Balancing greatness and gratefulness

It's only a matter of moving the "e" to get from "grateful" to "greatful" and back again...

The Law of Attraction advocates focus on the outcome we want and trust in the universe to arrange itself in order to create that. The Secret outlines a 3-step process:

1. Ask for what you want.
2. Expect the Universe to answer.
3. Be ready to receive what you want.

The first two are about creating "greatness". The last is about "gratefulness", not retrospectively but in advance. Many philosophies, and very few religions, know what gratitude really is. It is about being thankful for what is.

The secret to creating the future is being thankful for what you want, as if you already have it.
