30 Day Gratitude Challenge
Hey peeps so to help me get back to a healthy mindset I decided that I need to change my mindset so I'm going to try this 30 day Gratitude Challenge. I already have a spiral notebook that I purchased probably almost two years ago to use as my prayers/dreams/affirmations notebook so I think I'm just going to use that as my gratitude journal.
I plan to write in my journal daily what I'm grateful for starting today. And I will post on my blog daily for the next 30 days a Gratitude Quote.
I think doing this will help me control the daily frustration I feel regarding my current circumstances. Sometimes in life you are kind of "stuck" in a situation and you want change so bad that the longer you are "stuck" in that situation the more annoyed you get....well that's where I am and that's how I've been feeling for the past...hmmm....two years but it's gotten worse this past year....ANYHOO....enough of that....we are going to focus on WHAT WE CAN CONTROL and that is our attitude!
Let's focus on the great things about life that we have and the great things that we desire and be thankful in advance for those things that we desire. I had decided at the beginning of 2014 to make the next 10 years the best 10 years and I haven't stuck to that plan needless to say ....life has a way of throwing you so many curve balls all at once you get so focused on trying to keep your head above water that you forget what your plans were to have a better existence.
But I'm making a stronger effort now to change my attitude about the circumstances that pops up in my life and focus on the positive. I don't like the way life has caused me to be this "Frustrated Woman" and I am determined to stick to my motto "IT IS WHAT IT IS" and really mean that.

Shit Happens....Whatever Is Supposed To Happen In Life Will Happen In Life....And sometimes there is no rhyme or reason for it.
SO....we have to suck it up buttercups and if you get knocked down by the curve balls of life........PLEASE, PLEASE get back up!

"30 days of gratitude challenge"
Lets develope an attitude of gratitude. The 30 days of gratitude challenge is a very powerful tool to move you to a higher place of gratitude, appreciation, and self awareness. Lets get started shall we...
How it Works
There are several ways you can choose to take on this challenge. The first thing you need to do is commit to 30 days.
The next thing to do is to choose how you will carry out this challenge. The guidelines are this. For 30 days express gratitude. You can do this by writting in your gratitude journal for 30 days, commiting to write down 10 things you are grateful for every day for 30 days.
Say a heartfelt thank you to someone important in your life for 30 days. This can be a new person everyday or you can choose one important person in your life to show gratitude toward for 30 days.
Start an ongoing gratitude list, where you add 5 new things to the list every day for thirty days.
You could choose to send a thank you card to the people that are important in your life. One card for 30 days.
look up a new gratitude quote everyday for 30 days and post them around your work or living area so you can see them. In the end you will have 30 great quotes on gratitude to refer to.
Reciet your favorite gratitude affirmation 3 times a day for 30 days. You will be amazed at the results.
Or come up with your own creative way to supercharge your attitude of gratitude. Just remember whatever you choose, commit to doing it for 30 days.

Why Are You Grateful?
I received the message below in my inbox from Daily Gratitude and it reminded me that I have not been consistent with keeping a gratitude journal. I did it for a few days and then I stopped....but for 2014 I will make it an everyday practice. But not just listing what I'm grateful for each day, I will also include why I'm grateful for those things, as suggested below.
I just wanted to share that with you......2014 is indeed one of the best years of my life.....STAY TUNED!! :-)
"When I started counting my
blessings, my whole life
turned around."
Willie Nelson
In yesterday's message we learned that to bring
about the life we want, we need to think happy,
positive thoughts.
We also learned that the way we can figure out if
we're thinking positive thoughts is by paying
attention to how we feel.
So now, if we do that and realize that we're
actually thinking negatively most of the time,
how do we change it?
I'm glad you asked! The answer comes to us
from famous singer and songwriter Willie
Nelson, who has experienced the good and the
not-so-good of life.
His recommendation is doing a daily gratitude
list. Write down what you're grateful for, and
why. The "why" is very important because it
focuses you on the good that is coming to you
from that person, place or thing that you're
grateful for.
And don't just write, slow down and think about
your gratitudes and how your life is better as a
result of them.
This will start the process of training your mind
to think of good, positive things. And if you
make it a regular practice, you'll get better and
better at thinking positive thoughts.
Willie says it turned his whole life around. What
might it do for you?
All the best,
Wes
