude rocks for many things like health, money, happiness...or just to give thanks!

So, today you will go outside where ever you are or go to a place that brings you peace and happiness. Look for a small rock that fits in your hand. The rock should be smooth, light in weight and feels good when you hold it. When I went out to find mine. I went to my garden and I spotted mine instantly. It was pearl white (my favorite color is white), perfectly rounded and felt perfect when I held it. When you find your perfect rock, you will place it next to your bed. Just before you go to sleep you will pick up your rock and hold it in your hand. You will think about all the good things (big and small) that happened in your day. You will choose the best moment of the day that brought you the most joy. By having to process through your day to find the best moment of your day. You are actually remembering all the wonderful things that had happened to you during the day. It is like you are doing a "Count Your Blessings" list in your mind. And by doing that right before you go to sleep, you are setting yourself up for a more peaceful sleep. Most nights, we are worrying about what happened during our day, who hurt our feelings and what stress we have to face the next day. By doing this simple exercise, you will train your mind to focus on happiness and peace. And will marinate in that good feeling all night, assuring a more happy and peaceful morning!

At first, I felt silly looking for a rock. I thought to myself...Is this worth it? I decided to follow through because it was a challenge I had promised myself  I would complete. I will say that within a week I truly understood the power of this challenge and I still do it every single night and will continue to the rest of my life. I even use my rock during the day and when I pray. Anytime I need to be uplifted and renewed! I feel like I focus more on positive outcomes with it. It is just a symbol, I know. But I have used it so many times in positive ways that it has become a part of my daily life. I even put it in my husband's hand just before he falls asleep. I ask him what the best moment of his day was. And then I know his last thought was something wonderful. And he will sleep more peacefully too! It is a simple thing that has changed my life! I hope it works as well for you!

You will do another "Count Your Blessings" this morning...Think of 10 things you are thankful for. And make sure to FEEL them as you are writing and saying them! If you would like to share them with us, that would be wonderful! You can either post them on A Screaming Good Life Blog or FB Page...And if you want to keep them private, that is great too! Just make sure to follow through the whole 28 days for a full effect! I did receive quite a few emails, where many wanted to share their list with me in private. I am open to doing it that way, as well! If you have not bought the book yet, I would suggest you do. You can always do The "Count Your Blessings" with us and start from Day 1 on A Screaming Good Life Blog when you get the book.

The Magic Gratitude Challenge ~ Day 1

The Magic Gratitude Challenge

So do you believe in MAGIC? I am not speaking about hocus pocus, rabbits being pulled from hats or mystical illusions. I am talking about THE MAGIC OF LIFE!  A life that is experienced with your mind, heart and eyes wide open!

Do you remember the magic of your youth? How everything you saw and touched seemed magical and new? The excitement of the day to come was something that came natural. The world was a peaceful place that you felt safe and secure in. You didn't judge the world around you, you just took it all in. Letting the world be what it was without having to feel like you had to change it in anyway. As time went by, you began school and slowly but surely your magical little world disappeared. Poof like magic it was gone. You began to look at the world differently. With feelings of failure, worry, and disappointment. Even judgement and hatred began to seep in, as well. 

But why? Because we let go of the magic of life. We let the negativity and judgement rule our thoughts and feelings. We closed our minds, hearts and eyes to the life that was meant for us. Mainly out of fear of not being enough or having enough. Well, I am here to say that THE MAGIC OF LIFE still exists. It still lives in all of us. We just have to reconnect to it. And the way to do it is through gratitude! By continually staying connected to the magic of life through gratitude you are actually using The Law Of Attraction the way it was intended. And you are creating the life that you want to live without much effort. All it takes is practice to train your mind to think with gratitude. And by doing this challenge you are continually practicing it for 28 days, which helps to make it a part of your daily life.

Your thoughts and feelings control your mood. By becoming more aware of your thoughts you change everything about your life. GRATITUDE is the key to unlock the MAGIC! You will be amazed about how good you feel as the days go by. Your mind will be clearer and your heart will be filled with more love, happiness and contentment than you could of ever imagined! Your eyes will be on the look out for more things to be grateful for. You will soon see things you have wanted to show up in your life for years, show up almost effortlessly and right on que. That is The Law Of Attraction at it's best! You see The Law of Attraction is always working, whether we want it to or not. Why not have it work for you?

There will be a few challenges that you may think are silly, not useful or not for you. Please, push through them and do it with an open heart. The challenge is set up perfectly to get you to the next step to where you want to be. If you miss a day, step back three days and redo the challenges. So you will experience the full effect of The Magic.

If you have not read through the first chapter, please do so now. You will also need a notebook, journal or use your computer to save all your challenges and your daily "Count Your Blessings" gratitude list. It is important to be able to look back on some of the challenges and it is fun to read back to see what you were grateful for. You will forget some of them as your go. So rereading them will reassure that you stay in the feeling of gratitude for them.

You will need to find some private time in the next few days to write down your dreams. The author, Rhonda Byrne talks in depth about it on page 25-27 of The Magic book. She will ask you to pull it out later in the book. So don't be like me where I had to scramble to get it done...So I could move forward in the challenge. I wrote 15 pages in complete detail of how I saw my life and the things I wanted to come true. I suggest you really get clear on what your dreams are and take it very seriously. Like you are ordering your life from a catalog or menu! ;) Have fun and let your imagine take over! I will say that my biggest areas I wrote about were becoming closer to my family, my family's, as well as my own continued health and longevity, an easy yet, lucrative career, which didn't take time away from my family and my dream home right down to the landscaping and how the pool would look! I wrote about my marriage, kids, extended family, money, hobbies I wanted to try, adventures I dreamed of doing, becoming more spiritual and connected to God, and frequent vacationing to explore this beautiful world! I plan on writing a new one today...I have even more I want to add to my list!

