The force of love will change your life so fast that you will scarcely believe it!

  

Be grateful for what you have now. As you begin to think about all the things in your life you are grateful for, you will be amazed at the never-ending thoughts that come back to you of more things to be grateful for.

      
To create the life of your dreams, the time has come for you to love You.  Focus on Your joy. Do all the things that make You feel good. Love You, inside and out. Everything will change in your life, when you change the inside of you. Allow the Universe to give you every good thing you deserve, by being a magnet to them all. To be a magnet for every single thing you deserve, you must be a magnet of love.
  
When you want to attract something into your life, make sure your actions don’t contradict your desires. Think about what you have asked for, and make sure that your actions are mirroring what you expect to receive, and that they’re not contradicting what you‘ve asked for. Act as if you are receiving it. Do exactly what you would do if you were receiving it today, and take actions in your life to reflect that powerful expectation. Make room to receive your desires, and as you do, you are sending out that powerful signal of expectation.
  
  
If you’re feeling good, then you’re creating a future that’s on track with your desires. If you’re feeling bad, you’re creating a future that’s off track with your desires. As you go about your day, the law of attraction is working in every second. Everything we think and feel is creating our future. If you’re worried or in fear, then you’re bringing more of that into your life throughout the day.
   

Instead of focusing on the world's problems, give your attention and energy to trust, love, abundance, education and peace.
  
  
Thoughts are magnetic, and thoughts have a frequency. As you think thoughts, they are sent out into the Universe, and they magnetically attract all like things that are on the same frequency. Everything sent out returns to the source--you.

     

It is impossible to bring more into your life if you are feeling ungrateful
about what you have. Why? Because the thoughts and feelings you
emit as you feel ungrateful are all negative emotions.

Your life right now is a reflection of your past thoughts. That includes all
the great things, and all the things you consider not so great. Since you
attract to you what you think about most, it is easy to see what your
dominant thoughts have been on every subject of your life, because
that is what you have experienced.  Until now!

   

Pure love has no conditions or boundaries. Love does not restrain itself
or hold back. Love gives all the time and doesn't ask for anything in return.
Love is a continuous flow without any limits. And all of this is inside you.

   

Absolutely everything you experience in your life is a result
of what you have given in your thoughts and feelings,
whether you realize you have given them or not.

Yes, life can be mysterious and confusing--but there's much of life that's actually rather dependable and reliable.  Some principles apply to life in so many different contexts that they can truly be called universal--and learning what they are and how to approach them and use them can teach us some of the most important lessons that we've ever learned.
My doctorate is in Teaching and Learning.  I use it a lot when I teach at school, but I also do my best to apply what I've learned to the life I'm living, and to observe how others live their lives.  What makes them happy or unhappy, stressed or peaceful, selfish or generous, compassionate or arrogant?  In this book, I've done my best to pass on to you what I've learned from people in my life, writers whose works I've read, and stories that I've heard.  Perhaps these principles can be a positive part of your life, too!
Universal Principles of Living Life Fully.  Awareness of these principles can explain a lot and take much of the frustration out of the lives we lead.
