When you change your perception of your life, the world looks different. Optimism and pessimism are two sides of the same coin. Challenges, whether big or little, are given the proper perspective when you learn to be grateful for what you have already. You realize how truly rich your life already is.

Learning to express gratitude can take many forms. The first one that springs to mind is journaling. Another way to show others that you are grateful is to wear jewelry. Every day you wear it, you will be making gratitude a part of your life.

Why Gratitude Jewelry?

Jewelry can be created from various metals like gold and silver or other gems, crystals, and beads. Whatever its composition jewelry can add positive energy to your life through symbolism.

Gratitude jewelry is symbolic of what you feel inside. It reminds you to be grateful for what you have. It could be a pair of earrings, a bracelet or a necklace that you choose to convey this sentiment.

Wearing gratitude makes you constantly aware of what you have. A gratitude journal is a great daily exercise, but it can easily become a task and simply another thing to do on your to do list-that takes away some of the benefit of expressing gratitude. The power is in feeling gratitude, not in simply sitting down and doing something you should do. Wearing a piece of gratitude jewelry is effortless, it makes you feel good and gratitude becomes a part of your entire day.

Remember the theme song from the Rocky movie, “The Eye of the Tiger”?

When Rocky fought his opponent he had the focus of ‘the eye of the tiger’. When that song was written they couldn’t have had any idea the significance it would take on when a new Tiger took the world stage and changed sports forever.

I don’t care if you are a golf fan or a sports fan or if you think there is too much hype over this one particular athlete-yes golfers are athletes.

Tiger Woods is a force to be reckoned with. I could write a book about not only his accomplishments in the sports world, but also his accomplishments as a human being, but many books have already been written. In fact I wrote about Tiger in my book, “Breakthrough to Success.”

Look at what Tiger does in terms of how you live your life. Could you stand up to the level of excellence that Tiger requires of himself? If you raised your expectations, do you think you would be performing head and shoulders above your competition?

I’ve always been a huge fan of his because not only is he a consummate professional, he has such intense focus that you can see it on his face when you watch him on TV. I have also had the pleasure of standing just a few feet from him on more than one occasion and watching that focus in person.

Suddenly, she smiled as she realized the new found freedom.

A kindly older gentleman noticed the sweet, knowing smile turn inward. You know, youll never go back, his voice affirming the knowing she had in her heart and throughout her entire being.

Pause now, and imagine the freedom of a perfectly clear mind.

How did she know? How did she know she had answered one of the big questions?

Yes, this girl knew she had a big answer because she saw what used to be huge problems in her life start to crumble away before her eyes. A sense of childlike wonderment suddenly filled heart.

Empowerment, self-confidence, bold expectation all came rushing in where fear, lack, and dread had existed only moments before.

What could cause such a powerful shift in your perception? What could produce this level of clarity and consciousness?

Love.

Love clears so well because it is the purest energy. When you get to absolute purity there is absolute clarity. And from there you can go anywhere.

The only trick at that point is figuring out what you really want.

And in the asking of, What do I really want?, that clarity of love energy brings the answers to you.

And from there you have inspired action on inspired thought and thats when life starts getting to levels of good that just blow you away. Then you begin to experience this feeling more and more often until it becomes regular feeling.
