The day we filmed James Ray sharing his powerful exercise of gratitude 1 is one I will never forget. From that day on, I made James' process my life. Every morning, I do not get out bed until I have felt the feelings of gratitude for this brand new day and all I am grateful for in my life. Then as I get out of bed, when one foot touches the ground I say, "Thank," and "you" as my second foot touches the ground. With each step I take on my way to the bathroom, I say "Thank you." I continue to say and feel "Thank you" as I am showering and getting ready. By the time I am ready for the day, I have said "Thank you" hundreds of times.
我永远忘不了我们拍摄詹姆士.雷分享他的“强效感恩练习”的那天。从那一天开始,我就把詹姆士的方法用在我的生活中。每天早上,除非 我感受到了感恩的感觉——对这崭新的一天,以及对生命中我所感激的一切——否则我不会起床。然后当我下床,一只脚碰到地面的时候,我会说“谢谢”;换另一只脚碰到地面时,则说“您”。走到盥洗室的每一步,我会说“谢谢您”;在我淋浴和整装的时候,我持续地说着、并去感觉“谢谢您”。当我准备好迎接这一天时,我已经说“谢谢您”上百次了。
As I do this, I am powerfully creating my day and all that it will contain. I am setting my frequency for the day and intentionally 2 declaring the way I want my day to go, rather than stumbling out of bed and letting the day take control of me. There is no more powerful way to begin your day than this. You are the creator of your life, so begin by intentionally creating your day!
当我这么做,我就是在强而有力地创造我的一天和当中的事物。我是在设定这一天的频率,并且有意地宣告这一天我所要的方式;而不是踉跄地离开床,让这一天掌控我。开始一天的生活,没有比这更有力量的方法了。你是自己生命的创造者,所以,开始有意识地创造你的生活吧!
Gratitude was a fundamental part of the teachings of all the great avatars throughout history. In the book that changed my life, The Science of Getting Rich, written by Wallace Wattles in 1910, gratitude is its longest chapter. Every teacher featured in The Secret uses gratitude as part of his or her day. Most of them begin their day with thoughts and feelings of gratitude.
历史上所有伟大人物的基本教诲之一,就是“感恩”。华勒思.华特斯在1910年写下那本改变我一生的书《致富的科学》(The Science of Getting Rich),该书最长的篇章,就是<感恩>那一章。所有在《秘密》里担任主角的导师,全都把“感恩”当作他们生活的一部分;他们大多数是以“感恩”的思想和感觉,作为一天开始。<感恩>
Joe Sugarman, a wonderful man and successful entrepreneur, watched the film The Secret and contacted me. He told me his favorite part was the gratitude process, and that his use of gratitude had contributed to all he had achieved in his life. With all the success Joe has attracted to himself, he continues to use gratitude every day, even for the smallest things. When he gets a parking space he always says and feels, "Thank you." Joe knows the power of gratitude and all it has brought to him, and so gratitude is his way of life.
一位很杰出、成功的企业家乔. 史格曼,在看过《秘密》影片之后与我联系。他告诉我,“感恩的方法”是影片中他最喜欢的部分;而且他一生的功成名就,全都归功于运用感恩的方法,即使最小的事物也不例外。当他有车位可停,他总是会说出、并且去感觉“谢谢您”。他知道感恩的力量与其所带来的一切,于是感恩就成了他的生活方式。
With all that I have read and with all that I have experienced in my own life using The Secret, the power of gratitude stands above everything else. If you only do one thing with the knowledge of The Secret, use gratitude until it becomes your way of life.
所有我读过的,以及所有我在生命中运用这个秘密的经验,感恩的力量都胜过其他一切。如果在这秘密的知识当中,你只想做一件事,那么就去“感恩”吧,直到它成为你的生活方式为止。
