How Can Five Daily Gratitudes Increase Your Happiness?

Specifically, we have shown that gratitude is positively related to such critical outcomes as life satisfaction, vitality, happiness, self-esteem, optimism, hope, empathy, and willingness to provide emotional and tangible upport for other people, whereas being ungrateful is related to anxiety, depression, envy, materialism, and loneliness" (learn more here).
