List 10 Things I am Grateful For Each Day

“This tip is easy to adjust as you have time and energy for it. On days that you’re really down, a short list of gratitudes is enough to still make a difference. You can say, write or think these gratitudes, and they can be as simple or as big as you want them to be. In the beginning of this exercise, listing 10 gratitudes felt like a lot, but the longer I continued this habit, the easier it became.”

“I am tired and sad and confused and sometimes angry. I feel stuck and overwhelmed and alone and like I am barely keeping my head above water. Still, every night before bed, I get out my gratitude journal and list 10 things I am grateful for. Some nights I struggle to get past 3 but push on 'til there are 10. Some nights it's easy to list 10 and to keep going.”
