You can also carry your Magic Rock with you in your pocket, and every time you touch it, use it as your reminder to think of something you're grateful for.

Your Magic Dust
You can also make The Magic Dust Everyone practice a part of your daily life. Other than sprinkling magic dust over the people who serve you, there are many more ways to continue using this practice. You can sprinkle magic dust over everyone and everything! If your boss is a bit grumpy, you can secretly sprinkle magic dust over him or her. You can sprinkle magic dust over a family member or loved one if they're in a bad mood, or anyone you come across who needs some magic in their life. You can also add magic wherever you go, and sprinkle magic dust over babies and children, over your plants or garden, your food and drinks, your computer or your mail before you open them, your wallet, car, your phone before you take or make a phone call, or over any circumstance that you want to improve. The many applications of magic dust are limited only by your imagination!

" To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven."
Johannes A. Gaertner (1912-1996)

Professor, Theologian, Poet

The ideal way to move forward from here is to maintain the foundation of gratitude you've built, and gradually keep building on it through increasing your depth of feeling. The more you practice gratitude, the deeper you will be able to feel it, and the more deeply you feel it, the less time you need to give to it. As a guide:

Three days a week of Remember The Magic, or combining it with two other magical practices of you choosing, you should maintain your current foundation of gratitude, and keep building the magic in your life so that your life continues to get better and better. For example, you might choose to do Remember The Magic on one day, Magic Relationships on the second, an Magic Money on the third day.

Four days a week of Remember The Magic, or incorporating it with three magical practices of your choosing, will maintain your gratitude and accelerate the magic.

Five days a week of Remember The Magic, or combining it with four other magical practices of your choosing, will dramatically increase your happiness and the magic in every area and circumstance of your life.

Six or seven days a week of Remember The Magic, or incorporating it with any other magical practices of your choosing, and you will become the true alchemist, who can turn everything into gold!

Day 28 - Remember The Magic

"That's the thing with magic. You've got to know it's still here, all around us, or it just stays invisible for you."
Charles De Lint (B. 1951)
Writer and Celtic Folk Musician

Everyday is unique; there is no day like any other day. The good things that happen each day are forever different and forever changing, and so when you remember The Magic by counting yesterday's blessings. every time. It's just one of the reasons why Remember maintain the magic or gratitude in your life. No matter in the future, this magical practice will remain the most powerful practice for your entire life.

The easiest way to remember the blessings of yesterday is to start by remembering the beginning of the day when you woke up, and go back over the day in your mind, recollecting the major events of the morning, afternoon, and evening, until you reach the time when you went to bed. When you recall yesterday's blessings it should be effortless; you are just scanning the surface of yesterday, and as you scan, the blessings will bubble to the surface of your mind.

You can start this magical practice by asking the question:

What are the good things that happened yesterday?

Whenever you ask a question, your mind will immediately look for the answer. Did you receive any great news? Did you magically receive or accomplish one of your desires? Did you magically received unexpected money? Did you feel especially happy? Did you hear from a friend who you haven't heard from in a long time? Did something go magnificently well for you receive a compliment, or did someone express his or her appreciation for you? Did someone help you to solve a problem? Did you help somebody? Did you finish a project or start something new you're excited about? Did you eat your favorite food, or watch a great movie? Did you receive a gift, resolve a situation, have a stimulating meeting, quality time with someone, a great conversation, or make plans for something you really want to do?

Remember The Magic and list yesterday's blessings on a computer, or write them out in a journal. Scan over the surface of yesterday until you feel satisfied that you've recalled the blessings of the day. They can be small things or big things, because it's not about the size of the blessings; it's about how many blessings you find, and how much gratitude you feel for each one. As you remember and notate each one, simply be grateful and say the magic words for it - thank you.

When you want to do this magical practice after today, you can mix it up, so that some days you write out blessings and other days to remember the blessings and say them out loud or in your mind. You can make a quick list of the blessings, or you can make a more detailed list saying why you're grateful for each one.

There is no set number of blessings to find from yesterday, because everyday is different. But I can assure you that every single day of your life is full of blessings, and when you have opened your eyes to see the truth of this, you will have opened your heart to the magic of life, and your life will be abundant and magnificent.

