With all
the horrible news coming at us at every angle, it's difficult not to get caught
up in a tailspin of negative thoughts. Be kind to yourself and those in your
life by taking the opportunity each and every day to latch onto the positives
in your life with gratitude.
Daily journal writing can set the tone for a day of gratitude and abundance. Don't think you have anything to write out, think again. Concerned your writing won't flow, don't worry. Your journal writing is for your eyes only.
Start your journal session with at least three positive aspects of your life. Write about what makes each one so wonderful and how you are grateful for each, no matter how small or big.

For every small blessing turns into a chock full day of gratitude?

ReplyDeleteI keep a journal on and off. It really gets words flowing because you know it's just your thoughts and no one will see them.
I agree...it's nice being safe in one's own words.
DeleteGreat advice, Donna! Thanks you. I'm grateful for you:)
ReplyDeleteOops...thank you
DeleteYou've brightened my day! I am grateful for you too! :)
DeleteExcellent advice, Donna. I used to keep a journal but haven't in a long time. Maybe I should start again. Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteI find that journaling clears my head! Snowed in at home in New York - not a bad thing! Have a wonderful weekend!
DeleteDifficult to be anything but positive when you are grateful.
ReplyDeleteAmen! Well said!
DeleteI think Alex hit the nail on the head there!
ReplyDeleteMost definitely!
DeleteI always feel so much better if I start with positives in my journal. And I often find that I've forgotten the negatives when I do.
ReplyDeleteThis is just what I needed to read today. :)
