“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.” —Melody Beattie

Being grateful each day is an integral part of the journey to abundance. In much of what I have read, making gratitude a part of your daily routine helps to move towards freedom in all areas of our lives.

Rhonda Byrne in The Secret talks about spending the time when you wake up saying thank you for all the things you are grateful for in your life, she and her team made giving thanks a daily practice. I love where Rhonda talks about really getting into the feeling and is saying Thank as she place one foot on the ground and You with the other.

William Wattles in the Science of Getting Rich states:

“There is a Law of Gratitude, and if you are to get the results you seek, it is absolutely necessary that you observe this law.”

Rebecca Fine on her Practical Genius Course based on the Science of Getting Rich, talks about three levels of Gratitude, also using the term Thank and Grow Rich:

Level 1 is circumstantial gratitude, where we say thank you when things go our way
or we get something we want.
Level 2 is in spite of gratitude, where we feel, I don’t like this, but I’m choosing to be
grateful anyway.
Level 3 is the highest level of gratitude, where we live in a continual state of thankfulness,
seeing the good (Truth) in everything and everyone continuously conscious of
the flow of that power.

This last level I believe is also where we feel that state of bliss, or as Hale Dwoskin from the Sedona Method says a state of hootlessness.
