Create the Lifestyle of Your Dreams

Step 1: Make Peace & Appreciate

 

It all begins with appreciation.

Practicing the Fine Art of Appreciation

The fastest and easiest way to jump start the creation of a lifestyle that is comfortable and prosperous is to come to peace with “what is” and begin to appreciate anything you like about “what is”.

At first, some find this idea unpalatable. If you are at peace and love “what is” about your lifestyle, where is the impetus to move toward something new? The answer lies in the Law of Attraction and the two basic rules that describe it.

 

BASIC LAWS OF ATTRACTION

What you resist persists.

What you focus on flourishes.

 

What you resist persists.

Change is inevitable. No matter how it seems, things change. When you resist “what is”, it persists. Although it appears that things are remaining the same, in actuality, you are creating “what is” over and over again.

 

Making Peace with “What Is”

Like releasing a parking brake before you drive, making peace with “what is” frees up a tremendous amount of stored energy by releasing resistance. Making peace allows you to begin moving in the direction of your heart’s desire.

"I am where I am and that's OK." - Abraham

In the words of Abraham, “I am where I am and that’s OK.” The sooner you make peace, the sooner you will be on the road to the lifestyle you desire.

Make Peace

Make peace with “what is” by simply allowing it to be OK that you are where you are today. You intend to move toward something different but today you are where you are and that's OK.

Remember this quote that was quite popular some years back?

"Today is the first day of the rest of your life."

 

Start Anew Today

Start anew today. Today is a beautiful starting point- a launching pad for tomorrow. Make peace with "what is" today so that you may begin to move easily in the direction of your heart's desire.

 

Making Peace with Your Lifestyle

If you want to create a lifestyle that is comfortable and prosperous, make peace with the lifestyle you now experience.

"I live in a modest home today. I am where I am and that's OK."

"I drive an older car today. I am where I am and that's OK."

 

What You Focus on Flourishes

When you first make peace and then begin to focus on the wonderful things found in “what is”, you get more of those wonderful things.

Appreciation leads to creation.

 

Appreciate to Create

When you begin to notice and appreciate those things that you love, they flourish and grow. Even in the most awkward of situations, you are resourceful enough to find something to appreciate. Start with one thing. Then find another and another. Allow the gratitude to grow.

With each appreciation, you will notice the momentum build. It will become easier and easier and easier.

Start by simply finding one thing that you appreciate about “what is”. It doesn't have to be an earth shattering revelation. It can be something small or even somewhat trivial. Just start wherever you are. It will get easier; I promise.

If you want to create a great lifestyle, appreciate the lifestyle you now experience by finding something- anything that you love- about your lifestyle. "I have a roof over my head and healthy food to eat."

 

Allow the Gratitude to Expand

Allow the gratitude to expand by noticing all of the things that you love about “what is”.

If you want to create a great lifestyle, notice all of the things that you appreciate about your current lifestyle. “I love my home. It is safe and comfortable. I love the yard. It provides privacy and a green buffer around me. I love my car. It is safe, reliable and comfortable. Etc.”

 

Beads of Appreciation- Seeds of Change; Practicing the Fine Art of Appreciation

There is a very beautiful and simple ritual for making peace with "what is" and practicing the art of appreciation. Using a string and beads, you create a bracelet (or even a necklace) that represents the gratitude you have for your lifestyle. Let each bead represent something that you appreciate about your lifestyle. String one bead at a time and express your appreciation as you do so. Wear the bracelet (or necklace) as a tangible reminder of all the ways that you appreciate your lifestyle.

Our Beads of Appreciation- Seeds of Change kits come with the book Practicing the Fine Art of Appreciation, instructions for making an appreciation bracelet and all of the materials you need to make one bracelet of your own. To represent "The Blue Pearl" (the physical manifestation of the soul), we've chosen to provide you with fire polished cobalt blue beads. To remind you that all is done in a spirit of joy and freedom, we also enclose a special Sterling dolphin charm.

Remember...Rome was not built in a day.

Rome was not built in a day. In just the same way, you did not create the lifestyle you experience, the body you inhabit, your current financial state, the relationship you're in or anything else in "your world" in one single day.

Lighten up. Go easy on yourself. Things will shift. Simply come to peace, and gently head in the direction of your desire.

GO ON
