Episode 100 - Magic of Gratitude

In this episode, we talk about the power of gratitude. Sometimes, our ego gets in the way, and it is difficult to feel gratitude. We feel like saying, “look what I did.” Often that comes from more profound insecurity, and we are expressing the need to get praised or recognized to quiet fears of inadequacy. Sometimes we run with a feeling of entitlement. The world, God, somebody owes us an easy time in life, and it is our due to having life flow smoothly. The truth is that no one owes us anything. We are entitled to nothing. If we choose to practice gratitude, genuine visceral gratitude where we feel it in our bones, we experience much greater happiness. Humility is the companion virtue of gratitude.
