“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.”
-Melody Beattie
Start your gratitude journal today. It’s quite possibly the easiest thing you can do to enhance your mood, improve your relationships and evolve your life. All you need is:
-
A dedicated notebook or journal in which to write down each day at least 5 things that you’re grateful for, you appreciate, or love. It could be the weather, a flower, your pet, the smile on a baby, your family…it really doesn’t matter. Do it every day. The more you do it the easier and more powerful it is.
-
A few moments everyday (preferably at the same time so it’s easier to remember.)
-
The commitment to keep up the practice.
-
Read the daily wisdom quotes from Gratitude Twenty Four Seven.
As a reward for this simple, daily practice you will begin to:
-
See more each day that makes you smile.
-
Learn to take yourself less seriously.
-
Feel less stressed.
-
Improve your health.
-
Be more loving.
-
Enjoy life more.
