Principle - A basic truth, law, or assumption…a rule or standard
What is the “Power of Gratitude?”
It turns:
It will:
“Love What You Have; Create What Matters Most”
[We must cultivate (promote) an "attitude of gratitude”]
[We should each develop the habit of thanksgiving so that we are thankful on a daily basis.]
1. Thankfulness focuses our minds on the good things of life
2. Thankfulness helps us think of the {BIG picture}
Generally, what we express thanksgiving for are the BIG things in life. We give thanks for things like our Faith, our family, faith, career, finances etc. We don’t normally give thanks for little things…that fill our lives. Certainly we should be thankful for these things also, but the process of thanksgiving forces us to think about the BIG picture things. Chances are that we may have many little things in life that are a struggle, but yet the BIG things in life will ultimately steer the ship right.
3. Thankfulness provides hope for the future
by reflecting on everything we have to be thankful for were setting up ourselves to have hope for the future. Were able to think about all of the ways that things have gone right in the past, all of the good things we've been able to achieve and accomplish, and how God has consistently provided for us through good times and bad. This sort of reflection can remind us what it is like to achieve our goals and to feel success in life. Remembering these things tells us that we can once again achieve all of these things, and that once again we can reach our goals.
Get a pen and a piece of paper… (Remember top 3% write down their goals).Write down what you are thankful for. – This can be a simple process, of taking some time to make a list of things that you are thankful for. The list can be numbering…1- 20 or possible in a journal or blog form. However you want to do it…just make sure you do it!
Now…Tell others about the things you are thankful for. There is power in confessing this out loud!!
There are very few things in life that have the power to encourage, inspire, and provide peace of mind and bring happiness all at the same time. Being thankful is one of those things.
Happy Thanksgiving!
