You might think that gratitude comes naturally. You imagine yourself walking through life smelling the roses, counting your blessings, like some sort of doe-eyed Disney character. But in reality, gratitude is an uphill battle for most of us.
We all face hardships and professional challenges, however, being grateful towards colleagues, even for the little things, generates positivity and builds long-lasting relationships. A simple offer for a coffee to check-in or a colleague helping meet a deadline, every act of gratitude has a multiplier effect at the workplace. When you are grateful, success for the organization and yourself, is more likely.
