There is One Simple and Proven Reason Gratitude is the Winning Attitude and how it will affect the Team you are leading RP Members?

X Praise: An Expression of Love http://www.intouch.org/read/magazine/daily-devotions/praise-an-expression-of-love#.Vl2sEuev3ww
God is worthy of praise, but if we’re caught up in the opinion of others, we may forget His is the only one that matters.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
2 Timothy 1:7 for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

You are able to recognize gratitude for something positive as opposed to feeling nothing.

Sir, I think it humbles you. It places things in perspective and lets you know you still have some gas in the tank. Me personally, I'm BIG on saying grace before a meal...no matter where I am. I do it out of family values, out of respect to God, and the fact I believe if I don't say it, I'll choke on my food. Don't ask why on the last one, it's just one of those things. Midway through my deployment things happened, and I asked another team's CPT to say a prayer for a NCO who was hit by an IED. Now I've always believed in God, never had any doubts, but I'll admit that he made the Skins in his image and told them to play on Sundays and I watch them every Sunday. So I don't go to church. After that incident, I was given a bible and I carried it with me, and read some of the verses given to me. Now to this day, I have a retired NCO who was a hellion when he was in, and is saved now, but he sends me bible passages (it used to be nude women and links) and WITHOUT FAIL, I read every one of them. Things have a way of coming back to you, to test your faith, and see are you worthy. Not sure if I'm worthy, but I've been/still am tested and I'm here. So yes, giving thanks to whomever you believe is not a bad thing, and can heal you in the process.
I'll get flack for this, but I believed it when I first came in the Army, and I'll believe it till I'm in my permanent foxhole or hasty fighting position......there is NO such thing as an atheist in battle. When it really hits the fan, either you'll discover God, or God will discover you. If I disrespected anyone I apologize, but that's a belief no one could shake me of.
