WHY does giving thanks give you an edge?

It's the day after Thanskgiving and I'm a little late on talking about Giving Thanks, but am I? There is One Simple and Proven Reason Gratitude is the Winning Attitude and how it will affect the Team you are leading RP Members? How important is it toward your goal as a leader and the Team you are building to give thanks?

Positive emotions like gratitude help us become more resilient. There are at least three ways gratitude encourages resilience. And these apply to athletes, entrepreneurs, parents, leaders … anyone.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs great thread, well I like to give back. I feel I am blessed by grace and heaven above. I was visiting my mother-in-law and chipped in to help buy sodas/water for the community Thanksgiving dinner. Just surprising my in-laws and putting a smile on everyone's face made the difference. I always like to help out when I can, and I accumulate a lot of favors. Time to cash in for Christmas.

Giving back or giving a hand makes me feel I'm contributing to something greater than myself

Giving thanks gives us an edge because that is the way God designed us COL Mikel J. Burroughs. Both giving thanks and doing for others what we would like done for ourselves plays forward the blessing of people and has been doing so for millennia.
