Even on bad days, it's still really important to look for things to be grateful for
In fact, it's even more important than ever!
So if gratitude is so great...why's it so hard to do on those tough days?
It's because most people are grateful for the wrong things

Getting a raise
Your partner
Nice weather

Things like breath, your body, your mind, your home
On the rough days, read over the list to give your gratitude a boost

4. Make gratitude a habit
I used to wake up every day with the thought: "Ugh I don't want to get out of bed, I hate this day already"
Now, I wake up and right away say "I'm so grateful to be awake!"
The tone you use on yourself makes ALL the difference

5. Schedule gratitude into your day
Set aside a few minutes each day to be grateful
It can be with morning pages or evening pages
I like to write mine in the morning so I start my day off right
Doing this will help you make gratitude a habit
