Begin with gratitude

A day that begins with gratitude is a day that you'll
be able to fill with positive progress. When you're
sincerely appreciative of where you
are and what you have, you'll
greatly expand your own possibilities.
Begin with a thankful thought and connect
yourself with the abundance that is all around you.
There is always something for which you can be
sincerely thankful and the simple act
of being thankful ignites a
productive momentum in your world.
Make gratitude your first response and it will soon
become an empowering perspective from which
you can achieve great things. Rather than
looking for something to criticize, look for things
to genuinely praise. Make the most positive
qualities the first things you notice in people,
in your surroundings, and in the
situations which come along.
By focusing your thoughts on the positive aspects
of your life, you cause their influence to grow. Be
grateful, and your gratitude happily
creates even more things in your life
for which you can be grateful.
The appreciation for what you have gives more
value to all that you are. The blessings you
enjoy are blessings precisely because
you see them as such.
Tap into the great reservoir of real value that is
already available to you. Live with gratitude,
and you'll create even more reasons to be thankful.
