The day of reflection, feasting and expressing the gratitude-The Thanksgiving is going to be soon upon

us. Since, we all have different approach towards life; it can be quite a challenge for each one of us to

have an outlook of gratitude.

This is particularly true in case of individuals, who can’t get away with negativity, bitterness, pride,

selfishness or self-pity and who are always complaining. For such people, an attitude of gratitude can

change the things considerably and will transform their life for good.

And with Thanksgiving around the corner, why not take this opportunity to foster this brilliant approach

of thankfulness and gratitude in our lives.

Here are 10 things you can be grateful this holiday:

1. Family

It doesn’t matter whether you are close or far away from your family; just take some time out to think

about what your brothers, sisters and parents mean to you. Appreciate all the good things about them.

Organize a Thanksgiving dinner party and invite your family members over. If you stay away from your

parents and siblings, call them and thank them for everything they have done for you.

2. Your strength

Take a moment to appreciate what you have achieved or how you endured the rough times and came

through it. Acknowledge your strengths as it can lead to more good things.

sorrows, tell your mistakes, make you feel happy…Send them a bouquet or text them telling how much

you value their friendship.

4. Health

Without a good health, it would be impossible to achieve the major goals in life. So, don’t take your

health for granted and, make efforts to improve your fitness. Even if you are not hale and hearty at

5. Opportunities

Look back at the last few months, and be grateful for the opportunities that you got and which

culminated into success.

the last few days.
