One of the most powerful thing we can do for ourselves is give thanks. The following exercise is intended to help us find things to be thankful for, even when we do not feel particularly thankful.
Take a piece of paper and a pen. Write down three (or more!) things for which you are thankful.
Feel free to share your list here or just keep it to yourself. No matter what you decide to do, focusing on the good things in your live helps you to keep the positive energy flowing.
"Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever."
~Psalm 107:1
