One of the things that is scientifically proven to help people be happier is to focus on gratitude.
Focus on things that you’re grateful for. An easy way to do this is to keep a “gratitude journal.”
At the end of the day write down at least one thing that you’re grateful for. Really commit to doing it.
Here’s why: If you know that at the end of the day you’re going to have to write down one thing, you’re going to be looking for positive things all day long.
That’s going to help you maintain a positive mindset and help you be happier.
I cut and paste my gratitude journal for a year into a word cloud and that was interesting too.
Maintain a gratitude journal and you’ll be happier.
