Good morning Friend!
We’ve all heard that gratitude makes us happier and healthier.
But coming up with that much-touted gratitude list can seem a bridge too far for our overstimulated, overly exhausted selves.
So when I’m just too overwhelmed to stretch myself to the heights of gratitude, I reach for appreciation instead.
I appreciate the way the light is filtering through the tree outside of my window this morning.
I appreciate the way my kids go out of their way to say goodbye to our dog, Bowie, as they leave for school each morning.
I appreciate the fact that even though I’m a solopreneur, I am supported by some of the coolest, funniest, and smartest people, all of whom help me push my ideas out to the world. (Ahem, shout-out to Macayla, Elizabeth, Luz, and Paul.)
Your thought experiment this week is to simply appreciate.
What can you appreciate right this second?
Shine on, my friend.
B
