When I admire the wonder of a sunset or the beauty of the moon my soul expands in worship of the Creator.–Mahatma Ghandi

Miracles do happen — everyday. Every second, babies are born, flowers bloom, the sun rises and sets, people meet new friends and fall in love, good samaritans appear, and everywhere there is a new creation. A fish does not notice the water because she swims in it. Most of us don’t notice the abundance of miracles because they are everywhere, they are so natural like breathing. Oh, breathing, another miracle.

To become leaders, we must be grateful. Be thankful for everything that we have. Some of us ask God to help us become stronger and wiser. And when we don’t like what God gives us, we call it problems, not miracles. Be thankful. A philosopher once said that if you don’t know how to pray, a “thank you” is more than enough. Grateful people are happy people too. Leaders are not meant to be unhappy, don’t you think?

Try this experiment. For the next seven days, include this in your morning ritual: thank God for a new day. Start a Gratitude Journal. List everything that you must be thankful of.

Thank you.
