10 Ways to Practice Gratitude Daily

Gratitude is the simple act of counting your blessings. Sometimes those blessings seem hard to find, but you should start, even if it is the smallest thing you can think of, like waking up, before you know it you will have more and more to be grateful for in your life. Soon, you are beaming around town radiating gratitude. There is always a reason to be grateful.

Ways to Practice Gratitude

Wake Up to Gratitude
Start your day with gratitude. When you open your eyes in the morning, your first words should be “Thank you.” You should start your day saying, thank you. Just do it, don’t argue, morning person or not, you woke up today, so say thank you.

I use the Gratitude Mantra from the moment I sit up in bed, put my slippers on, and start my day. I just repeat the words, “thank you.”

Pay attention and try to notice things you can be grateful for throughout your day.

Gratitude Journal
A Gratitude Journal can be anything from a plain notebook to a fancy journal, or an actual Gratitude Journal. This practice is for those who love journaling as a self-help tool.

In your journal, you write a list of things you are grateful for each day. Most people journal first thing in the morning or at night before they go to sleep. There are no rules; I would suggest using your journal whenever the spirit moves you.

Gratitude Mantra
Saying the words, “Thank You,” as a mantra. I love this form of practicing gratitude, as I have found it to be the quickest way for me to change my mood. If I find myself stumbling out of my joy zone, as in, I noticed that my emotions have slipped out of optimal happiness mode. I just repeat the words, thank you, over and over and in less than two minutes I am feeling better. (more…)

Be Patient Poem by Rainer Maria Rilke

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue.

Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything.

Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.

This is part of the Levnow Poetry for your Soul Series. As a new fan of peotry I am starting to love the lessons woven into the prose. I hope you enjoy these as a little break from the someone but not really heavy self-help posts.

My Takeaway from the poem Be Patient by Rainer Maria Rilke

This poem is a reminder to live in the moment, the questions about tomorrow cannot be answered today, so why bother. Remember the present is all you have, use it to create the future of your dreams.

The Importance of Gratitude

Gratitude is the fastest, cheapest, easiest, and healthiest mood changer on the planet. Gratitude will change your mood within minutes. I would say seconds, but I am not trying to oversell gratitude here, but, believe me, it works.

It is the simplest things ever. When I first started using gratitude as my first choice to “feel better now,” I had two things, my niece and the sky (granted I live in San Francisco, we have beautiful sky, when it is not foggy.) What I am trying to say is that you can start with something as simple as that, not the beautiful niece, but the sky, and you can build up from there.

There are so many ways to practice the art of gratitude. Find a practice that works for you and one you can incorporate effortlessly into your everyday life.

Gratitude is the simple act of counting your blessings. Sometimes things seem too hard to find what the blessings are but even if you start small, the act of gratitude multiplies itself. You can start with one thing, then you have two, then you have four. Before you know it, you are beaming around town radiating gratitude.

Attitude of Gratitude

The magic you create with an Attitude of Gratitude will amaze you every moment you notice the changes in your day because you took two minutes to find five things to be grateful for today. With our hectic lifestyles, you have to learn to take control of how you are feeling in each moment. That is what living eternal vigilance is all about.

Choose to adopt an attitude of gratitude, and take control of your emotions by stopping when you feel yourself tighten with stress, and remember the things you are grateful for today.

Conditions: Stress, worry, anger, fear, and all other horrible feelings you could have
Self-Help Tool: Gratitude
Prescription: First thing in the morning before getting out of bed and any other time of the day you feel yourself deep into the negative. Last thing you do at night as you fall asleep. Start a gratitude journal.

What is an attitude of gratitude?

We all have things that we are grateful for in our lives. An attitude of gratitude means living in a state where you focus on what you are thankful for at this moment, and in each moment you are conscious of your thought space (i.e., what you are thinking). With an attitude of gratitude, you are developing a mindset for success.

Living with an attitude of gratitude you are choosing to focus on what you grateful for in order to keep your emotional frequency on the positive side of the scale, shift your emotions from positive to negative or most importantly, keep yourself on the frequency you need to manifest the things you want.
