When I am having a bad day, and my self talk wants to complain (that’s right, I’m not perfect!), I sometimes catch myself and say “Look at what I have to be thankful for” or “Look what has gone right” or “Look how far I (we) have come since we started”.
It helps a lot.
Jim Rohn said “Learn to be thankful for what you have while you pursue all that you want”.
What do you have to be thankful for?
Happy family, freedom to do what I want to do, good health and with a little grit, more wealth soon to come!
Happy, happy anniversary!❤️
Larry, thanks for this morning’s THINK DAILY. You provided me with a reminder to stop, look around and “smell the roses.” As my company enters its 20th year, I’m reminded of how I started this business in a spare bedroom of my home. Now, every morning I start the day waling through the construction site of our new offices. We grow by helping other businesses grow. When they succeed, our company succeeds. And when the company succeeds, our team succeeds. And the success of our clients helps the economy by putting dollars back into the economy and producing jobs. I have so much to be thankful for.
Thank you Larry. The Think Daily topic was just what I needed to read. I’m thankful for an amazing wife to share this life with, family (especially grandchildren!), freedom, health, business, forgiveness of sin, Downin Lane Quartet, Pleasant View Baptist Church and the list could go on and on. That’s the point of your post, I have so much to be thankful for. God bless you Larry.
Thankful even for the days when I feel it necessary to wear my Apollo 13 tee shirt: “Failure is not an option.”
Happy 24th Anniversary!!! I am grateful for our family we have raised and all the many friends we have made along the way. Thank you for sharing your life with me.
Thankful for my wonderful family, amazing friends and the good fortune to have a career that I love!
Happy Anniversary to you and Wendy!
Larry, I was just studying this last night then I read this think daily this morning, Pretty Cool
Philippians 4:12 “I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.” NIRV
And then we all should know the following verse Phillipians 4:13; “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”
I am grateful for “ALL” because it is only mine to borrow for a short period of time.
I am thankful and grateful for my three beautiful sons.
For my Mom & Dad and brother and sisters.
For my wonderful circle of friends.
Most of all
I am thankful and grateful for learning how to forgive…
It’s one of the greatest gifts that you can give yourself.
Forgiveness is unlocking the door to set someone free and…
Realizing YOU were the prisoner.
Forgiveness is the Final Form of Love.
I am Thankful and Grateful for all of the opportunities that YOU have given me over the years…All of the amazing experiences, all of the lessons, all of the failures that I have and continue to learn from.
Happy Anniversary Wendy & Larry
What don’t I have to be thankful for? It is a much shorter list.
Live life with a thankful heart and every day is a gift!
