This month, Vitale & Company is excited to spotlight one of our favorite books for cultivating year-round gratitude: A Year Without Fear: 365 Days of Magnificence by Tama Kieves. This book is a powerful tool to working on daily presence. Kieves helps you focus on being where your feet are in the here and now rather than getting caught up in distractions and future worries. Whether follow the daily readings as intended or open to a random page, the message always resonates and offers something meaningful to reflect on.
Rather than simply telling you how great this book is, we want to show you. Below are some of our favorite excerpts from Kieves that resonate with the season of November, embracing our themes of gratitude and reflection.
Gratitude ends fear. You were never meant to focus on what you didn’t get. You were meant to focus on all that you have been given.
Today I believe in what is true about me, even if it’s not here yet.
The more you find gratitude for the year that has been, the more you will delight in the one that arrives.
Slow down. We live in a world of frantic information and urgency. Nothing great comes from fearful efforts. When you slow down, you remember your core abundance and resonance.
Become a witness of your own success-if you want to have any, that is. Celebrate being in the middle of things, on your way, and having arrived in so many ways. Practice basking in what you have and who you are. If you continue to take your success for granted, nothing will change for you, even if everything changes.
