The Power of Choosing Gratitude | Tye Dutcher | TEDxGrandCanyonUniversity

Every day, we are faced with a choice on how to live out each moment. Choosing gratefulness has the capacity to alter the trajectory of our lives. This can lead us to mental breakthroughs, bring joy, and triumph over our anxiety and depression - we are verified by it.

Tye Dutcher is not your average swimmer. He propelled himself into the USA Paralympic Team after having a phenomenal performance at the 2016 U.S. Paralympic Team Trials. When he’s not serving his country on the National Team, he is serving his community as a Dutch Bros Barista in Phoenix. He is currently training for the 2021 Tokyo Paralympic Games.

The ending really moved me. I believe that he knows he is talking about, he felt a shift when he chose a gratitude mindset and found the scientific evidence to back it up. It meant so much to him to give a talk about it because it’s something he believes in. I hope to be at this level. I’m think it’s going to be a journey but I hope to get there. Can’t wait to see where it takes me!

I am grateful for education in a good setting for learning...
Grateful to have a brain and intelligence that I can use freely and with dignity in the meditations that come to me.

I use 100% of my brain every day and I am thankful to the brain for it's gift(s) that is ultimately accessible with effort and persistence, I am grateful for each moment of full natural consciousness.

Energy is a reality in life, energy is unlimited possibility and intelligence, I am grateful that essentially my brain has energy and creates energy. I appreciate having the buddha eye that looks back on my own earthly eyes that makes me aware of this truth about energy, that takes subtle awareness to see.

I am thankful that my soul creates energy and that there is no limit to the good that is accessible through the heart and mind in proper harmony.


I am grateful that I don't see that energy blocked because ultimately it is part of the whole universe. I appreciate that when using the full capacity of my brain, I am aligned to the clearest energy paths, combining creation of energy from truth with beautiful unblocked uses and pathways of energy.
