Yesterday was another great day. Spent time with people I love. Walked my dog. Minnesota Vikings won. Unseasonably warm late fall day (in fact forecast highs for the next few days is in the mid-60s). There is so much to be to be grateful for.
As we come to the end of week two of the gratitude challenge take a moment to think about the various challenges:
- No Complaining
- Notice the little things
- Smile all-day
- Pay it forward
- Cherished Memories
- Be Present and Mindful all day
- Who are you grateful for
- Resist the urge to consume – Give instead
- Who has made an impact on your life
- Get out in nature
- Veterans Day Gratitude
- Wild Card Day
What if each day, you incorporated three of these? This challenge requires you to perform the challenge, reflect on the impact, and record your thoughts.
The challenge this week includes the daily challenge AND at least three past challenges. In future posts, I will write about how this challenge impacts me. The daily challenge calms my mind and directs my attention.
The challenge today requires a shift in your words. instead of asking people “How are you?” Ask “What is good today?” The first question can be answered with one word. The second question requires more consideration and may lead to an interesting conversation. Perhaps the words we use matter.
