ruricSo to combat the general feelings that we're rapidly heading into he'll in a handbasket I'm attempting December's 31 days of gratitude challenge.
Pretty simple rules:
Commit to writing in a gratitude journal daily for 31 days in December. Just 5-10 minutes each day listing what you're thankful for can transform your mindset, improve relationships, and boost happiness. No special skills needed — just a notebook and willingness to appreciate life.
* Write Daily: spend 5-10 minutes writing 3-5 things you're grateful for each day.
* Be Specific: instead of "I'm grateful for my family," write "I'm grateful for my sister's encouraging text today."
* Feel It: don't just list items - truly connect with the feeling of gratitude as you write.
* Mix It Up: include big things and small moments, people, experiences, and personal qualities.
* By hand: write it in a dedicated journal or on a piece of paper by hand. The physical act of writing is important here.
