Making A "Reverse" Gratitude List

Today we are privileged to live in the wealthiest and safest time that humanity has experienced. Unfortunately, this is not the case universally across the globe, but for those of who do have the blessing of these comforts it is easy to develop luxury problems – that is, problems that we have the luxury of having. By taking a moment to remind ourselves and list out what we are lucky NOT to have alongside what we also do, we can fortify our mind against entitlement, complaining and scarcity.

Unique and thought provoking. Great tool to reverse luxury problems!

Interesting take on gratitude. Thank you for sharing! 😊

I found this at precisely the right time. I have dental and health problems. I've filled out that list more than e. I do a gratitude list and have encouraged others to do the same. I'm dealing with a luxury problem right now. I'm feeling entitled to what others have. This podcast totally changes my perspective. I truly believe in serendipity. Thanks 😊 for doing this right when I needed it

Making A “Reverse” Gratitude List ...

Thank you 🙏🏽 so much for this refreshing podcast today Tudor. I’ve been practicing gratitude for some time now. I AM dancing💃🏾 this dance of life, and have had much better days ever since!☺️ Although I experience physical disability with pain on a daily basis, I AM grateful that I actually have the ability to feel the pain, as I could be paralyzed without the ability to feel or move any of my limbs. The concept of a “Reverse” gratitude list is the story of my life. Some complain about very trivial things as if they are life-threatening!😂 I AM grateful that I don’t have some of the problems that most people my age have “luxury” of having.

***I AM very grateful for the “luxury” of breathing ... even though it hurts for me to breathe sometimes.
***I AM grateful that I don’t have the “luxury” of going to work every day, because getting up at all is a “luxury” for me ... even though I miss my six-figure salary.
***I AM grateful for the ability to EVER reach my step goal of 4,000 steps daily ... even though I’ve only reached my goal 3 times in the past month, and zero times so far this month!😲
***I AM so grateful that I have the “luxury” of apps on my phone📱... or for that matter, that I have a phone📱 at all ... that can help me track my step count, my pain level, my headaches🤕, my blood sugar, my blood pressure, my caloric intake, and whether or not I’ve had a seizure, a blackout, a fall, etc., because without them, the brain🧠 fog of Fibromyalgia, Polyarthritis, and all the other inflammatory conditions my body endures daily, would make it highly improbable to calculate or keep track of these conditions that my doctors🥼 expect me to report at each visit.
***I AM grateful that I don’t have to wonder where my next meal is coming from, because I have a wonderful husband who sees to it that I have a meal prepared and awaiting my consumption ... even when I attempt to prepare my own and fail, because pain has consumed my ability to continue.
***I AM grateful that before I started listening to your podcast, I didn’t have to search for inspiration to meditate this morning, because my Spirit💫 Guide (my Mom) sent me a song to inspire me to be grateful that not only are better days coming to me ... they’ve already arrived!

I AM that I AM ... and today “that” is so grateful for the arrival of better days. Namasté🙏🏽☺️

How fantastic, thank you.
I was listening to this whilst running a bath so the story about water really resonated. I’ve just taken some time to write a good long list of luxury “problems” - and conversely what these “problems” can actually reveal about all the many things I’m lucky I don’t have.
A great exercise to regain perspective.
Thanks so much 🙏🏻

I’m very thankful that I had the luxury of listening and to your podcast!
😉🙏♥️
