The Power of Gratitude! What Are You Grateful For Today?

“Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation”.
~Brian Tracy
Did you know people who express their gratitude daily are 25% happier and significantly healthier than those who don’t.  We know that expressing gratitude and being grateful is a good thing. We also know that in less than 60 seconds a day, just by writing down what we are grateful for will instantly raise our emotional set point and feel happier.
So what are you grateful for today?
According to a long-term study on the power of gratitude by the University of California1, writing gratitude journals and practicing gratefulness on a regular basis causes the following happy side-effects:
  • Promotes Good HealthYou’ll enjoy better physical and mental health, a better outlook on life, and you’ll be more optimistic, Expressing gratitude is one of the fastest ways to pull yourself out of a slump.

I  have been  practicing the power of gratitude for over fours years now and  it has really helped me become a better person and to appreciate what  and who I have around me right now. I have a  better outlook in life  and  to follow my passion as a  Business LifeStyle Coach so I can help people to follow their dreams and to  achieve them too.

So take just a few minutes each day to jot down things that make you thankful… you will feel better about yourself, have more energy and feel more alert.

About   three years ago I found a “Gratitude Journal” in the  Apple app store. It’s a free program to download. I have been using it  to record my gratitude every single day. It is friendly and so easy to use.

 I have also discovered this website where you  can express your gratitude online. The website is http://gratitudelog.com

Gratitudelog is a website where people come together to celebrate happy moments, send simple gifts of appreciation and brighten up each other’s day. It’s based on the simple practice of expressing gratitude daily for wonderful moments in your life.

So have fun with it. The Power of Gratitude works like magic
