“Thank you“ may be the most forgotten phrase in all mankind! Is the loss of a couple seconds of our time worth not expressing thanks?

What is thankfulness? 

• It is a way of fully acknowledging the other person.
• It is positive, finding the good side of a person.
• It is appreciation. 
• It changes the perspective from self to others.
• It elevates another while humbling self. 
• It accepts compliments with grace.
• It recognizes and enjoys the good qualities of someone.
• It passes on a feeling you had when someone appreciated you.
• It eliminates complaining, bitterness, entitlement, covetousness.

To begin, try writing five gratitudes first in a gratitude journal and then five short thank-yous to people at the end of a day. Imagine what the world would be like if every human being did this! It could even become a lifestyle!
