I’m grateful to be living at this time in history.
Never before has there been the opportunity to be connected with so many different people and cultures.
Never before has there been an opportunity to succeed without needing a bucket load of money.
Never before has there been the opportunity to succeed by simply being yourself

Yes, the bad economy can be something to be thankful for. Many people are losing their jobs in this downturn. Many are starting businesses because they can’t find regular work. Many of these people are going to find they love running their own business. Sure, it will be difficult for now, but since the chances of getting traditional employment are terrible, they will be able to stick with the mission of building their business. Many of these people will decide to stay with their own business, even when the economy turns and they can return to traditional employment. It may take some a while to realize, but this recession is a blessing to the resourceful.

@Deb, I’m grateful for that one too, very. I still work hard (actually I work harder than I did in the corp world), but I do it on my terms and in the environment where I feel most productive, and I can juggle things around to spend the time I want to with my kid. Huge, huge positive in my life.

I’m grateful for flexibility. I still have to work, but the difference between working the day after Thanksgiving from home, and working the day after Thanksgiving from the office is sleeping in, working in comfy clothes and stopping to make a turkey sandwich whenever I want. I do my best to keep regular business hours, but it’s nice to know I don’t need to.

(and yes, the crummy economy too.)

WOW! You are right; something that is so bad (the economy) has turned out to be a good thing in some ways for some people. I think getting laid off sucks but it is also the motivation that some folks need t get out there and explore and live their dreams to the fullest.

Great list. I am grateful for everything. Sometimes in a fast world with a lot going on people forget to be humble and give thanks to the simple things they have. I try to stay grounded and give thanks.
