Avoid These Barriers to Grateful

An Excerpt from Dan’s 7 Impossibilities of Gratitude

#1. Worry

You can’t worry and be grateful in the same moment.

Don’t worry about overcoming worry. Just notice and acknowledge benefit or advantage every day.

#2. Complaining

You can’t complain and practice gratitude with the same breath.

Tip: Breathe in deeply and breathe out “thank you” like a silent meditation.

#3. Anger

You can’t be grateful and angry at the same time.
