This exercise requires a pen and paper—or another note-taking tool—and follows three simple steps.
- Write down something you’re truly grateful for. If you have time, write down three things.
- Write down a few wins from yesterday. One meaningful win is enough.
- Write three short thank-you letters. Send them with no expectation of response or reciprocity to people who positively influence your life.
Notice the shift.
When you finish, pause. Did the exercise change your state of mind? What feels different now?
