Once you've metabolized this concept, once your subconscious mind gets it, you won't ever need anything else. Joy and laughter, exaltation (elation, exhilaration, rapture, excitement, bliss) are states of mind which attract every Good thing in this universe. If you don’t believe it, try this: Make a mental note of when Good things happen to you and you will discover they happen when you're in an elevated state of mind. And extraordinary things happen when you're in a joyful or exalted state of mind—or in love… If you still don't believe me... just notice when the phone rings, for starters. There are no coincidences. When you're down in the dumps, the complainers never fail to call. But as soon as your mood picks up, somebody happy calls to tell you some good news. Now why is it like this? Because like attracts like and Life is a Mind Game. If you really are able to grasp this, then you'll understand why exaltation is a magnet for all Good. Since like attracts likes, your present situation always reflects your present state of mind. Keep On the Beam Which makes it all very simple. It means that to have a wonderful life, to be a great success at whatever you're doing whether it's washing windows, selling toothbrushes, writing advertising copy or managing a mega-company, all you've got to do is keep on the beam. And by keeping on the beam, I mean all you've got to do is keep your mental energy high. And as I said, high states of mental energy include the praiseful, exalted and grateful state of mind plus all the other states just mentioned like joy and laughter... and of course love and kindness, compassion, delight and happiness. In short: All of the wonderful deep feelings and emotions that make living a joy. Compared to keeping your mental energy high, everything else is of minor importance.
As You talk about keeping mental energy I have worked for acceaving this. And one thing I havnt been able to figure out is: Why-O-Why is it so hard to say thank You. Forexample You tell someone she looks really nice, forexample. And she doesnt answer or You wish to make a business offer. And also no answer. Like I was writng a spam or something. Like my offer would pancrupt ones company. The thing is. I know there might be no answer, still in natural bases its seems to lower everyones metal energy, i mean everyones who has a plan, or emotions. "Thank You" dosnt compel to nothing... So sometimes people are ignorant, I know I have been. What would happen if we wouldnt be? I mean at all.

Well Mikkel... the deal is you are doing this for YOU! How other people react is up to them... Your joy is your joy... that is why the Wise say we should always seek to do the very best we can - and then leave the results to the Universe (which is what happens anyway!) Love Barbara
