More than a Teleseminar
Great-fullness as a habitual way of being is not created by attending a monthly teleseminar. It is accomplished by practicing what you’re learning. That’s why A Course in Gratitude will offer Personal Transformational Tools in the form of “Daily Practices.” The “Daily Practices” are simple and fun actions to do as many times a day as you remember to. Remembering will become easier until it becomes second nature. The reward will be a life of more joyfulness!
