Heidi Grant Halvorson has a helpful and practical tip to not make gratitude about us. This tip appeared in HBR Management Tip of the Day. You can subscribe here to get their daily tips.

Gratitude, by its very definition, must be other centered. If it’s about us, it becomes arrogance and pride. Wonderful words, Steverino.
Thanks so much Dayle! There are so many personal benefits to cultivating gratitude and with our bent to be self-focused, it is easy to forget that gratitude can be outward, others focused. What a great opportunity to give #positivefeedback! You do that so beautifully!
