Gratitude is a common thread that runs through both AA literature and thinking, and almost every book or teacher of the law of attraction.
When your sponsor nags you to make a gratitude list, they are not really nagging-they are trying to impart to you one of the most powerful tools for your recovery, and for improving every aspect of your life.
The first time you start a gratitude list can be a bit daunting, especially if you are new to recovery and are gingerly sifting through the wreckage of what was once your life.
It can be hard to feel grateful for anything.
So start with the basics; be grateful for the absence of a hangover, the air in your lungs, the light of day, the promise of a sober day….
You will find that once you start a list and have a few items on it, more will spring to mind with ever increasing frequency.
So why is gratitude so important from a Law of Attraction point of view?
Rhonda Byrne’s Secret Gratitude Book
“As you focus on gratitude and think, speak and feel gratitude, you are transforming your energy frequency intoone of the most powerful and highest frequencies of all. Gratitude attracts like energy of gratitude to it, so as you are feeling grateful you are powerfully bringing like energies to you, which will have you experience more things to be grateful for. In other words you will magnetize to you the energy of people, circumstances and events that will bring good into your life.
It is impossible to bring more good into your life if you are feeling ungrateful for what you have. Why? Because the thoughts and feelings you emit as you feel ungrateful attract a life filled with more things to feel ungrateful about. Whether it is jealousy, resentment, dissatisfaction, or feelings of “not enough”, those negative emotions cannot bring you what you want. They are blocking your own good from coming to you. If you want a new car but you are not grateful for the car you have, that will be the dominant frequency you are sending out, and you cannot attract something better. On the other hand, if you feel grateful for the car you have now, you are powerfully summoning an even better car to you.”
