Today’s wisdom is from Gratitude Works! by Robert Emmons, the world’s leading expert on the science of gratitude. (Check out our notes on his great books!)
Robert reminds us: “Gratitude is the simplest, most powerful way to transform your life.”
Practicing gratitude enhances well-being, strengthens relationships, and even improves physical health.
Here’s how to cultivate gratitude today:
1. Keep a Gratitude Journal. Robert tells us: “Writing down what you’re thankful for strengthens its impact.” So write down three things you’re grateful for right now.
2. Express Gratitude to Others. Robert tells us: “Gratitude strengthens social bonds.” So thank someone today for their kindness or support.
3. Savor Small Joys. “Gratitude turns ordinary moments into extraordinary ones.” Take a moment to appreciate something simple, like a meal or a conversation.
With all that in mind…
