Gratitude

Almost every day, it is conceivable that you will go through some good moments and some challenges. If you pay more attention to your good moments and express gratitude, you will attract more good moments. Instead, if you focus on your not so good moments or challenges, you will attract more of that.

Expressing gratitude is a great habit. It makes you feel good and attract abundance at the same time. 

How to enhance attracting gratitude:

1. Focus on what is working in your life 

Instead of focusing on what is not working and attracting more of that focus on what is working and express gratitude and attract more of that.

2. Express gratitude for what is not working in your life

Express gratitude for what is not working by saying: This is taking longer to take off but I know there is some benefit in the delay. Perhaps my knowledge of this service or product needs more prep thus the delay.

3. Express gratitude for even sad things in your life

View sadness as also a blessing. Rumi says: “Wound is a place where light enters!”. No wound, no light. So treat the ‘wounds’ as an invitation to the divine light!

4. Avoid the blame game. Instead, begin the praise game.

Instead of looking for someone to blame, look for someone to praise!

5. Look for the good in people 

Every person you meet will have some good in them and some bad. Look for the good in them and be grateful to have focused on their good instead of their shortcoming.

6. Don’t pass the buck instead take 100% responsibility 

When something has gone wrong instead of looking for the culprit to pass the buck to start by taking 100 % responsibility. This will lead you to be 100% response able!

7. Be in awe and gratitude of the phenomenal nature around us

When you see the sunrise or the sunset or the flowers bloom or the birds fly say Wow “Spectacular beauty!”

8. Desire and create impact. 

Be grateful and grab any opportunity to create impact. 
Do not worry about getting credit 

9. Express gratitude for every opportunity to serve others. 

Every time you are called to provide service consider it as a big blessing

10. Let go of worries. Instead, focus on taking action to minimize the worries.

My friend and co-author Dr. Nido Qubein’s says aptly: “95 % of what you worry about never happens!”
