We keep talking about positive thinking but until and unless we are truly grateful for our life and of who we are, no positive thinking will ever do the job. If I am to tell you the secret ingredient to happiness it is being grateful everyday.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So the next question naturally would be how to do stay in a state of gratitude? It is simple. Compare yourself to what you were 12 months back, or 2 years back. Even if you are doing slightly better now that is an achievement in itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><br>So the next time your inner critic is not being kind, when self doubt is screaming at you, remind yourself how far you have come. And that you are meant to go further now. It is not the end until you start believing it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is another post of mine where I mention the importance of being grateful, you can check it here: <a href=\"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/how-to-save-yourself-from-drowning\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/how-to-save-yourself-from-drowning\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do let me know in comments below how you all practice gratitude in your everyday lives<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"554\" height=\"693\" src=\"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/41d407c72e60e03d40f4585d777af4c7.jpg\" alt=\"Being Grateful Everyday\" class=\"wp-image-687\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/41d407c72e60e03d40f4585d777af4c7.jpg 554w, https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/41d407c72e60e03d40f4585d777af4c7-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 554px) 100vw, 554px\" \/><figcaption>Being Grateful Everyday<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If I am to tell you the secret ingredient to happiness it is being grateful everyday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[285,275],"views":267,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=498"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":689,"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498\/revisions\/689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=498"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=498"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reasonstolivefor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=498"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
