First response

If you find yourself feeling judgmental, let it be a reminder to feel thankful instead. When you notice yourself obsessing over what’s wrong, let that prompt you to focus instead on all that is good and right with life.

Gratitude is a quick-acting remedy to whatever gets you down. Gratitude opens your awareness to positive possibilities and gives you greater access to the abundance that surrounds you.

A day that begins with gratitude is a day likely to result in meaningful progress. Begin the day being thankful and you’ll end the day with even more to be thankful for.

Gratitude is more than just being nice and saying thank you. Gratitude is a powerful strategy that energizes you with effectiveness and resourcefulness in every area of life.

Every situation is an opportunity to be thankful. Take those opportunities, and turn those situations into positive, fulfilling experiences.

Make gratitude your first response. It makes everything you do more effective and fulfilling.

— Ralph Marston
