We all have not-so-good days. We wake up with a to-do list that somehow never gets accomplished, we rush out of the house to a job that we may not love (or even like), only to turn around eight hours later to rush home and attend to our personal lives. And that's a whole other story.
It's times like these that it may help to have a gratitude journal. You may have heard of it, or it may even sound corny. But after a rough day, all it takes is one minute to grab a pen and a piece of paper and jot down at least 3 things you were grateful for on that day.
Personally, I love blank books. Can't wait to fill them with my thoughts, sketches, and quotes. Usually, I spend way too much time in the aisles of bargain department stores looking for marked down, leather-bound journals. But these Floral Spiral Notebooks by See Jane Work are simple, but colorful and reflect nature (just like I like it). The best part - they're eco-friendly! There's a whole line of environmentally conscious goodies on their website. I like the clipboards, too.
For those of you that are interested (why wouldn't you be?!), I sell handmade cards on Etsy. You can check them out here. But this isn't a shameless plug. I support my fellow crafters and artisans, and I absolutely adore these blank notebooks by Jennifer Eng. You should definitely check out her Etsy site, Jengs Shop.
And if you want to share 3 things that you're grateful for, shoot me an email with your name and hometown, and I'll post them. Have a great weekend :-)
