What am I grateful for today?

Listen to what people talk about. What percentage is a complaint or a problem? Trauma and drama? Ninety-nine percent? Or more?

Did you know that you get more of what you focus your attention on?

So if you'd like fewer problems and more joy in life, inject a little gratitude into your conversation.

Crinkle someone's universe by saying something like “I am so grateful for the lockdown; it made me look at my life in a totally different way” or “I am really grateful that their lying is so obvious; now I know to look into everything they say and do and so I won't get caught out” or “How did I get so lucky seeing beautiful blue skies?  Not being able to travel means I can spend more time connecting with my local community.”

What if you found one thing to be grateful for every day and told someone?

Perhaps you'll surprise people and they'll stop complaining mid-stream? You may even infect them with gratitude and spread it to others?

Or you may just have giggle on your own because you're grateful you have toilet paper. So ask, “What am I grateful for today?”