DAY 1: Count Your Blessings

This is something you will do everyday throughout the challenge. I can't stress the importance enough on this daily exercise! You will choose the best time to sit and write what you are grateful for and why. The reason you write "why" you are grateful is that it makes your think and focus on it even more. Creating a powerful feeling that attaches you more to your list of blessings! It works like MAGIC! You will read your list back to yourself and say thank you three times after each blessing you read. By reading it back and saying thank you three times, it creates an even more powerful feeling inside of you. Make sure when you are reading them back, you are feeling the blessing. Visualize and FEEL them fill up in your heart and overflow with as much love and appreciation as you can find.

You will do this daily. I suggest you do it as soon as you get up. So you can start your day off right! If you want to share your list of blessings with us that would be wonderful! It will not only help you more by sharing, it will help others realize some things that they may want to add to their own list of blessings. I call it the "full circle experience"! The more we give, the more we receive! That is one reason I am sharing this experience with you! I believe that when you do good and help others reach their goals...You will be blessed more for it too!

Read chapter 2 before tomorrow...I will see you back here bright and early!!!

A SCREAMING Easy Way To Be Happy Now...{Part 2 Of The Screaming Happy Series}

"A SCREAMING Easy Way To Be Happy Now!" Series~Part 2
(scroll down to read Part 1)
By: Meme Estes, Life Coach/Mentor

~Feelings-Part 2~


Okay, on Tuesday we talked about our feelings. Feelings play a BIG part in how we see our life and this world. We often think feelings are not controllable. But as I discussed in Part 1, they are very controllable and easier to change than you would think. We will be continuing today on the same topic, because we need to "cement" this in our brains before moving on to the rest of the series. If we can get a hold on our thoughts and feelings, the rest is a cakewalk! So put your thinking caps on...Here we go!

Remember that feelings are not the first thing that happens in our brains. It is actually our thoughts that come first. You have a thought and then a feeling emerges from that thought. That feeling then pushes you to do an action. And that action is then the result of the original thought. If you get a hold of your thoughts and feelings, you will be able to create the action and the result you desire. It is that simple. Really.

I want you to be practicing catching your "thoughts in action" and then seeing them "create a feeling" inside of you. It will help you see the patterns that you are in and what you are thinking about most often. (Our minds are thinking on a continual basis, sometimes without us really knowing what we are thinking and feeling exactly. BUT if we train our self to catch the "thought in action" and see it "create a feeling"...We will train our self to take control of our thoughts and feelings. And you won't have to be on that roller coaster of life anymore!)

I have been doing this all week. I realize that I think (worry) a lot about my kids when they are away from me. I think about what could happen to them. I then realized that it creates a paralyzed type of anxiety inside of me. I even stop breathing for a moment or 10...lol!

I decided to try to use "the fake it til' I make it" on this one...This one is a hard one to fake because of the worry and fear I have when they are away is so intense and terrifying. Unlike the other example in Part 1, where I was disappointed in my son, which is a whole different kind of feeling. Definitely a good one to start with. So, when I thought about him leaving (as he was walking out the door yesterday...my heart was racing and I was breathing very shallow, but I knew I was suppose to be "faking it" so I instantly started thinking of positive thoughts about him...I said to myself..."How wonderful that he is getting out in the world"..."That he is becoming a young adult and able to drive himself to where ever he needs to go."..."That he must FEEL such freedom and happiness like I did when I first started driving". I then slipped back into panic again...LOL! Because of another negative thought that popped into my head.

So, I went back to the faking it...This time I closed my eyes, opened my heart and literally FELT my thoughts and feelings. I thought (and felt) about him "literally" out in the world, driving in "Houston" traffic (by seeing him in Houston traffic, it made it more real for me). I pretended to see him managing the traffic with confidence and ease. I asked myself how that "felt" to see him in control and doing a great job on his own. It felt wonderful and freeing! INSTANTLY my chest relaxed and I started breathing normally again.

I realized that even my fearful thoughts that paralyze me are manageable. I wanted to share this story with you to show you that any negative thought is manageable and can be changed. Now, I want you to join me in practicing this new way of thinking to help you control your thoughts, feelings and moods. You don't have to be on that roller coaster anymore. You are in control and you can change your negative thoughts around almost instantly!

In the coming weeks, I am pulling out all my ideas and out of the box ways to become the happy go lucky YOU, so join me in "A SCREAMING Easy Way To Be Happy Now!" Series. You can find them here and on my FB page, A Screaming Good Life. {As always on any of my posts...Make sure to LIKE it, if you like it and COMMENT when you feel something that resonates inside of you! And if you feel like something you read would be helpful to someone else, SHARE it! Make it a full circle experience! It let's me know where I am doing the most good!} If you have a private Life Coaching question, email me @ ascreaminggoodlife@gmail.com!

No Judgement!

Most of us think we are not judgmental, but it is something that is sometimes so subtle in your mind you don't realize it is judgment. Maybe because you never say anything out loud. Like when you pass an over weight person and your mind says something unkind silently or you see a kid with piercings and your mind judges that kid and wonder what kind of parent would allow it. You may judge a religious or a non religious person, a eccentric and far out person, a thought or a belief that someone stands for...The list could go on and on. You can learn to be less judgmental or offended quite easily. This is how I did it. Every time I judge a person or anything that was different from my own beliefs, I would say to myself..."You just judged someone or something." I reflect on why I did judge and where it came from and then I say to myself "NO JUDGMENT!!!" It is working, I am training myself to be less judgmental...I hope you give it a try. It is a refreshing idea that is good for the soul!
