Despite what some people may think, gratitude implies much more than being polite; it’s a practice that requires acknowledging another individual’s gesture or act of kindness. It can also put focus on things that are going well in your life.
Developing a sense of gratitude isn’t complex or challenging. It doesn’t require any special tools or training. And the more you practice it, the better you will become and put yourself into a grateful state of mind.
“Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Gratitude is a selfless act. Its acts are done unconditionally, to show to people that they are appreciated. “A gift that is freely given” is one way to understand what these acts are like.
In addition, several studies suggest gratitude is a powerful catalyst for happiness — so why not practice gratitude?
