Practice Gratitude Before You Have To!

Hey Friend!

Do you intentionally express gratitude for the things in your life?

Or were you like me a few years ago, and just assumed that people knew you were grateful?

No matter where you are right now, I want to share with you my tips on how I have grown on this topic!

So prior to 2018, I thought I was a pretty grateful person...I had a good family, great career, fabulous friends, and thought I expressed my gratitude for all of this!

But then I was introduced to a Morning Routine from my business coaches and my mind was blown when they told me I should take 3-4 minutes each day to write down 3 things I was grateful for.

I honestly did not get it right away until I read Denise Duffield-Thomas book "Get Rich Lucky Bitch" where she explains that in order for the universe (or whoever you express your gratitude to) to know you are grateful you have to express it OUT LOUD!

Which makes total sense, because we do the same for each other as people right! 

"Thank you for holding the door" 

"Thank you for buying my coffee" 

"Thank you for listening"

In this episode of The Sailynn Show I am sharing with you why you should express gratitude and some honest thoughts on why this is so impactful in your life!

My goal is to bring you a weekly YouTube video with also a Free Resource you can use in your life right away! This week I am sharing my Gen X Survival Guide - A 10 Minute Morning Routine to Start Each Day Refreshed & Excited to Check Off Your To Do List, So You Can Achieve Work-Life Balance & Create a Life You Love!

After going through this free resource you will hear my story about gratitude and some tips on why and how to simply say Thank You!

Ways to Express Gratitude #1

Let's say you are running around and someone holds the door open for you!  Say "Thank You So Much, That was So Kind of You" to let them know you intentionally are expressing gratitude!  The extra words shows someone that you really meant it and it was not just an automatic response that meant nothing!

Then do the same for someone else, hold that door open for them!

Ways to Express Gratitude #2

When someone buys your coffee in the Dunkin Donuts line and they are not there to personally thank, a simple gesture is to do the same for the next person!

And don't forget to say thank you to the person who bought it for you out loud, I am sure they will feel your gratitude come through!

Ways to Express Gratitude #3

And finally, truly express your gratitude to friends or family for listening to you!  Whether it is your ideas, your sorrow, your excitement, whatever it may be!  A simple gesture could be "Thank you so much for taking your time to listen to me. I am truly grateful for your friendship."

Another way to pay it forward is to be present, when someone is looking for you to listen to them.  Shut off distractions and just listen to them!

TODAY is the best day to get started practicing gratitude!  It has made me a better person and I know it will do the same for you!
