Thank You. Can such small words hold life changing
power? Yes! Deborah Norville's groundbreaking and
persuasive book argues that gratitude is the secret key to
unlocking your full life potential. Rooted in science,
presented from a spiritual perspective, Thank You
Power details the surprising life improvements that can
stem from the practice of gratitude. In this
eye-opening book, Norville brings together for the first
time the behavioral and psychological research that prove
what people of faith have long known: giving thanks brings
life blessings. Beginning with those two small words,
thank you, Norville shows how you can be happier
and more resilient, have better relationships, improved
health, and less stress. The list of benefits is
long. You'll exercise more, be more creative, bounce back
more quickly from adversity, have a higher immune response,
live longer, be better liked by others, and have more
creativity in solving problems. Each of these outcomes is
backed up by published research. The key? Gratitude.
It begins with thank you. "The mind-set that
accompanies those words," says Norville, "and the regular
exercise of those words can eliminate the negatives of daily
stress and make you better able to deal with future
difficulties. Those same two words also build a reservoir of
broader thinking that enhances problem solving and keeps you
healthy." After two years of scientific research,
Norville brings it all together with powerful personal
stories of thank you power in action and gives specific
steps for you to cultivate thank you power and put it to
work in your own life.
