Gratitude sets the Law of Attraction to work for you.

“An attitude of gratitude makes a magnitude of difference. Daily does it.”

The Gravity of Gratitude

Gravity is described as a force that draws objects to its center. An invisible magnetic central core, gravity keeps all things in balance and grounded.

Daily gratitude becomes a core gravity at the center of your life, naturally attracting and anchoring more good to you, and from within you. Once gratitude becomes a way of life, life changes for the better, no matter what happens.

Gratitude is magnetic; it attracts more good for which to be grateful.
