"In daily life we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but gratefulness that makes us happy." — Brother David Steindl-Rast
Happy people tend to be those that are grateful. But what if gratitude is not something that comes naturally to us? What if we are stuck in a glass half-empty mentality. Cultivate gratitude by keeping a daily gratitude (or acknowledgement) journal. Maybe you can get some friends on board and you can all email each other your gratitude lists on a daily basis. It's a great way to stay accountable and to learn new things to be grateful for. Remember that what you focus on grows. Water the gratitude not the complaints.
