    Practicing gratitude keeps me centered and motivated to work because it reassures myself that I am grateful for everything happening in my life and it gives myself a purpose and reason to push myself everyday. Gratitude helps me work for a better world because it shows me what this world has given me to succeed and gives me a motive to try and make the world better by preserving its natural resources and choosing eco friendly alternatives.