"Whoever has gratitude will be given more, and he or she will have an abundance. Whoever does not have gratitude, even what he or she has will be taken from him or her."

Remember The Magic - it was created for you!

4. After today you can do this practice as a written list, or out loud or in your mind. You can make a quick list of the things you're grateful for about yesterday or make a shorter and more detailed list and say why you're grateful for them.

5. Just before you go to sleep tonight, hold your Magic Rock in one hand, and say the magic words, thank you, for the best thing that happened during the day.

Day 27 - The Magic Mirror

"The appearance of things changes according to the emotions, and thus we see magic and beauty in them, while the magic and beauty are really in ourselves."
Kahlil Girbran (1883 - 1931)
Poet and Artist

You can spend the rest of your life running around trying to beat the outside world into the shape you want, chasing one problem after another trying to fix them, complaining about situations or other people, and never succeed in living your life to the fullest and realizing all of your dreams. But when you make the magic of gratitude your way of life, everything in the world around you magically changes - just like that. Your world magically changes because you changed, so what you are attracting changes too.

In the inspirational words of Gandhi and in the lyrics of Michael Jackson's song, "Man In The Mirror", which impacted hundreds of millions, one of the most powerful messages of all time was delivered:

Change the person in the mirror, and your world will change.

If you have followed the 26 magical practices to this point, you have changed! And even though it is sometimes hard to see the changes in yourself, you will have felt the change in your happiness, and you will have felt the changes in your happiness, and you will have seen the change of improved circumstances in your life, and the magical changes in the world around you.

You have practiced the magical power of gratitude for your family and friends, for your work, money, and health, for your dreams, and even for the people you come across each day. But the person who deserves your gratitude more than anyone else is you.

When you are grateful to be the person in the mirror, feelings of dissatisfaction, discontentment, disappointment, or I'm-not-good-enough completely disappear. And with them, every dissatisfying, discontenting, and disappointing circumstance in your life magically disappears too.

Negative feelings about yourself cause the greatest damage to your life, because they are more powerful than any feelings you have about anything or anyone else. Whenever you go and whatever you do you take those negative feelings with you in every moment, and those feelings taint everything you touch, and they act as a magnet, attracting more dissatisfaction, discontentment, and disappointment with everything you do.

When you are grateful to be you, you will only attract circumstances that make you feel even better about yourself. You have to be rich with good feelings about yourself to bring the riches of life to you. Gratitude for yourself enriches you!

"Whoever has gratitude (for themselves) will be given more, and he or she will gave a abundance. Whoever does not have  gratitude (for themselves) even what he or she has will be taken from him or her."

To do the Magic Mirror practice, go to a mirror right now. Look directly at the person in the mirror, and out loud say the magic words, thank you, with all your heart. Mean it more than you ever have before. Say thank you for being you! Say thank you for everything that you are! Say thank you with at least the same amount of feeling you've used for everything and everyone else! Be grateful for you just as you are!

Continue with the Magic Mirror practice by being grateful to that beautiful person in the mirror for the rest of the day today, and say the magic words, thank you, every time you look at yourself in the mirror. If you're not in a position to say the magic words out loud mind. And if you're really brave, you can look in the Magic Mirror and say three things about yourself that you're grateful for.

If for any reason in the future you are not being kind to yourself, you will know to five to the one person who deserves your gratitude more than anyone else - the person in the mirror!

When you're grateful, you don't blame yourself when you make a mistake. When you're grateful, you don't criticize yourself when you're not perfect. When you're grateful for being you, you are happy, and you will become a magnet to happy people, happy situations and magical circumstances, which will surround you wherever you go and in whatever you do. When you can see the magic in that person in the mirror, your whole world will change!

Magic Practice Number 27

3. If you're really brave, while looking in the mirror say three things you're grateful for about yourself.

4. Just before you go to sleep tonight, hold your Magic Rock in one hand, and say the magic words, thank you, for the best thing that happened during the day.

Day 26 - Magically Transform Mistakes Into Blessings

"Turn your wounds into wisdom."
Oprah Winfrey (B. 1954)
Media Personality and Businesswoman

Every single mistake is a blessing in disguise. Today's magical practice will prove it, because you're about to discover that there are actually untold blessings hidden within every mistake!

