I mean, the sound comes into my eardrums, but I don\u2019t always HEAR and accept the gratitude. I had to learn to stop, make eye contact, feel the gratitude in my body as a physical sensation and say, simply, \u201cthank you.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pay attention to how you handle thanks and gratitude.<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;When someone thanks you, instead of tossing back a quick \u201cno problem,\u201d stop, smile, look into their eyes and say, carefully and from your heart, \u201cit was my pleasure.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>And when someone gives you the \u201cgift\u201d of praise or appreciation<\/strong>, pause, take a deep breath, feel the smile on your face, and say \u201cThank You.\u201d&nbsp;Accept the gift, seeing it through the eyes of the person who chose it, wrapped it, and took the time to deliver it, just for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Show respect for that person who did the giving and honor the emotion that shows up in you as you get thanked.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theexecutivehappinesscoach.com\/files\/2021\/11\/HSOL-200-Movie-Share.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/theexecutivehappinesscoach.com\/files\/2021\/11\/HSOL-200-Movie-Share.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6139\" width=\"381\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theexecutivehappinesscoach.com\/files\/2021\/11\/HSOL-200-Movie-Share.png 271w, https:\/\/theexecutivehappinesscoach.com\/files\/2021\/11\/HSOL-200-Movie-Share-100x56.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 381px) 100vw, 381px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Part 2: Movie Share<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>My favorite movie to evoke gratitude is this indie gem from 2010.<\/strong>&nbsp;It was not a huge commercial success, but it won Sundance awards and my heart.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ls_SKFeJxEg&amp;feature=youtu.be\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">HappyThankYouMorePlease<\/a>.
