Be Grateful Laquita King

Keeping a journal can be simultaneously one of the most rewarding and one of the most difficult decision to stick to, but it can be done. But why keep a journal? This journal give you the combine benefit of two worlds, a gratitude journal and a prayer journal. Why keep a gratitude journal: I remember reading about sixteen years ago, Oprah started a gratitude journal and, every day, began writing down five things she was grateful for. From fresh flowers to the kindness of a stranger, Oprah says acknowledging these things made her more receptive to the goodness in her life. It changed her life for the better. Keeping gratitude journal helps you to focus on the blessing in your life from a baby smile to a new car. Being grateful can allow you to see all of your blessing. The benefits of gratitude journal are: 1. Lower stress levels. 2. Feel calm at night. 3. Gain a new perspective of what is important to you and what you truly appreciate in your life. 4. By noting what you are grateful for, you will gain clarity on what you want to have more of in your life, and what you can cut from your life. 5. Helps you focus on what really matters. 6. Keeping a gratitude journal helps you learn more about yourself and become more self-aware. 7. Your gratitude journal is a safe zone for your eyes only, so you can write anything you feel without judgment. 8. On days when you feel blue, read back through your gratitude journal to readjust your attitude and remember that you have great people and things in your life.
