When you are grateful and optimistic, you attract more success and financial blessings. Lets say you gave someone a gift and it was a book filled with valuable knowledge that you knew would definitely help someone achieve a particular goal.
If he or she displayed gratitude and actually read the book, you’d be excited to give that person more books in the future. If the person was ungrateful and told you he or she didn’t like reading, then you’d never want to give him or her a book again. The person’s lack of gratitude just blocked future blessings of knowledge and wisdom.
This is the same with life. Life is the most precious gift we have been given by God our creator. We must always have a mindset of gratitude if we expect to experience an abundant life and have limitless wealth.
Things are never perfect, but there is always something to be optimistic about. Do you see the glass half empty of half full? Its ok to acknowledge problems, but don’t complain and dwell on them.
The more you complain, the less time you have to find a solution. Nobody cares about your problems and nobody wants to hear them.
The only people who like to hear other people’s problems are miserable and unsuccessful. The old saying is misery loves company. You shouldn’t be hanging around these characters anyway.
If you have reasonably good health, then you should be grateful. Don’t take blessings for granted. Be happy that you can walk, talk, hear, see, breathe, etc. Appreciate your clothing, food and shelter.
There are millions of people who would love to be in your shoes; literally. There are a lot people without shoes in the world. I’ve seen people tie plastic soda bottles to their feet to serve as makeshift sandals.
No way should you be content or satisfied, but you can be grateful while staying hungry for more. Being grateful is how you get more!
Gratitude and optimism gives you the energy to recognize and seize opportunities. Ungrateful complainers are blind to opportunities. They are too focused on singing the blues.
When the stock market takes a downturn, optimistic people see it as a blessing to be able to buy good stocks at lower prices. Pessimistic complainers only see losses and fear that a huge economic recession is coming. Pessimistic people sell at a loss while optimistic people buy low and make big profits later.
Life is 10% what happens and 90% how you respond. 99% of all the wealthy and successful people I’ve met display gratitude and optimism. This is one of the biggest reasons they became rich. A pleasing, optimistic and gracious personality will take you down the path of greatness.
This is the best time in the history of mankind to get rich. Only in this modern era could a person make $100,000 per month playing videos games. Be gracious and take advantage of opportunities. All things are possible.
