Today's thought from the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
The universe is full of magical things, patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.
-- Eden Phillpotts
We hear others talk about how they got out of debt. We see people who have peace and serenity in their lives, who have healthy relationships and dream jobs. We realize that being debt-free means more than not having to pay as many bills. In others, we see what we have to look forward to by changing our behaviors. We get inspired and excited to be debt-free. We start working the program diligently, expecting to see miracles in our lives any minute but nothing happens.
We stop focusing on the outcome of our new ways and stay mindful of what we've committed to - no debting one day at a time. When we do this, we give energy to everything good. If we stop focusing on it, it will flow to us.
Today I will trust that when I act in a mindful and honorable way, everything good will follow.
