One can live a life of hope. One can hope to live a prosperous life. One can hope for physical well-being. One can hope for the world to come to an amicable agreement regarding non-hostile interaction.

What does hope reveal? Are you thankful that hope exists? Does it fill you with excitement, freedom or joy? Do you remember being thankful for hoping your peers, family members or friends become amazing, well-balanced or healthy people?

Every word carries a vibration. When thought or spoken these currents travel outward; much like a boomerang, what is stated returns to the sender. They also travel inward; your body receives the emotional essence of your thoughts or speech.

Let’s test this theory.

Say to a co-worker, friend or relative: No problem.

Next, say to a co-worker, friend or relative: You’re welcome.

Of these two final words (problem/welcome) which word makes you feel enriched? In the first statement, the word problem carries a lower vibration. Can you feel how the word rests on your heart; it feels sad and pitches less than uplifting affects. Welcome carries a higher vibration, which elevates your mood. It propels encouragement while sparking buoyant emotions.

The word hope offers a lower conscious reaction. It negates and cancels declarations. This word is presented at churches, in wellness literature and stated in the news and daily salutations are filled with: I hope you feel better. I hope you find a job. We hope the best for you. Senses cringe when hearing or reading this word. It deflates the messenger’s intent, as if confirming that hope is our path toward achievement and liberation.

Consider these questions: Would you rather hope for success or manifest your success? Would you rather be thankful for your well-being, or wait around until hope fulfills your request?

Become a master manifestor by choosing words that stimulate your higher consciousness. Expediting your success depends on your persona, on how you state your aspirations and on the energy you splay outwardly.

Let’s improve our emotional mindfulness.

Every word has power. Thoughts and sound circulate influence. Absolute conciseness provides the sender with the unabashed capacity to manifest freedom, joy and success. Conversely, when pleading (hoping) for success, consider options to accurately broadcast thoughts and speech.

One can choose to implement change, observe the results while impacting society. There are vast thankful qualities that arise when altering your process. Welcoming the arrival of well thought out ambitions, each articulated manifestation, each call to rise above negativity stimulates emotional thankfulness. With appreciation and gratitude these moments elevate one toward the next level of exhilaration.
