"Start a miracle journal. Everyday write down all the little miracles that I witnessed. Remember all the things that went right, not wrong. "
A cute notebook from the family I nannied this
summer that I write it in.
I started this ten days ago and it already has become a great blessing in my life!
Sure I still have really hard days where I just want it to end, but every night before I go to bed, I write down what good had happened throughout my day.
They can be very general, or even get pretty specific. Some include:
- Going to the temple at 5 am with two friends
- Knowing that my major is the correct choice for me
- Sitting next to friends for a devotional instead of alone
- Waking up on time so I can take a 7:30 quiz
- Talking to my mom for an hour
- Someone taking out the trash for me on a bad day
- Getting a text from a friend I haven't seen in a long time
Even though I have bad days, this really helps me dwell on the good that happens instead of the bad, and really helps me start out the next day on a more positive note.
