The power of GRATITUDE

Gratitude
[Thói quen giúp ngủ ngon làm việc hiệu quả, thúc đẩy mối quan hệ tích cực]
What do you feel thankful for today?

One day, in our Hanoi Entrepreneur Community, a dear friend asked me about my practice on gratitude, it would be one of my favorite questions of all time because gratitude changed me from a bitter kid to become a cheerful kid and brought me back from different down moments in life.

WHY gratitude can change us?
The fundamental reason can be gratitude shifts our focus. When you feel thankful, your focus follows so your energy goes to that direction, leaving behind the negativity.

WHAT are the daily practices for gratitude?
To think about what do you feel grateful for, it can be at a conscious level of before evening or after waking up or it can be an instant moment of reflection after each event!

And yes, after that gratitude feeling in the morning, it will be great to bring that energy to complete the first important project to create results to reinforce our habits of being grateful!

hank for reading and practicing gratitude with me my friends! You are my gratitude!
