It can be so easy for us too ‘be’ negative about ourselves, our situations and see our cup as 'half' empty. This can spiral as thought after thought builds up.⠀
⠀
As an enneagram one (an improver) I am constantly seeing how I can do better and as a result can be a little hard on myself and negative. However the daily practise of asking myself 'what am I thankful for?' provides perspective and stops the ‘spiral’ downwards, as I consider what I have, not what I am missing.⠀
⠀
Why not? At the end of today, grab a piece of paper or type in the notes on your phone, 3 things that you are thankful for. It may not come easy, so persevere and press in.⠀
