It’s one of the simplest things you can do, and yet it’s also one of the most powerful. Just two words: thank you.

When you take the time to say thank you, you are not only showing appreciation for what someone has done for you, but you are also reinforcing your own positive attitude.

A gratitude attitude has been scientifically proven to improve mental and physical health, increase resilience in the face of stress, and enhance overall well-being.

The next time someone does something nice for you, don’t forget to say thank you. It might just be the best thing you can do for yourself.
