Authentic Influence© by Raju MandhyanWhy an Attitude of Gratitude?For a long time I did NOT want to talk about gratitude. Perhaps, I wasn't much grateful inside of me OR perhaps, I thought "gratitude" was for the birds. It was soft, fluffy, and mushy like pink cotton candy. Nope, I did not much care for an attitude of gratitude until I was asked to do a workshop on it a few months ago.
Now, I have learned that gratitude carries a better kick than mindfulness, meditation even days and months of hedonistic indulgences.
