Prosperity Article - The Power of Thanks

The words we choose do have power, and they reflect a good deal of what is going on inside us. Whether you express thanks a hundred times a day, or haven't let these words pass through your lips in quite some time, the fact is the power of thanks can change your world today.

Thanks Changes Us

When we have a heart attitude of thankfulness, greed and all that goes with it go out the door. It's just not possible for greed, envy, bitterness, jealousy, and all those other nasties that attempt to invade our brain, to live in a heart full of gratitude.

People often attempt to change and grow by shedding old, bad habits. While a focus on what you want to change is good, the fastest way to achieve that change is to replace bad thoughts and attitudes with good. Ask yourself what you have to be thankful for today. Keep your focus in the now. Can you walk? Can you read? Can you change? Are you in control of your own destiny? These are but a few of the things for which we can all be grateful.

Thanks Changes Others

Here's a fun experiment. Take the time to stop someone you love today and tell him or her how much you honestly appreciate them. Now this does not have to be some soap opera moment with hot, romantic glances and swelling violins -- although you can do that if you like. ;)

Simply take time to think about what the person you choose means to you. What impact do they have in your life? How do they make your world richer by simply being there for you? Once you have zeroed in on that, take a moment to tell them sincerely how you feel and thank them for their contribution. Now watch their eyes as you tell them.

Thanks Changes the World

Once you take the time to sincerely thank that special person in your life, you will have changed the world for the better. Now that person will take those good feelings and probably pass them on to others.

Think of the impact you could have on the world if you simply took the time once a day to single out a special someone and show that sincere appreciation. What if that person caught the “Thanks virus“ from you and passed it on to just one other. Now what would happen if only one person a day began to do this? Pie in the sky? Far from it.

To think … one simple attitude and one simple action … changing you, changing me, changing the world. When you develop an “attitude of gratitude,“ you crowd destructive emotions from your heart and mind, become happier and make others happier too. I call that a win-win-win.
