Personal Development Questions/Answers

Dear Gratitude, I am a home maker. But I feel very depressed & lonely once my husband & children leave for office & school respectively. Please help me get out of this feeling.

Asked by sims27 from India

Dear sims27,

I remember the time when I was like you. I was depending on others for my happiness. It was before I found that joy lies in me not in people or situations. What you have to understand and believe is that only you have the power to make yourself happy or sad. Don’t let any external factors have this power over you.

Your mind is the most powerful thing that you can have; you can achieve anything you want by having positive thinking. Think about the best possible life for yourself, the life of your dreams. Think how happy you are, don’t think in future terms. Believe it is happening now and how grateful you are. This is called law of attraction; this law basically says that what ever you think about you will attract it in your life. Don’t focus on what you don’t want but focus on what you do want (refer to my article on Law of Attraction ).

I am practicing this way of thinking for only a couple of months now but my life has completely changed. I am really happy and at peace with my self because I know that it is up to me that what kind of life I want to have, and believe me my life has improved a lot, not only spiritually but also financially and health wise. My relationship with my family couldn’t possibly be any more wonderful.

If you are in depression you will attract more of this kind of negative energy. You cannot overcome despair overnight but when ever this feeling comes over you challenge it and don’t give in. This way you will gain some power over it and time by time you will have complete control over your own joy. Look at your home, your family, the beauty of nature. There is happiness all around you; it is just a matter of recognizing it. Always show gratitude because you will not attract anything new in your life unless you are grateful for what you have now.
