2016: Practice Gratitude & Be Content
I urge all of you to start your days and end your nights with the simple act of always being grateful. I think itâs important to remind ourselves of the luxuries we have even if they might not seem that luxurious to us. Dr Wayne Dyer quoted that âIf we practiced gratitude as opposed to maintaining an attitude of entitlement, weâll automatically extend inspiration wherever we go. Being grateful helps remove the influence of our egos that is certain that weâre better than everyone else.â
I could go on and on about the ego and how it can quickly ruin a perfect relationship or escalate a petty argument but Iâm sure most of us have the basic understanding that the ego can be of great help to us if we know how to use it properly. If we all can just step aside from our ego for a minute and reduce this need for all the attention on us, this âme me me me ALL MEâ attitude, youâd be surprised to find that the world in fact does not revolve around you or anyone else for that matter.
Gratitude is a wonderful feeling, a great energy to keep. You can just say these words without meaning it at first but the longer you keep saying them, the more you can feel the loving warmth that is gratitude. Remember that there is a bigger and more divine power in this life and it can be God, or Spirit or Divine Power. Whatever it is that you call it, tap into that divinity and you can be capable of everything your little heart desires but first⌠Be grateful and be content.
