Gratitude is a personal practice that takes place internally. It can retrain your brain away from negativity and make you more aware of the good around you. So how can we take gratitude and give it an exponential effect? One way to make it active is by sending thank-you notes.

I often think about sending thank-you notes but rarely make the time for it. However, I believe that when the world develops in one direction, the opposite is also true. We are becoming an electronically-based world, which is why people, more than ever, treasure handwritten notes. Once you get in the habit of spreading thanks to people in your past, present, and future, you'll become more joyful.

To dive deeper into the idea of spreading thanks, I've brought on change agent, author, and speaker Elena Anguita. In 2017, she launched the Spread Thanks revolution, a movement to encourage personal gratefulness through the sending of daily thank you notes. Her enthusiasm and professionalism are putting this simple, yet transformational practice on the map as more and more people are creating miracles in their lives through gratitude.

To learn how to develop your own practice of daily thank-you notes, download this episode now.
