Set alarms, put sticky notes in your room or on a mirror, pair with another task you already do. I downloaded Gratitude Garden, which has been a big help! I write down at least three things in grateful for each day, answer a thought-provoking question (ex: what is a memory you have that reminds you of your innocence), and praise\/thank myself for one thing. I might not be explaining it will but it&#8217;s a really great app and reminds me to stay grateful. I think that once your brain or whatever gets more familiar with practicing gratitude, it will start noticing it without you even trying. So for a while, you will have to put in effort, and it might feel like you&#8217;re only practicing gratitude when you open that app or when you look at that sticky note on the mirror, but eventually, I think you&#8217;ll start to automatically start noticing it without even trying. I hope that makes sense! I&#8217;m still trying to practice this myself. Oh also, don&#8217;t only look for big things to be grateful for. Be grateful for the way the sun hits your skin, or how beautiful a colorful building looks, or even the fact that you didn&#8217;t wake up with a sore throat haha. This will help you maintain being grateful. \u263a\ufe0f\ud83d\udc9b You&#8217;ve got this!<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"thefa-test2 thefa-entity-placement\" id=\"thefa-1872138056\"><div id=\"thefa-1795197984\"><style>.thefa-test2 {margin-bottom: 24px;}<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"banner-content-position light-viol\">\r\n<div class=\"banner-text max400\">Your new life awaits<\/div>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/start.thefabulous.co\/onboarding\/fabulous-initial?utm_source=community-qa&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=afterfirstquestionoranswer-purple-achievegoals\" class=\"banner-cta red w-inline-block\">\r\n<div>Start today<\/div><\/a>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div  class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Savannah O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think the key to staying constantly grateful, is to practice mindfulness throughout your day. Stay mindful of your blessings. Survey your immediate surroundings and you will surely find something to be grateful for. Consider your internal landscape and ask yourself questions. You can find gratitude for  any emotional, mental and spiritual healing no matter how miniscule the progress. Consider people that you&#8217;re in relationship with, look for reasons to be thankful for their presence in your life. Be grateful for your life&#8217;s journey. Do this and you will cultivate  constant gratitude.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Davina S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">We&#8217;re humans, we&#8217;re never constantly anything. Change is inevitable \ud83d\ude0c<br \/>\nPractice being grateful daily, and you&#8217;ll notice more things to be grateful for.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Nada B.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">How can I stay constantly grateful, no matter what?<\/p>\n<p>Gratitude isn\u2019t just a fleeting feeling I get when things are going well. It\u2019s a way of life \u2014 a lens I choose to see the world through, a key that helps me live in peace even when I\u2019m tired, helps me find calm even when I\u2019m lost, and see light even in dark times. To truly live with this kind of gratitude, I have to work on myself \u2014 consciously and consistently.<\/p>\n<p>1. I remind myself that gratitude is a conscious decision, not just a spontaneous feeling<\/p>\n<p>I always need to remember that gratitude doesn\u2019t fall from the sky. It\u2019s not something I just \u201cfeel\u201d \u2014 it\u2019s a choice I make every time I wake up. I can wake up and focus on how tired or overwhelmed I feel, or I can wake up and say: \u201cAlhamdulillah, I\u2019m still alive. I can make something out of today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I choose to see the blessings before I see the problems. I choose to focus on light, not darkness. And that choice needs to be renewed daily.<\/p>\n<p>2. Every night, I write down three things I\u2019m grateful for<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s simple. Before I sleep, I jot down 3 things I\u2019m thankful for in a little notebook. Even if the day was super hard, there\u2019s always something: the fact that I made it through, the sound of a bird, a warm cup of coffee, or laughing with my sister.<\/p>\n<p>By doing this, I train my brain to focus on the positive and pull myself out of the habit of complaining.<\/p>\n<p>3. I live in the moment so I can actually notice my blessings<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, I\u2019m not grateful simply because I\u2019m stuck in the past or worried about the future. I\u2019m overthinking, anxious, stressed. But blessings are here \u2014 right now \u2014 in the present. When I slow down, I start noticing the details I used to ignore: the sunlight on my hand, the smell of bread baking, the sparkle in a child\u2019s eyes.<\/p>\n<p>I train myself to pause, even for five minutes, close my eyes, breathe, and say: \u201cI\u2019m here. Right now. Alhamdulillah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>4. I remember that others dream of having the life I already live<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s always someone out there who wishes they had what I take for granted \u2014 a roof over my head, good health, the ability to walk, food to eat, family, even the luxury of venting to someone when I\u2019m upset. That\u2019s a privilege.<\/p>\n<p>Comparisons can be dangerous, but sometimes they wake me up. They remind me that nothing I have is guaranteed \u2014 it\u2019s all a gift.<\/p>\n<p>5. I connect gratitude to Allah \u2014 not just to things<\/p>\n<p>To be truly and constantly grateful, I have to tie gratitude to trust in Allah. I need to be grateful even for the hardships, and say: \u201cMy Lord knows best. This is part of His plan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The more I learn about Allah, the more I trust Him. And that trust leads to acceptance \u2014 and acceptance is the highest form of gratitude. I can be tired, lost, or unsure, and still say: \u201cYa Rabb, thank You for Your mercy, even in what I don\u2019t yet understand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>6. I catch myself whenever I start complaining<\/p>\n<p>When I catch myself about to complain, I pause and ask: \u201cWhat can I be grateful for right now?\u201d<br \/>\nExamples:<\/p>\n<p>If I feel like I hate studying, I say: \u201cAlhamdulillah, I have access to education. Others wish they could learn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If I\u2019m tired from work, I say: \u201cAlhamdulillah, I\u2019m able to work, to be useful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If I\u2019m sick, I say: \u201cAlhamdulillah, my body is still fighting. I have access to medicine. There\u2019s hope for healing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That simple question shifts my entire mindset.<\/p>\n<p>7. I share gratitude with others<\/p>\n<p>Gratitude grows when I share it. When I thank someone sincerely, when I post something just to say Alhamdulillah, when I express joy over a small thing, when I make du\u2018a for someone \u2014 even when I simply smile at a stranger \u2014 I\u2019m spreading light.<\/p>\n<p>Gratitude isn\u2019t just internal \u2014 it\u2019s a force that can change someone else\u2019s day too.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>In the end, I know I\u2019m human. I\u2019ll forget. I\u2019ll get overwhelmed. I\u2019ll cry. I\u2019ll fall into negativity. But I want to be someone who comes back to gratitude, again and again.<br \/>\nI want to be someone who fights the darkness with even the smallest spark that says: \u201cAlhamdulillah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t need to be perfect. I need to be sincere. And I want gratitude to be my path to peace \u2014 not just a fleeting emotion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYa Allah, teach me to see the beauty of Your blessings \u2014 even in the middle of exhaustion \u2014 and help me live a life of gratitude, because You are my Lord, and that\u2019s enough.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Evan E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Constant gratefulness is attainable but I wouldn&#8217;t pressure yourself into feeling it. Start by taking time outs, to reflect on the day or week and pick out things you&#8217;re simply glad happened. Think about why and what about that thing you appreciated most. The more you do things like that the more likely you&#8217;ll find yourself doing it automatically.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Priyanka F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It&#8217;s easy, whenever I see my bed my room my home someone put lots of efforts in making it.. so I am saying thanks to all those people who actually does this for us.
