How does being grateful create more abundance in your life? I think it is mostly contained in these words, I read this on Twitter a long time ago, but this is something I try to remember and ponder regularly.

“If you focus on what you have, you gain what you lack. And if you focus on what you lack, you lose what you have.”  — Greg McKeown (@GregoryMcKeown on Twitter)

I used to get so caught up in getting after what I wanted, that I lost site of all the things I had. When the road got bumpy, it was really bad because I had lost site of all the things that were already good in my life. It indeed created lack for me.

Maybe we can take some time to make a list of what we are thankful for. With Thanksgiving coming this week, it is a great time to do it.
