Introduction: The Compounding Effect of Gratitude

Let’s have a conversation about gratitude—through picture quotes. These 41 gratitude picture quotes were carefully chosen and beautifully organized to communicate to you (in a conversation format) the power of gratitude in a fun and easy-to-digest way—which is kind of how gratitude works anyway.

Expressing gratitude is usually a small act and doesn’t usually require any grandiose plans or actions—it’s relatively easy to do, is enjoyable, and leaves you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Gratitude is a, “thank you,” a hug, a kiss, a hand-written letter, a nice text, a journal entry—and positively affects both the giver, the receiver, and more than likely, all of the people they come into contact with after gratitude is expressed.

Many times, gratitude gets overlooked or dismissed when compared to the, “more significant” priorities of the day like replying to emails, working on projects, and going to meetings. But when gratitude is expressed every day, multiple times per day, it has the potential to unleash a powerful compound effect. 

More than the sum of each individual act, gratitude compounded can result in better health, wealth, connections, happiness, and can help alleviate feelings of anxiety, stress, depression, and greed—which are disproportionately HUGE benefits for mostly small acts. It works similarly to eating healthy—eat healthy once and you’ll probably feel kind of good, eat healthy every day, multiple times per day, and you’ll probably feel amazing!

Don’t let the concept of, “warm,” “fuzzy,” and “small” mislead you. These small acts of gratitude can be incredibly powerful.  Backed by some of the most successful people of our time including, Tony Robbins, Oprah Winfrey, Tim Ferriss, and so many more, the opportunity here is simple: make gratitude a more prominent part of your life and watch your life become more prominently fulfilled in amazing ways.

Below, you’ll find our 41 gratitude picture quotes and the conversation that unites them—we hope it finds you well and that you finish feeling ready to make gratitude a more prominent part of your life!  Thanks for reading and Good luck :)

The List: 41 Gratitude Picture Quotes That Will Warm Your Heart (and Inspire your Mind):


Behold! …The power of gratitude:

The power of gratitude.

What else is gratitude good for, you ask?

What Good is Gratitude?

Not only that, but gratitude is the parent virtue…

The parent virtue.

…It also keeps you connected with power.

The connection between gratitude and power.

…And it’s the attitude that hooks us up to our source of supply.

Gratitude is an attitude that hooks us up to our source of supply.

…It is ABSOLUTELY the way to bring more in your life.

Gratitude is absolutely the way to having more in your life.

Oh, but you think you need more before you can be grateful?

If we do not feel grateful for what we already have, what makes us think we'd be happy with more?

Yeah, happiness doesn’t work like that.  This is how happiness works:

Frecerick Keonig Picture Quote

Remember that you are rich when you are content and happy with what you have.

You are rich when you are content and happy with what you have.

…Sure, you can always have more—but you could also always have less.

You can always have more, but you could also have less.

Let’s take a minute to play out a hypothetical situation:

What if you woke up tomorrow with only the things you were grateful for yesterday?

…It’s sad isn’t it?  How we often take the most important things for granted?

We often take for grated the very things that most deserve our gratitude.

That’s why it’s so important to:

Begin each day with a grateful heart.

…And make sure you keep your gratitude prescriptions filled.

Gratitude - Take a dose every morning.

…Because when we do, everything, for a moment, is right in the world.

If we start here, everything, for a moment, is right in the world.

If you feel your daily dose is wearing off, try this:

Gratitude is an essential part of being present.

And if you lose yourself in chaos, take some time to find yourself…

When you lose yourself in chaos, find yourself in the appreciation of life.

…No need to rush.  Genuine appreciation takes time.

Beauty is within everything and everyone, we just have to take time to find it. Humans rush too much, we need to take a break and rest our weary brains and stressed out souls. We need to take time to appreciate everything.

And remember, it’s not about chasing extraordinary moments…

You don't have to chase extraordinary moments to find happiness.

…It’s about opening your eyes to the seemingly insignificant ones.

Open your eyes to gratitude even in the most seemingly insignificant moments.

Yes, you will have bad times.

You will always have bad times.

And no, we don’t always get what we want…

No. We don't always get what we want...

ATTENTION:

Attention!

Remember, your life, no matter how bad you think it is, is someone else’s fairy tale.

Your life, no matter how bad you think it is, is someone else's fairy tale.

Don’t spoil what you already have.

Remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.

Become one who appreciates, rather than one who wants from lack.

Become one who appreciates, rather than one who wants from lack.

And when you think things are bad, when you feel sour and blue, when you start to get mad… you should do what I do…

When you think things are bad, when you feel sour and blue, when you start to get mad... you should do what I do...

…And remember that there’s more to life than feeling sour and blue.

Feeling Blue? 10 Things that matter more.

There is always an avenue for gratitude.

When life is sweet, say thank you and celebrate. And when life is bitter, say thank you and grow.

Become the person who talks about their blessings more than their problems.

Talk about your blessings more than you talk about your problems.

Blessings > Problems.

99 problems... But a blessing ain't one.

…And a person who brings their blessings and gratitude to life!

Appreciation can make a day, even a life.

…Because feeling grateful and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it :(

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.

…We must create the words and live by them in action!

We must live by our words.

Remember, life doesn’t have to be perfect to be perfect.

Life doesn't have to be perfect to be perfect.

…Because happiness comes from within.

A good life is when you smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realize how blessed you are for what you have.

And as you’re finding your way through life, remember this crucial rule:

...Both physically and mentally.

…And at the end of each night, don’t forget to bring your gratitude full circle.

At the end of the night, before you close your eyes...

…Because there are so many things to be thankful for.

Each day I am thankful for...

…And so little time to properly thank them all.

...And the list goes on.

So, if you’re short on time and filled with blessings, remember to keep it simple and be thankful for it all :)

What if today, we were just grateful for everything?
