“Make
gratitude a habit you indulge in each night.” - Pooja Ruprell
Words to
live by. I have been working a long time to be grateful. I should hope I am
grateful.
I am Canadian and am privileged to live in such a peaceful country. My house is
being paid for. It is warm. There are no holes in it. I ate over 2,000 calories
today (according to my diet tracker). I don’t want for anything. I earn money
to pay my bills.
I have
friends and business partners I enjoy being with. I enjoy the company of my
students and coworkers. I enjoy what I do for a living and am building a
business that will eclipse all of that.
Currently,
we have three special animals we are sharing our lives with. Bosley is the best
dog ever. Salix the Cat is racing us with her presence. JuJu the parrot is
tolerating us!

I have
amazing kids. Morgan is finding his life’s path early and Ainsley did that a
little earlier. I am at peace that they are finding the wind for their wings
and are on their lifes’ path.
I can’t even
begin to describe how grateful I am for Linda and the relationship she and I
have. We have together built amazingly full lives and have helped guide Ainsley
and Morgan along their ways as well.
I used to
live my life day by day, week by week. Pretty much ignoring what was important,
When I started each night, as I was falling asleep, being grateful for what I
have my life started changing. When you are being very conscious about being grateful
for someone, you can’t but help treat them better. I much prefer falling asleep
with positive thoughts in my mind.
I do the same
each morning. As I am waiting on my snooze button I remember all that I am
grateful for. What a great way to start the day. In an attitude of gratitude. That
gratitude follows me in my mind all day.
I also do
two more things. Darren Hardy says he sends good vibes or a prayer out to
someone he knows that may need some help. So if I can I try to send out good
thoughts to someone that needs it. John Maxwell does something as well. Similar
but not quite. Mr. Maxwell teaches us to lead an intentional life so what he
does is thinks about who he is going to interact with that day and
intentionally help them or be a positive influence on them.
What a great
way to start your day. What a great way to end it.
