Having an attitude of gratitude can help an individual, especially younger individuals and those early in their careers, to maximize their potential.
There was a cartoon in a national magazine several years ago that depicted a man with a clipboard talking to two parents of a child sitting at a desk who had apparently just completed a test. The man with the clipboard said: “I have some good news and I have some bad news. Your son’s test shows he is very intelligent, but it also indicates he will not learn to write thank-you notes and, therefore, he won’t amount to much.” There’s wisdom in that cartoon.
