Giving Thanks
Gratitude posts will flood feeds this Thanksgiving weekend. Most will look like performance, the need to have your gratitude seen. But what if we moved past performance to practice? Chris MacLeod's book, Beating the Odds, offers a simple but powerful approach: write down three things you're grateful for every morning. Not occasionally. Every day.
What does it take to make gratitude a practice, not a performance?
"Each of us has the personal challenge to focus and work as hard on our attitudes as on anything else. It is not an occasional effort. It must be done with intention at the start of each day and constantly throughout."