A child makes many mistakes while learning how to ride a bike or write, and we don't give it a second thought because we know that through their mistakes they will learn and eventually master what they're trying to do. So why is it that adults are so hard on themselves when they make a mistake? The same ruse that applies to children also applies to you. We all make mistakes, and if we didn't make them we'd never learn anything, and we wouldn't grow any smarter or any wiser.

We have he freedom to make our own choices, and that means we don't learn from the mistake we've made, the pain we've suffered from it has been for nothing. In fact, by the law of attraction, we will make the same mistake over and over again, until the consequences hurt us so much that we finally learn from it! It's the very reason why mistakes hurt, so that we do learn from them and don't make them repeatedly.

To learn from a mistake, we first have to own it, and this is where many people can become undone, because they often blame someone else for their mistake.

Let's consider the scenario of being pulled over by the police for speeding and being given a speeding ticket. Instead of taking responsibility for the fact that we were speeding, we blame the police because they wore hiding in the bushes on the highway around a bend, we couldn't see them, they had a radar gun, and so we didn't stand a chance. But that mistake was ours, because we were the one who chose to speed.

The problem with blaming other people for out mistake is that we will still suffer the pain and consequences of our mistake, but we didn't learn from it, and so bingo! We'll attract making the same mistake again.

You are human, you will make mistakes, and it's one of the most beautiful things about being human, ut you must learn from your mistakes, otherwise your life will gave a lot of unnecessary pain.

How do you learn from a mistake? Gratitude!

No matter how bad something may seem, there are always, always, many things to be grateful for. When you look for as many things as you can to be grateful for in a mistake, you magically transform the mistake into blessings. Mistakes attract more mistakes, and blessings attract more blessings - which would you prefer?

Today, think about about  a mistake you have made in your life. It doesn't matter whether it was a big or small mistake, but choose one that still hurts when you think about it. Maybe you lost your temper with a person close to you and the relationship hasn't been the same since. Maybe you put blind faith in another person and got burned. Maybe you told a white lie to protect someone, and because of it you ended up in a difficult situation. You might have chosen the cheaper option on something, and it all went wrong and ended up costing you a whole lot more. You might have thought you wore making the right decision about something, but it completely backfired on you.

Once you've chosen a mistake to magically transform into blessings, look for the things to be grateful for. To help you, there are two questions you can ask yourself:

What did I learned from the mistake?

What are the good things that came out of the mistake?

The most important things to be grateful for about every mistake are the things you learned from it. And no matter what the mistake, there are always many good things that came out of it and altered your future for better. Think this through very carefully, and see if you can find a total of ten blessings to be grateful for. Every blessing you find has magical power. Write out your list in a gratitude journal or type them on a computer.

Let's take the example of being caught speeding by police car and receiving a fine:

1. I'm grateful to the police for wanting to protect me from harming myself, because after all, that was all they were trying to do.

2. I'm grateful to the police because if I am honest with myself, I was thinking about other things, and I wasn't concentrating on the road.

3. I'm grateful to the police because it was foolish to put myself at risk speeding with a tire that needed to be replaced.

4. I'm grateful to the police for the wake-up call. Being pulled over did affect me and it will make me watch my speed and drive more carefully in the future.

5. I'm grateful to the police because somehow I had a wild idea that I could speed without getting caught, and without putting myself in danger. The seriousness of the police made me face up to the fact that I was putting both myself and others in serious danger.

6. I'm grateful to the police because if I think about my own family being put in danger by other speeding drivers, then I definitely want to the police to stop speeding drivers.

7. I'm really grateful to the police for the work they do in trying to ensure the safety of every person and family on the roads.

8. I'm grateful to the police. They must see heartbreaking situations every day, and all they're trying to do is protect my life and my family's life.

9. I am grateful to the police for making sure that I arrived home safely, and walked through the door to my family as I usually do.

10. I am grateful to the police because of all the possible consequences that could have stopped me from my speeding, the police pulling me over was the least harmful consequence, and it could have been the biggest blessing of my life.

I would strongly urge you to take any mistakes you've made in your life that you still feel bad about, and in your own time, follow this magnificent and magical practice. Think about it; through one mistake you have the power to bring many blessings! What else guarantees dividends like that?

