Very early in the book, the author raises her flag that flutters in the breeze throughout the book in different forms. "Gratitude is power. Its power can transform your life and requires only a single step. You must focus on all the things that are right in your life....Find the gratitude in everyday things and you'll begin to experience a transformation of spirit."Others, including myself have put it differently, but it comes down to the something: `Thought is powerful. You become what you think most of the time'The author also points out that we live in a world of abundance. It is up to the individual to share in it. But the individual can only do so if the individual becomes aware of the abundance. If instead he is only aware of scarcity and negativity, well, those are the reward he will receive for his labor.The book also beseeches (my words) the reader to be grateful for what you have as that is one of the tenets of developing an attitude of gratitude. And stop worrying because worrying focuses your energy on negatives, because, as stated earlier, you become what you focus your energy on. In the words of the author, "Power flows to the area where you focus your attention."The author reminds us that life deals us good and bad moments and we should be grateful for the experiences. The good we should accept with gratitude. The bad provides us with an opportunity to see what lessons we can learn from it. How we can use it to our benefit.The author says, "You have the power to choose your attitude. As an example, the author tells us that in her gratitude prayer she is thankful and grateful for so many simple things such as Friends, Family, Music, Good food, Bright color, even rainy days.It was a pleasure to review What is Gratitude?- How to Attain an Attitude of Gratitude?By D.
