Grateful people are happier people.
Do you believe that? I do!
True happiness comes from deep within us. It comes from being grateful and content with what we have in life – the big things and the little things. In order to achieve this, we need to be mindful as we go about our lives, to notice those little things and see the big picture. Gratitude goes a long way towards making life more wonderful.
The authors of The Grateful Life, Nina Lesowitz and Mary Beth Sammons, have put together a wonderful book that can help anyone who is looking for a happier and more contented life. Each chapter is filled with practical information along with tips that will help readers take action and apply the principles to their own life.
I’d recommend taking it a chapter at a time instead of reading it straight through. You’ll want to pause and reflect as you shift your thoughts and actions to a life that is filled with gratitude and contentment.
