If you want to chart a course forward successfully, you need your mind to see things.

Your mind has to see a path forward and take stock of the resources you have and the role that they play in taking you to where you want to go (a degree, career, million dollars… whatever that is)

But first, your mind has to see the part and the possibility of reaching it from where you are now.

The key to this type of sight is gratitude

It is easy to think about where we are headed and what we need to get there but we are never going to get there with what we don’t have.
That’s where gratitude comes in!

Gratitude brings us to the realization of what we have rather than what we lack.

It makes us present, not anxious
It makes us positive not neurotic
It positions our minds to see what we have and how far we come

All these are ingredients for a healthy mind but more than that, it’s easier to chart a course forward because now, we see.

What are you grateful for?
