на которые ты не обращал внимания раньше. (с)

Be grateful for bad things in your life so they have opened your eyes for good things you haven't paid attention.

[1way_to_english]

so - поэтому, сюда не годится.
paу attention - требует предлога (НА)

[golovach_igor]

Be grateful for bad things in life, because they opened your eyes to good things you didn't notice before.

[1way_to_english]

because - правильно, но звучит проще оригинала,
notice - так вы упростили себе задачу, вся интересность была в предлоге).

[golovach_igor]

Тогда - "Be grateful for bad things in life, because they opened your eyes to good things you didn't pay attention to before" :)

[yasenp]

Be grateful for bad things in your life, because they opened your eyes to good things that you previously hadn't paid attention at.

[1way_to_english]

because - звучит проще оригинала,
previously - звучит слишком книжно)

Ну еще такой вариант приходит в голову:
Be grateful for bad things in your life, for they opened your eyes to good things that you hadn't paid attention at before.

[1way_to_english]

кстати,
hadn't paid attention at - паст перфекта здесь не будет,
это типичная ошибка, завтра разберу.

и здесь другой предлог:
If you bring something to someone's attention or draw their attention to it, you tell them about it or make them notice it.
If we don't keep bringing this to the attention of the people, nothing will be done...

If you pay attention to someone, you watch them, listen to them, or take notice of them. If you pay no attention to someone, you behave as if you are not aware of them or as if they are not important.
