How to Start
Use a simple notebook. Each day, write down a few things you’re grateful for — big or small. It might be achieving a goal, seeing a rainbow, or enjoying time with a friend.
By writing it down, you make gratitude tangible, helping your brain focus on what’s good — and naturally, you’ll feel happier and more content.
Your Challenge
Each day, jot down 3–5 things you’re grateful for.
Do this for 3 weeks, then challenge yourself to keep going.
Because once you start noticing the good, you’ll find it everywhere. 🌟
COMMIT to GRIT
Committing to Grit is committing to your success. Working hard on something day after day, month after month, or year after year until you've reached your goal.
