Before we look at the gratitude quotes I've provided for you here, let's briefly talk about why you want an attitude of gratitude. First and foremost, there are several health benefits to having a grateful attitude residing in your body. Research has shown that it helps lift depression and relieve stress, but there's another unusual benefit of gratitude... And that is that you can actually change other people around you to be more grateful. I found this rather fascinating when I was doing my research for my gratitude articles, so I've written an entire article entitled, “As We Express Our Gratitude, We Change the World Around Us.” Take a moment to visit that article now by clicking here and see for yourself how having an attitude of gratitude affects people around you. Then click the back button and I'll be here waiting...
Now that you know the “why,” lets briefly discuss the “how.” Although keeping gratitude quotes around you is a great tool for elevating your mind to be grateful, there are other tools that work in tandem with quotes of gratitude. And did you notice that I used the word, “elevate?” That's because on the emotional scale, gratitude is at the top. The sad part is that many of us “resonate” at the bottom of the scale, which is just the opposite of being grateful. I think this is also a subject worth a moment of your time and I've discussed the emotional scale in relation to this subject in my article, “How to Develop Gratitude: Tools to Work Up the Emotional Scale.” Click here to take a peek at that article, then hit the back button and I'll be here.
What I've done here is taken some great gratitude quotes and made them available in a format where you can either print out the cards that I've made, or make your own with the down loadable PDF templates at the bottom (Yes, they're free, too!) The postcard and poster PDFs are formatted on 8.5 inch wide by 6.5 long paper, so you can use regular letter size for printing. Click on the image to open the PDF (for PCs you may need to right-click.) For the verses without cards, use the templates at the bottom of the page to make your own.

gratitude." ~Karl Barth “There
are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” ~Albert Einstein * “No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks." ~Unknown Tweet Tweet this page to your friends...
