It is virtually impossible to be grateful and unhappy at the same time. Seek to inject this type of happiness into your daily life. 

Bad things happen every day, and yet some people are more resilient. This is because of gratitude and the power it has to eliminate negative thoughts. 

Gratitude has been shown to create a host of physical and psychological benefits. Those aren’t important; rather, it’s more important to understand how to show daily gratitude. 

You can do this by complimenting others, seeking perspective, asking what you can learn from setbacks or failures, and making a commitment to not complain or give voice to your negative thoughts.
