Just imagine how much abundance would flow into your life!
What I have experienced without fail is that when I am more generous with other people, I feel incredibly good, fabulous in fact! And when I'm more generous with myself, I feel better too.
This may come as a surprise, but I'm not talking about being generous in a financial way - I want you to consider how you could Be More Generous with your time, giving information, lending an ear, offering assistance to someone... there are so many ways to Be More Generous that are so helpful for other people!
There is a major guarantee I can give you when you commit yourself to Be More Generous - you will feel better instantly. No matter how small a task you do for another, how kind you are, in what tiny instance you give of yourself, your spirits will be lifted... this I will guarantee.
Why is it that when we try to Be More Generous we feel so incredibly good? Because being generous is a vibration - the same way that being or feeling stressed, uptight or selfish is an energy or vibration. The fact that when we are more generous, the universe hears our vibration and becomes more generous with us by delivering more abundance is a side benefit - it's not the point of the behavior. (Although, admittedly, it's a really, really, really nice side benefit!)
How do we actually get started and Be More Generous? Easily - just do it! Or, if you need a step by step process:
(1) Think about the value of being more generous…
(2) Make the decision that you're going to do it!
(3) Start looking for a variety of ways to be more generous to others.
(4) Be More Generous every chance you get!
I was raised to be kind and generous, but in the midst of being too busy and overwhelmed, I notice that I sometimes "forget" or ignore opportunities to slow down and Be More Generous to loved ones or strangers in my life. I have always loved how being generous feels, I have always valued what it means to others, but I haven't always made Being More Generous my number one priority - even though it is my number one value. And it should be both.
I have been given so much in my life, and I have the time, space and spirit to give generously to others. I'm not saying not to be generous financially, I hope you are if you are able to - I'm saying I want you to focus on a variety of ways to Be More Generous to other people in your life because generosity is about your spirit not money. It's especially fun to Be More Generous with strangers!
So what gets in your way of Being more Generous? Some of you will say that you don't have the financial means to be generous, which is why I'm suggesting you start with being generous in other ways, until you are able to be generous with your finances. In my experience, what gets in people's way of Being More Generous is hurrying, being preoccupied, and being too focused on yourself or a problem you are troubled by in your life. Start to consider and notice what someone else might need - this will help change your focus so you are more aware of others.
We know by now that the Universe hears our vibration not our words. We have all heard from Law of Attraction teachers that we will get back to us what we are "broadcasting" to the Universe. So start a new habit and Be More Generous - you know your vibration will improve! And seeing other people benefit from your generosity is, well, priceless.
Remember that our thoughts are real
and carry energy...
Our vibration matters!
So I invite you to Be More Generous in your feelings, attitudes, behavior, and your energy!
Your vibration of abundance will improve dramatically when you feel inspired to Be More Generous...
When we raise our vibration by focusing on something joyful, the Law of Attraction will offer us more to feel good about, which raises our vibration again and attracts even more abundance - it's an energetic cycle! But when we are focused on something negative, we stay in resistance to abundance. Remember, even releasing a little bit of resistance by learning how to Be More Generous means you will automatically become more congruent with the desires you have been asking for from Law of Attraction and these desires will now have the room to show up in your life.
Use this opportunity to clear any of your conflicts about being outrageously abundant in every part of your life.
If you think there are any negative consequences to my invitation to Be More Generous, please use EFT on your answers to the "yes, but" questions I usually ask:
What is the 'downside' to Being More Generous?
What is the 'upside' of being self-centered or preoccupied?
How does it serve you to keep doing what you've been doing?"
Once you know the upside of staying where you are or the downside of getting what you want, you can treat these "yes, buts" with simple EFT sequences, change your energy, and become completely congruent with a successful life.
Here's what I know...
People who are inspired to Be More Generous improve their vibration -- then they attract more success and abundance!
Below are my favorite benefits to being open to and inspired to Be More Generous:
(1) When you are willing to Be more Generous to others, you will raise your vibration immediately, and you will enjoy watching the other person's vibration improve as well! (Remember, the Law of Attraction "hears" the vibration of everything you are emitting energetically.)
(2) When you eliminate your blocks to Be More Generous, you will notice an instantaneous lightness of your mood and spirit. Your expectations will improve, your thoughts will be more optimistic, and therefore, you will improve the energy of the results that show up in your life. (This is another Law of Attraction tool to unlock the key to abundance.)
(3) When you start to Be More Generous, you will enjoy the vibration without looking for anything in return. You will love being released from looking for a reward, and your overall energy and vibration will be more unified around attracting abundance. This means that the Universe will have an easier time "delivering" to you what you have been asking for into your life.
As Law of Attraction teachers say -- it's all energy. The Law of Attraction sends you situations that have the same energy and vibration you are putting out... so when you start feeling inspired and acting on the value to Be More Generous, the Universe will bring you more opportunities that match this feeling on an energetic basis.
It's your choice... Be More Generous and enjoy the successes that flow into your life!
Below you will find EFT setup phrases to help you be inspired to release your blocks to being able to attract what you want into your life.
When you change your vibration,
