opportunities, situations, and relationships that will perpetuate this wonderful ?high? feeling. The good news for you is that you can radically change your life by being grateful. The principle of gratitude is very powerful; it will inspire you to appreciate everything in your life. Being grateful now for the things you want to manifest confirms to the Universe that it is already yours, and you are open to receiving it. Gratitude energizes the Law of Attraction enabling you to manifest quickly. When you thank God in advance for that which you choose to experience in your reality, you, in effect, acknowledge that it is already there.

I remember I had a client who was downsized from his very high-powered career position. He had worked for a Fortune 500 company for 20 years as a successful executive and was terminated because of organizational restructuring. By the time he began coaching with me, his anger had turned into rage. He was very bitter and resentful about his termination. One of the first things I had him to practice was gratitude. I asked him to take a look at what remained in his life and begin to be radically grateful. Even though he was very resistant, he made a decision to practice gratitude during his morning exercise. He would run for one hour. During his run, he began being grateful for what he did have. After about two weeks, he noticed a change in his attitude and mindset. He realized he felt better emotionally and mentally. He noticed that gratitude helped him to focus on all of the good rather than the fact that he had been downsized. He began to be open to the unlimited and abundant career opportunities that were coming his way. Radical gratitude became a daily habit for him and of course, he landed his dream job. His radical gratitude actually helped him produce a high six figure income. In other words, gratitude actually speeds up the Law of Attraction because it is a powerful energy that produces immediate results.
