Give a Gift of a Spiritual Book this Holiday Season

Today is Black Friday and people are filling the shopping malls in search of the perfect deal on the perfect Christmas gift. The current headlines on this shopping frenzy is that one Los Angeles woman let loose with pepper spray, shots rang out in a NC shopping malls, and fights have broiken out  between Black Friday deal shoppers in many malls around the nation.

Wouldn’t you rather avoid all that?

You can if you do at least some of your shopping at Amazon.com this year. You can even maximum the return on your gift buying investment if you gift your Black Friday deals aficionado with a spiritual book (or 2 or 3).

Below are 4 books that I have personally read and think are fabulous. If you want to order them, or any other product through Amazon, please order through any Amazon link on this blog. As I am an Amazon Associate, I get a slight fee when you make a purchase through me. If you enjoy my blog, please help support it by making a purchase from Amazon through me.

The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra

This is by far my favorite book by Deepak Chopra. In easy to understand language, Deepak outlines the 7 spiritual laws that, if followed, will make you successful in all areas. The highlight of each law is a list of action steps that you can take immediately to make your dreams a reality. The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success can be read in one sitting, and it is so effective at helping you accomplish your goals. It is also so small that you can make it a stuffing stocker for Christmas. You simply cannot go wrong by purchasing this book.

Law of Attraction by Michael J. Losier

Law of Attraction by Michael Losier is another great book. Losier succinctly sums up the basics of the subtitle: The Science of Attracting More of What you Want and Less of What you Don’t, and he gives you clear instructions on how to do this. He also tells you how to find out what it is you truly want, as most of us don’t know what that is. This is another books that can be read in one sitting but one that you will return to again and again as you begin to manifest awesome things in your life. If you follow the directions in Losier’s book, this may be the last Christmas of financial struggle for you.

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

If you have never read the classic book, Think and Grow Rich, you have to buy it. Long before the term “law of attraction” was coined, Napoleon Hill wrote about this then mysterious power. I think the book is more than 50 years old and it’s still in print for a reason—the principles outlined in this book work. This is a book that is also small enough to be a stocking stuffer this Christmas.

The Attractor Factor by Joe Vitale

The Attractor Factor is another effective, easy-to-read book that will help you to manifest your desires. If you don’t know who Joe Vitale is, you must have lived under a rock for the past 10 years or so. Once homeless, Joe is now called “Mr. Fire” for his ability to motivate others. The Attractor Factor would be a great read for you and a great Christmas gift for a friend.

So order one or more of these books through the included links today. Read them for yourself. Give them as Christmas gifts. If you read any of these books yourself, please send comments on what you thought of them. I would be so interested to hear your viewpoints.

Merry Christmas!

The Secret of Attracting Money

Do you want to know what the secret of attracting money really is? Okay, here goes--

GIVE IT AWAY.

That’s right. Give it away. According to Jesus, Buddha, Joe Vitale, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra and many others, giving your money away is the only way to attract money back to yourself.

Although this secret of attracting money is foreign to most of us who have been raised to believe that the only way to make money is to work hard, conserve your cash outflow, deposit a certain percentage of your income to a savings account, diversify your investment portfolio, etc., etc., etc., giving your money away is the real secret of attracting wealth.

AND it’s far easier than working hard, using coupons for every purchase you make, and watching the stock market. But there are a few rules for giving your money away in order to make money.

How to Give Money to Receive Money

The secret to giving money so that you will attract money is quite simple. Follow these tips and watch the money start rolling in!

1. Give ten percent. Give at least 10 percent of your income to those people, places, and organizations that give you spiritual or inspirational nourishment. This concept, of course, is the familiar Biblical injunction of tithing. But you don’t have to put all--or even any--of this money into the offering plate at church each week.

In his eBook, Attract Money Now, Joe Vitale explains that your source of inspiration “can come from anywhere. Perhaps it’s a waitress working two jobs to go back to school or maybe it’s a performer with awe- inspiriting talent. It could be the cab driver offering an uplifting story, or the woman at church who always thinks of others. It can be anybody.”

2. Give generously. Any amount of money that you give away will come back to you multiplied many times over--guaranteed. But if you give just a little amount when you could have given much more, your return will be much less as well. So give generously.

3. Do not expect anything back. When you give your money to those people, places, and organizations that inspire you, do not expect anything in return--especially from the recipient(s) of your gift. Your only motive in giving should be the pure joy of helping others.

4. Give Joyously. Just giving money--by rote--is not enough to attract money back to you. Rather, your attitude is all important here. Put emotion into your giving. Allow yourself to feel the pinpricks of excitement as you imagine your gift helping that person or organization. Get excited by your ability to help a fellow spirit that is, like you, having a human experience.

The Bible Says it Best

The Holy Bible says it best (as usual). Here are two of my favorite bible verses that refer to the spiritual law whereby you may attract money by giving money.

Luke 6:38 (King James Version) - Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

Malachi 3:10 (King James Version) - Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

Good luck and let me know about your experiences with this secret of attracting money.
