Even in the midst of the greatest difficulties, you will experience in life, you can always find things for which you are truly grateful. Watch today's video to learn my best strategies for showing and reflecting gratitude.

    One of my employees suggested having a "Gratitude Box". So if an employee covers a shift, had a smooth opening because the night crew did a good job, etc, the grateful employee will put a little thank you note in it expressing their gratitude. Then at every employee meeting (once a month), we finish the meeting by reading the comments out loud. Whoever has the most thank you notes in it is then granted a gift card. It is a great way to end our meeting in a positive manner!

    My boyfriend and I leave each other a voice message about something we admire in each other every morning. I love starting the day that way. And I strive to live with an attitude of gratitude. Great video. I loved learning a out the 4 As. Thank you!

      I’m happy you’re enjoying this way and I hope it would always last, but if I can be allowed to share my point of view I’d highly suggest you can list all the other things you’ve grateful for even for the simple fact that you have eyes and can see, as for romantic relationships can make your happiness depend on the partner while if you find something withing you you’ll garantee your happiness by your own hand, your bf’s presence is a plus ofc but I hope you would prioritize your mental health

    gratitude comes from your soul you can't fake it... just find it and express. it takes some soul searching at times I'm thankful to have a avenue just to say what I've said... thank you

      and I am grateful that I was able to read this 3 years later, through a pandemic, finding your message, and the message of the video even more relevant and necessary to internalize. Thank you. You are absolutely correct, authenticity is essential not only for an internal gratitude practice but also for an altruistic one, which in a way, is what he describes in that video. Blessings to you!

    One thing I try to do every day is find a song of the day for all my facebook friends and if any of them have a function I make sure to share it and ask folks to pass it along. If i've caused a delay in a check out line, i apologize to everyone that I made wait and hope that their day gets better than the last few mins with me. Thank you, Mr. Tracy for your very useful and good video.

    The higher the gratitude, the greater your ability to be sensitive to others.
    Absolute genius. I had watched TED talks, read papers, and watched other videos, but none of them even compared to this.
    Classic, fantastic, great, spectacular, and timeless

  • @rescueumbrella
    @rescueumbrella Před rokem

    My day starts with morning pages over coffee or tea. I clearly State what I am grateful for and I state where I am disappointed over. I State what I'm looking forward to and when I finish my morning pages I just roll into taking care of those things that I said I looked forward to doing.
    I use this time to remind myself of all of the things that I have and all of the changes in my life that have lifted Me Up and it motivates me to continue to do that.
    I don't have any frogs - I have tasks that benefit me once I do them.

    Great wee talk. My daily routine started this year is 15 mins meditation with gratitude affirmations followed by writing out a minimum of 7 things Im grateful for. Slowly but surely moving my mindset from learned negative patterns to a much more grateful and positive outlook. It doesnt happen overnight, but just like a good gym routine consistency pays off and the results begin to show! 😊 grateful for my life and for people and talks like this. Have a fab day! 🙏

    Thanks Brian Tracy,
    A recent event changed my way of thinking, I felt like I experienced the worst (rock bottom), then I've recalled my past and the simple things that I complained about, and suddenly those became regrets, that I failed to appreciate things I should be grateful for.
    Now I'm on a quest to appreciate.

    Namaste from India..I feel the greatest way to show one's attitude for gratitude would be to be THANKFUL EACH AND every MOMENT FOR NOT JUST ALL THAT THEY HAVE BUT FOR ALL THAT IS !!! Which means all of the Good in the Universe that is there visible and invisible both which comes to them automatically and effortlessly when one is grateful even before they actually receive it.. Because True Miracles are invisible..So just be grateful even if you can't see with your eyes..❤❤❤❤❤Thank you

    I am glad I have watched your video. I am about to start a new job and want to make sure I am continuing to live positively and not get too stress out. Now that I have watched your video I hope to practice the 4 A's, to help me manage my stress levels. And improve the working environment for the rest of my team.

    I make it a point to sit down with a pen and paper like you mentioned Brian. It's amazing how many things I can come up with when I just take the time to count my blessings. It's a truly powerful practice. At times when I am unable write down my gratitude list, I'll just go through a mental exercise of simply appreciating all the great things that happened on that particular day.

    Enjoyed immensely to listen to your kind words of wisdom, Mr. Brian Tracy! I do practice and teach Gratitude if people wish and want to have a better and more satisfying life. However, the more I listen to others the more I feel I do not know enough to stop learning and using Appreciation/Gratitude Qualities... There is always room for more in our hearts and lives! In my PC Folders I have one special folder named Forgiveness and Gratitude - that is how relevant these Energies are in my life.

    I think sir by doing good with others is the best way of showing gratitude even though ,if other did previously wrong with you .Next thing is do pray for betterment of others . Thirdly, never think of taking revenge ,leave every thing in the hands of Allah however if somebody far so did negative to you. Lastly ,try to keep your thoughts pure for everyone,this will ultimately reflects from your face and gives radiance to your soul too.
