Focusing on gratitude is an easy way to feel good almost immediately. Placing our attention on what we’re grateful for isn’t designed to distract us from hardship or suffering. It’s like mental training that requires practice. Cognitive science confirms that the neural pathways we use most, establish a groove that assures their continued use in the future. That means whatever we regularly fix our attention on trains our brains. There’s one thing we can focus on that’s highly effective at creating positive, pleasant experiences. That thing is…

Gratitude.
