You need people in your life that are further along than you, people that have a bigger vision, people that are more experienced, people that are out of your league. You need to be exposed to new levels so that you can go to new levels.
I’m extremely thankful for all of those people in my life. #givethanks

I like to focus on the positive things that happen in my life and remind myself than even when life is challenging, good things are still around me. With a regular gratitude practice you may begin to notice how the challenges has helped you gain insight or grow as a person.
This is one of many things my mom taught me since very little, to always be thankful not matter the circumstances.
Is November first. I am not telling you that you should be thankful this month only, what I am saying is since November is a month we all consider to be a thankful month, may be this is the starting month for you. Once you start doing this I can assure you that your life will change.
Start your day with a grateful heart. First thing after you wake up acknowledge what you are grateful for. I do this in the shower and while I brush my teeth.
I attended to a great annual meeting few years ago that changed my life and I do let people know in writing how much they mean to me and if they changed my life in one way or another I let them know as well. I think you should try it. We should not wait till someone pass away to cry and tell others how much that person means or meant to you. DO IT TODAY!
How about donating money or clothes to a charity of your choice? I am not going to say much about this because it is something I do and I feel is between me and God but I do donate money and clothes. I also volunteer. It makes me feel so good. Sometimes I randomly pick people and surprise them with whatever I know they need. Sometimes I even do things to people and they do not even know it came from me. These are some ideas. Do whatever your heart tells you but know that you are always making a difference.
Post words, photos, objects of gratitude around your home. I keep a little jar. I love looking at the things I write from time to time.
I hope these ideas give you a starting point. I am for ever grateful of my precious daughter. Im grateful for her health, my health, our relationship and for this amazing journey that started three years ago. I can definitely go on and on for all the things I am grateful for but I will not do that now. May be next time. 😊
People ask me all the times, how can you always be laughing and stay happy? Well, one of many things I do is this, I Practice Gratitude. I also can let you know all the things I practice to live a happy and healthy life. I am not perfect and my life is not perfect but my attitude does make a difference in how I deal with challenges.
I hope you have a very happy November and I hope you get to start practicing Gratitude 💗. Please share. We are living pretty hard times and people need to know there is Hope.
“Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.”
