How to Start Your Journey with Gratitude Today

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
       -- Confucius

Dear Friends,

Why not start your journey of gratitude today? The impact of being grateful is powerful in all seven areas of life. Gratitude elevates our state of being, enlightens our awareness and inspires our greatest actions. On the other hand, ingratitude weighs you down and brings you down. Our immune system runs down, our spiritual life feels like hell, our mind becomes clouded when we are ungrateful. When we are in such a state, who will want to do business with us? Our financial situation is more likely to become stagnant and devalued. We will probably become more isolated from people because others wouldn’t want to stay with someone who doesn’t appreciate them.

True gratitude gives us a moment of fulfillment and love for life, for our existence, and for what is, as it is right now. Gratitude is the number one tool to make us grow. The Gratitude Effect is the expansion effect for every human being on the planet. Nelson Mandela once said that we serve the world by shining, not shrinking.

Ask this question over and over until you become grateful for the event. Once you are up to date, make it a daily routine. Anything you can’t be grateful for becomes baggage. When people lacking gratitude accumulate in your life, the more you are stuck in the past and this creates fears of the future. Therefore guilt of the past prevents you from being inspired and present.

Go back through your life and write thank you notes to everyone involved, and that includes you. Try doing it every morning and every night. Start a gratitude journal. Research has proven that people who keep gratitude journals accomplish more, feel more, and heal more. They are overall more fulfilled. So, reap the benefits of being grateful and make your life amazing through continuously applying the Gratitude Effect.

Love and Wisdom,

John
