Gratitude When Your Life Is Really Hard

Send us a text (Note: we are not able to respond but LOVE to hear from you!!)

013  In this episode, I want you to shift your focus on life and hardships. For so long, I thought I had to make it through these tough times and it would be smooth sailing.  Something will always happen in life. And one day, during a church sermon, I realized I need to find the good things in my life and actually recognize them! 

You don’t have to be wholly grateful or wholly miserable. There can be a balance between having a really hard life (or circumstances) and still having gratitude for things within our lives. 

Ways to feel more grateful:

1. Let there be both, consciously. Good and bad.  
2. Bring it close and bring it small. Today I am grateful for… it doesn’t have to be something large and intangible. 
3. Express it. Write a letter or note and deliver it!
4. Keep a gratitude journal.
