Hi,
I am so glad you are here today.
Yes,
You have chosen you and you are in for a treat.
I am Cheryl J.
I like to put an O-Y at the end because I am affirming my joy and I'm sharing that with you today.
Yes,
We're talking about the link between gratitude and abundance.
Very,
Very close.
So let's talk about gratitude.
What are we grateful for?
Well,
When I think about gratitude.
.
.
Cause we thinking about this in the.
Essence of who we are.
Being grateful for who you are.
Being grateful for your universal position.
In this big,
Big world.
Being grateful for the soul.
The being of who you are.
You're a character.
Your voice.
Your talents,
Your ability,
Your life is a gift.
That's the gratitude.
We're also grateful for your creator.
You're here.
You have a creator.
That said you deserve to be here.
We're grateful for that.
And so when we are in that position of gratitude for our being,
Who we are,
Our worth,
Bam.
That's it.
And our creator.
Then what we do is we become aligned.
And we put ourself in position for abundance.
Let me go back for a minute,
Because how do we do that,
Cheryl?
Where we spend time with ourselves.
We spend time with our creator.
We do meditations,
Journaling,
Quiet.
Nature,
There's so many ways and avenues that you can decide to get connected with yourself.
There's no certain path.
What suits you?
Is what you would do.
You are unique.
You can decide.
So when you do that and you develop a confidence and a certainty of who you are,
You are now ready for the abundance.
And the beautiful thing about abundance.
You get a chance to choose.
This is your power to release control.
Why do I want to release control?
You want to release control because you do not want to have you.
DECIDE!
All the gifts.
That are for your good.
Because you don't know that yet.
So now you decide to say hey.
I don't care how,
I don't care when,
I don't care what.
All I care about is that I am aligned with whatever the universe has for my good.
You are now going to put,
You will now put yourself in a position for receiving.
You were received.
And when you're in a position for receiving,
Everything changes.
You immediately change your mood.
First thing.
You cannot be expecting something good to happen to you.
In a sad mood.
That does not even work.
You know that.
But when you are waking up,
You're feeling good about you and who you are and your day that you've been blessed with.
You are expecting.
You change everything through who you come in contact with at the grocery store,
Whatever you may be.
It changes.
Smile on your face.
You are looking for your goods.
It just comes to you.
You don't know how.
You don't know where.
You don't know through whom.
We don't know.
So it just puts you in a really good mood.
And every time you are in that good place and that good energy and that expectancy,
You send a shout out.
To your creator who says,
Hey.
I trust you.
I trust you.
I'm following you.
And so when you are in that space,
You are ready and you are open.
You are aligned.
I am challenging you today.
To wake up.
In the morning.
Do your meditation.
Take your walk in nature,
Whatever you need to ground and center yourself.
And then give yourself the affirmation that says,
I am open to receive.
All that is good for me.
I am expecting.
All the gifts.
That the creator has for me.
And.
.
.
I appreciate it all.
And I do not have to apologize for my abundance.
You know why?
Because you're abundant.
Is a product.
Of your commitment to yourself,
The work that you have done.
It's like the fruit of your labor that you have been planting.
Now you're going to read the harvest.
And boys,
They're gonna be delicious.
You know what?
Another thing that I've learned is spontaneous.
Things happen spontaneous.
In a moment's notice,
Everything changes.
A phone call,
An email,
A conversation with a co-worker,
A situation happens and it's like,
Wow.
So be ready,
Be open.
We don't know.
That's why we lose the control.
That's why we raise our hands and say,
Hey,
I'm ready.
Hey,
Let's do this.
That's the energy that you want.
It feels good.
It's exciting.
And every day you are expected.
So I am so excited to hear about this from you.
I'm living it.
I want you to live it.
Okay?
I shared with you a little story.
It's a little something something,
But it's all big to me because I wasn't expecting anything.
The other day,
A couple of Fridays ago,
I went into my credit union.
And the lady said,
Hey,
This is Love Your Credit Union Day.
I'm like,
All right,
I love my credit union.
She said,
Put your name on this little heart,
And they're going to call two people.
With a pride.
I said,
Okay.
So I put my name on there and you had to write,
What did you love about the credit union?
And I put,
I love my teller because she always takes good care of me.
So I put her name down there.
And then.
.
.
I didn't think that enough of it.
I get home.
And I said,
I know I probably,
I know I won.
I just knew it.
When I get home,
I say that.
I won!
I won.
Well,
Do you know,
She instant messaged me and said,
Cheryl.
They picked your name first.
Come up to the credit union and receive your gift.
You have a gift card waiting for you.
I'm like,
Of course I do.
That's for my good.
That is for my goods.
See,
That expectancy.
I'm like,
Wait,
I'm going to win.
I know it.
It's for my good.
But guess what?
It's for your good too.
We all have the choice.
Of how we want to move throughout our day,
How we want to position this big brain up here to reframe it to think.
So it really,
It's not just for me.
But it's for you as well,
Which is why I'm sharing this with you.
Which is why I will continue to talk to you about things that are for your good,
To position yourself for joy,
For love,
For peace.
Because today is our day.
And this is what we have.
How do you want to live today if this is it?
I choose the joy.
I'm choosing gifts.
I'm choosing expectancy.
I'm choosing excitement.
And when I have that,
I'm going to share that with all around me.
So I change.
And everything else changed.
That's the power that you have.
Let's do it together.
Thank you so much for your time today.
I hope this was a treat for you.
Oh boy,
It was a treat for me.
I love to share.
So I'll talk to you soon and please share with me how this has changed for your good.
And please,
Every day,
When you wake up,
Give yourself permission to say.
I deserve abundance.
No apologies needed.
I am valuable already.
I am part.
Of this great universal collective,
I have a position.
And I am ready to receive.
So that I can give.
Thank you.
Go receive.
You're a gift today.
