The season of gratitude is here, and we're reflecting on all the reasons we feel thankful. We share what's on our hearts in this blog post: https://lnkd.in/gvb79Sbi

Celebrating my 35th birthday today! Here’s to another year filled with lessons, smiles, and so much more. Cheers! 🥂 6/6/89 Reflecting on some key lessons I’ve learned over the years: 1. Compound Growth: Life is a marathon, not a sprint. Small, consistent efforts lead to significant improvements over time. 2. Relationships: True connections are built on how we show up for each other. It’s the quality of our presence that matters most. 3. Embracing Discomfort: Growth often happens outside our comfort zones. It’s okay not to have all the answers. 4. Faith: Trust that there’s a greater plan at work. God didn’t bring us this far just to leave us here. 5. Gratitude: Be thankful for the past, but even more grateful for the present moment.

Today's Positive Thought 11-26-24 Being thankful is really very easy. It’s even easier when you understand and experience how powerful it can be. Gratitude gives you a distinct advantage. And it is just as reasonable and just as accessible as any alternative. It’s easy and natural to complain when life is not meeting your expectations. What if it were just as easy, just as natural to be thankful and to see the good in whatever is going on? In fact, it can be just as easy, and completely natural, to be thankful. All you have to do is make the choice. Remind yourself how easy it can be to simply be thankful. Then take that easy route to real richness in life. There is no good reason to deny yourself the power of gratitude. This Thanksgiving Holiday, make the easy choice to be thankful, and you’ll easily be grateful you did. Have a great day !

Gratitude isn’t just a feeling—it’s a choice. Happy Thanksgiving to all our U.S. friends and beyond. Thanksgiving is more than turkey and traditions. It’s a reminder of the power of reflection. A chance to pause in a world that rarely slows down. It shifts our focus from what’s missing to what we already have. The people in our lives. The lessons we’ve learned. The small wins that carry us forward. Gratitude isn’t passive—it’s transformative. It re-centers us, helping us lead and live with purpose. So today, whether you’re celebrating with family or reflecting quietly, take a moment. Choose gratitude. What are you most grateful for this year?

Never a Bad Time to be Grateful While Thanksgiving undoubtedly presents an opportune time for gratitude, I think it’s a dominant strategy to always be grateful. When we choose to be grateful, it can transform even the most challenging situations: declining an offer from someone, sharing difficult news, etc.  Gratitude allows our sincerity shine through more effectively and helps us maintain our integrity during these interactions.  I work quite a few gratefulness practices and there are 2 that I really like: 1. Upon waking, say out loud 5 things that I’m grateful for.  This puts a healthy ‘lens’ on for the day. 2. Prior to meetings, intentionally create my way of being and include gratitude as part of it.  I stay more centered this way. Thanks Ron Macklin for this one. I’m curious what works for everyone else.

Happy Thanksgiving! Take a moment to pause and reflect: What’s one thing you’re thankful for that happened this year? Who has made a difference in your life recently? Write it down, share it with someone, or simply hold onto it in your heart. Gratitude can shift your perspective and help you see the good, even in challenging times. What are you grateful for today?

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. But can we talk about something for a second? Why do we only take one day a year to say “thank you”? To appreciate the people in our lives? To reflect on what we’re grateful for? Life moves fast. We spend most of it chasing the next goal, the next milestone, the next big thing. And it’s so easy to forget the little things: → That friend who checks in on you randomly. → That colleague who makes work feel less like work. → That stranger who held the door when you were in a rush. Here’s what I’ve learned: - Gratitude isn’t just about the big wins. - It’s about noticing the small moments that make life beautiful. So, this Thanksgiving, let’s try something different. Let’s not just say “thank you” today. Let’s carry it with us—every day, in every way. - Tell someone they matter. - Appreciate the small joys. - Celebrate the now. Because life doesn’t wait for a holiday to give us moments worth being thankful for. P.S.: What’s one thing you’re most thankful for this year?
