Gratitude Journal
I know this is going to sound “Oprahish”, but I’ve been doing a gratitude journal the past several weeks right before I go to bed. It’s amazing after a day of stress, scattered thoughts, and way too many to do’s the kind of clarity I get by doing the journal. I find myself drifting to sleep easier after writing down a page full of things I’m grateful for. Maybe it’s because the gratitude drowns out the mental noise of “stuffitis”.
Here is what I’m grateful for today: IMacs, friends, multi-tasking, hammocks, my kids in hammocks, whoever invented the Burley, tickle-mania, Scooby Snacks, 3-D Ultrasounds, thinking prosperously, living within my means, Leinenkugel’s Honey Weiss, BLT’s, fresh cantaloupe, granola bars, and my incredible wife and two (soon to be three) kids. Yikes.
Good night….
