In my lifelong quest to live better several ideas turn up again and again. Reading Daniel H.Pink’s excellent “A Whole New Mind - Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future” reminds me of how important gratitude is to living well. Pink recommends readers make a list as long as your years of things to be grateful for.
