SINCERE GRATITUDE CAN CREATE AN ABUNDANCE OF WHAT YOU WANT IN LIFE.

I recently bought a train ticket and the first words on the reservation were “Thank you for choosing Amtrak”. Almost all services and products have a “thank you” on the receipt. There is a reason why companies and people express gratitude. It is a powerful emotion that creates more business for companies and more benefits for people. In fact, psychologists tell us that it can create wealth and happiness. Gratitude has been said to have one of the strongest links with mental health of any trait. Grateful people are more likely to have higher levels of happiness and lower levels of stress and depression. There are positive consequences from being a more grateful person!

So, how can we develop more of this valuable attitude that unleashes blessings? To begin with, we should all be grateful for the adventure that is life, including all of its twists and turns. When you feel grateful for existence itself, it becomes part of your identity. You are broadcasting gratitude all the time. Ultimately you attract circumstances that are beneficial for you. Developing an attitude of gratitude is one of the most important things you can do for attracting the things you desire into your life. According to Cicero, “Gratitude is not only the greatest of the virtues but the parent of all others.”   Hey, thanks a lot for listening! I am very grateful.
