I just look around me, even when everything is terrible I am alive,I have a family and I have food and a house. Just remember the small things that you can’t live without ;)

I try to think about it every day in order to appreciate life more than yesterday a bit. I believe that it will eventually help me to put myself at ease and to live today to the fullest.

Think about all the things you have like food,clothes and a roof over your head. To you that may seem pretty basic but to someone else it’s a privilege that fact you are alive to even use all these things should be a good enough reason for you to be grateful everyday.

I make lists. In the evening in a little notebook. I number them and try to reach a 1.000 over the long run. It helps to look back into your Day and notice the small things. If you are religious you can also say thanks if something good happens. A good Read about Thankfulness is Ann Voskamp.

I usually start by think about my whole day from the point i opened my eyes in the morning to the point of present and if there is not much positive in my day (it can sometimes happen) i am grateful for the tinyest things like “I am grateful for the welcoming and cozy warmth of my bed sheets and blankets when i woke up” or “I am grateful for the nice breeze that filled my lungs and energized me for the whole day” there is always something be thoughtful and mindful wishing you the best of luck<33

I just sit in my comfy zone wherever that may be and reflect upon what makes me feel happy and the things that enrich my life. Then I just don’t them down in my journal that I have specifically for my grateful a. It really only takes a few min of my time and has made me overall feel better.

It’s like driving a car, as a new driver you have to be aware of everything. As you get more experienced the driving with the music, window open etc etc becomes more natural. It’s the same with gratitude. You have to develop it in your regular routine, then you don’t need to be reminded, because it sticks. If that makes sense 🌈

Some days it’s hard to think of things beyond my family and friends and well everything. My mind thinks of so many things that I can only think, I’m grateful for everything. Even the red light that is new and doesn’t make sense. Well, can’t control it, so you got me this time and next time I will figure out how to get through you. I’m grateful for the challenge. So, I try to focus

I often take pictures. When I look at them, I reflect on the moment in time I took the picture, and take the time and be thankful for the relationship I have with whatever I photograph!
