The Power of Gratitude

Have you ever noticed that you get more of what you focus on in life? That’s why I make a point everyday to spend a few moments counting my blessings. Every night I start my prayer , “Dear God, thank you for….” And I just go through my day, the people I connected with, and so on. I believe that until we are truly thankful for what we have, we will not be blessed with more.

On “The Secret” (yes, I am obsessed with that movie!) the one man had his gratitude rock that he kept in his pocket. He said he used it in the morning and at night as a reminder to say “thanks.”

Sometimes during the day I offer up little thank you prayers in the moment for the meal I am sharing, for the laughter, for the beauty of the afternoon sunshine in my face.

That’s why when I saw this post by Goal Guru Jill Koenig (a fellow Chicagoan) that I had to share it.

What rituals do you have around gratitude? Share your ways of saying “thanks” here.
