Developing an attitude of gratitude can have a profound effect on your happiness and overall outlook on life, but it’s not always easy to feel grateful when things go wrong. Here are some tips and tricks to help you cultivate the habit of being grateful and recognizing the good in even the worst situations.
The feeling of being used
It’s so easy to take things for granted, or to be annoyed when we’re put in a tough situation because of someone else’s choices. But if something good has happened through you, be thankful, you have been used as a medium, to do it. Be grateful that things happen in your life that make it so much richer than what others experience and remember to honor your intuition when it comes to people around you.
Being thankful for what you’ve been used for
It’s easy to become discouraged when things don’t go as planned, and it’s tempting to take credit for all of your successes, but your role in a project is often less significant than you think. We are all tools in someone else’s hands, and we should be thankful for the success that happens through us. Remember that if something good has happened through you, be thankful, you have been used as a medium, to do it.
