The biggest hindrance to gratefulness is your attitude. My attitude was not good yesterday and even though I realized it and readily acknowledged it, I found myself in the same place today. So what do I think is driving this attitude? I think for me it is selfishness. I would rather be doing something other than the task at hand.
Now that I recognize it, how do I fix it? That is where contentment comes in. Contentment is a choice. I need to chose to be content with what I am having to do at any given moment. Now contentment is very different from resignation. Resignation is I am stuck here, while contentment is I have chosen to be here. Recognizing a problem is half the battle. I will have to get back to you on the solution. Contemplation time.
