Michelle,
It doesn't have to be either/or. I think you can completely believe $1 million is a small amount while simultaneously be grateful for every dollar or Franc you receive.
You can have full expectation of it while being grateful for it because
Gratitude is just a part of your way of being.
It would be quite terrible if you had sacrifice your gratitude in order to make the law of attraction work for you but I don' think it's necessary.

On a side note, whenever you think you need to sacrifice one thing in order to gain another, it is often the case that you are stuck in either/or thinking. If you engage in both/and thinking you can transcend the dichotomy and get both things that you want.
For example, you might want to ask yourself the question: How can I believe that X Francs is a normal amount of money while simultaneously feeling grateful for every Franc that I receive? Keep searching until you find an answer that allows you to have both.
