SFS Minute 944: Gratitude

Human attention naturally gravitates toward problems in modern life. We have a constant focus on problems and how they overshadow all of the positive experiences in our life. We do this to our own detriment. You must learn to get mentally stronger by focusing on the right things and having the right response and the right attitude. I will give my last tip of the week right after this. When we focus on how to become mentally stronger, we must also practice gratitude. Gratitude restores balance regularly. Recognizing what is working well changes how the mind interprets daily events. If you are happy for the good things and do not focus on the bad things, your mental strength will increase. Noticing and appreciating the good that already exists is the key to happiness and mental strength.
