According to Harvard Education, “the word gratitude is derived from the Latin word gratia, which means grace, graciousness, or gratefulness (depending on the context).”

Why is it important to operate from a place of gratitude as an Entrepreneur?

  • It essential to develop with an internal self-awareness core system which consists of being grateful as this will make your entrepreneurship journey easier going forward as result of focusing on essential and necessary personal goods and needs. Rather than being distracted by things which are not of value.

  • It will help you to focus and appreciate what is good in your life and with your world outlook; in terms of taking more control in how you manage your own destiny. 
  • It will help you to feel less pressured by external sources and social influences (i.e. social media). Also to appreciate that materialistic items do not define, who you are as Entrepreneur. On the contrary, what defines is your greater purpose in life including the social and community value you add.
