Gratitude Challenge To Success And Happiness

Gratitude is a key ingredient in achieving success and happiness. The link between success, happiness and gratitude is that you have to be successful first and then be grateful. I believe this is not so.  People will argue that before you can express gratitude, you have to have something to be grateful for.  This is the Gratitude Challenge.

What happens when things go wrong in the pursuit of success? It is the time when one needs to look around to appreciate the progress one has made and the support one has received from loved ones. Isn’t the grateful attitude encouraging enough to stay on the path to success, regardless of the obstacles that come with it?

I hope the how to attract happiness infographic below helps you to be happier in life.

Focus On The Positives In Your Life

When you focus on the positives, you will gather more courage and inner strength to take on whatever life brings. Grateful for the journey you have taken, with the constant appreciation of victory over the challenges you have gone through, gives you the energy to stand up and go for it. Seeing people who have gone through tough times and being grateful will urge you to move forward not only for them, but for yourself as well.

 A Thankful Attitude Helps To Be Happier

Happiness grows even in challenging times. You become more optimistic and enthusiastic. When you are happy and enthusiastic, it leads you to push harder towards the achievement of your set goals. When you achieve the goals you set, you bring more joy and satisfaction into your life, which leads to gratitude. In this way, you create a cycle that begins and ends with gratitude. Gratitude for small things leads to happiness. The more you progress with your goals in life, the happier and more grateful you will be.

Your Perception Of Life Is Important

‘When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears.’  by Tony Robbins.

Being positive and grateful changes your outlook on life. If you are feeding fear and negativity internally, you will express it externally. This approach affects your life, your business and your relationships. The grateful attitude is contagious when you express it from the inside going out. People will want to be around you, which also helps when you pursue your dreams.

An Example Of Practicing Gratitude

Try this, write a thankyou note to neighbors and anyone who has helped you in any way.  Write a thankyou note every day for a year and see what happens in your life.

An Expression Of Gratitude

To be successful, try to show appreciation for what you have, when there seems to be little to be thankful for. Be grateful for your line of work or the friendships you have built in your line of work and let them inspire you.

Instead of dwelling on the obstacles you face, be grateful for the lessons learned and use them to your advantage. Remind yourself in advance of the obstacles you have encountered in your journey.

‘If you take responsibility for yourself, you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dream.’ by Les Brown.

By making gratitude a habit, watch your success and happiness grow!  Adapt the attitude of gratitude.
