“I don’t have to chase extraordinary moments to find happiness - it’s right in front of me if I’m paying attention and practicing gratitude.” - Brene Brown

 

In my search for contagious happiness, I’ve explored a number of practices and strategies.

 

And daily gratitude is one of those simple practices that has fundamentally changed how I feel.

 

That’s because gratitude is a source for instant happiness. Find something appreciate and good feelings fill you instantly. Better still, gratitude is easy to practice because there’s always something to feel thankful for - even something as simple as the feel of the breeze on your skin or an incredible sunset.

 

But here’s what really surprised me…

 

When you make gratitude a daily habit, you’ll find that it helps you cope with hardships. It’s not just a strategy for the good times.

 

That’s why I say gratitude is your cheat code.

 

To find out more, listen in to this podcast. It’s a short one - just over 6 minutes so a perfect coffee break treat.

 

In this episode I talk about:

 

  • Why gratitude is like a muscle - and what that means for your daily practice. (00:30)
  • The many languages of gratitude. (00:59)
  • What to feel gratitude for. (02:59)
  • Why a daily gratitude practice becomes an abundant well that you can draw upon to fuel your day - even through the bad times. (02:10)
  • When gratitude becomes a cheat code. (02:30)
  • How (and when) to practice gratitude. (04:52)

 

“Gratitude is the cheat code to help you stand with

the power of the world behind your back.”
