Living a life of gratitude is very important for many reasons. You don't want to be the person that is always complaining and sighing. Whether you want to agree with me or not, there are some things in your life that you can be grateful for. You mustn't have everything in order to be thankful and express some happiness about what you have.
I understand that you may be in a tight spot in your life at the moment. Perhaps your finances are not looking like what you want it to be. You may want to have the wealth that the billionaires possess. But believe me, if you're someone that can't appreciate the little you're getting in life. It's quite difficult to get more.
I'm not of the opinion that you should just be so glad about what you have, and start acting lazy or sloppy as a result. I'm just saying that every once in a while, look at yourself, and be a bit happy for the state that you're in. You may not realize, but so many people have it worst. So many people are hoping to be in your shoes right now. Don't downplay the advantages that you have been fortunate to have.
If you're reading this, that means that you can read. You can't imagine how many people on earth wish that they could read and write. Sometimes because probably things aren't working out as you envisioned them, you forget the times when they did. You have to understand that you're going through a phase, and you'll be at the top, where you want to be, so long as you keep up the work and show some bit of gratitude for the height you've climbed so far.

For an entrepreneur, it could be really tough when your business isn't making the profit you want. In fact, you could be running at a loss, but so many people have turned situations like that to their advantage. It starts with some gratitude. If you take time to reflect on the times when things were good or better, you'll probably get better insight on what you should be doing now to replicate that amazing time. But most people don't think of happy days, they forget them completely. And entirely engross themselves in the gloom they're experiencing at the moment.
I noticed that I've been discussing from the perspective of the entrepreneur who is going through a tough time, and should hope for the best in the future. Let me also talk of the entrepreneur who is having an amazing time in his/her business at the moment. You have all the reasons to be grateful. But some entrepreneurs, don't show gratitude, they're completely insatiable. Even as things are looking good, they are not contended. Their eyes are still stuck in the big future that they see for their business.
That's also a good thing to an extent. What you want as an entrepreneur is a balance. Some gratitude for how far you've come, and some hunger to achieve even more. Don't let the hunger for more accomplishments, make you neglect the good fortune you've been experiencing. If you're extreme with this hunger, you tend to crash, but with some gratitude on one hand, you tend to ascend new heights, and break new grounds.
