Inspiration and counsel from the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda
The great master gave the following concise and powerful teaching for attracting material and spiritual abundance—even in challenging times:

Thanksgiving and praise open in your consciousness the way for spiritual growth and supply to come to you. Spirit pushes Itself out into visible manifestation as soon as a channel is opened through which It can flow. You should be thankful for everything at all times. Realize that all power to think, and speak, and act comes from God, and that He is with you now, guiding and inspiring you.

In his Whispers from Eternity, Paramahansaji wrote these lines as a prayer we can all use to increase our receptivity to divine blessings:

When the summer of good fortune warms my tree of life, it easily burgeons with fragrant blossoms of thankfulness.

During winter months of misfortune, O Lord, may my denuded branches changelessly waft toward Thee a secret scent of gratitude.

For your many blessings be thankful every day, not only when the calendar indicates Thanksgiving-time. The basis for your gratitude should not be material prosperity. Whether your worldly possessions be many or few, you are still rich in gifts from God. Love Him, not for the outward things He may give you but for His gift to you of Himself as your Father.

"Because of God, everything else is. Because of Him, you exist. Because of Him, you have material abundance and conveniences, and all the satisfactions that go with them. So unto God your gratitude should be great."
