Magic

I haven't been able to read much lately, but I found this one a couple weeks ago, and decided to go through it finally.  It's been sitting on a shelf, lonely and unread, waiting to work it's magic on me.  

And it has.  

Now, if you've read The Secret, you know it can be somewhat repetitive.  That's not necessarily a bad thing when dealing with a life-changing subject, so it didn't surprise me that this one reads similarly.  You get a small introduction, and then you're set on a 28-Day Challenge based solely on gratitude.  It's not the usual write 5 things each day either.  You're given a different subject every day and a list of to-do's.  

I've tried to do things like this before, and gratitude is always on my mind, but there is something about this book and being ready to really go through the process.  It's different this time, and while I still have some habits to break, I can feel a difference every morning that passes.

I think after so many years of living with my depressing limited thoughts, this is literally a breath of fresh air.  Is it for everyone?  Probably not, but that's okay.  

The one thing I've learned this past year is that what works for me isn't necessarily going to work for everyone.  If there is one thing you can take from my recent posts is that gratitude really can change your life.  How you get there is completely your choice, but this book will definitely help you.  I know I touched upon this in my last post, but never mentioned the book and after reading this morning, I thought I'd share it with you.

And that is my #MondayMotivation for you. 

Happy Monday :)
