Another week of gratitude challenge, and this week has an OPEN theme. I am really grateful for this theme because the past few weeks have been tough to explain. Things are great and making progress on my goals. I haven’t not been grateful but it also hasn’t been a priority. I have a gratitude book that I am not very consistent with. It’s kind of like working out. When I’m consistent I feel the benefits, but I JUST DON’T do it. (This is something I am working on.)
The Challenge
Each week has a different theme about something to be grateful for or bring gratitude towards. This is NOT my idea. I got my idea and several themes from Local Adventurer. The goal has always been to write these weekly, but sometimes it hasn’t always worked out that way. But I still have 40 more weeks, so there’s still time.
Gratitude Challenge – Open
This week is almost like a reset for me. Time to refocus on this challenge and make it more of a priority. To be honest, some of the prompts might change. I’m not quite sure, but it’s definitely a thought.
My gratitude journal will also be going to work with me daily. There was a time that I set an alarm at 11a, and wrote down 1 thing I was grateful for. Then I switched back to my gratitude journal, and that habit did too. I have added a gratitude journal to Hello Habit for me to check out every day.
A positive that has come from this gratitude challenge is the words gratitude or grateful don’t stress me out as much. I don’t remember where I read this but instead of trying to think of one thing to write down, think “I get….” This has been a game-changer for me. What is something I get to do or I got to do.
Moving Forward
Each Thursday by 1pm a blog post will go live with my thoughts about that prompt.
Next week’s prompt is Snack/ Meal/ Beverage.
