 Here is something I shared at support group the other night and thought it would be a good post!  This is a way to remind our selves to stay focused during the holiday season!

                             Keep your own "GRATEFUL" front and center in your life!
Good – it is easy to focus on the negative. When a situation occurs that appears negative, ask yourself “What is something good that I might have missed and can take away for myself?"   Reach Out- Help someone else. It can be a family member, a friend or supporting a WLS friend. Not only will you help another person but reaching out makes you feel good.   Attitude – Do you have an attitude of gratitude? Do you ever slow down enough to notice all the blessings in your life? Focus on three things from every day that you are grateful for. Keep a gratitude journal list.   Time – Value your time. Make the most of everyday. Don’t take your time for granted. Fill your days in a meaningful way.   Enthusiasm – Live your life with zest. Being enthusiastic about your day is a powerful way to be grateful.   Fun – When was the last time you had fun? Fun is important in order for you to feel grateful. Regularly schedule some fun.   Unusual – Do you do the same old same old each and every day? Life has many cool things available, so why die the daily death of “I’ve always done it this way before?"   Live full out – Want to feel very grateful this time next year and most days in between? Then live full out. Let it rip!
