#1.
One of the quickest and easiest ways to create a more prosperous life is to start focusing more on gratitude.
How can such a simple technique create such impressive change? If you consider that we classify most of our experiences based on our perspective, you can see the power of choosing our focus wisely. Let’s look at a simple example of the power of perspective:
Imagine a man that has no money; not even a few dollars to buy a meal. Suddenly a stranger appears and hands him $20. How would he react to receiving $20? He’d probably be overcome with joy and gratitude!
Now imagine a man that has $200, but needs $1000 more to pay his rent by tomorrow. What would his reaction be to receiving $20 from a stranger? He’d probably be appreciative, but still mostly focused on what he DOESN’T have - $980 still needed to pay his rent.
This isn’t about the sum of money involved, but the FOCUS chosen in each example. You may think that a simple focus on gratitude can do nothing more than help you feel better about your life, but it goes much deeper than that.
Here are three powerful ways that an attitude of gratitude can change your life and increase your prosperity:
