When they see a glass with water in it, they say the glass is half full. Negative people will see that same glass of water and say it's half empty. If you keep a journal beside your bed and at the end of every day you write a list of all of the things you're thankful for that day, you will sleep much better.
This helps you to remember all of the good things from your day, like the delicious pizza you had for dinner, or that friend who helped you with your school work. Being thankful also helps you get through life's tough times, because you can easily call to mind all of the good things in your life.
So you could simply be thankful in that it is no longer But even had many things to be thankful for. And it is actually more important to be thankful for the blessing you have when times are tough than when they are going well.
Then we'll move on to small items that might seem important, but can often brighten your day. Side note: Some of these items might not apply to your personal situation. So feel free to skip anything that doesn't personally resonate with you. This list can be used at a time like Thanksgiving, when we all stop and think about all the things we should be thankful for. But how about for the rest of the year?
The answer is that by itself it does little. But if it helps inspire you to create your own gratitude list , it can be quite valuable. Gratitude can transform you. It can pull you from the vortex of negativity that is sucking the life out of you and give you a renewed sense of purpose and joy.
One of the best ways to practice gratitude is by journaling. At its simplest form this gratitude journaling is taking time out, every day to think about and write down things that you are grateful for. It can be as simple as writing three things you are grateful for on post-it notes every single day. Or a bit more formal and guided, like using our 90 day gratitude journal.
Simply taking time everyday to think about and write out the things you are grateful for is one of the biggest ways to improve your happiness and overall quality of life. So I highly encourage you to make a habit out of making a habit out of daily gratitude journaling. Spending daily time thinking about gratitude will improve your life in a way few other things can.
So hopefully you can use this thankfulness list as a idea generator for creating your own daily ideas of things you are grateful for. Write them down every day and make it a habit.
