Every day we ask for something, whether it's silently or aloud or to a friend. We ask for more time, or the right partner, or to win the lottery. We ask people to do things for us and we sometimes ask too much of ourselves. Our thoughts are filled with asking for good health, happiness, and the like.

We've all heard the saying "Ask and ye shall receive", but maybe they got it mixed up in the translation and it's supposed to be "Say Thank You and you will receive". What if we were to stop asking and begin saying "Thank You" when we wish for something? Wouldn't that be a better way of truly expecting the results? By asking we allow our mind to believe it's a possibility that we won't get what we desire. Allowing our minds to have even the slightest possibility of not getting what we desire is like having the tiniest hole in a balloon filled with water. The skin is no longer solid to hold in the water thus allowing it to drain away.

Today was the first time I'd run out of gas in 15 or so years. When I got in the car I knew that I might have just enough to get to the gas station, but it was iffy at best. I drove toward the closest gas station which I knew was at the bottom of a hill. The car was sputtering and hesitating and so I put it in Neutral and coasted to the station driveway ramp and it stopped. I set the expectation by saying "Thank you for getting me to the gas station" once I knew the situation and I made it to the gas station. What I should have said was "Thank you for getting me to the pumps at the gas station". It was as if I set the expectation that I would make it there by saying Thank you rather than asking.

How often have you wanted someone to notice something you've done and just say a simple thank you? This tiny phrase shows our gratitude towards what we receive and by saying Thank You to another you allow others to begin saying it to you. Basically it's about receptivity and gratitude. Are we receptive to truly getting what we ask for and are we grateful for what we get.

When I work with a client, whether with Feng Shui, Prosperity Consciousness, or Energy Medicine I always ask the client if they truly want the results they are requesting. Then when the work is complete I ask them to give thanks for the results that have been set in motion. If someone doesn't believe in the work or is not receptive then again it's like the balloon with the hole. Doubt creates holes and receptivity in the beginning and the end is like wiping away doubt.

As you walk, or run, through your day begin by saying Thank You internally. Next thing you know you will be saying Thank You out loud then you'll begin seeing more rapid results when you ask for something. As a closing thought about asking; ask for what YOU really want and not what someone else wants for you.

In Gratitude and Thanks
