Twenty Day Challenge - Day 7, "Gratitude Practice"

Don Meyer thought these values improved team culture:

- Passion

- Unity

- Servant Leadership 

- Humility ("Thinking less about yourself doesn't mean thinking less of yourself.")

- Thankfulness (Gratitude) 

In our busy world, we may forget to appreciate those around us, family, friends, coworkers. 

In "Up the Organization" by Robert Townsend, one chapter is a single sentence, "Thanks is the cheapest form of compensation." 

Gratitude improves people's happiness. Professor Shawn Achor recommends the 21-day gratitude challenge. Each night before going to sleep, write down three things that we're grateful for. At the end of the 21-days review all those things about which we expressed gratitude. 

"Want what you have." Winning another sectional championship is awesome." Enjoy playing the game and continued success from playing is the natural progression.
