Do you think it’s necessary to always write down what we’re grateful for her sometimes just to think about it, or say it out loud?

Writing it means you can look back at it. I like to read them later / throughout my day using a journal and see what I previously was grateful for. I also share it with as many people as I can. I would suggest that to anyone. 🙂

I think there’s some stuff we can think about; but at times We forget about such thoughts and writing it would help us memories or read what we are grateful for. It’s something we can look back at when we don’t think about the good.

Writing things out has a deeper stronger power than just saying things outloud; but when you’re unable to write it out, saying it outloud works, be sure to really feel it

I don’t think we always have to write it down. Sometimes I am grateful in a moment of my day and I want to keep it in that present instant. Like when I’m walking my dog and the weather is nice, or when someone does something for me or I see someone I haven’t in a while and I just sort of bask in it. I don’t always write it down – just keep it in my heart/mind. I write stuff down that I may need to refer back to later to remind me of how lucky I am.

I think writing it down involves more thought and intention. While being grateful throughout the day is helpful, having a ritual or routine if writing it down creates more consistency.

Based on my experience, it is best to write it down as it will be easier for me to review them and make them visible for me when I need to read them again.

I have not been writing it down routinely, in fact I only wrote it once or twice when I first started. I didn’t realize that maybe I should write it down more often in my journal rather than just thinking about it.

Writing is the best, but speaking out loud makes it real too. Tonight, I just thought about it and it gave me a good feeling. A nice idee is to make a happiness/gratefulness jar with tiny notes in them, with statements, situations or tiny ecperiences that made you happy and grateful (I’m making one myself!)

Ik denk dat hard opzeggen dingen echter maakt en geloofwaardiger. Vanochtend zij ik tegen mijzelf dat ik energie heb en dat het een goede dag zou worden. Ik heb heb een goede dag gehad. En ga vanaf morgen tijdens het tandenpoetsen in de avond in de spiegel kijken en zeggen waar ik dankbaar voor ben.

Its usually just enogh to think about and say it out loud. Me and my spouse told eachother what we were greatful for during the day.
