It’s easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of things that are happening in our lives. The stress of catching a ride to work, dealing with a surly spouse, or even just coming up with your family's meal plan can take its toll.

Unfortunately, all these can lead to complaining, worrying, and completely taking for granted all the blessings we do have. We forget to rise above the challenges, and start to see the glass as half empty instead of half full.

Admittedly, it does take a bit of work to embrace a more grateful approach toward life. Which is why we've come up with this helpful guide that will inspire you to practice an attitude of gratitude. Try these four easy steps on for size and you may very well be surprised to realize that not only is the glass half full, it is actually filled with sparkling, bubbly champagne!
