Daily habits of gratitude<\/strong> and appreciation are one of the highest emotional states<\/strong> you can experience. When you cultivate gratitude, you\u2019re able to feel true joy and contentment, no matter what you have or don\u2019t have in your life.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cBe thankful for what you have; you\u2019ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don\u2019t have, you will never, ever have enough.\u201d \u2013 Oprah Winfrey<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Law of Attraction states that like attracts like, when you\u2019re grateful for what you already have, you will naturally attract more for which you can be grateful.<\/p>\n

However, many people find that it requires great diligence to cultivate a persistent attitude of appreciation. That\u2019s because we\u2019ve been culturally conditioned to focus on what we don\u2019t<\/em> have, rather than appreciating what we\u2019ve already received or achieved.<\/p>\n

To help you combat this conditioning, here are 6 simple tips on how to make gratitude \u2013 one of the most important habits of successful people<\/a> \u2013 a natural daily habit, so you can attract more joy and abundance into your life all year long:<\/p>\n

Discover how you can use affirmations to practice and create daily habits of gratitude with this free affirmations guide<\/a><\/span>.<\/span><\/div>\n

1. Take 7 minutes each morning to write down everything you appreciate in life<\/h3>\n

Starting your day this way primes you to be receptive and grateful for everything your day will bring. It also helps you cultivate an air of positivity that makes you naturally more attractive to other positive people \u2013 and inspires them to want to help you achieve your goals.<\/p>\n

2. Make a conscious effort to appreciate at least 3 people every day<\/h3>\n

By letting people know how much you appreciate them, you increase their own sense of appreciation and self-worth\u00a0and encourage them to pay this positive energy forward to other people.<\/p>\n

While most people enjoy receiving verbal appreciation, written notes are also nice because they can be saved and re-read. (For ideas on expressing appreciation, grab your copy of\u00a0The Success Principles<\/a><\/em>\u00a0and review Principle 53: Practice Uncommon Appreciation.)<\/p>\n

3. Play the appreciation game<\/h3>\n

Set a specific time each day to consciously appreciate everything you encounter. An ideal time to do this is on your way to or from work. Appreciate the people you pass, the road you walk on, the cars that let you merge into a different lane, the street signs that make it easy for you to know where you\u2019re going, the rain that\u2019s nourishing the plants and trees, and so on.<\/p>\n

Look for the good in all situations \u2013 even those you would normally view as negative. As the saying goes, \u201cEvery cloud has a silver lining.\u201d For example, when my wife was in a car accident a few years ago, she could have chosen to berate herself or question her judgment. Instead, she focused on her gratitude for suffering only minor injuries and for the help she received from other drivers.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Carry a physical token of gratitude in your pocket, such as a heart-shaped stone, crystal, or some other small item<\/h3>\n

A physical reminder can bring you back to your daily habit practice of gratitude when your mind has drifted elsewhere. As you reach into your pocket throughout the day and feel the token, use it as a reminder to stop, breathe and take a moment to fully experience the emotion of gratitude. The more conscious effort you put into seeking it out, the easier it will be to find it \u2013 and the more powerful your experience will be.<\/p>\n

5. Remember to appreciate the smallest blessings<\/h3>\n

The best way to activate your gratitude is by acknowledging the gifts most people take for granted. If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes in your closet and a roof over your head, you are better off than 75 percent of the world\u2019s population.<\/p>\n

If you eat three meals a day, you are far better off than the 1 billion people on the planet who eat once a day at most.<\/p>\n

Do you have a phone?\u00a0 How about a car that allows you to travel to work or to explore the country? Is your family healthy? Do you have a computer and Internet access to stay in touch with the world, get access to education, and perform work for which you are paid? Do you have clean water to drink?<\/p>\n

Celebrate these simple blessings. These daily conveniences are gifts that most people in the world do not enjoy.<\/p>\n

6. Appreciate yourself<\/h3>\n

Finally, don\u2019t forget to appreciate your OWN positive qualities and accomplishments. In addition to celebrating your big successes, acknowledge your small daily successes too. We all need acknowledgment, but the most important acknowledgment is that which we give ourselves.<\/p>\n

It may not feel natural at first to focus on appreciating what you already have, but by faithfully practicing the daily habits of gratitude outlined in this article, you\u2019ll begin to change your conditioning.<\/p>\n

To kick-start your daily gratitude practice, take a few moments to share at least three things for which you\u2019re grateful for in the comments. Even the smallest act of gratitude will have a positive impact on your life.<\/p>\n

I look forward to reading what you share!<\/p>\n
