I tend to flock towards blog posts and articles telling me how to be happier/how to live my life better/how to be fulfilled and fulfill others etc. In one recently, I read this "Everday, write down 25 things you are grateful for...What we focus on the most becomes our experience." This really resonated with me and I want to make it a (hopefully) daily, or as often as possible, practice and share it with you.
* note: 25 obviously was hard for me to keep up with so I'm going with 5!
