Gratitude - We practice gratitude everyday. Writing down what we are thankful for gives us no end of positivity. We’ve all heard of singing in the shower, but how about trying out a shower of thankfulness? Visualization - Because we journal everyday, we see exactly where we were before and we see exactly where we are going. The road map of our dreams. And this truly puts a smile on our faces. Persistence - pushing through hard times and dealing with the odds that are stacked against you is like a building a muscle. And just like when you’ve had a workout, you feel really great once you’re done. The more you overcome life hardships, the more life doesn’t phase your emotional well being - leaving plenty of headspace for positivityHere is some of the books that was mentioned in the show and have brought us great insights.
