It's easy to lose sight of what we have when we are focused on a goal or a problem. This obsessive state of focus works like tunnel vision, blocking out the abundance of other positive parts of our lives. However, if we are to consider all parts of our lives, we often will find we are much more blessed than we realize.
Below is a list of 20 Gratefulness Prompts to consider daily that will help remind you of all the bounty that exists in our lives. Some parts of this list may be missing for you, but often I find when you count out what is actually true, the positives outweigh the negatives.
Begin by saying, "I am grateful for..'"
1. My devoted partner
2. My loving family
3. Living in a nice home or apartment
4. A job that pays enough
5. My animal(s)
