With Thanksgiving just passed, answer these questions. How happy are you right now? Are you thankful for everything you have in your life?
When we focus on gratitude instead of grudges, comparisons, and wishful thinking, we live our lives feeling lucky and thankful. Are you holding a grudge against someone? Have you ever had a revenge fantasy? Have you ever scrolled through social media looking at your friends’ perfect lives and all of a sudden you realize that your life isn’t perfect?
Chances are, if everyone put their problems into a great big basket, you would still want your own problems back instead of someone else’s. So many times we forget about all of the wonderful things we have in our lives. I think I have mentioned before that I receive Darren Hardy’s DarrenDaily in my inbox every day. He sent out some gratitude questions that I thought I would pass on to you.
My challenge to you is to write down the answers to the following questions. Then, keep it somewhere you will see it everyday.
Gratitude List:
- Three amazing people in my life are…
- Three great things about my physical body are…
- Three great things about my home and where I live are…
- Three great things about where I work and what I do for a living…
- Three great gifts of unique talent and skill I have been given are…
- Three great gifts of knowledge and experience I have been given are…
- Three ways I have experienced ‘luck’ in my life are…
- Three ways in which my life is wealthy, abundant and prosperous are…
Remember how amazing you are and what a wonderful life you have created for yourself. Focus on you, not others.
