What Is Your Brand of Gratefulness?

No matter how you express your gratitude, knowing what brand of gratitude you and the people in your life have will help you understand why someone else may express their appreciation in unique ways.  People with different Life Themes express themselves in different ways; while one person may keep a gratitude journal, another may prefer to use affirmations like "I am grateful for..."  This can also help you to ensure your thankfulness is perceived in the right way by others who see the world differently. Today's episode may help to prevent arguments and miscommunications, so you're sure to be grateful you tuned in.
