Everyone wants to be BIG. But do you know the easiest

way to be BIG? “Be In Gratitude”.

This might seem an innocent sentence at a glance, but don’t get misled by it. It indeed has the power to transform the entire outlook of life. It is all about changing the way you look at life and people in general. It is a great way – the way of gratitude. 'Gratitude' has come from the Latin word gratus, which mean 'pleasing' or 'thankful‘.

You need to be grateful for every single thing that helps you in life. One really humbling experience is

to express gratitude to your footwear. Sounds ridiculous? You have never done it before?

Then do it right now. Take a minute to go to your footwear and tell it from the bottom of your heart that you are grateful to it for the way it protects your feet.

Tell your footwear that you value it. Do it now. Pay attention to your feelings while you do it. You will

realize the importance of this exercise the next time you wear your footwear.

Practicing mindfulness with gratitude leads you to a direct feeling of connected to life. It also brings the realization

that there is a wider context in which your personal story is unfolding.

Getting relieved of the never ending worries and wants of your life, even temporarily, is liberating. Gratitude elicits

the feelings of generosity that create happiness.

Gratitude has a power to soften a heart that has become too guarded. Gratitude builds the capacity for forgiveness that

creates the clarity of mind.
