Support for Staying Motivated

The purpose of this exercise is not to ignore all the hard stuff or to try to see the world through rose-colored glasses, but simply to acknowledge everything—big and small—that makes your world a better place to live. It can be done at the end of the day or any time you’re feeling down or discouraged, and as with the My Day Replay exercise, can be done on paper or in your head. If you choose to write it out, you can either make copies of this page and leave them by your bed, or buy a blank book/journal to use for this purpose.

Simply, write out (or think about) anything you feel grateful to yourself for, to other people for, or to the forces of the universe for. It might be an advancement you made toward a goal, a kindness someone showed you, your health, living in a democratic country, a smile you got from a stranger today, anything at all that has made your life a little better. If you're not feeling a strong sense of gratitude at this moment, try to imagine what you would feel grateful for if you could, and write that.
