What constitutes as a miracle to one person may go unnoticed by another. A few cents for food and a beat up Volvo might be a curse to an affluent family, but to me, they were blessings. At the time, a simple turkey meant survival for another few days. It is easy to overlook or discount the little events as they occur. That’s why I call everything that is positive that comes my way—a miracle. I never leave anything out, because I want a steady stream of wonderfully nice things happening to me every single day. And when I take the time to record them in my miracle journal, I seem to attract even more.
The moral of the mini miracle is to never take anything for granted. I find that when I don’t pay any attention, my power to create, declines. But when I track them and flex my miracle muscles, I become a magnet for events that uplift me.
When I do tune into my abilities, I have observed that I go from experiencing mini miracles once in awhile, to mini miracles on a regular basis, and finally to creating them every week. And once I honed my skills and conquered the mini miracle so that it’s second nature, my abilities increase. I am then able to create something larger than myself.
The ‘Lucky’ Miracle - The second type of miracle is what some consider luck, good fortune, or sheer coincidence. For instance, you might say that if someone wins a car, they did it completely by chance. If you pick up the phone to call your sister, and you hear her voice before you dial, this could be a coincidence. When you find a front parking space at Costco on a Saturday or if you catch all green lights on your way to work, you might be considered lucky. In fact, anything that’s too good to be true, we reason, must have been a case of good luck. After all, that guy did it where others did not, and how could he have control over that?
What many successful people already know is that they have control over their destiny—even when it comes to winning the lottery. They know that they have the power to create their lives, just as they like it. To become lucky, in the real sense, is to become purposeful, mindful, and intuitive, listening to yourself and going with your own sense of rhythm towards a destination. Individuals who are consistently lucky have a disciplined and focused approach on the inside. They are usually following a quest, a voice, an intuitive gut feeling, and they are focused on seeing it through. They have created the mindset and the soil where they will soon grow their miracle.
Allow me to let you in on a little secret: The universe will send us what we ask for.
I classify it as a miracle, because as you create this aura of winning, sometimes it appears as though the good luck occurs at just the right time, when actually, it’s you making it happen the entire time, know it or not. And that’s amaaaaaaaazing!