Magic Practice Number 26

Magically Transform Mistakes Into Blessings

1. Count Your Blessings: Make a list of ten blessings. Write why you're grateful. Reread your list, and at the end of each blessing say thank you, thank you, thank you, and feel as grateful for that blessing as you can.

2. Choose one mistake you made in your life.

3. Find a total of ten blessings you're grateful for as a result of making that mistake, and write them down.

4. To help you find blessing, you can ask your self the questions: What did I learned from that mistake? And: What are the good things that came out of the mistake?

5. Just before you go to sleep tonight, hold your Magic Rock in one hand, and say the magic words, thank you, for the best thing that happened during the day.

Day 25 - Cue The Magic

"Life is playfulness.. We need to play so that we can rediscover the magic all around us."
Flora Colao (B.1954)
Writer and Therapist

Today's practice, Cue The Magic, is one of my favorite practices, because it's a game you play with the Universe, and it's a lot of fun!

Imagine That the Universe is friendly and caring, and that it wants you to have everything you want in life. Because the Universe can't just walk up and hand you what you want, it uses the law of attraction to give you signs and cues to help you receive your dreams. The Universe knows you have to feel gratitude to bring forth your dreams, so it plays its part in the fame by giving you personal cues to remind you to be grateful. It uses the people, circumstances, and events that surround you in your day as your magic cues to be grateful. It works like this:

If you hear an ambulance siren, the magic cue from the Universe is to be grateful for perfect health. If you see a police car, your magic cue is to be grateful for safety and security. If you see someone reading a newspaper, it's your magic cue to be thankful for great news.

If you want to change the weight of your body, when you see another person with you perfect weight, it's your magic cue from the Universe to be thankful for your perfect weight. If you want a romantic partner, when you see a couple madly in love it's your magic cue to be grateful for the perfect partner. If you want to have a family, when you see babies and children, take the magic cue and be grateful for children. When you pass by your bank, or an ATM, it's your magic cue to be grateful for plenty of money. When you arrive at home, it's your magic cue to be grateful for your home, and when a neighbor calls in to have a cup of coffee, or you wave to them across the street, it0s your magic cue to be grateful for your neighbors.

If you happen to see one of your material desires on your list, such as your dream house car, motorcycle, shoes, or computer, of course it's your magic cue from the Universe to be grateful for your desire now!

When you begin a new day, and someone says, "Good morning", you're being given a magic cue to be grateful for the good morning. If you come across someone who is really happy, it's your magic cue to be grateful for happiness. And if you overhear another person saying thank you, anywhere at anytime, it's your magic cue to say thank you!

There are unlimited and creative ways the Universe has to magically cue you to be grateful in your day-to-day activities. You can never misunderstood a magic cue or get a cue wrong, because whatever you think a cue is for, you're right! The Universe uses the law of attraction to magically cue you, and so you always attract the exact cues that you need to be grateful for in that moment.

Cue The Magic has become a daily game I play, and with practice, I now automatically see all the magic cues the Universe gives me, and I give thanks for every one of them. It never ceases to thrill and amaze me how the Universe finds new ways to cue me to set the magic of gratitude into motion!

When I receive a phone call from a friend or family member, it's a cu to be grateful for him or her. When someone says, "Isn't it a beautiful day", it's a cue to be grateful for the beautiful weather where I live, and for another beautiful day. If an appliance breaks down, it's a cue to be grateful for my appliances that are working perfectly. If a plant in my harden is struggling, it's a cue to be grateful for all the healthy plants in my harden. When I collect the mail, it's a cue to be grateful for the mail service, and for unexpected checks. When someone says they have to go to an ATM, or I see people in line at an ATM, it's a cue to be grateful for money. If a person I know comes down with sickness, it's a cue to be grateful for their health and mine. When I open my curtains in the morning and see the new day, it's a cue to be grateful for the great day ahead. And when I close my curtains at night, it's a cue to be grateful for the great day I had.

