Gratitude plays a pivotal role in sustainable living by fostering a mindset of appreciation and mindfulness. When individuals express gratitude for their resources, they are more likely to use them wisely and avoid waste. This appreciation extends to the environment, encouraging recycling, reducing consumption, and supporting eco-friendly products. Gratitude also enhances well-being, reducing the desire for excess and promoting a simpler, more sustainable lifestyle.
Communities prioritizing gratitude cultivate a culture of sustainability where shared resources are valued and preserved. By recognizing the interconnectedness of all life and the finite nature of our planet’s resources, gratitude can inspire more responsible and ethical choices. Ultimately, embracing gratitude helps create a more sustainable future where people’s and the planet’s well-being is prioritized.

A retired Air Force Master Sergeant, Mike used to lay in bed at night and worry about what would happen if his plant closed or found himself without a job. One day his plant closed. Rather than panic and hysteria (OK, maybe a little) Mike found himself carried away on the adventure of his life. Mike started with the best job he ever had working at Home Depot. He spent 8 years working with job seekers at a local workforce center, helping them to find employment. He then started his own company developing courses, writing books and urging others to follow their own paths into the future.
Mike holds a Master of Arts in Adult Education and Training and a Bachelor of Business Management, earned through the University of Phoenix and an AAS degree in Electronics Systems Technology from the Community College of the Air Force. Mike is a member of the Delta Mu Delta Business Honor Society.
