17 Inspirational Gratitude Quotes

The power in simple and sincere heart felt thanks is extraordinary; gratitude really is one of the greatest secrets of life. My hope is these gratitude quotes will inspire you as much as they have me to practice more. I know for myself I need reminding every day, of the power of true gratitude.

Practising gratitude is spiritually fulfilling and can change your life for ever. Personally I've always been quick to say thank you but it took me a long time to fully grasp the spiritual significance of true gratitude. Spending some time alone every day to be thankful can change your life.

If you use a journal already, make a daily point of writing 5 things down you are grateful for every day, you'll be amazed the difference it can make to your day, or if you're like me and love your iphone, there's plenty of great gratitude apps out there.
