Attitude of Gratitude

                  

                          ( Expressing the gratitude )

               Let's shift our Attitude to Gratitude

Its being grateful and giving thanks for the things you have in your life & for having good moments, memories of your life. 

Basically gratitude means being thankful from bottom of your heart.

Attitude is the way you think and feel.

When you combine this two its become Attitude of gratitude and when you express it you start living a happy and healthy life.

In this busy world we've forgotten the word gratitude.

We wake up in the morning with thinking about the thoughts. 90% of them are negative or fear based or worries, this is how most of us start our day and we end up living our day with the same thinking. 

Most of us haven't even remember that moment.

We often forget about the blessings we have, and run behind new things.

A story which i read somewhere in the book i didn't remember the exact sequence of the story but I'll tell you in my words.

There was a student , one fine evening he was sitting behind the tree🌲 a wise man saw him and ask him when you'll be happy ? He said of course I'll be happy when I'll complete my graduation. When he completed his graduation the wise man again ask him are you happy ? and the boy said nope, I'll be happy when I'll get a job. After getting a good job wise man again came and ask him are you happy now ? He said no I'll be happy When I'll get married. After his marriage wise man asked him are you happy now ? He said nope I'll be happy when I'll have child. After having child they grow up and became adults. Now the wise man became very old, he came and ask him again are you happy now ? he said I'll be happy when I get retired. Then some years later he retired now the wise man was dead because of old age. After his retirement he recalled the old man's saying and he ask himself am I happy now and his answer was as always, no.

He thought may be I'll be happy when I die. And after some years he died being unhappy.

The boy lived his life by postponing his happiness on certain events and he died unhappy. He died without being happy.His life has just gone by in front of his eyes.

Moral of the story:- Your happiness is here in the present moment. Be happy now there is no tomorrow be happy now.

Happiness comes from the gratitude .

When you're greatful you feel more fulfilled.

When you're grateful your mental health improves.

Gratitude has been scientifically proven to improve your brain and your life.

When you wake up in the morning and open your eyes feel thankful for your existence, feel thankful for your health. Express gratitude that you have choices to think good, feel good to help others.

The first thing you must do in the morning is start writing 10 things you are grateful for and feel it in your heart. It'll just take 5 minutes but this 5 minutes will make your whole day beautiful. When you write feel it in your heart.

Next thing you can do is close your eyes and take deep breaths & then recall the good things  that happened in your life, feel it listen to the voices you've heard during that moment get emotionally involve with that moment & express gratitude that you have such a beautiful moments or you can remember your achievements visualize the moment or you can remember your child's smily face. Which will fill you with the happiness in the morning.

Same thing you can also do before going to bed in the night, think about all the good things that happened to you in your day.

When something good happens to you write that on paper and put that paper in that jar do it when you've experienced something great. Write your experience, write down how you felt.

And when you feel low or sad open that jar and start reading about your happy moments.