To play Cue The Magic today, all you have to do is be alert enough to take seven magic cues from the Universe during the day, and five tanks for each one of them. For example, if you see someone with your perfect weight, say, "Thank you for my perfect weight!" You can never do too much gratitude, so you can choose to do more, and if you want, you can even try to respond to as many magic cues in one day as you can. If you've been following the daily magical practices over the last 24 days, you will have reached a point by now where you will be alert enough to notice the cues the Universe is always giving to you. One of the many benefits of gratitude's magical power is that it wakes you up, and makes you far more alert and aware. And the more alert and aware you become, the more grateful you become, and the more easily you attract your dreams. So, Universe - cue the magic!

Magic Practice Number 25

Cue The Magic

1. Count Your Blessings. Make a list of ten blessings. Write why you're grateful. Reread your list, and at the end of each blessing say thank you, thank you, thank you, and feel as grateful for that blessing as you can.

2. Today, be alert to what's around you, and take at least seven gratitude cues from the events in your day. For example, if you see someone with your perfect weight, say, "Thank you for my perfect weight!"

3. Just before you go to sleep tonight, hold your Magic Rock in one hand, and say the magic words, thank you, for the best thing that happened during the day.

Day 24 - The Magic Wand

Have you ever wished you had a magic wand so that you could just wave your wand and help the people you love? Well, today's magical practice will show you how you can use life's real Magic Wand to help others!

When you fervently want to help another person you have immense power, but when you direct that power with gratitude, you really do have a Magic Wand that can help the people you care about.

Energy flows where your attention goes, and so when you direct the energy of gratitude toward another person's needs, that's where the energy goes. This is the very reason why Jesus said thank you before he performed a miracle. Gratitude is an invisible but real force of energy, ad coupled with the energy of your desire it is just like having a Magic Wand.

"People who wait for a magic wand fail to see that they ARE the magic wand."
Thomas Leonard (1955-2003)
Personal Developer Coach

If you have a family member, friend, or anyone you care about who is lacking physical health, in financial trouble, unhappy in their work, stressed, suffering because a relationship has ended, lost confidence in him or herself, suffering from mental problems, or feeling down about their life, you can use the invisible force of gratitude to help them with their health, wealth, and happiness.

To wave your Magic Wand for another's health, imagine that the person's health has been fully restored, and say the magic words, thank you, in heartfelt celebration of receiving the news that he or she is full of health again. You could imagine the person calling you to give you the news, or imagine them telling you i person, and really see and feel your reaction. When you an feel as grateful now as you would when you heard the news that person's health had been fully restored it will guarantee that the gratitude you feel is as sincere and as powerful as it can be.

To wave you Magic Wand to help someone you love with their wealth, follow the same magical practice, and be as grateful as if they had the wealth they needed right now. Imagine their wealth has been fully restored, it is done, and you're saying the magic words, thank you, because you've just received the amazing news.

If a person you know is going through a tough time, but you don't know what specifically they need, or if they need help in more than one area, then you can follow the same magical practice and wave your Magic Wand by giving thanks for their happiness,or for their health, wealth, and happiness together.

Today choose three people you care about who are currently in need of health, wealth, or happiness, or all the three. Get a photograph or each person if you have one, and keep the photographs in front of you while doing this practice.

Take the first person, fold their photograph in your hand, then close your eyes and for one minute visualize yourself receiving the news that the person has been fully restored with whatever they need. It is much easier to visualize yourself receiving the news than it is to visualize, for example, an ill person healthy again, or a depressed person happy again, or financially stressed person abundant again. And you will feel more excitement and gratitude if you involve yourself in your visualization.

Open your eyes and with the photograph still in your hand, say the magic words thank you, slowly three times, for that person's health, wealth, or happiness, or whatever combination they need:

Thank you, thank you, thank you for     Name's     health, wealth, or happiness.

As you finish with one person, move on to the next person, and follow the same two steps until you've finished the Magic Wand practice by sending health, wealth, or happiness to all three people.

You can also use this powerful practice when you're walking down the street or going about your day and you come across someone who is obviously lacking happiness, health or wealth. Imagine you have a Magic Wand, and in your mind wave it by giving heartfelt thanks for their wealth, health, and happiness, and know that you have set a real force of energy into motion.

Using gratitude to help someone else with his or her health, wealth, and happiness is the single greatest act of gratitude you can perform. And one of the magical things about it is that the health, wealth, and happiness you fervently wish for others, you also bring to yourself.
