The Power of Gratitude at Work and Why You Need It!

Getting to Clarity: Creating MORE Success With Less Sacrifice

The Power of Gratitude at Work and Why You Need It!

Yes, it's that season where you hear so much about Gratitude and being more grateful. But what if it actually gives you an advantage as a woman in business or an emerging leader who aspires to leadership? It does, and here's why!

Gratitude is a resource that everyone has access to but that too many overlook. But, I know you're a smart cookie and want to use all the tools at your disposal to create more success in your leadership and life.

• Gratitude is a tool that can allow you to feel happier (and doesn't your day go better and faster when that happens?).
• It is an endless resource that allows you to deal with challenges and adversity better and with more Clarity (isn't that something you'd like more of?).
• It even can improve your health, reducing your stress and anxiety...and it's FREE!

Gratitude is simply when you acknowledge the goodness in your life, even when some of that goodness comes in the form of a tough lesson that is designed to show you to your next level of leadership or life! It is remembering to reorient your thinking to kindness, yes, to others, but if I know you at all, it's mainly to remember kindness for yourself! Gratitude is finding every way you can to simply be thankful.

So if it's so simple, why does Gratitude work? Essentially, it's our brain releasing dopamine and serotonin when we practice Gratitude, and it makes us feel good from the inside out. So we are creating our own happiness from the inside and not relying on anyone or anything else.

So what are some of the easy ways that you can create more Gratitude at work? Great question!

You can strive to thrive with five!

Can you incorporate five acknowledgments of Gratitude in each workday? Here are some ideas to get you going. Can you be grateful for
