11/18/18 - Living with gratitude

"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough."

- Oprah Winfrey

Since I was a child, Thanksgiving has been my favorite holiday. As the years have progressed some of the reasons have changed, but fundamentally they have remained the same. One of the aspects that I really appreciate about Thanksgiving is that it lacks commercialism. It is about giving, rather than receiving. It is about coming together with friends and family, to reminisce about the year and to bond over the many things we are thankful for. It is about having gratitude.

Living with gratitude allows you the focus to reflect on your surroundings and appreciate the life you've created, but more powerfully, it allows you to observe how it makes you feel. In having gratitude, it allows you to acknowledge your responsibility to give and provides you with the awareness of how one simple act of giving can change the direction of someone else's path. Having gratitude forces you to share that feeling with a friend, a family member, a client, or even a stranger.

My wife Megan and I are grateful. We appreciate you and your clients' trust. We appreciate your friendship and support, and we wish you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving!

Best,
