Seven Principles for Cultivating Gratitude

By Gregg Krech

Gratitude is independent of one's objective life circumstances;
Gratitude is a function of attention;
Entitlement makes gratitude impossible;
When we continue to receive something on a regular basis, we typically begin to take it for granted;
Our deepest sense of gratitude comes through grace -- the awareness that we have not earned, nor do we deserve what we have been given;
Gratitude can be cultivated through sincere self-reflection; and
The expression of gratitude (through words and deeds) has the affect of heightening our personal experience of gratitude.
