You come to expect responses and come to have faith that they will keep coming. <strong>This allows you to be grateful for gifts in advance.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything in the world contributes to your advancement (because everything is formed from Original Substance and Original Substance favors your advancement), so <strong>you should be grateful for everything. <\/strong>Be grateful even for things that seem negative. For example, be grateful for the superrich or corrupt politicians. They have flaws, but ultimately, they contribute to your and others\u2019 advancement\u2014the superrich start businesses that you make use of, and politicians create order, both of which create new opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gratitude requires continuity. If you stop being grateful the moment you receive your first response, your connection with Original Substance will break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the law of gratitude?
