157: The Power of Gratitude with Julie Boyer

It’s not happy people who are thankful.  It’s thankful people who are happy.

For the past year or so, expressing gratitude has been a daily habit.  It’s on my ‘Tanja’s ideal week” success tracker and I’ve been consistent, and it’s dramatically improved my life.  

Naturally, I was really excited to connect with Julie Boyer, who takes gratitude to a whole new level, and I learned a lot, and have already started to implement some of the action items we talked about on the show. 

She shared this quote:
“Without exception, begin every day of your life with gratitude. As you look in the mirror, say, “Thank you, God, for life, for my body, for my family and loved ones, for this day, and for the opportunity to be of service. Thank you, thank you, thank you!” -Wayne Dyer

How you can find gratitude during tough times Why gratitude is a choice, and how to choose it The power of being grateful for future situations and accomplishments
