Gratitude

American author and motivational speaker Denis Waitley wrote:

Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.

I believe that True Wealth is built on a foundation of gratitude.

Being grateful is giving thanks to other people and being grateful for what you have right now.  Take time to thank all the people who help you get to where you're going.  Take a few minutes and make a list of the activities, the resources, and the people in your life that you are most grateful for.  This list is great to look at whenever you are feeling less resourceful.  It will boost your frame of mind. 

We all have to admit that we have been guilty of taking what we have right now for granted.  It is easy to get fixated on what we hope to have next year that we forget to appreciate or use whatever we have. 

To prevent this from happening, we need to start expressing our gratitude on a daily basis.

Remember, an attitude of gratitude will give you the altitude to soar to the heights of success!
