Have a Attitude of Gratitude

August 12, 2008

I can always remember watching the movie the secret.

And one of the people who was involved in it said something. And it really hit home with me and he said the following thing. Have a attitude of gratitude and for a split second it really did make me think about things, because as human beings we we can tend to focus on everything that is wrong with our lives instead of being grateful for we have, these days we live in very materialistic times and I think as people we don’t tend to think about, what we already have and focus on what we don’t have.

Which of course leads to negative feelings within ourselves ? so when you are feeling a bit unfulfilled with your life because you don’t tend to think that you have enough materialistic possessions, step back for a while and think about what you have as a person rather than what you could fill your life with as regards products etc.

Here are some things you can be grateful for:

  • Having two arms two hands all 10 fingers
  • Having two legs and two feet
  • Having a face that looks quite a normal and not disfigured in any way
  • Having two eyes to be able to see without any problems.
  • Having two ears and being able to hear without any problems.
  • Being able to walk without any problems for long distances.
  • Being able to talk properly and having a conversation with someone, without any difficulty
  • Being able to think and come up with it ideas and concepts, that you probably never even imagine that you could do before.
  • Having a head that looks quite normal without any disfigurement.
  • Having very good health most of your life with only the odd thing that happens every so often like colds and so forth.
  • Being able to laugh at things when they are funny.

These things alone are worth their weight in gold the reason being is if you have got these faculties alone, then you should be really one grateful happy human being.

The reason I say this is because there are so many people who have crippling diseases, disabilities and yet even when we are not that bad off as who we are, we tend to think more about the things which are missing in our lives such as the bigger house, the bigger car, the swimming pool, the bigger pay rise instead of focusing on ourselves and what we already have as people alone.
