Develop "a gratitude attitude"

Has something made you happy? Tell God about it and thank him for it.

Give thanks for meals silently, or as a family so long as everyone is comfortable with the idea.

Make a habit of counting your blessings. - What went right for you today/yesterday? What makes your life comfortable or even enjoyable?

Learn to pray

Is something bothering you? Tell God about it. Ask him what he thinks about it.
