Choosing Thankfulness

Of course there is no formula for success except perhaps an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings.
Arthur Rubinstein

In a "Leadership Moment: Do People Thank You Enough?", on the New Equilibrium website, Dr. Stephen Payne addresses how to fully engage people in a place where "people just show up."

"The attitude of gratitude is devastatingly effective.  As I transitioned into my new leadership job, I simply thanked people for what they're currently doing and how they will help me come on board.
  The results are absolutely stunning.  After a few months, they behave like we've been together for a year...."

"Choosing thankfulness shows great leadership.  There's an abundance of reasons to complain about things and set a negative spiritual direction.  Rooting our conversations in thanksgiving shows people we know it's
'the set of the soul' that counts most."
