I\u2019ve had clients who excitedly share an accomplishment with me but when I ask if they\u2019re feeling proud and letting others know their mood changes. They\u2019re afraid people will react badly to their show of pride. I hear:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cSomeone may get jealous and not like me.\u201d Don\u2019t you want friends who are happy for you?<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cIt may sound like bragging, which turns people off.\u201d Feeling good about what you\u2019ve done or earned isn\u2019t bragging. It\u2019s owning yourself.<br \/>\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cDon\u2019t people like us more when we\u2019re modest?\u201d That\u2019s a DoorMat\/people pleaser mentality of worrying that everyone will like you!<\/p>\n<p>Pride makes you excited, which creates a good vibration for the Law of Attraction to pick up on. Stifling it doesn\u2019t. Owning pride makes you feel very good about your path and ability to reach your goals. It fuels your vibration so the Law of Attraction can work with you. Not feeling pride tells the Universe that what you already manifested didn\u2019t matter to you, so it\u2019s harder to attract more.<\/p>\n<p>Red Aurbach said, \u201cTake pride in what you do. The kind of pride I&#8217;m talking about is not the arrogant puffed-up kind; it&#8217;s just the whole idea of caring &#8211; fiercely caring.&#8221; \u201cFiercely caring&#8221; feeds the vibration you need to keep getting desires met. So if you want to manifest more, joyously own what you\u2019ve already done, let your pride rise to the surface. And if someone doesn\u2019t like it, you don\u2019t need that person in your life.<\/p>\n<p>Love yourself enough to know that you deserve to feel pride and that you are more important than the person who is jealous or judging you unfairly. Let the Law of Attraction bring you more to feel proud of!<\/p>\n<p>See all the posts in my Law of Attraction in Action Series <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<br \/>\n**************<\/p>\n<p>Join the <a href=\"http:\/\/howdoiloveme.com\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Self-Love Movement\u2122<\/strong><\/a>!

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start &amp; Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4967","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4967"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4967\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4989,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4967\/revisions\/4989"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4967"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4967"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4967"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
