“The Energy Discipline”
“Give Gratitude!”

Every day is a day to give thanks. Just waking up is a moment to give thanks. Being grateful for life in general is so important to and responsible for all the goodness we experience. There is always someone out there who has a worse day, a worse life, a worse job, a worse parent or a worse car. Think about it. When was the last time you spoke out loud about your gratefulness about your life? If you didn’t say today – shame on you!
The word is, “Thank you!” How long does it take to say that? We spend more time chatting on Facebook than we do giving thanks for all the little miracles in our day.
So often, when things do not seem to go our way, we immediately jump to conclusions that things are going wrong. This could not be further from the truth. Only later when we realize that if it had gone the way we wanted it to we would possibly have suffered some incredible hardship. Sometimes we are actually cognizant of this fact and we give thanks. However, more often than not we hold on to our indignation that things did not go our way. Stubborn little beggars we are.
It took many years of writing a gratitude journal to have me come to grips with the power in it. There is not one day, however, that I have not deliberately given thanks for all the good in my life. I come to expect it now. In those times, that my life may not have been feeling so great, I always sought out the gift in the apparent bleakness. Believe me, I inevitably found that gift – sooner or later.
Giving gratitude does not only apply to those things that we love in life. It applies to those hard knocks and sometime painful experiences that we as human beings so often endure. When you are lamenting that you have nothing – decide to be grateful and give thanks for what you DO have! When you are saying that you have nothing to give – give something! Keeping a gratitude journal is what can save your life!
