s to be grateful for. When I was younger, I remember my father saying that once you get rolling with a gratitude list, it's virtually impossible to feel bad about your life!

So when will you make YOUR list? When will you choose to be happy? (Hint: Don't start your answer with "When...") And while I can't make you happy, I can make you a guarantee: Once you choose happiness for yourself - regardless of any outside circumstances - there's a little force called momentum which will sweep you in a wonderful direction. And you'll find all those things you want will line up to ma

When what? When you win the lottery? When you're married to a Sports Illustrated model? (or maybe George Clooney, for you ladies!) How about when you no longer have those pesky health problems? Or all those bills to pay? When this, when that... when when when. Well, here's some news for you: If you aren't happy right now, with exactly what you've got - and what you haven't got - you're much less likely to attract all the things you want.

When you rely on external, situational events to shape your happiness, you're inviting a recipe for trouble. For starters, the actual outcome you're hoping for might occur - or it might not (or it might occur, but just not as fast as you'd like!) - and if you're banking your bliss on one particular set of circumstances, you take the odds out of your favor.

Also, when you need something to happen in order for you to feel happy, you're really saying, 'Things aren't ok in this moment, just as they are'. For example, if you think "I'll be happy once I have $1,000,000", the underlying message is you're not completely happy without it. Accordingly, The Universe processes your discontent loud and clear - and gives you more of the same. It can end up being a vicious cycle, since a lot of the time (whether we realize it or not) our most intense focus is on what we don't have.

The key here is to bridge the gap between what you want and the actual feelings you're transmitting to The Universe. If you want to meet your soulmate - but feel lonely during the process - then your 'attraction magnet' is out of balance. Remember, Law of Attraction isn't concerned with what you want or don't want - it simply responds to how you're vibrating in any given moment. So if you feel lonely, you're effectively asking for more loneliness (even though that isn't actually what you want). It's your energy which is the critical piece of the puzzle, and in this case, your energy isn't aligned with your desire.

If you truly want what you say you want, you MUST close that gap. Rather than wanting, wishing, and waiting for your happiness, make a choice to be happy. (Sound easy? Well it is, but for some reason, we like to make things difficult for ourselves!) Even though your current situation may not be your fairy-tale ideal, find things to be grateful for.
