One week, I was feeling particularly down and overwhelmed, so I tried a simple gratitude exercise I read about: every night, write down three things you’re grateful for. At first, I struggled to come up with anything beyond the obvious, but as the days went on, I started noticing small things: a good cup of coffee, a kind text from a friend, even just a peaceful moment. After a week, I couldn’t believe the shift—I felt so much happier and more content. The power of gratitude is in its ability to shift your focus from what’s lacking to what’s already good in your life. Try it for a week and watch your mindset change!
